    Boosting the overall Volume of a Finished Song.

    I always thought that this was something that was done during the mastering phase of a project-by adding compression etc.

    Order of operation recording question.

    I guess the other thing I could do is learn about (I can't remember the term) tempo mapping(?). And just speed up and slow down the track by the bpm as I require.

    Order of operation recording question.

    the first point about it causeing more drift is interesting. What I've actually done with click tracks is when I use them I will exchange the click for a drum pattern from EZ drummer, I found that it was more natural playing to a drum set than an annoying beeping sound-and it really helps with...

    Order of operation recording question.

    I'm sure your right about that usually-but not in this case, i've put in way to much time with the metrodome over the years to fear rhythm. What I do fear is a nun wacking your knuckles when you screw up on a piano (no wonder I quit).

    Order of operation recording question.

    Yes, I plan on throwing away the DI tracks, and overdubbing them later on. glad to hear that this is probably the way to go. And its not that we struggle with click tracks, its just that I like the natural flow that 'jamming' the song out brings. As for a drum map, i don't mess around with...

    Order of operation recording question.

    Hey there, I'm currently recording an EP, and I would like to avoid using click tracks while recording. I'd like to capsure as much of a 'live' performance quality as possible. where the song naturally slows down a few bpm-rather than robotically chugging along. The solution I have come up...

    guitar gain question

    1. The amp in the control room idea is stellar, and I'm going to try this from now on. 2. I recently saw a show of mine from the audience's perspective via a digital camera-I was blown away. I thought my sound was to thin on stage, but once it made its way through the mic and PA it came out...

    guitar gain question

    P.S. I typically turn the gain down on the amp as it can come through muddy at times.

    guitar gain question

    Hey there, I just wanted to ask a quick question. When recording your guitars, do you guys simply record with the dirt that your amp produces? or do you make your amp come out cleaner and add gain/distortion afterwards? I've always been someone who loves the sound of a amps natural...

    Cubase 5-pop and click question

    Hey there, I'm using Cubase 5, and I have one quick question (for now!). Ok, here is the situation. I am recording some tracks (guitar and bass). And as well all know occasionally there will be a missed note while playing-or maybe I prefer the way any other chorus sounds etc. Anyways, when I...

    How much an hr for your studio time ???

    i'm glad someone put this up. I've been asked to record my first demo/EP, and I was leaning towards $20 per hour. This kind of helps

    Help something in not right when i playback my vocal recordings

    I'm having the exact same problem with my recording efforts. everything 'live' sounds great, but once i playback it sounds like crap, with some sort of 'scratchyness' over it.

    TRANSITION to STUDIO MONITORS.

    Presonus provides some hardware that lets you swich up which speakers you are using with a push of a button. up to 3 different speaker out puts, kind of cool, going from cpu speakers, to studio speakers, to your PA system quickly

    Presonus firestudio tube issues

    I talked to my presonus guy down at the music shop. He said not to worry about the soundcard in my laptop as the presonus acts as tthe soundcard and it bypasses it. When I listen to the live track trough my headphones it comes through beautifully, but when i play back the recording it sounds...

    Presonus firestudio tube issues

    ha, it was as simple as going to my devise manager and updating the driver. (of course i did this after removing ALL of my files and drivers associated with firestudio). New issue i guess, but i'm guessing that it's because my sound card is a laptop soundcard, hence the drum recordings are...

    Presonus firestudio tube issues

    he didn't say anything about a chipset, but did mention a NFO file (don't know if this is the same thing?). and i have rebooted the cpu and firestudio, no luck yet.
