After doing some research and comparing my options in my price range, I went ahead and ordered the Primacoustic London 10 kit. Comes with 8 panels and 16 scatter blocks. And yes I know there is better stuff out there, but I am in Canada and found this to have good reviews and it was easy to...
At this time I'd rather not build them myself. I'm not very good with building this stuff, and I don't really have the tools or space. Maybe in the future but for now I'd rather just buy the treatment.
I can always hold off on the bass traps and just work on the essentials like getting my first...
I'm looking to treat my room better than I have right now. I have foam right now. And YES I am aware it's not very effective so I don't need to be reminded. :) This is why I'm looking to do it better this time around. I've been in this room for around 4 years now with pretty much the same setup...
I am considering it. I'm just concerned that the bass will be too overpowering for my room and that they won't be well suited.
Does the room size matter?
I know with the HS8 you can turn down the bass from the back.
I do appreciate all the advice on acoustic treatment.. With that being said, I'm not really having any troubles with my room in particular. . It's something that's on my list for later.
I've had my M-Audios for over 4 years now in the same room and place and they are all I have ever mixed on. I...
I appreciate the reply. My room sounds alright right now and my mixes translate alright when I take them and listen on other speakers and places.
With that being said, I'm still interested in purchasing new monitors. I will definetly be looking into bass traps and better acoustic treatment in...
I have a limited budget, and the 2 I mentioned seem like a great option for me.
I'm just having some trouble deciding if I should go with the Yamaha's or the Focal's and if I should go for the 6.5" or 8" version.
I have acoustic panels/foam on the walls. So it's partially treated.
I will be going more in depth and doing some better treatment, adding bass traps, once I get new monitors.
I'm looking at purchasing a new pair of studio monitors soon and am having some trouble. I currently own a pair of M-Audio BX5 which are low end budget monitors. I'm looking to upgrade to something more expensive and better now that I have the money for them. Nothing in particular that I didn't...
There's nothing in particular that I don't like about my current monitors. As I mentioned, I've been using them for several years now and am simply interested in upgrading from my budget monitors to something better. I'm so used to my M-Audio monitors. I haven't experienced any other monitors...
I am interested in purchasing a new pair of studio monitors. I've been using the M-Audio BX5s for several years now and think it's time for an upgrade. There isn't anything in particular wrong with these monitors. It's just that they are low budget monitors and I'm so used to them and it's all...
My mic picks up small sounds like my fan from my computer. Unfortunately, I don't' have the space or money to make a vocal booth. I want to get the best results I possibly can with the gear I already have. If I keep the gain low on my interface and I get closer to the mic, it helps a bit and...
I'm recording voice and acoustic guitar but mainly vocals. I am using a Shure SM57 with a pop filter. My computer is fairly close to my mic. My room isn't exactly loud, when you listen closely, you can hear small noises from the fan of my computer, some noises outside, and some other noises in...
When I record vocals, I get background noise. I don't have the space or money to buy those acoustic panels so is there a way I can eliminate background noise without spending too much?
Thanks for the suggestions. I decided to get the Shure SM57 and I am very satisfied with it. I've recorded some vocals and use a pop filter and some acoustic guitar and it sounds great!
I'm looking to purchase my first pair of studio monitors. I'll be using them in a regular room, there is no acoustic treatment. My budget is $250 max for both speakers, I know it's not a lot but I'm tight on my budget. I understand I can't get something amazing for that price. I want something...
I'm looking at getting a Shure SM57 or SM58 but am not sure which to get. I'll mainly be recording singing and screaming vocals. However, I will record acoustic guitar occasionally. I understand the main difference is the SM58 has a pop filter built in. I have an external pop filter so if I used...
I'm either going to go with the SM58 or the AT2020 just because the store has both of them in stock and it's easier. I know there are a lot of other mics out there for the price but I want to narrow it down to those 2. Please suggest which one out of those 2 would work best for my needs.
I'm looking to purchase a new microphone for my small home studio. My budget is around $130 and I'll be plugging the mic into my audio interface. I will be using the mic mainly for vocals. I will be recording singing, screaming, and occasional acoustic guitar. I was considering the Shure SM58 or...
