    Need a pre-amp reccomendation!

    Well, I haven't owned a lot of preamps, but I've listened to enough interrogator sessions and shootouts to recognize that investing in a preamp is about the least bang for your buck you can do to try and change your tone. The difference you get for $2000 is extremely minimal, and the golden age...

    I guess I can see how the uni said you can't change to a different course now, especially if it is one of those engineering schools where you have to apply to a track and follow it exactly. I went to one of those tech schools liek that and got really sick after a few months and wound up...

    TY. That's a LP through superfuzz pedal clone into a bassman clone on the lead guitar. The clean guitar is a strat relic through a crybaby into a pro junior. That's the superfuzz pedal applied to the bass guitar for that riff. I added it in parallel to the clean bass guitar. Guess what...

    Need a pre-amp reccomendation!

    I hear over and over again that the Golden Age Pre 73 is best preamp in that price range. Golden Age PRE-73 | Preamps @ ZenProAudio.com Listening to the clips on the zen pro website, even importing them into my Daw, I can't tell the difference between the stock pre 73 and an all original Neze...

    Thanks. A few days apart from the song let me revisit the mix, see what people were talking about, and produce this new mix. I think it's a lot better, and I'm probably going to move on to something else from here. Thanks for all your help, everybody.

    I'm not sure why, but I can't post anything over 2 megs. Maybe it's privilege of having 6,000+ posts that allows you to post larger files. What mp3 converter do you use? Is there a free one you would recommend? I don't know what you mean by a 320. Some others have given me the opposite...

    What am I doing wrong???

    I finally finished remixing my tune. I basically did parallel compression on each track with a lot of EQ, and did some tedious track automation. I got a mix I liked, and then tried to maximize the loudness with compression and it fell apart again. So then I went all hillbilly on it and put...

    OK, here is a remix of it. I basically just mastered the stems using parallel compression and eq, and mixed down. I then tried making that remix louder using compressors and limiters and such, but the result was very bad. It sounded worse than the previous result, plus it was not as loud. So...

    What am I doing wrong???

    Not ignored Rami! I went back to my stems and figured otu that the premixed drum track is causing the problem. So I guess I basically have to master that stem more or less separately. If what I'm doing now doesn't work, I'll try something else. But part of my problem is this. OK, so now I...

    Realtime pitchshift?

    You could also blast that vocal through your monitors and mic it through the pedal. But to answer your question, I'm not aware of any plugins that can do it. I was thinking about how to do it along time ago when I was brainstorming how to do a "kidnapper" type voice modulation, and the only...

    LOL! I just realized I misspelled the name of the thread. How unfortunate!

    What am I doing wrong???

    Thanks for this tip. I thought I was supposed to use the pencil tool and that has not been working for me at all. I wasn't sure how to find these frequencies, but I guess using the sweep in combination with a compressor that is set way too hard, and then backing off on the compression once...

    Realtime pitchshift?

    I know a pro who uses a whammy pedal on vocals sometimes. I assume it's for stuff like this, but I don't know for sure.

    What am I doing wrong???

    I know that a laptop sounds like a strange metric, but I'm talkign about a pretty good gaming laptop, and pro soundtracks always sound just fine on it. I guess I should say that modern pro soundtracks always sound good on it. I'll take a listen to some older works in a bit to see what's going...

    What am I doing wrong???

    Everytime I get my mix done and bounce it down and transfer it to my jump drive and listen to it on my laptop, the loudness is so low I can't even hear it. Normalizing it to zero dB doesn't help much because I have some ridiculously huge transient peaks on the beat. If I put a compressor and...

    I'm using protools le 6.1.1 and an original mbox to record. I'm recording the bass direct and compressing it in the DAW. I didn't apply any eq to it, becasue it sounded ok to me in the uncompressed mix. But the level of the mix is so low, and there are some ridiculous transients, so when I...

    Please check it out and help me figure out how to get a more high fi sound. I wrote and performed it too (except the drum loops), so feedback on the song structure, performance, etc., is also appreciated. The uploader won't let me attach it because it is apparently too large at 2.7 MB, so...

    Who can help touch up my covers

    This guy I need to improve and I've an Idea - Home Recording Forum is trying to get people to send him stuff to master. He's learning, but I thought he did a great job on my mix. Certainly, he did better than I was able to do. You'll have to ask him about being permitted to release the...

    Please share your knowledge with me!

    You should buy every brand of mic cable posssible until you find one that cats don't like to eat. Then tell me what brand that is.
