okay- i'll give it a shot. i don't think i know how to dampen a plate and i don't think i know which kinds of chorus are lush (never used chorus for anything since i tried to learn Purple Rain when I was in high school). Thanks a bunch for the specific pruduction suggestions. I'm curious to hear...

hey thanks guys i appreciate the kind words. it's true that some more rehearsal is definitely called for. i think maybe i'll just use a bit less compression and make some gentler changes and see how things go with different tunes. getting a good take is going to be a bigger challenge than...

the at4033 goes into an 01v, which goes into a motu2408 via a lightpipe. i think i just need to learn a lot more about sw mixing and mastering. the sound i'd like (once i'm better practiced) is something simple like the solo João Gilberto records i've heard only warmer and with less room...

http://boze.net/testbed/matt/standards/My_One_And_Only_Love.mp3 I still need to practice singing and playing this, but the reason I'm sending it to the clinic early is because I'm just starting out using my setup to record real music (rather than make electonic music or whatever) and I can...

yeah, i think i saw your recommendation in another thread when i searched for 'conga' before my post. but i searched at the online thingy for my local library and it didn't turn up anything. i also don't have a vcr- just dvd on my computer so.... i ended up getting a giovanni hidalgo dvd on...

thanks I ended up getting CONGA VIRTUOSO GUIVANNI HIDALGO DVD on ebay for $30 after shipping. It doesn't look basic enough but at least I'll be able to watch it without buying a vcr! did a hunt for that Garcia guy on ebay but it didn't turn up anything. Happy holidays everybody!

I can only find three to six year old vhs videos on conga technique at amazon and barnes&noble.com does anybody have any conga video recommendations for me?

=) okay, so i didn't give you very long to help out. i ended up getting what i thought was a nice deal at guitarcenter: the LP Performer series with the three drums- 11" quinto, 11 3/4" conga, and 12 1/2" tumba. i had initially struck a deal for the three drums and a double stand for $500...

I'm looking at a low, middle and high end option. For the low end I'm looking at the aspire series 10" and 11" (maybe even shopping on ebay, where they have buy-it-now auctions for like $210) Here's the middle priced option in a craigslist ad: --- CP Wood Congas for Sale- Like New! 10"...

good stuff i liked the changes in energy throughout that track. the wooing was a great addition i thought. that crash cymbol really bugged me- i'm less opposed to fake sounding drums since i like a lot of electronic music and hiphop. i also felt a little tripped up by the last sigh sample...

hi nassa- what you're recording and what you're playing back is a cubase thing then. you'd probably get a more informed response in the cubase forum, but the idea would be to record enable the track you're recording on while listening to the other tracks already recorded into cubase which would...

? what is your hardware setup again? what kind of mixer and soundcard and what software are you using?

i was glad to read this thread because since i'm a self-taught producer with mostly a dance/Reason background (read: no real recording or production skills) i'm weak on the fundamentals. that said, i don't think Maurice3000 needs to be the least bit freaked that all the cool kids are recording...

digital performer does this as well- not as cheap though.

i have a Genesis3 amp modeler (digitech's version of the Pod by Line6). it has a spdif out so i run it right to the in of my 01v. so if you were a guitarist you could do something like that. it's a nice way to lay down tracks right in front of your machine and it's not as flat as a line-out...

hey nassa- i'm sorry- i mean no offense. i was just looking at the frequency and consistency of posts that you were getting and feeling the love as far as how helpful the ppl are here. and i really am trying to do some solo guitar vocal recording myself and i'm also lacking some basic...

my goodness mark you are truly a patient man. i promise to come bothering you specifically when i get this rough cut of 'unchained melody' recorded. and i'm serious =)

thx p- the plugin world, while pretty affordable, isn't the route i'm trying to go- i know there are good solutions- i've heard great things about altiverb for example. but i have an interest in learning this mixing process because i'm not taking advantage of the fx on my 01v. plus i'm flat...
