I am very new to this and have a great acoustic album ready, all I need to do is record it well. What plug-ins and effects should I use for this? Other than experimenting for myself, is there anything I should know? I've had this album prolonged for years and just find that I get swamped when...

How do I put the track on my computer?

How do I put a track I recorded with my Zoom H4n onto Reaper?

Yuh. A pair of Koss maybe? Or Sony... A pair that blocks out sound as well as it can for the price.

I am going to be recording soon and have little experience with metronomes. I only know how to count basic time signatures of 4, pretty much, and I have some song-parts that are in an unconventional time signature, how do I find which one it is? Is there a site that shows examples of different...

Considering how they pick up on sound so well, should I place the mic close to my acoustic to block out the background noise? I'm going to be recording in my house and find that they pick up on the smallest noise... Maybe close-miking it would be better for the fingerpicked songs, since they...

I just got Reaper and would like to know what people think of how its metronome holds up. I read that the metronome clicks at a different time signature than the one you put in.

She's 64, going with that.

Boobs...

Looks like there are some good-priced MXL's, you liked their sound?

The thing is, I'm recording an acoustic and vocals with the built-in condensers and find that they pick up a lot of hiss and what not. Even my breathing and slight background noise are heard during playback, which I wouldn't even have noticed during recording. I play some mellow songs that sound...

Right on. Think I'll try the built-in mics with Reaper and see what I can come up with. I think it could be good now, feels good to get feedback, makes all the difference sometimes. Maybe I will upgrade to an SM57 before long, I hear it is quite versatile and well-priced.

It's about not knowing which Reaper to get, the 32-bit or the 64-bit, and not knowing what a plug-in is, like I said. Which bit version you get is said to be based on what plug-ins you use, and I don't know what plug-ins are so I'd like to know.

I have Windows 8 and don't which one to use. I read up on it a bit but am confused as to what a plug-in even is. What to do.

He plays very close to the mic here, probably a good idea considering it's a dynamic mic. It picks up a good sound. I'm thinking this could be a better choice than my zoom H4n's built-in mics, especially considering how they pick up on so much background noise and I am recording acoustic guitar...

So this was recorded with a 57? Sounds good man, and with everything I hear about it it could be a good choice, especially for a beginner recording artist such as myself. Playing isn't as big a problem for me as recording is...

That's pretty good quality. Just wondering how the MK's affected it, if they made a big difference in quality compared to the built-in mics. The sound came from combining what you recorded with the built-ins and the MK's?

What's this about an interface having clean gain? Can't I just turn up/down the clean gain of the interface? Does the 57 have a gain problem? Maybe I could turn off any such auto-gain on the built-in mics...

To answer a few questions, I am looking to record an all acoustic album. Sounds to me like a condenser is what I'd like but unfortunately not what is available at this time, considering how I hear a lot of how cheap condensers all sound the same. Thing is, I am recording with my Zoom H4n and...

Cool, sounds like Reaper is solid. I'll give that a try.
