    Which mic for guitar amps

    I've used quite a few mics for guitar amps and I guess I'm "old school" for I ALWAYS go back to a shure SM 57 4 or 5 inches from the cone and in a 45 degree angle. Carlos

    Which Neumann Mic???

    Why don't you find a good microphone dealership (music instrument store) and test a few microphones. Compare them on how they sound to you and not their brand. Maybe for your needs a Shure KSM 32 might be more useful than a 103 and for half the price. Neumanns are awesome, and so are...

    Albums with best sounding acoustic guitars???

    I don't know if a nylon string played with a pick applies in the "accoustic" category but if it does then Strunz and Farah's - Primal Magic would be my choice. I've heard a few things by Jake E Lee played on acoustic gtrs that were awesome too. Too bad I can't remember the name of that album...

    Need a Sonar 3.0 producers edition Manual

    I was negligent enough to park my un-insured vehicle with all the doors open and the keys inside. It got stolen so NOW, I have the right to steal another one from the dealership (hey, I had already paid for one right?) and I'm bright enough to admit to be driving a stolen car because I had...

    My new kick mic

    Looks very ingenious and cool. I'm sure there is no reason for that not to sound good.... I mean, huge diaphram... hmmm... makes me want to hear it though. Great idea!!! Carlos

    Sonar 2 with M-Audio Delta 1010lt

    I use the 1010lt with sonar and they both work beautifully together. The only issue is that you do have to have a few mic preamps if you're planning on recording the overheads with condenser mics. My default for the 1010lt for drums is like this: -Kick mic goes to track 1 which accepts an XLR...

    Sonar 3.0 News

    One thing that I have always advocated for and strongly believe is that SONAR should have a built in spectrum analyzer per track. That, IMHO would benefit us that use Sonar a TON!!!! It would be so awesome to have even a crappy little spectrum analyzer that you could click on for every track...

    Not dead...

    Guys.. I'm not dead either.... I've also been really busy with work... being now part owner of a small sportsbook and online casino and given the fact that NFL and most of the soccer leagues have started (I JUST LOVE SOCCER) I had to get away from the studio for a little while. But I'm back...

    Sonar 3 in Oct?

    I hope it comes with a "grid function" for precise editing; oh and a spectrum analyzer on each track would be awesome to be able to see. Carlos

    New Prog Rock Track!!!

    Thanks for the replies... here's a few answers to the comments: I am going to add a slight delay on the choral parts to smoothen it out a bit. I'm going to eq out some of the low mids on the snare, maybe boost just a tad in the 2k-4k range to make it sound a little "higher pitched". There are...

    Rule of thumb?

    I don't understand how 6 cymbals can be silly. I recorded a drummer the other day that had the best cymbal setup I've heard so far; he used 9 cymbals that were: All Zildjian 1.- KZ Dyno Beat 13" hats 2.- 8" K custom dark splash 3.- 10" K splash 4.- 14" A custom fast crash 5.- 16" K custom...

    What eq/effects would you use

    pretty much the same answers... 1.- Eq cutting everything except 1khz, boost the 1k just a bit and compress to taste. 2.- Eq cutting everyhing above 6khz and below 250 hz, add heavy compression. Here´s a trick, record a clock radio, or a tv set with just static noise and blend that with the...
