DEFINITELY subscribe to TapeOp. It's a great magazine. It's free! There's NO reason to not get it. I also like Recording Magazine (www.recordingmag.com).

this guy isn't serious...there's no way

okay? so this has nothing to do with microphones.

The SansAmp and The Brick are both excellent choices. You may also want to look into an M-Audio Tampa...I've had good results using its DI.

For mixing and anything that needs critical listening, monitors are the way to go. But, personally, I like headphones when I'm just listening for enjoyment.

try a search if you'd like. the best answers will come from your own experiments and experience. and threshold and ratio are both dependant on too many factors.

like everyone else, i prefer to record it twice. but if for some reason i decide not to, i will go into the audio editor and zoom in as far as i have to so that i can manually line the two tracks up to be in phase with each other.

i pretty much always compress while tracking...i just make sure i don't kill the dynamics.

are you wanting a mixer for the purpose of a mixer, or are you just in need of four channels of pres?

yeah...just go with an SM57 and save your extra $210.

I don't know why you would get one pair of monitors for mixing demos and a different pair for mixing albums. If you want to test the way a mix sounds on different monitors, then that's one thing. But, to not use the ADAM monitors just because it's not a full-length cd doesn't make much sense...

i think the best thing would be to get a divorce.

if you have $250 to spend, you might as well spend $90 on an SM57 and use the rest for an LDC (maybe an Audio Technica AT2020)

If i were you, i'd get a matched pair of Josephson C42 mics. a matched pair runs around $900. and the single, non-matched run at about $400 each.

this something you should DEFINITELY jump on

i think it all depends on how seriously you're wanting to take it. if you just want to roll of the low-end to get rid of the low end, then that would work to some extent. i have bass traps. i LOVE my bass traps. i think they're the best purchase i've made. but, my mixing involves much more...

i rarely have to EQ my synths much at all other than just to fit them into the context of the song. the sounds are created to sound as good as possible from the start. but, if certain frequency are stepping all over each other, then it would be a good idea to try to get some of them out of the...

Delta 1010....but, buying 8 channels of preamps (and the cables) in addition to this can start to become a little expensive.

My vote goes to M-Audio. The Delta 1010 is a great unit for the money.

every condensor mic i've ever bought came with some kind of foam padding in the box or case. i just grabbed the foam out of my C1000s cases (since those mics never get touched anyway) and it seems to do a good job.
