    Diablo Insomniac

    It shouldn't matter what system you play it on it should always sound great, and unfortunately it sound very thin, the guitars are buried as are some vocals while some are way too hot. I don't really hear muddiness at all.

    Instrumental + Vocal Mixing ?'s (Basic)

    peaking tracks while mixing is not as bad but try to avoid it and definitely don't ever let your master/main go into clipping, that's why most people put a limiter on the main to keep this from happening by accident but don't rely on it for volume control because it will start to sound harsh if...

    Using The Limiter On Vocals

    If you are ok recording automation and don't want to be lazy then why are you asking about using a limiter? Actually riding a fader is used for both music and dialog. As stated before just trying to keep coloration from processing to a minimum.

    Quality Control???

    I say shut up and take their money they're figure it out eventually. You aren't a thug, you're just poor, how can you rap about how ghetto you are in one verse and then about how you drop thousands of dollars every weekend at the club on gorgeous women the next?

    Promo tips??

    Just think of the most obtrusive and annoying thing you can think of and then over do that. That's how most indie hip hop artists promote.

    Splitting guitar signal for recording

    Depends on if you are recording the effects through an amp or not, use a DI passive or active is personal preference but if you are recording through an amp/effects then mic the amp for the second channel, if you are going straight out of effects/amp sim you should then have another DI for the...

    Snare Problems

    I find superior drummers out of the box mixes to be pretty decent, maybe a bit too much high hat. Are you making virtual tracks for all your mic positions or mixing inside the box that's inside the other box?

    guitar recording for metal

    Yeah but you should be using the tubes to get your distortion if possible, digital distortion always sounds nasty, and if you have a boutique amp like that then why use a cheap pedal instead of the built in tubes? At 4 you're not really getting anything out of the tubes. I use superior drummer...

    guitar recording for metal

    I would take the uber metal out of the loop and push the gain on the amp up and let those tubes scream. Get anything solid state out of the loop that you can.

    Preamp for SM7B

    guitar recording for metal

    Oh and turn your guitarists gains down, metal guys always have way too much gain and it always makes their parts thin. If you can't get them to turn their gains down get a DI track while recording their cabinets and reamp it later so you can have control over their gain and such.

    guitar recording for metal

    sm57 right on each cab split each guitarist hard L and R and then have them embelish lower parts in a higher register and split those half L and R and put them lower in the mix I find doing more than a single doubling of any specific guitar part makes it muddy and can actually thin the sound...

    Soon to begin my first drum recording experience.

    A lot of times what people, especially if their drums have never been recorded before, think sounds good in a room with their ears isn't what they actually sound like recorded. Best to throw up some direct mics and make sure you're getting a good sound that way, since I don't play drums I find...

    Instrumental + Vocal Mixing ?'s (Basic)

    if you are using 1 microphone it should be mono the only time you should be using stereo tracks is for stereo sources such as keyboards or samplers, even dual microphone recording I suggest using two tracks so that you can process them separately.

    Instrumental + Vocal Mixing ?'s (Basic)

    I don't hear anything happening during the word in at 47 seconds other than singing of key and whispering which is a singing problem not a recording problem.

    newbie on acoustics for recording vocals needs advice.

    My room has 18 6" OC703 panels in corners wall and ceiling and I seem to get a more palatable vocal without my auralex mudguard than with. It's pretty dead in the room at least in the vocal freq range I could only imagine how nasty the vocal would be if I sang right into the panels. You want...

    Instrumental + Vocal Mixing ?'s (Basic)

    Sounds like feedback, are you sure what you're singing isn't coming out of any speakers? Try turning them completely off.
