    How do I get the "punch" that a commercial recording has?

    As for you losing the other instruments a compressor will bring out all of the things you try to cover up (bad acoustics cheap gear) Dynamic response is just as important as frequency response this may be one of your problems and is often overlooked. Could either be because you are squashing...

    Live sound question 3!!!and 4!!!!

    Yeah you're right but you can't trust your ears after a few songs during rehersal. I've enforced the rule that no one in the band is allowed to touch their volume knob after we start the set list. Told them the amp volume hasn't changed your ears are just starting to fatigue. We would start...

    I think Mackie should anounce..

    So what if the wood in their cabs is actually cardboard theyre practically free. Still better than radioshack...i think...maybe....For the record I used to own a Behringer XM8500 was an excellent talkback mic. Its like fastfood you buy it cause its cheap then you regret it later.

    Borrowing Equipment

    Well heres the latest update we were told that they found another system to use for 50 bucks (peavey PV118 subs (2) some kind of peavey mains single 15s no monitors and a behringer powered mixer) Didn't say anything about mics. I still plan on bringing my stuff to use for our band. I wonder...

    TASCAM US-2000 Power Amp/Speakers Setup

    yes it works great for that especially if you want to have fun and add some effects just be careful with the latency! But if you have in mixed between the input and the computer for the output the volume will be 2 low like they said and you will need a preamp. I've used this approach to add...

    Borrowing Equipment

    Thanks, you're obviously very experienced in the subject. I had no intentions of getting into live sound professionally I just wanted to be independent with my band which is why I got into recording. So you're right theyre looking it from a business perspective and I'm looking at it from a...

    Borrowing Equipment

    thanks that helps alot. I just hate even thinking that I'm being selfish though. I always wanted to be able to help little people get started but I've learned recently after getting ripped off several times that its not that simple. I'm from a small town in the south I've been raised to stop...

    Borrowing Equipment

    I really need some help on this one. I'm playing a gig this weekend and we are the opening act so we aren't getting but half the pay as everyone else and they asked me to do sound for them which involves setting up for each band and letting them use my equipment. I've got a pretty decent set...

    Live sound question 3!!!and 4!!!!

    Back to the original statement. I believe the problem is your speakers. I use 2 yorkville y115 cabs for practice and I am running them off of a 100watt PA head thats old as dirt. You can hear everything fine. I promise you. You need to work with speakers with good SPL not wattage. (the...

    Need A Track Mixed..Pro Tools....Free Doh...But Ill Start Paying If I Like Ur Work

    Had a similar situation happen to me but with a christian rock band. I hate to jump on the train with everyone else yungdeva but you could consider being a little bit more humble. Frankly If someone were nice enough to spend the time to mix my music for me because I couldn't and even if their...

    Have SM58 with Tapco 6306...want to improve quality of the voice being recorded pleas

    I don't have any experience with the NT1-A but I own the Nt2-a and Its very clean and flat Its a VERY honest microphone and for the price range I'd say its better than anything close. Always take bad reveiws with a grain of salt.

    Down sized to 5w tube for gigs.

    i always wanted some of that sexy marshall full stack wallpaper..friends got a 4x12 cab thats missing 2 speakers it sounds terrible. But if you plug up the holes with some clothes or something it sounds less terrible. It certainly isn't the same sound as an open back cab.
