Hey everyone, Sometimes i go out on the road to record a band, for example at their practice space for a demo. For all of these projects i need some basic acoustic treatment to separate the drummer or vocalist from a nasty room. What i had in mind was putting two 1/2"x4'x8' fiberboard sheets...

Hi everyone, I recently bought a 64 gb solid state drive, housed in a case that takes the sata to esata, then connects though an express card on my mac pro. OsX is installed on this external drive, and i boot it up for recording. This runs so fast! It really helped out on pro tools cutting out...

I can't really find a good review on it, or sound clips. Would anyone recommend it for recording guitars, and maybe hard rock/yelling vocals? (as opposed to using an sm-7b)

So which on do you guys use? One or two mikes? Normally for distorted parts i'll put on on the cone, and a 57 angled towards the cab, but for cleans i tend to use one condenser.

As a lot of people, i started out by recording my own band for pre production to give to a nice studio. (let me say this helped us be prepared for the real deal) and after getting hooked on recording, i've been increasing my skills since then. Sorry for the backstory, so i'll jump straight to...

Hi everyone, I've been doing my research and decided to build my own guitar cabs. Here are my plans: 212 cab with v-30s 212 cab with celestion blues 412 cab with a mix of v30s and t75 The first 212 i want to model it after an orange cab with a semi open back, support beams around the back of...

So i replace drums with midi notes using massey's drum replacer, or just paste under the midi region under say a snare hit using tab to transient. i replace the kick, snare, and toms on separate tracks and need them on one midi region to use on instance of superior drummer. Since i'm way too...

Hey everyone, I upgraded from snow leopard to lion a week ago, and got a message saying that pro tools will not work with lion. Yet... i just opened up a previous session with pro tools. Everything works just fine. I can't speak for pro tools 9 though, and i'm reluctant to upgrade on my...

Hi everyone, So for the past two years i've been recording out of my macbook pro 2.66 dual processor, 8 gigs of ram, a 500 gb hd @ 5400 rpm, and i replaced the optical drive with a 500 gb hd @ 7200 rpm. Running Logic or pro tools with 35 tracks (say 3-5 plug ins on each track) superior drummer...

Hey everyone, So about a week ago i made a switch from logic to pro tools for better editing and other reasons I'm running a macbook pro with 2.66 dual core processor, 8 gigs of ram, a 5400 rpm hardrive, and a 7400 rpm 500 gb optibay hardrive. With logic i was running smoothly 30 tracks with...

Hi everyone, I wasn't sure where to post this so i figured i'd start here. Anyway, i've had logic express for over a year now (including my interface) and everything was working fine. But recently, it disconnects from my presonus fp10 when adding impulses. Whether its adding different impulse...

Insomnia has gotten to me so i made a 3-D picture of a desk i wish to make for my set up The dimensions are 72"x40"x26' (the longest part of the desk will be 40", while the recess will be 30", and the top of the desk is 26"-24" because i haven't measured that out yet). The racks will be 20" on...

Hi everyone, The only store around carrying these is guitar center, and every time i am in there the tech won't set up an a/b comparison.. i know from reading everywhere online there are huge differences between these two monitors but i want some opinions from you guys :) I'm looking at the...

I'm in a dilemma here and i'll give the back story.. so i recorded a metal band, and this was their first time ever recording. The drummer couldn't play to a ghost track, and the guitars were off the drums, and double tracking was sort of a mess; none of the second recorded rhythm guitar...

Hi everyone, since i don't own a fancy recording studio (and i wish i did) i replace all recorded drums with superior drummer 2.0 (minus cymbals) using logics drum replacer. to get a natural drummer performance as he played it and not midi notes that i added, i set the threshold as low as it...

Hi everyone, I'm tying to figure out some ways to capture performances and mixing them better Now i'm plan is to of course.. have a cue mix. I have two sets of speakers: little fostek 5" drivers that i want to use for cue mixes (and also reference speakers) and 8" rokit g2's as my mains The...

Studio monitors are suppose to have a flat eq range, yet with the room coming into play this is not the case I've read somewhere that you can play a pink noise then capture it with an omnidirectional microphone, put a spectral analyzer on the recorded noise then eq from there (eq out the mic...

Hi everyone, I posted a thread yesterday on how to get that "modern" metal tone. Basically i was taking the DI'd guitar track, running it through the output one of my presonus fp10 into the back of my axe fx, then into an xlr input on my interface I couldn't get a good tone, but i believe...
