    Super cool rap album needs mixing

    Hi, I have a high quality/energy rap album that needs mixed. It has lots of layers/panning. Looking for someone who likes to experiment with FX/texture to produce portfolio level tracks. Someone who doesn't care if a track takes multiple days to get right. Mixer needs to understand vocal...

    Need some expert help with Trackspacer

    Hi, I'm trying to use Trackspacer to carve some space in some very dynamic instrumentals. Primarily because the bass/kick is very strong and the instrumentals have quite a bit of panning. How I have things setup sounds ok, but I feel like it could be better. According to videos and such that...

    Mystery chirp sounds

    I have a full song session in Adobe Audition. For whatever reason one of my instrument layers is causing a loud chirp sound. It repeats at the exact same spots throughout the track. The instrument is a flute. When I listen to the file individually, the chip sound isn't there. There's nothing...

    Need a "for dummies" explanation on how to use a talk box.

    Over the years, I've really wanted to try out a talk box for recording cool choruses, but I've always been confused on exactly how it works. I presume it's complicated because I've barely seen anyone try it. I've watched several YouTube videos and the explanations aren't great. Is a Dunlop...

    Best rap mics under 5k?

    What are the best rap mics in the 1-5k range? Currently, I have an NT1-A that I run through a cheap tube amp. I like the brightness, but the highs are very thin/metallic/harsh. I had a AT4040 as a kid and really liked it. Thought it had a nice shine to it. I had a SM7B and hated it. My...

    VTB-1 tube amp alternatives? Or how could I fix mine?

    Mine appears to have broken. The level bar doesn't light up and the sound quality is a little off. It's almost as if it's clipping even at super low volume levels. Maybe the tube is going bad? I have a NT1-A mic. It used to sound amazing, but now IMO it sounds pretty metallic. Like the last 3-4...

    How do you progressively change the pitch lower on an instrument or vocal?

    If I have an instrument or vocal and I want it to gradually go down in octave over the period of like 30 seconds is there a way to do this without messing with the tempo or time? If so, what plugin would I need or how exactly would I do this? I'm using Adobe Audition. Thanks for your help

    Can anyone help me with volume automation options?

    Back in the day, I would record just a couple simple layers of vocals so it was easy to match everything up. Recently, I've been recording tons of layers, and sometimes vocals line by line. This is creating sessions with 100-200 tracks. This is making it very time consuming to properly match...

    Latency/Drift $50 reward for fix

    Hi, a couple weeks back, Windows automatically updated some drivers on my Win 7 machine and a ton of latency issues have sprung up. I have an M-Audio 192/4 and Audition 1.5. Before this update, I didn't have any issues. I reinstalled Windows thinking it would solve the issue. It didn't.... It...

    Error sound help

    I seem to have a ghost error sound within my session that I cannot find. When I play my vocal or instrumental busses separately I don't hear the error. They are fine. But when played together there is a pop/crack/distortion sound every time at exactly 57 seconds. I exported each bus and...

    Mastered song causing ear pain

    I recently hired someone to master my songs. I won't say who. Within minutes of listening I get massive ear pain. The waveform is nearly one solid block... Very little peaks. Does that mean the guy doesn't know what he's doing? He has lots of positive reviews, but I question why a...

    Need help fixing some tracks...

    Two years ago I recorded an album. Long story short I used a different mic than usual and it was terrible. Since the vocals sounded so lifeless and dry I added EQ. It caused sibilance issues rending my recordings incredibly difficult to listen to. Like it's painful even after applying de-essers...

    Audition Drift Issue Please Help

    In the middle of recording yesterday the "drift" option in Audio Audition 1.5 stopped working. It's taking my short recorded clips and stretching them it into something super long. I've had this problem happen before, but usually restarting the computer or unplugging my interface would fix the...

    Latency Nightmare Help

    15 years ago I had a Firewire Solo. It was awesome. Zero latency. Eventually, I upgraded computers and for whatever reason, it wasn't compatible. I got a 2nd generation Scarlett Solo. It worked for a couple of months and then no matter what I did it had terrible latency. Actually, I found one...

    I compressed some vocals wrong and need help.....

    I made a song about a year ago. It's probably my favorite song I've ever made. I mixed half the track one day and the other other half on the next day. The first day I compressed my vocals 4:1. On the second day I compressed my vocals "accidentally" 2:1. I didn't realize I had done this until...
