I've gotten a chance to use the compressor and I must say I'm happy I bought one! When I tracked vocals everything was even and clear and I didn't have to keep looking at my computer screen to see if I was clipping or not. thanks for everyone's help!!

Hey all I'm a clueless EQ user right now. I'm new to the whole recording deal and I was wondering if any of you knew a good website to read up on the very basics of EQ rolloffs, bands, hz, etc..... <-- clueless :) thanks in advance!

actaully I just went out last night and got a behringer composer pro for $99 I couldn't pass up a 99 dollar compressor :)

well I guess I can always run a cable from my soundcards' mic out into my gina'a input in and just record a click track about as long as I think the song is that sucks :(

yep, I know that much about what needs to be done I just dont know what to change or where to change it :(

well I tried setting up the metronome to use while recording after some playing and setting adjustment I got the metronome to play out of my PC speakers but not out of my echo gina headphone jack. While recording vocals, of course I can't have a loud metronome in the background :) there...

Just wondering... I have a condenser mic(requires phantom) a pre-amp and a compressor/limiter rackmount and I dump it all into my computer Should I plug into the compressor first, then the pre-amp or the pre-amp first then the compressor? both have XLR inputs

ok so I'm returning the Nady 1050 tube mic after about 30 people I let listen to my mp3 comparison voted that the SM58 was a better overall sound pooh on that I went out today and got a SHURE KSM27 Condenser Mic $299 and I even got a Behringer 2200 compresser/limiter for $99 (at that price, I...

I got an RA number to return the darn thing I'm heading to west LA music after work to grab me a shure ksm27 to see how that puppy compares, if its relatively the same I'll just keep the nady

what the heck do I know, I'm a newbie :)

hey aaron, thanks for those excellent tips!! I'll try them tonight when I get home

well to me the 58 just sounds a little warmer and the nady seems to sound tinny when I go higher and louder what micing techniques are you suggesting I try?

mixmkr, can you recommend any good books out there on getting started with recording techniques? I definately think there is room for improvement there you can also compare my vocals to these mp3's done at a professional studio with producer Jim Wirt http://www.drawingdown.com/mp3.php

yes, the shockmount said "I MEAN BUSINESS" :) I can't help it, I'm an impulse buyer and your right, my ears do need more training, thats why I posted the before and after to see if you guys can help me get those ears where they need to be. I really don't know what to look for other than the...

lol yea I have the 58 in my hands while I was sitting here in the chair, I didn't feel like undoing the shockmount on my stand <-- lazy :) the 58 sounded better than I thought it would for "shure" hehe

I just did a quick take with the new nady 1050 for the first verse and first chorus and then another track with a sure 58 for the 2nd verse and chorus, through the same pre-amp both with same reverb and compression settings here is the mp3... what do you guys think? is it worth keeping the...

so how about a sure ksm27 or a AKG 3000B? something under $350 would be ideal that is good for vocals

well I am an asswipe and just bought them out of a catalog based on mics in that price range and what came with them I did some searches and nothing really came up on the nady, guess cause its new still I'll play around with it tonight and see what I can get out of that sucker

chessrock, you give me hope my friend!!!! :) excellent post
