    Allen & Heath WZ16:2DX ? about subgroups

    finally I finally tracked a band to 8 track (1/2") with this board. I think it sounds fantastic. Really clear and warm sound. The EQ is very gentle and accurate. I love this board after using it for 3 days. It's also super easy to learn. I used all 6 auxes for submixes (drums, a headphone...

    Allen & Heath WZ16:2DX ? about subgroups

    sorta I just got this board and can try to answer the best i understand your question. If you wanted to submix your drums you use channels 1-8 and you can send them all to Aux 1 + 2 by turning up Aux 1+2 knobs on the channel. Then from the back, Aux 1+2 would be your 2 channels of submix. It's...

    What to buy ????

    What kind of recording? Just you? Whole band? How many inputs would you need? You could get by fairly inexpensively with a pci card from M audio like the delta series and a nice board from Soundcraft or Allen+Heath. Mics is a whole other world. That's why there is a whole forum for it. I don't...

    Overheads!

    2 is not quite the magic # Yes. 2 mics in both cases. No sound samples with the T3 unfortunately because it was for a radio show and i haven't gotten my hands on the recording yet. I've also really wanted to try and just set up the T3 in front of the kit. The idea is to get the sound of the...

    Overheads!

    <<<< puts on flame-retardant suit >>>> If the room is decent i've had really good luck with an sm57 as an overhead or micing the side of the kit. It takes the edge off the over-zealous cymbal hitter-person and tends to be softer than a condensor. Try it. Just an FYI: I recently tried the...

    to quote sherman keene: air is the best mixer.

    studio projects t3 vs the neumann tlm103

    The T3 is the first large diaphram mic i've actually liked for my acoustic guitar (silvertone archtop with dull percussive tone). I like setting up a condenser (previously a small condenser) so i can sing and play and i found that the T3 gives me a more balanced level of voice+gui and desirable...

    Getting vocals to soar (Incubus style)...

    I actually downloaded this song to hear it. Seventh and apush answered your question quite well i guess but i just wanted to say i did research! :) I hear much compression and perhaps a bit of shelving around the instruments. The lows on the voice seemed to be quite controlled too. Most...

    Stereo or Mono?

    As people mentioned before, it is cheap and easy to get a stereo reverb that has a mono in to stereo out. You don't need much to make it give it some space. If your machine has effects sends/returns then it will make your job even easier. I used to use the boss RV-3 stereo reverb/delay for that...

    So im watching the lawrence welk show ...

    You know the scenario: At the grandparents (or in a community with a high ratio of retirees) and lawrence welk is on. What are those silver slender mics with the larger ball end and flat top? All of the singers and orchestra have them and things sound great, but are they just props (mics not the...

    Stereo or Mono?

    i stumbled upon this article by accident about mic techniques in mono and stereo. good stuff. it goes into some nice detail about the pros/cons of stereo in the context of multiple mics and orchestras. http://www.sospubs.co.uk/sos/1997_articles/mar97/stereomictechs2.html

    Stereo or Mono?

    Cool. It's good to ask questions even if you think they are dumb (questions aren't dumb - people are! :) ). Chances are if you've made an effort to research it and come up blank this is a great place to ask because of the broad range of approaches and answers to a question. windowman: you are...

    Tracking a monosignal through 2 tracks on a mixer

    it doesn't sound like it's a problem. why would you pan 2 of the same signals left and right? (asking so i can maybe better answer your question)
