I was trying to record some stuff, my recording chain was the following: Yamaha Synth > Korg Electribe Audio In > Tascam Us144mk2 Audio Interface > Cubase Since I wasnt intending to record a deffinitive take, I just wanted to see how some instrument parts worked together I didnt sync the midi...

4. How To Disappear Completely - YouTube Im gessing a ribbon mic positioned at about 2 feet away from guitar, pointing between soundhole and end of fretboard. But that's just the image that comes to my mind when I hear it

Has anyone tried it? It is not that expensive and may be interesting. The problem I've found with some EH equipment (stompboxes) is their products are great ideas but the result ends up being not that great (theres volume loss, noise, no LED, etc) Hope this is not the case. One thing I reckon...

Ok so Ive been recording myself for a couple of months and I have done mainly acoustic guitar, voice, electric guitar and some synths. Everything fine so far, but I wanted to try a full mix with electric bass and drums, so I recorded some simple stuff but I have been struggling to get a nice...

After nearly two months of patiantly (impatiantly at some points) waiting for my EV 635A I purchased online to arrived, today the mailman ringed my bell with some good news. First, how can it take so long? I had ordered some stuff on ebay before and it had been shipped via USPS, took about 3 or...

Ok im not a trained drummer, I just have a kit home for band rehearsals. My last band is on a type of hiatus since one of the guitar players and the drummer are out of the country for a year. I do know how to play drums, but im far from being great. Ive been trying to record a beat but I just...

Ive been getting some equipment and experimenting for a while, and now I am looking for a pair of SDC to record drums and acoustic guitar as well. Im on a budget, while rode nt5, shure sm81 and oktava mk012 look really nice they are out of my range at the moment. I was looking at NAIANTs X-O...

Recording drums with Earl Harvin | Flickr : partage de photos ! I recorded some drums last day and there was too much room sound, it was aweful. I have been thinking about treating my room but I dont want too much panels and I want them to be easy to move. Im on a budget, so keep that in mind...

Today I was recording some stuff home. I had my akg c4000b hooked up with my Tascam us144mk2 into cubase. When I moved the mic to a diff position the interface's line in LED started to blink in red (clip). Next time I moved the mic I decided to turn phantom power off befor moving it. I did that...

wanted to know people's opinion on this mic. It looks nice and can be picked up very cheap at ebay. Im looking for a 2nd LDC, right now I on an AKG C4000B. Do you think the Oktava would stand up to my akg?

This is kind of two posts in one (?) First, Ive never had a ribbon mic and Im curious about them. I would like to know what ribbon mics do you guys use and what do you use them for. Theyre known for being quite dark and colouring the sound, so I guess you should use them wisely for specific...

I know some guys here have a couple of these omni dynamic mics. I want one or two ev 635a's, so I was wondering if someone needed to get rid of them. They are really cheap used, so I hope someone picked up one or two too many ;) Shipping would be to Mexico

They are way cheaper than the popular mk 12 One down I see on them is the cable is attached to the mike, you cant disconnect it. But I guess thats just a stupid detail, it all comes down to the sound and realiability

After a couple of weeks experimenting with different mics, mic positions, and amp settings I finally got closer to the guitar tone I was looking for. The result was better than my previous tries, but still I feel like its missing something. I havent quite developed an ear for this, I guess it...

I mean, most hip hop artists arent really going to get into serious recording Most of the times they will use a beat (either one from someone else, one they sampled or one they composed and played on a vst) and record vocals on top of it, THATS IT. Its not like they will record a drum kit with...

Im really a begginer at this. Today I was experimenting close miking a guitar cab with a condenser mic and I wasnt very pleased with the results. The mic was picking room sound (which I like, I hate dead sounding recordeings) but it was really aweful. The recording lacked deffinition and the...

When do you guys do this? What mics do u use? What are your results? (what type of sound) Any advices or techniques? Sorry for all the questions. I'm just curious about this. I want to know what sound are you going for when you use a condenser instead of the more common dynamic and how do...

I'm thinking in getting one of these mics (or maybe both if i save), so I wondered if anyone could tell me about their experience with these. I own an akg c4000 and sm57. I want to be able to get different sounds and have option when a mic is not giving me the sound I'm looking for. I mainly...

Im really a begginer at this. I was talking to some guys at the newbies forum about monitors and they told me no matter how good my monitors are they will sound crappy in a crappy room. My "control room" is a 6x11 feet room with A LOT of books at the back. Both side walls (on the short sides)...

I just bought a tascam us144 and a piar of mikes: akg c4000 and shure sm57. I came home and recorded my guitar amp with both of them, sm close miking the amp and akg as a room mike. I didnt pay a lot of attention to the placing of the mikes since i was anxious to try my interface. The result was...
