    Recording - getting return on investment and music legal stuff

    just thinking about the potential of the music - and making sure I wasn't going to create something for nothing that would make big bucks for someone else. With regard to use of english, rather than audio terminology; you need to work on your tone. Cheers everyone!

    Recording - getting return on investment and music legal stuff

    DavidK - I do own it, its on MY computer. They made sounds, I made recordings which are mine. If they sneaked in and took those recordings that would be theft. I have not spoken about charges with them. It was "you wanna do some recording with us, we got no cash"... I said "yeah sure, we'll...

    Recording - getting return on investment and music legal stuff

    I think I'll say its free till they use the tracks for anything. If its just to show the management that they are writing more stuff, thats fine. But if they intend to release/broadcast any of it, they can pay me. ... I suppose the next question is: How much!?! Their previous stuff was...

    Recording - getting return on investment and music legal stuff

    Pandamonk - obviously, it would not be the only disk - I would have the originals, in all formats and all the audio files dated individually - Physically and legally I would own the recordings. The band are good mates of mine, I would have done it for nothing anyway. ..and no I would not see a...

    Recording - getting return on investment and music legal stuff

    ...well the recordings are mine, and music is theirs. The copywrite of the recordings are mine. They could have the finished CD in their hands and I could refuse permission for them to use it. confused

    using Firepod with BCF2000 and Keyboard

    Hi, I use the BCF2000 control surface via MIDI (as I use Logic Platinum and the USB connection confuses it!). I Also have a MIDI keyboard. I wish to use them both at the same time via my Presonus Firepod interface. How do I daisychain them? I presume its something to do with the Thru port?

    mic'ing tiny toms

    Xstatic, finally someone who thinks on my wavelenght... and its all about wavelength with phasing. The overheads are generally placed by judgement rather than science. The distance from the snare compared to the distance between the snare and the top snare mic, will determine the nature of the...

    Recording - getting return on investment and music legal stuff

    they aren't signed to a label - they just have management, the management may wish to release it on their behalf (and take the arranged cut of profits). I intend to allow the band to send a cd or mp3 to the management (to show them the new material), but how do I "copywrite" (if thats the right...

    Recording - getting return on investment and music legal stuff

    Ok, I am recording a band. My gear is in their studio, so I'm their "in house producer" (if you like). I am not charging them... as they have no money to invest. They are managed by the same company as The Verve, Badly Drawn Boy, Klaxons... Their last record (produced as Olympic in London) is...

    mic'ing tiny toms

    invert, yes! unforgotten - cheers Good point about the drums been 1 instrument. I want to spread the "parts" out with a bit of pan hence needing a bit of separation. I'll try some 57s 3 inches out the bottom of the toms. I expect the transient volume to be very high there, so the gain on the...

    mic'ing tiny toms

    Hi, got a kit to record, with 2 tiny toms above the kick drum. If I put mics on top, they are going to get hit, as the drums are so small. I want to close mic them to reduce bleed. They have no skins on the bottom.... perhaps point a 57 into the bottom of each drum? If so, where exactly? cheers

    How to devide 11m x 5.7m space

    Fitz, yes, you are right - budget is an issue! and if I compromised at some part of the build I'm going to regret it later... and so big bucks would be required. I could end up spending thousands... not that I even have hundreds! I'm now thinking, just build a shit hot mix room... and do the...

    How to devide 11m x 5.7m space

    8ft to the ceiling joists, but could be left open into the roof space which would be approx 12ft at the top (i.e. a 4ft(approx) slanted roof) But deviding the rooms up right to the peak of the roof would be much more difficult than just insulating at ceiling level, right across

    How to devide 11m x 5.7m space

    Pandamonk, Really appreciate the design, I was just thinking I'd prefer a larger live room and smaller control room... if possible. Sorry to an arse!

    How to devide 11m x 5.7m space

    Yeah, I was thinking of doing CD duplication too. I thought I could get a discaounted rate at a local firm if I could send business their way, and take a cut myself. Also outsource album art, as I have graphic designer contacts. Also, a mate is a film producer and has done a couple of music...
