Yup, you're correct. I've only miced a grand piano before, but doing an upright is basically the same but in a different shape. If you're only using one mic, yes, you should probably place it above the piano in the middle with the top open. It should be close to the opening, but not in the...

There's a song my band does that I want to record as if it sounds like I'm singing into a walkie talkie... So I think I will. My scanner has a 1/8" output. ;)

Recording software for Mac: Cubase Logic Pro Tools Deck At lease, these are the only programs I've used. There are a couple others. GarageBand is fine for basic recording if you have enough RAM. Once you find some software, then we can talk about monitoring.

I don't know what the mic technique is, but maybe this article would be useful. http://www.recordingproject.com/articles/article.php?article=25

The only example I can think of is Michael Jackson's Thriller (album version) the very beginning before the music starts sounds like the noises are coming from behind. I've never really analyzed why it sounds that way.

Well, there's the I use B minor and G chords a lot, but that's just me. ;) With my 1010LT and Yamaha MG10/2, I use a Hosa RCA to 1/4" snake. The RCAs plug into the inputs of the 1010LT, and the 1/4" end goes into the insert jacks of the mixer (and some of the other buses where I don't have...

I think you're right, nuemes... People are getting far too carried away right now. This was a serious question, and most people gave sarcastic or outright mean responses. What kind of example is that. To put it bluntly, masterbymail is basically a fraudulent mastering company. For $100 you...

Sounds like different pickup patterns... which I know nothing about...

You're right. It is quite busy. The vocals need more space between each other. It almost sounds like something's out of phase. 0_o You can try panning the backup vocals out farther. The second guitar on the right sounds too low. I should just throw it out there that there are some weird pitchy...

People all over this board complain about how Behringer products are crap. It's usually best to avoid them if at all possible. I'd agree, get a Yamaha board. I did, and I'm happy with it. Always use a real line out from your board. Headphone outputs are not designed for recording from.

If you can't buy a new soundcard, you won't be able to use the optical outputs.

Oh boy, I can't wait to hear this...

These all seem very nice, but more expensive than I expected. :P I might as well buy another Delta card at those prices. (Though I wouldn't get the preamps, lol)

Hi all, I'm looking for an inexpensive preamp solution with SPDIF output so I can make use of the extra two channels (SPDIF) on my Delta 1010LT card. Is there anything anyone can suggest? I may even be able to go the [gag] Behringer route if the cost is effective.

This is a rather grey area. But of course, it's done all the time. I haven't exactly looked at it, but we have two cover songs on our website for my band (in video format, actually, from a live show) and no complaints yet. We plan on recording them for our album and getting the proper ASCAP/BMI...

Wow, looks good, and great price. Thanks!

Well, it's either a 57, my AT 58-like mic, or the MXL 990 or 991 (which I own two of) on the kick. So in effect I'll have 8 mics (4 condenser, 4 dynamic), but I only planned to use 6 of them, this being for a studio album recording session.

Hi all, I just bought 3 of the GLS 57 clones, because I heard many good things about them, and that they are equal or better than the Shure 57s. However, when I plugged it into my board, the signal level sounds lower than that of my other dynamic, an audio technica vocal mic w/ pop screen. I...

Using a 57 on vocals? I dunno. Not as much detail as a condenser.

The new iMac G5s are very nice. ;)
