Do you have any personal experience with these mics? Thanks, Don.....

Notsure. This is the site I visited Violet Microphones US – Violet microphones US Don.....

Has anyone here used or know anything about Violet Microphones? I just joined their forum and they have several mics available. Not planning on buying one but I'd be interested to know something about them. Thanks, Don.....

Thanks everyone. I never thought that the file type would determine how the CD is played. Though I haven't proven that is the cause it seems to make perfect sense. I was putting a CD together of some original songs so I could pass it on to friends who are going to record some parts in the...

Not sure if this is where this post should go. Someone can move it if that's a must. Has anyone experienced this: I burned some original songs on a cd, All MP3's. I set them in a particular order and printed that order on the CD. When finished I played the CD on my computer and it all sound...

I'm thinking about adding another condenser mic to my studio. I have 2 condensers now, a TLM 103 and an AT3525. I'd like to add another Mic that would provide a difference from the other two. I've been looking at tube mics but I don't know anything about them or really their purpose. Truth...

Ok so I figured it out and though the answer to my problem is personally embarrassing I think I should post it for those who may have similar problems and for everyone who took the time to answer and offered help. The distortion came because I had part of my chain full "on". Here's some detail...

Thanks for the article Mack. I guess I've got to work on my technique some more. I've recorded lots of songs but this one with the increases in volume at the end of the verses has been difficult. I usually do set my inputs to range from -18db to-12db ut i tried even lower for this song...

I'm having difficulty recording a vocal and could use some advice and or suggestions. At the end of many of the lines in the song the volume gets loud. That's just the way it is sung. This causes some distortion. I've pulled the input back to -22 db's with spiking about 17/18. However I...

Thanks everyone. Some good feedback. Just what I was hoping for. Don.....

I have the TLM 103. Bought it back around the turn of the century. I like it although I find it somewhat on the high end (audially). I've gotten some pretty good sounding vocals from it years ago, however I've been using it recently and I've struggled to capture what I got from it back...

Ok with that said how would I use a reference track? Maybe a better question would be how would you use a reference track? Would using multiple reference tracks for one song make sense? Like a reference track for how a vocal should sound or maybe how you'd like the guitars to sound, possibly...

Would someone help me with the use of reference tracks? If I understand correctly, it's a song which is used when mixing and mastering your own song. Try to make your song sound like the reference song. Is this correct? I may have that wrong but would some explain how this is supposed to...

Do most of you use1 pair of monitor speakers or do you have different sets of speakers in your studio so you can compare the mix and get a mix that will sound good most everywhere? Thanks, Don.....

Not sure if this is the best place to get an answer to this but here goes. I purchased the XR18 to use as a mixer when I do gigs, which isn't very often. I've had the mixer for almost 2 years and am about to do my 4th gig. However I use it more in my studio for recording and jamming. So it...

I'm looking for feedback on vocal mics. I have 2 large condenser mics. A TLM 103 that I bought about 12 years ago and an AT3525 bought about the same time. I have some Shure Sm 57 and 58's and a couple of other mics of this type. I haven't used the TLM for a long time and now when I record...

Thanks everyone for your replies and suggestions. I have given the Rea efx a try. Although I'm not sure how to use them exactly. Which brings me to other questions. But first a little background on me, what I'm doing and what I'd like to accomplish. I'm older than many of you I suppose...

I'd be interested if anyone here uses Reaper. If so, what do you use, or how do you "master" your songs? Here's what I'm trying to get to. When songs are Rendered to 2 tracks, or bounced, the end product has volume levels that are much lower than commercially produced songs. I'm trying to...

I downloaded the demo version of EZDrummer, so I've got 9 days left to evaluate it. I use Reaper as my DAW. I'm hoping to find someone who uses both to give me some advice. I created a drum track in EZD and pulled it into a Reaper track. The problem is, there is no volume. I can see the...
