Okay, so here's the deal guys. I don't know if anyone has any experience recording chinese instruments, but I have the opportunity of recording my grandfather, a self-taught musician, this weekend or next (depending on the energy he has.) And because the session can't be as intense, it's not...

hmm... well, to put it simply, let's say you have 2 1GB sticks of ram that have a speed of 400MHz. With single channel, it'll be like running a 1 2GB stick at 400 MHz. With dual channel, it'll run both 1GB sticks at 400 MHz for different processes (thus, you are utilizing the speed of both...

Although you may want to look into getting those 2GBs of RAM as dual channel. But if you just get this, it should work fine.

yes it will work.

for quick riff, play the chord in whatever rhythm you want. Drum fill, just let him do some coool stuff for a while. If you want a 'fill' with other instruments (also known as cues), use the scale of the chord and play something that sounds good as you go to the next part of the song. If you...

He means to get another separate hard drive. So you have one for your OS and software and another for your recording files. He is suggesting that you will benefit more from this than adding more RAM. If you are thinking about getting the most powerful machine for the price, you should go PC...

i feel you on the fruity loops samples, and i see that you don't want pay. However, aside from finding good samples, if you utilize some of the sample already there with certain effects, changing the wave patterns and combining sounds, you can get some sounds in fl that work with hip hop.

speaking of 30 yr old monitors...has anyone heard of UA300 series? I'm in the same situation, my dad's old speakers. The funny thing is they say, "Studio Monitors" on them. So I'm sure if they are made for monitoring or music enjoyment. I don't even know if 'UA' represents the company or not.

a riff is more of a rhythm section thing, like jp quoted from google. The little melody lines are usually called 'licks' Of course you can double notes, like arpeggiating the chords and having the piano comp along, or vice versa. This may work well for the rhythm section especially. If both...

I've read that it is a good versatile mic, that has a bass proximity effect (meaning, the bass is accentuated as you go closer to the mic). Especially good for both guitar and vocals. ALthough for specifically vocals I hear shure SM58 is good.

For people to give you better information, your budget is needed. There are a million ways to start recording, but you may want to consider one of two methods: 1. Mixerless: This requires an audio interface with built in I/O and preamps. A really good deal right now is: Firepod + 3 Mics +...

i will and i intended too...thanks all. just wrote that last post to clarify for 60s guy. alex

Well, my booth is in the corner of a room, with both walls padded to try to deaden the reverb. However, the article that I initially posted, is a duvets booth with two futon type matresses forming a corner. (1) So, by singing into the booth, I meant singing towards the booth. With the mic...

I haven't used n-track extensively, and I'm pretty new to recording. However, I believe, from using my firepod, that you need to use the AISO settings for both. Really, you should just try them all and see which work, but through Cubase I use AISO. Alex

But if you record into the vocal booth instead, wouldn't the sound hit the treatment and then not reflect back?

So, I am experimenting with the best way to set-up a rigged vocal booth. Right now, I am basically using this as a guide: vocal booth guide My question is about where to aim the mic. In the above article it says to aim it towards the booth. Which means you'll be facing the room when...

Thank you so very much for that. It took a lot of patience to write that, and I feel so much more satisfied. I hate when I don't understand something completely. So, then, let's say we have a low input and a high output impendance. Therefore, the signal-thingy-sender is sending a lot of...

desktop:laptop :: big dog:lap dog Which means that they cost much more money than their counterpart and you get less, twice as much time and money to maintain them and you can't play with it as rough. :D

Thanks, benny, I was hoping someone would correct me. I couldn't put that discrepancy between preamps and phantom power. I couldn't figure out why a mic needs power other than for amplification. One question though. You say that the output source should be higher impedance than the input...

https://homerecording.com/impedance.html https://homerecording.com/mics.html This has some good initial basics on your questions. A short disclaimer first, is all this info I drop will be based on very limited research. But trying to explain it will help me learn too. :D 'Impendance' does...
