Actually, Could I make this work?: I was working on recording a mandolin part bla bla bla. Anyway, I put an Audio Technica 2020 or whatever the 99 dollar one is called, into the tascam dp o1fx and out of the head phone jack I plugged a guitar amplifier. I played the...

Where does one find Public Mix Contest 11( or any of 'em)? That sounds really Effin' interesting. BAQW

Thank you all!

Thanks Frogs!

Why would anyone pay a professional engineer to mix something that had been recorded at home? What would be the advantage/disadvantages of this setup? And recording drums? What if everything was recorded by someone with little experience in a setting that wasn't really fair to any music and...

Richard Monroe, You're the best!

Please anyone willing, Here's your homework: Explain a vocal recorded in stereo to a person who is very intelligent, but lacks any recording experience or knows the jargon. Make it sound interesting and inviting. You are an avant garde teacher. A painter with no knowledge of how to build...

Dearest Blue Bear sound or whoever else may be watching, Let's say it's the only form of reverb a guy can produce. Is this gonna "fool" the headhone or speaker listener into thinking the shit is actually recorded in the cave that Yogi Bear lost his innocence in?

So the general consensus is: record an electric guitar amplifier with a shure SM57(yes I know you can do it other ways you jerk, but this seems to be the standard) Now, using the reverb option on an amplifier(also a feature on gasoline/electric hybrid automobiles) and recording with a Shure...

Okay...We all know that to mic in a stereo fashion we need the XY(blobbidy blah bla bla)pattern, and a matched pair of mics. Can this be done with dynamic microhones? 2 57's? This may be a bad question. K

Kilowatt, You're the greatest!

Thank ya's. So, suggestions on what I can do myself?

Does anyone have any advice on how to get my machine up and running? I have a Tascam 22-4. The tape slows to a halt eventually in recrod and playback. Some people say it's old tape build-up, some say it's other things. My question is what can I do without the aid of a professional. I have...

To Change the Subject I thank everyone for their reply. On the other hand though, when is a room to echoey/reverby/ambient/live? On behalf of everyone here at Homer Recording Dot Com, I'd like to thank Ethan Winer

Is it possible to have a room that is too dead? Could this ever be a good thing? I'm all for ambience and the reverbs that occur in rooms, but when people talk about deadening a room, how far is good enough/too far?

let's hear that shit!

I was doing some reading and came to another conclusion. Many singers get a proper technique going by singing with their heads tilted up to allow their throats to open more. The microphone being upside down puts the singer closer to the diaphragm rather than the mic being right side up leaving...

Often times in pictures of musicians in studios, there are really big, expensive looking condenser and ribbon microphones. Okay is everyone with me? Here is my question: Why is it that sometimes the microphones are upside down as if to be hanging from the ceiling or a tall stand and sometimes...

What are ribbon mics and what makes them so cool/dumb?
