    Poll - how important IS 96 freq. in 24 bit system?

    id rather load up on rverbs, rcomps and timeworks eqs on 30 channels of 24/44.1 than do 24/96 or 24/88.2

    Question regarding the levels of the lead vocal..??

    well if you overuse peak limiting you will lose most percussion sounds pretty quickly, but as regebro said if this happens, use less!

    Pop screen distance

    well what he means by room sound is that you'll here the reflections of the sound travelling around the room more in relation to the sounds traveling toward the mic. So if you have the mic on one side of the closet adn the singer on the other, it will sound like he's signing in a closet. If he's...

    Question regarding the levels of the lead vocal..??

    i think what he's trying to say is, when you peak limit the final mix, how do you keep the relative levels of the different tracks the same?

    G5 vs. G4

    brzilian makes a very important point, a 64-bit processor requires 64-bit programs to run at its full potential

    working with AUDIO and MIDI

    Maybe I lied, audio definitely sounds better when done right (unless you want a midi/machine type sound), its just that sometimes to do with audio what the average home-reccer can do with midi is a little cost-prohibitive :D

    working with AUDIO and MIDI

    If you can do something with audio than do it. For example, if you have a b3, than record that. If you don't, try a midi controller and native instrument's b4. If you don't happen to have a grand piano in the studio, use midi to trigger piano samples. But if you have a nice amp and a 57 don't...

    G5 vs. G4

    they are two very different computers, the g5's 64-bit architecture is supposed to open up a new level of computing. If you're talking about raw effects type processing then it depends what processors are in each, but I would put my money on the dual g4

    5.1 surround mixing

    I looked into surround mixing a few months ago, it quickly became very clear that making the step up to surround is a $40,000 investment. Right now there just isn't any usable homerecording-type surround gear.

    Punching In

    I've had small pops before between two very close clips, but very small fades will fix that. Just make sure you have "snap to grid" enabled so that you don't have to worry about lining up the clip properly.

    will i hear a big difference?

    i dont know about the bookshelf size speakers but as far as the lifestyle surround systems go, i have absolutely no respect for bose. Sure, its cool that your speakers are really small, but small speakers make the material sounds like it's coming out of little 6 inch cubes! :eek: Then they throw...

    ***How To Use A Spec. Analyzer right???

    I would say the proper way to use a spec analyzer would be to approach say a bass with your ears. You say hmmm. this bass seems really muddy. Well in my 25 years of experience (dont worry I havent got that either) i've noticed that muddy bass usually has a lot of 160-300 hz stuff, but depending...

    Punching In

    the safest way to punch in digitally, and I have to wonder why you would do it any other way would be to record onto a second track, and once you're sure your happy, cut out the bad part from the first track and paste in the good part. Of course you could just set the record mode (im not sure...

    writing a story or "historical" song

    I personally love Billy Joel's song downeaster alexa about the Long Islan Bayman. I think one of the things that make the lyrics not cheesy is that he gives them a very personal edge, the story is told as if billy joel is the bayman.
