    Compressor settings on mixdown

    I never use a ratio more than 2:1 on a mixdown.. Usually around 1.5:1. Threshhold can't really be pre determined.That's a matter of listening and experimenting.I use in the niehborhood of a fast attack, and a moderate to slow release in most cases, but this doesnt always apply depending on the...

    I always try to keep my options open with the gear that I buy.The setup works well for my application as well as many other studios, but I understand opinions arent always agreed with.

    CD-R's unplayable on some CD players?

    The music CDs you buy in a store are pressed from a mold. CD-Rs are burned with a laser.

Whether CD-Rs or pressed...

    New Studio

    I prefer to use external analog equipment and then converting it to digital format but this is difficult to do on a 2000.00 budget.Good quality costs. Theres no way around it. You may want to stick with the theory in the previous post until your funds open up. But as far as vocals, I would...

I...

    I'm not exactly sure what you are trying to do but it sounds like your options are wide open. Are you going to mix down in Cakewalk or send it back to your ADATs and then to a mixer??

    EQ settings when recording

    The only thing we really EQ are things like Cymbals and hi hats and kick drum. I like my kick drum with a bit of smack in it. Sometimes some hi hats and cymbals can sound dark but with a little EQing they sound the way I like em.EQing is a preference to the engineer but too much EQing can hurt...

    Cakewalk audio effects question

    You beat me to it.Thats what I was thinking too.Make sure the portion of the track you want to be affected is highlighted.But will it allow you to select effects in the menu if nothing is highlighted? I thought it was greyed out and wouldn't allow you to click on it if nothing was highlighted.I...
