    Electric interference?! or is it?

    I have a problem that has never happened before. I was recording with a Delta 1010 into Sonar and I have been doing this for a long time without this problem ever happening. I've been fixing my studio and have made some changes that include a new electric outlet (grounded like the other...

    mic'ing bass - dynamic or condenser

    Same here, I used to mic the bass cab with a 52 or D112 mixed with the DI until I saw a great recording engineer use an SM57 mixed with the DI. 2 weeks ago I recorded bass tracks and used 3 signals: SM 57 about 10 cm from the cone at a 30-40 degree angle pointed towards the center. KSM 32 on...

    help with monitors placement etc...

    Hi there, For the past few weeks I've been fixing my recording studio. My control room is rectangular, measuring 3.35 meters, by 3.17 meters wide and 2.44 meters high. The studio is 3.35 by 4.35 on one side and 4.65 on the longer side (the 30 cm difference was so that the back wall would not...

    Using Outboard effects

    you can use outboard effects with Sonar. It does depend on your sound interface, however, but the answer to your Q is yes!

    ASIO driver help!

    Thanks, I did look into the 828mk3 and it looked awesome but I figured that some of the things that it had over the 8pre were things that I already had with the 1010lt... and unfortunately I already purchased the 8pre and it should get to Costa Rica next Monday... I have looked into getting the...

    ASIO driver help!

    Thanks, I guess I'm going to mess around longer with the asio4all drivers and see if I multiple interfaces working that way... this is going to be a problem to me if I cannot sort it out because I like having the 1010lt for the outs, midi and spdif and the extra channels if I ever need more than...

I then started Sonar 6 PE and although the audio options on Sonar has the M...

    Question about people you record with.....

    On of the trickiest part of recording is the honest feedback... Musician after a mediocre take: "that was pretty good. Let's go to the bridge now." Engineer: "hmm... let's hear it once more to make sure your timing was right" Customer service for a recording engineer is tough, and you have to...

    Acoustic Guitar

    How about trying to cut rather than boost with the EQ... Get a freq all the way UP, put the Q of it to a narrow one and move it around as you playback the recorded GTR. Find the frequencies that bother you or that you find "unpretty" and then cut those out a bit...
