Ok, I figure that's what I'll do. But any tips or techniques on mic placement? It's a little mic, that clamps onto the snares drums rim. Should I have the mic angled down straight at the drums? or higher and a little away from the drum? I have it angled at 45 degrees 1 and a half inches over...

I do not have two matched mics for two overheads. I was thinking of getting a preamp so I can to the two toms through the preamp, and then do kick, snare and overhead for 4 tracks. Any tips on mic placement?? Does it have to do with cardoroid pattern? No tips on EQing in?? I cannot get a...

I have a 4 peice cad drum mic set. I use the snare and the kick drum mics, and then one radioshack mic for the overhead, since I can only record 4 tracks at a time onto my 8 track tascam 488mk11. I'm getting a set of nady cheap condesser mics, the scm900 and the cm90. i will use the cm90 for the...

nobody? hello???

oh heh, I have the 488mkII tho. sorry. dunno if it's much different

er another question, do I really need to clean the heads? How often, and how?! I bought it used for 130 bucks off ebay. everything works perfectly. A tiny bit of noise on the 4th channel trim, but that's it. peice of plastic missing on the corner like it was dropped. no problems at all though...

could I get an example of the cheap reverb things? I can't find anything except guitar pedals.

what exactly is tape compression too? It has DBX which I have on all the time. I could just use that? That's compression? Or is Gate what I've been asking about this whole time. Could I just use a guitar pedal for reverb?

But you didn't answer. What about the alesis 3060 or wutever. It's 99 bucks. I want something that'll do everythign I need basically. Drums, acoustic guitar, voice. But it don;'t gotta be great, just respectable.

I'm not sure I understand your problem. The way I use it, I keep the mic plugged into the first channel the whole time. Then when I want to record another track I set the track to 2 and turn the panning to the right channel. If I want to record on the third track, I switch it to the third, then...

So don't get a 3630 alesis compressor? The RNC ones are nicely priced. How would I get reverb though, what would I have to buy and how would I hook it up?

Could I use a cheap Alesis compressor with my 8-track cassette 488 mkII tascam? Also, what do I do about reverb??? And other effects. and what if I have two powered mics?

I want to mix my tapes down to stereo on my computer but it doesn't have a stereeo jack or anything. is there anything i can do?
