    703 acoustical properties

    I used the rockboard 60 for my traps. Specs are actually slightly better than OC 703. I ordered form that site (ATS acoustics) Next time around I ordered the cheaper Roxul mineral wool. Specs are slightly worse than OC 703 but the stuff is so much cheaper you can use more of it and still come...

    Does the soundcard matter?

    Interesting. I'm pretty familiar with computer stuff, I'm a hardware support tech by trade. I've always assumed that a better sound card meant better audio processing. But you are right it could be any one component in the laptop that didn't handle audio well. Could it have to do with onboard...

    Does the soundcard matter?

    Doesn't a better sound card take some of the load of the CPU? You can use more effects, higher track count with a better sound card.? I seem to remember my laptop puking on some sessions that my far less powerfull desktop handled with no problem. Only thing I could put it down to was the pos...

    The Secret To Great Recordings

    I would certainly rather listen to a poor recording of a great performance than a great recording of a poor performance. That being said if I was to start this hobby from scratch knowing what I know now my first and highest priority would be room treatment and monitoring.

    snare mic

    Getting good results with a PG56 currently. Pretty similar to a 57. One of my favorites on snare is a MXL 991. I keep meaning to pick one up they are cheap as hell on ebay.

    Seriously Considering this...

    I'm no expert but I'm pretty sure the auralex would be prefect for that. Cheap and easy too.

    Plugins that make ur session go YEAH!!

    I really like the Timeworks EQ and compressor that came with my copy of Sonar 2.0. I don't use Sonar anymore those are my go to comp and EQ. Although I've been digging the EQ and comp that comes with reaper recently. It's really not the sound it's the interface, most eq and comp plugs sound...

    To dampen or not to dampen...

    We use moongels when we're jamming but we pull em off when we record. I do think we left one on the snare last time but I'm not sure. They sound better live dampened a bit but Greg is right that ringing really makes the toms sing in the mix. If you do decide to dampen them get the moongels...

    Quick (ie dumb) question!

    You might be able to hook up a SCSI zip drive or something similar you'd have to get a zip drive for the target PC too. That's what I did with my old sampler. I don't think you can hook directly to a computer with the SCSI port unless you have a SCSI card with a hard drive attached. Maybe a...

    Question on Recording Vocals

    Try one take using the 414 and one using the 58 and blend em together. Or you can use both at the same time just watch for phase issues.
