Thanks for posting, and well done on the vocal performance! If I were sitting down to use one of these in a mix, I would reach for Mic #4 first. To my ears, it had the best balance of brightness and body that complimented your voice quite well. Mic #3 would be my second choice - it also fit...

Guys, After one take is complete, you can simply leave that track record-armed and record again. Logic automatically saves the overdub as an alternate take. Once the second (or third, or fourth, etc.) takes are complete, click the arrow in the upper left-hand corner of the region and all of...

Thanks. It's more like a hobby gone out of control than a full-time living. :) There are places to download audio beds, though you get what you pay for. Most of the stuff I use is Logic-bundled, but I have purchased several RF libraries and some stuff we produce in-house. Part of what I do...

Here's a rough sketch of what I might do with a track like the one you posted: Eugene Taylor - Rough Demo with Audio Bed Can't put life into a lifeless read, but with a few edits, the recording certainly works. Were I in your seat and able to give him some influence, I would suggest he take...

Folks won't necessarily scour for the track, but he'll need a good basic "all around" that he can submit for projects, especially if he doesn't have his own setup at home to record custom demo's with (which, BTW, will put him at a HUGE competitive disadvantage). Here are some good examples of...

That's a loaded question. As someone who works in VO regularly, I have a few different demo reels: one "everything" reel that showcases a lot of different things (commercials, promos, phone stuff, etc.), and a "specialty" reel for each commercials, corporate promos, and phone work. The demo...

Might've gotten hit with a "super rep" - i.e. someone on the board with more pull than others. The rep points don't mean much around here... :)

Yep: http://www.apple.com/ilife/garageband/jam-packs.html

Correct; Logic has a list of "GarageBand" plugins available to accomplish just that. However, if you have built customized plugins in GB (e.g. if you took a standard plugin in GB, edited it's parameters, and saved it as a custom plug-in), then you would need to import this plugin into Logic...

Ideally, look for an elongated bass trap that can run down the corner seam at least 2'. Start from the top corner and work your way down until you get the deadness you want. You can build these yourself by cutting some 3-4" strips of OC-703 rigid fiberglass, stacking a couple together, and...

voiceguy, Welcome to the boards. If you haven't already, you may want to consider duplicating your post on D.B. Cooper's VO-BB (just Google it) to attract some VO-specific feedback. I'm one of a few voiceover producers who haunt around this site; most of the feedback you'll find here is from...

To Glen's point, I cannot comment on the PVB as I have not owned or used one. I do own an sE Reflexion Filter (you can search through my old posts to find a pic of it in my studio; I'm too lazy to do it myself), and it works as advertised.* * Disclaimer: I have a decent sounding room to begin...

Correct; it was to raise the whole drum kit. I'd have to see if I have any pictures of it - I recall the idea originally being in Modern Drummer magazine back in the mid 90's, when they ran a step-by-step pictorial of how they built the exact same thing. And yes, it was small! I was using a...

Look, man... your personal life is your own business. :eek: :D I think you're right on. From what I've heard first-hand, using a riser or "floating floor" for the drums isn't much different from what you can accomplish with a drumframe - which is one of those rack jobs that suspends the bass...

I'm with RimShot here... the jazz greats all had amazing control on their cymbals. Find a good teacher in your area and let him/her give you some guidance. It's hard to beat having someone actually watch you and make corrections. Here are a few video ideas for you, too: Primer video with...

Looks like a Zildjian A Custom in the video: Zildjian A Custom Ride There are a few variations (standard, medium, ping, projection) - but most the A Customs sound similar. There's obviously a good deal of technique that goes into the final sound (which the drummer in the video had a distinct...

You might have luck posting a WTB in the ads section of the forum. Shoot me a PM... I have a box of these laying around somewhere from a MD4 I used to use.

Alex, There are a few ways to do this, depending on the type of noise you're getting rid of. Here are the two most common: Situation 1: You have a vocal recording that was recorded in a poorly treated or noisy room. The vocals sound OK, but you can hear the fridge (or whatever) running in...

"Hi, I'd like to buy a new car. What's the best one to get?" :D:rolleyes::D OK, that's a little over the top. :) But the analogy is almost the same - we'd need a great deal of additional information to make a sane recommendation. 1. What is your "basic recording purpose?" Guitar and...
