    Song order, who decides?

    In todays business there are many factors that determine a track order. First the executive producer creates the track list, he then takes the "rough draft as far as songs" into the A&R's office then they have a listen and he gives his input of maybe rearranging the order of the songs or maybe...

    Mic route into pro-tools...

    I agree with the other guys, do not use the mixer. It is different if you had a good compressor to run through and then go into your 002. Its ok for your vocals to be hot as long as they are not constantly peaking or distorting or clicking or popping.

    Always peaking

    As long as it isn't clipping or popping or distorting I wouldn't worry about it 2 much.

    I'm having problems hooking up my M-AUDIO DMP3 pre amp to my M-BOX

    If u make sure that u have the power on the mic which is the 48v button off then you are not using the mbox pre. It is only when that button is on that you are using the pre. I have been running my connections like this since I had the mbox 1 starting back in 2004. I have never had an issue. The...

    I'm having problems hooking up my M-AUDIO DMP3 pre amp to my M-BOX

    Or you can use a xlr cable from your mic to the xlr input on your pre. Then use a xlr cable and go from the xlr output on your pre to the xlr input on your mbox. That is how I have my focusrite preamp hooked up. I think the sound is better using xlr cables than the trs. But I'm sure that is just...

    They are not talking about lyrics or anything like that. There is some bad songs that has a good mix or master on it. But for those rap fans out there the worst mixed/mastered album ever is by the group Dirty name of the album is Love Us Or Hate Us

    Pro Tools Without an Audio Interface?

    I have recorded bands and vocals with them in the same session and didn't go over 48 tracks. So for u 2 say that my statement is dumb then something must be wrong with your recording technique. Because I didn't bash anyone or make a derogatory statement towards anyone. Saying something is wrong...

    Pro Tools Without an Audio Interface?

    It is good 2 use a interface no matter what program u use. I use my pro tools interface for everything. Pro Tools, Logic, CD Architect, When I have dj gigs. (Hooks the mbox 2 into the club mixer so that the sound card is powerful enough 2 power the speakers) Everyone says Pro Tools is over hyped...

    Is protools necessary?

    That would be easy to answer if u would tell us what your current setup is. And as a producer pro tools is not necessary. As a recording/mixing engineer yes it is. Because a lot of ppl in the industry use it. There are still a few that use Nuendo & Logic. Also on that note, a lot of ppl like...

    are mboxes just sh*t???

    stereo doubling that doesn't suck

    1. The reason you are getting the "flanging" is because you are not saying the words at the exact same time. Your words can be off by a 10th of a second and it will give u that effect. Try this, record a 3rd vocal track of exactly the same thing and just turn it down and that should fix the...
