Hey all, It's been a while and forever since I posted here, but I need some advice and don't know how to go about this. I recently upgraded my practice/recording room from all kinds of different instrument amps to a PA system. I bought a Yamaha MG166cx and a Crown Xti 4000 going to some Yamaha...

OK, so maybe I'm not alone in this, but I feel like this must be the stupidist singer I've ever worked with. And the weird part is I actually like her a lot. So, I have this singer, and she's a great singer...when she is not in front of a recording mic. Performing without a mic she has this...

Alright, so, after comparing a lot of mixes and (crap) mastering jobs I've been working on to some pro CDs that I appreciate, I've got this idea that's been pestering in my mind. Nothing ground breaking, but maybe someone with mastering experience will come and shoot my stupid thoughts down...

Alright, I'm making progress here! Few more questions about bit depth. Damn this question gets overkilled. But mine is more specific. So I have a 24 bit A/D convertor in my set up. In my DAW I have been recording in 32 bit. Now I'm wondering if I'm just wasting disk space. First of all...

OK guys, So I met this mixing engineer who wants to mix a rock song that I've been working on (working on recording that is), and he's gonna do it for free (yay!). But now I am wondering how to send the track to him? Kind of funny, I've done this for years on my own, but sending it to someone...

After some research on how some people do edits or punch ins, virtually everyone I've seen doing this, does it as x-fades. Well, maybe I'm dumb, because I never knew about crossfades before (i'm new mind you) and I have always just been going in to the file at the most detailed sample level...

disregard, i posted this somewhere more appropriate

So I've been using the search function and trying to learn up as much as possible, and I've stumbled across multiple posts by walters about stereo bussing and whatever other nonsense that guy is always talking about. But actually I've been wondering for a while what bussing really is, sorry, I...

OK, so I'm probably a little dumb, but I'm having a problem recording in stereo using the ORTF technique. I have a stereo bar that I have been using for a while to do xy, but I'm trying to record ORTF and I can't get the mics to fit with the XLR cables attached. The XLR cables are too fat and...
