    do egg cartons work?

    . I didn't understand the numbers, but I wouldn't use egg cartons, I just thought id hold on to some and put them on the walls of my wardrobe and see what it sounded like, obviously I wouldn't literally build and entire studio with egg carton walls, and toilet paper tube microphones and bits...

    recording multiple tracks (noob)

    this may seem like a rediculous question, but with reel to reel tape, can you record 2 or 3 tracks, then deselect them, and select the next track along and record your 4th track, or do you only get 1 shot. What i mean is, in digital, you can record your vox, guitar, bass, drums and whatever all...

    radio effect for vocals

    . just go on garage band, play your vocal track over and over again using different guitar effects, thats right, guitar effects on your vocals, failing that, using cubase sx use guitar rig program, download that as part of it and do the same thing, its just eq and some distortion, but youd...

    how does everyone pay for there studio?

    . I waste 90% of my wages on studio stuff, regardless of the fact that I have no garage or spare room to put it, so I drag bits of equiptment into the bedroom to use them one at a time

    wall soundproofing

    . It would be nice to have no sound leakage, but ive never cared about that, I kinda do want it to deaden the room, get rid of the room sound and echo, I was going to build an 10x10ft box to record vocals in, then put the guitar amp in, then the bass amp, then the drums and record seperately...

    Autocue systems?

    . Nobody uses an auto cue in the studio, every time ive seen an artist record, they either have the paper they wrote it on in their hand, or a music stand, its just the norm, it would seem extremely intrusive to have an auto cue or overhead projector

    Digital pedals in analogue recording

    I know the 'd word' is a big no no in analogue recording, But is it really breaking the rules so much if I use a digital fx pedal, I can't find an analogue version. Should I feel like ive 'let down the team'? I haven't used it yet, but it would save me a lot of hassle..what do you think?
