    hello, newbie recording audiobook

    not sure what substack is, but could you play it back in substack and record the audio into a DAW like Audacity? rather than export the files. would take a while but faster than re recording.

    Help Recording DI Distorted Guitar Tones

    Mic an Amp? Always much better if you can. DI-ing gives a really crappy EQ to your guitar, put an EQ plug in on your channel before the Virtual Amp. and maybe afterwards too.

    Self-releasing physical media: CDs, USB, tapes, vinyl

    I like your Song 'Gone'. I would Do Bandcamp and streaming. Maybe offer Cassette tapes from Bandcamp. Just copy your own as you receive an order. And make some homemade covers/sleeves? I wouldn't do vinyl unless I could guarantee sales. Don't listen to me though.

    engage play with no cassette?

    Thanks for your replies. i couldn't get it to work. so i ended up putting the loop into a full cassette body for the test. i was hoping to use it as a guitar effect. i wanted to slightly obscure the erase head so that the signal was partly erased on each pass. i failed at this. it made some...

    engage play with no cassette?

    Hi all, I am trying to use my Tascam 112R mk11 to make a tape loop effect. the cassette housing i am using is just the bottom half. so no top of the cassette or the spools. because of this the tascam will not engage play. i have tried pressing in (as best i can) the spool motors and the tape...

    souls code - Looking for feedback on new songs.

    sounds good to me, maybe a little work needed to bed the vox into the mix, probably just a little more compression. good stuff.

    Getting Multiple Tracks to be the Same Volume

    Take a look at Ozone 11 - Izotope. Its a mastering plugin. Its kind of automatic to an extent, but you should get your tracks close first so the software isnt doing too much. It is often on sale or free.

    Post Your Analog Recordings Here...

    EQ is tough, takes a long time to learn. or did for me. mostly the bass is too boomy and hides alot of the info from the drums and guitar, remember, speakers have to try and reproduce all the instruments at the same time. maybe guitars are a bit bright too? first thing i learnt is that 200K to...
