Question here as well. Is that a velvet or synthetic velvet on the panels?

Garage, disconnected from the house. It's a two car garage, with two levels. I wasn't allowed to use the entire thing since my wife wanted storage on the main floor. The upstairs is too small anyway, only 6 foot 1 down the middle. Anyway, we took a chunk on the end, and put up a wall that...

Meh who cares. I'd tap it.

Hey good name for a band :) Question about miking toms. Currently I've been miking two rack toms with their own mikes for recording. I do this for control purposes, but I'm wondering if I should switch to one mike in the middle of each instead of using two. I only have 6 channels available...

Not sure if this has been mentioned, but Roxul safe n sound can be purchased at Home Depot in Western Canada. I used the stuff to hang and line every wall in our rehersal space. Also, just in case this hasn't been mentioned, there a video on youtube with steps on how to build bass traps...

Heh, sorry I meant 4 corners :) Thanks for the link! Edit: On a related topic, any advice on where I should position my work station? I currently have it positioned in the middle of one of the longest walls in a 10.5 x 21 foot room. I'm thinking of moving it to the middle of one of the...

We used a keyboard with a midi interface for the bass, with no added eq. The preset just sounds that way, but its far too bassy I agree. However, it was the most realistic bass sound we could find in the bunch. I'm going to try and play with cutting lows and maybe a little boosting in the...

Thanks for checking it out. The insulation is about 4 inches thick I think, but I'll look into making some bass traps for the corners of the room if that will help. I agree that it's pretty bass heavy overall and def needs some tweeking. I've been trying to learn more about eq etc so I'm eager...

I just ran into the garage/studio room and downloaded an mp3 sample and took a quick snap shot of the space while I was at it. https://img.photobucket.com/albums/v473/Drakaland/studio.jpg The blue bats shown are on every wall including the door. They are filled with soundproof insulation (that...

Hi Danny. I'll try to get a rough Mp3 sample up over the next day. Cheers

I gave it a test on my yamaha pc speakers and it sounds pretty good to me, much like the Tascams. However, the sound didn't reproduce very well on a pair of very crappy PC speakers at my buddy's house, nor on his ear buds. Overall, I'm wondering why the pro music I'm referencing sounds so bass...

I'm fairly new to the entire recording and mixing process. Been slogging through it for about 7-8 months now. I'm using Tascam VLX5 reference monitors. I know referencing and mixing is a subjective process, but here's my dilema. Our current mixes sound very good to my ear on the Tascams. Very...

Anyone know if there's a Canadian dealer/retailer for these mics?

Me too. The place I'm buying from is a Canadian Powerseller and claims to be a Shure dealer. The box shot they have posted looks legit and the price isn't spectacular so I'm confident it's all good, but we'll see when it gets here.

Sucking air with a tight puckered mouth in front of a mic, al la whistle style, is also good for creating a wind sound.

I'd tap it.

Nice man! After Xmas I'm going on the hunt for a deal like that.

Is that a new SM7 for $250? If so can you tell me where? I saw a used one on Ebay for $257.

Nice. I just nabbed a new factory sealed one off of Ebay for $70 Cnd, although I have to pay shipping on top of that. Still works out about $15 bucks cheaper than the local store. I also noticed a number of SM7b's on Ebay for what appears to be pretty good deals. As low as $290 CND brand new...

Thanks for the responses guys. It makes more sense now. I was fiddling last night andwas like a kid in the candy store. Gunna have to go back and rip out the eq pluggins and start again with fresh ears, but that's half the fun. Danny, yes I meant ReaEQ. I think I'm used to seeing the word...
