    Recording Chain (Front End)

    Mine is very humble, used mainly used for drums and goes: 2 mics go into Emu 1820 and the rest go into my korg 168rc then via lightpipe to the emu pci card then into Reaper. https://homerecording.com/bbs/attachment.php?attachmentid=75798&d=1353241725

    Rain falls, what do you guys think?

    Cheers. Yea the intro used to be much shorter, but I found it didn't set you up very well for when the beat breaks off and the film sample comes in. Just wondering if this track needs anything else? what do you think?

    I think I am getting there with this mix, uk punk song

    Cheers, I am battling with my monitoring at the moment, I am cross referencing against different systems nearly every adjustment I make :( As for the tom, I hear what you are saying; I have drum replacement on it and have since blended with the original a little more and moved it right a...

    I think I am getting there with this mix, uk punk song

    I recorded a few months back and have since switched to Reaper, I am sure it has had a positive effect on my mixes. What do you guys think of this one. I am aware one of the guitars may be slightly out of tune :spank: I am going to blame a dodgy tuner :rolleyes: That track will be replaced at...

    Rain falls, what do you guys think?

    This is a track I wrote years ago but have only just found someone to do the vocals for it. It is not mastered, not sure if its even finished to be honest! I would like your opinions please. Ben http://www.soundclick.com/player/single_player.cfm?songid=12029609&q=hi

    Problem room and drum tracking!

    Cheers. Yea I had spare channels so stuck it up there for the sake of it really! I know what you mean about the overheads, I tested them properly today and it seems one sounds different to the other, even though they are a "stereo pair"... same channel, place and leads. I will post up...

    Problem room and drum tracking!

    Hi. I have started recording for my band and am really struggling with the room sound amongst other things. I have managed a half decent sound with eq and compression but am looking to get a better raw sound to begin with. Here is the room: As you can see I have a very low ceiling, I am...

    Two songs from my band, hopefully part of an EP

    I have added main vocals, and remixed a little. Criticism please! Hi, thanks for the response. I hear what you are saying about the distortion on the guitar, I think it maybe the speaker I chose to mic(its a 2x12 marshall) I would never be able to get the gain turned down as the guitarist has...

    Two songs from my band, hopefully part of an EP

    Hi from the UK :) Below are some two recordings from last weekend, which I tracked at our practice space and I would like to hear your critique on them. I have been recording a while but am fairly fresh with recording whole bands. After recording a cd album last year, in a studio we have...

    My Kit is now finished, complete with monster kick

    Cheers guys. Yea I ditched a tom for two reasons.. it was a really cheap one and I have always prefered a minimal kit :) I chopped the lesser drum in half, then used the ring (a normal hoop with an inch or two removed) and drilled through it and the shell then hammered/glued in dowl, all...

    Should I stop here?

    I have tried mixing with a few others but it took me so long to learn Fl studio that for the sake of effort I have stuck with it! Yes I'm sure you can I will have a look in a minute. To be fair the raw tracks were not all that great and starting with a better sound from there would benefit me...

    My Kit is now finished, complete with monster kick

    A month or so back I decided that rather than spend ££££ on a new kit I would completely rework my existing one. It is mainly Premier XPK with a mapex rack tom and half of another XPK bass drum joined on. The kick Sounds surprisingly punchy considering how long it is, also teamed with an...

    Should I stop here?

    Ah I think I see where you are coming from, so use the individual drums like you would the overheads ie, use them to supplement the overall compressed kit sound? Yep, a recording console into my emu 1820m via adat then into ableton. And mixing in Fl studio, just because i am familiar with it ;)...

    Should I stop here?

    I haven't added much comp to the drums, as its not my strong point... would you add comp to the kit as a whole or on the individual tracks.. or both? Also the guitar is recorded through Revalver, but when tracking the band it will be mic'd with an sm57 from a marshall.

    Should I stop here?

    Ok, I see what you are saying. I would have thought the extra guitar we will use would help with the beefyness, also recording the actual bass as opposed to my strat pitched down :rolleyes: Hopefully recording in our new room will help with the general sound also. So with a bit more tweaking...
