That's the problem, Ronan. I don't know how to compress during tracking or during mixing. I give up. I've been going at it all night and still haven't the slightest clue. My RNC goes on ebay tomorrow.

I'm a freaking idiot. I'll never get it. Can't believe I have a Master's degree and still can't figure this out! :mad: :mad: :mad: Anybody wanna buy my RNC? I'm focusing on my music and leave the compression to the pros.

Talked to Mark from FMR and he gave me some real great advice on "playing around" with the RNC. Don't know if my gear will allow this but I'll sure try when I get home. He instructed me to record some uncompressed tracks then try to route the signals to the monitors through the RNC. I think my...

Chessrock, Seems like you've got tons of great suggestions except for one thing. You're talking Greek. He-he. Not your fault at all. Completely mine. I confess I have no idea what attack and release, etc are about. I read the RNC manual but still. I don't even know what a compressor is for. I...

Thanks Blue Bear, I confess, my biggest problem is that I have no idea what a compressor or limiter is for. I just bought one because I thought you gotta have one. I will really need to read up on it and the site you suggested seems to be a great placed to start. I just want to get on and...

I have the RNC and am wondering if I need it for the acoustic guitar. I have several Taylors and use the SP C4s through the RNC and RNP into an AKAI DAW. Mild to moderate strumming to fingpericking. Can anyone recommend their favorite or best setting in the Super Nice mode to get the most...

I have the RNC and am wondering if I need it for the acoustic guitar. I have several Taylors and use the SP C4s into the RNC and RNP. Mild to moderate strumming to fingpericking. What is the best setting in the Super Nice mode to get the most natural sound? What about for vocals? (The AT4040 is...

Chris, Tough times. I'm really new here but if you feel like you need to talk to someone, let me know. Everyone goes through this differently but I went through the same grief work 3 years ago. I was 32 then. It gets easier with His help. My prayers are with you. Ernie.

:D :D :D

Thanks again guys. I just ordered the AT and am keeping track of some NTKs on ebay just in case I decide to go with something different.

Thanks guys. Are the differences in sound quality easily recognizable or do you have to be an expert to really tell them apart?

For vocals, is the difference between the two mics significant? Night and day? I am torn between the two and could fork out the extra bucks for the NTK but I just wanted to hear everyone's opinions on these two. Keep in mind that all my projects are extremely amateur. Will plug it into a RNP...

Just as I thought. Neither store carries Studio Projects and none had no idea what 4041 is. Oh well. This is exactly why I buy almost 100% of my stuff online (Taylors, PRS, AKAI, Cornford, FMR stuff, T-Rex, Teese wah, etc) and mainly based on user recommendations.

Excellent advice sdelsolrey. Exactly what I needed to hear. I do need to figure out exactly what "bump" means. I'm off to the local music store tomorrow morning and visit with the guys. When the time comes for an LD condenser, I'll give you (and everyone else) a shout. Thank God I don't know...

Thanks freshmattyp.

Good advice. There is somewhat of a complication on this one. The only two music stores where I'm from do not have competitive prices and they know it. They have the nicest salespeople though and they've become friends of mine. They do not carry these two mics in stock and I don't feel right...

Saw that one too but it didn't really compare the C4 to the AT4041.

Newbie question. Lost of great info in this forum!! Here's my first post. I'm ready to upgrade my mics for acoustic guitar recording. I play fingerpicking to light strumming using Taylor guitars. Aside form vocals and a drum machine, no other instruments will be added to the mix. I plug...
