    Everybody - Recorded on a Korg D8 in 2009

    https://audiomonsterrecords.com/track/452499/everybody?autostart=true Here's to hoping that the copy/paste widget works:guitar: Of course I used some preamp and outboard gear but I kept it basic. The Korg D8 has only two 1/4 inch inputs so I had to get very crafty by running drum mics kick...

    Gibsonafied Epiphone

    So a few years back (2010) I saw this Epiphone LP Standard in a music store located in a town I was gigging in. I immediately loved the honey burst finish on it. So yes, I plopped down the cash without thinking twice. When I returned home I was eager to put this newbie up against my other Les...

    My drum room makeover

    So I had no choice but to make a huge change to my 7-7 FT drum room. The rest of my place looks great, but for some reason I've always neglected the drum room. I didn't plan on doing all this in one day, but I did. It was exhausting! But I'm very happy now and it sounds so much better then...

    A mixing problem I may be blind to?

    This song is typical of my mixes. I love giving the drums their own space in the mix. Question is.. am I going overboard with this thinking and mixing them a little to loud? Our drummer (deaf to his own instrument) (sorry Kirby) likes this. I like it too! However, since joining this forum I've...

    Tascam DP-32SD Not for real drums.

    So I received this machine for Christmas. Looks nice, I guess. This was not meant to replace anything I normally use but something I would be willing to take out of the house for certain projects. I have finally found some time to spend with it and dive into recording my live drum kit. My God...

    Waylon Jennings cover

    I'm a HUGE Waylon fan (even though I'm a metalhead) I got my band to agree to record this song with me. I had to bring in a harmonica player and had never recorded a harmonica before. I'm not overly happy with the result but I plan to bring other harp players in, in the future. Any advice on...

    Your Recording/Producing Mistakes

    Here is an audio example of a huge disservice to the Shure KSM32 microphone. Situation: The vocalist had a very monotone somewhat lifeless voice, so I needed to spice it up. You can hear the excessive chorus effect and high end applied during the recording and production process. I had...

    Your first condensor MIC was?

    Mine was the AT3525. At the time I wasn't even sure what I was looking for, I had a budget and I had to stick to it. 15 years later I still use it from time to time on finger picked acoustic guitar and sometimes I'll pull it out for certain singers backing vocals.

    Reverbs & Drums

    Back before I had any kind of recording gear, whatever band I was in at the time would have to find a place to record our stuff. It was always a huge struggle to get the guy/studio owner to use any kind of reverbs on drums (I'm primarily talking about the snare and toms) I never understood...

    The AT4060 - KSM44

    I'm about to purchase the KSM44 (I love that mic!!) However, I've always been a fan of Audio Technica and have many of them. Question, does anybody have any experience with the AT4060? It's a ribbon, I know, but hell or high water I'm getting myself one or the other for Christmas. As I said I...

    Best Built/Made Microphones

    The reason I ask: From time to time you, or somebody else WILL drop one of your baby's.. I have had a few MIC's fall/drop from various heights over the years (almost in slow motion while I yell at God, "WHY!?!") An AT4033 from 7FT up on to my hardwood floor. No deleterious effects to report...

    Recording Client Nightmares

    I run my 600 SQ FT home studio out of half of my basement (it's all walled off and very much its own little world) Besides recording my own two bands I also record other locals. A few years ago a guy who has recorded many songs at my place needed to bring in this one particular well known bass...

    Discontinued microphones you wish they didn't..

    The ATM61HE, I have two of these. They are pretty versatile and I prefer them to a 58 for live vocals as they are a little more on the crisp side. They look good too. I don't know when they discontinued these beauts, or why, but I like them and I got the set for $200. on clearance. If this...
