Took a stab...very pitchy vocals that took the longest to fix. http://soundcloud.com/pahtcub/how-long/s-46L3U

I have the presonus 1818 Vsl and a focusrite isa one and I think the focusrite pres have more life than the xmax pres but still very usable.

Just checking out my new iPhone and thought this would be perfect for it.

In live sound most high powered rigs use an aux sub setup only sending bass instruments to the subs to save power therefor eliminating the need to add a filter on every other channel, which is most, and saving the power for the subs in that manner. Mud and rumble are a bigger issue then too...

Rather than quad tracking I usually track something higher up that fits the song, it really brings out new dimension sometimes, then you can have all kinds of fun with EQ and effects on the second or third guitar part and bury it in the mix so you can't really hear it. It just adds something...

I have the a7x and I love them but I have to say the money I spent on treatment about a grand made the biggest difference in my sound over any other piece of gear. These guys aren't just being you about treatment.

Having dap is very nice it means you can have your band or clients practice without even opening your daw I'd say it's worth it if only for tracking make sure nothing you do prints to your daw.

I would start by telling the artist that the recording will suck in that venue with that gear IMHO

I really enjoyed mike senior mixing secrets but honestly there aren't many mixing books available period so just grab many as you can and get to reading they all have wonderful tips and new information that you many not have heard. There are really so many variables in recording that i don't...

89bpm is fast?

Just get an interface with 8 inputs and make sure it has adat inputs then get an 8 ch preamp and hook up light pipe adat then boom you've got 16 channels. I just got a digimax d8 for $300 to add to my 1818 works perfectly.

My drummer has his dw kit internally miced. It's cool for shows but it's a pain for recording and I don't really like the sound recorded.

I start with dr levels on the most important part of whatever the song calls for if the dynamics are all over the place I work on dynamics. If different parts of tracks are at different levels I mult the section for better level control Basically I get the levels correct first then add eq...

Finding the answer to this will entail using both mics on the sources you wish to use it for and doing some critical listening on both otherwise I'd say either will be fine as they are similar in usefulness and if you never hear the other then you'll never know the difference.

But this would give you warm vocals!

I don't have a sub kick.

Yeah good luck with 20-30k. You can have fun but as far as being "professional" I doubt it would get you everything you need, let alone the talent and practice needed to record and mix properly and well enough to get clients in the door and develop a reputation. I this day and age recording...

I'll trade you a beta 52 for a Yamaha sub kick.

It must be super cold in that studio I guess they didn't insulate for warmth just for sound. Note the winter cap.

You can put a compressor.limiter on the master to hear an idea of what it will sound like as you may want to adjust the attack release times of your drums to suit global compression.
