after getting the hang of most of the basics, i decided to post a question here, that i wonder about every time i record..
how do you handle the individual output levels in your signal chain? like, where should i bring up my signal up to the needed level, and where should i not? i know.. this...
heres something i heard about headphones, which i found really appropriate:
"use your monitors for mixing, your headphones as magnifying glass" - if i translated it correctly.. :D
but i think "magnifying glass" is the right word.. i hope :)
what is the 8 sources? line signals (1/4''), or microphone? if its a mic u will need an XLR input for every mic, which makes quite a huge difference in choice/price..
yea.. kazzaa went a bit crappy with that, i cant explain it either, but had the same problem when i wanted to share something - it just didnt show up at the ppl that wanted to download it.. maybe u just have to give it some time.. like it maybe indexes files, and refreshes that index every other...
:)
thanks blue bear.. well, that was the bands first album.. under an indie label (but a popular one) - though i have no idea who set up these mics..
oh well thanks for your comments :D
hmm.. as someone who should not be allowed to answer (yet :D), i would say:
because u will never get exactly the frequency response that you would prefer on certain applications, so you will fix that with the EQ when recording..
and then, you will NEVER know, while placing your mics, how it...
well.. actually i only noticed that on my home pc until now (and hope i wont have that prob with my recording pc sometimes..), but i'd like to know what causes this, if any of u have ideas..
i load a song im working on, and like 30% of the time i do this, the entire song is sounding exactly...
what do u want to record?
for every mic u need an XLR input, of which this mixer only offers one! and an XLR input is mono, as a line input is..
but if you're only using line-signals, you can use up to 1 mono, and 2 stereo tracks - or 5 mono tracks (where you wont be able to control 2 mono...
i'm curious.. whats that? x/y? from what i heard, when micing x/y the capsules almost touch each other, also it seem like the mics point towards the drums, from behind, not down like they would with x/y (wouldnt they?)
im just really curious about this, because these pics are from the studio...
yes i gathered.. actually i just put the head off and on again to "get to know" how a drum works etc.. :)
yes, no doubt i need new heads, seeing as these r pretty worn out, and played while being tuned too low..
i had the coincidental pleasure to have an experienced drummer helping me out with...
WHY do i always hear bad things about behringer products, on this board? and i'm asking because i'm really interested. i have the UB1204FX, and recently added the small UB802 - and i would buy a new behringer mixer anytime! the only thing i now miss is a phase switch.. :(
but yea, i AM a...
hey, since u r from germany: in case you're talking about the collins dcm57, i have that, and it sounds just like the sm57 (which of course does NOT mean its as good.. sm57 will undoubtely be the higher quality mic (and u get the mic clip, bag etc, which i didnt get with the collins mic)
so...
okay heres the way it is:
- i have a cheap BASIX drumkit to use for recording. (from someone who doesnt know shit about drums, at all. the drums were never tuned since purchasing them, which is like 6 months..)
- i am no drummer (my band is seeking one, i will play myself for test-recording..)...
1. de-install all drivers manually
2. turn pc off
3. remove souncard
4. start pc
5. turn pc off(yea, again - now your OS realizes that the hardware is actually gone and may remove stuff that hasnt been removed, in spite of driver de-installation..)
6. install soundcard
7. turn pc on
8. install...
