Awesome! Sounds like it will do the trick! Ill deffinately give that a shot! Thanks for the input Manslick! For the future, I presume i will need to upgrade to some sort of mixing desk to use both monitors and headphone at the same time?

Cheers Greg :) Yeah for sure. I'm still not happy with the toms really, I think out of all the drum parts they sound the most robotic. so I may find some new samples for that.

Yeah I thought about that for a solution. Does quality of audio get reduced due to the splitter? I suppose for tracking itself the quality doesn't really have to be perfect does it. As long as I pick up on mistakes and clips etc.

Hey guys its been a while but here is an update with Bass guitar and a different tone for the guitars! :) Let me know what you think!

Thanks for the reply! Yea my monitors are plugged in via the Red and White "Line Out" and yea the phones do cut the sound from the monitors off, theres is only one volume which operates both. It is labelled "Phones/Line out" Yeah I have read a few people using them. How exactly would that...

Hi guys. Me and my band are going to be tracking vocals on some demo tracks soon and the problem I have is, will I be able to use the Tascam interface to send a headphone mix to my vocalist in a booth as well as monitor it all through the control speakers at the same time? Because I cant...

Ah I see, okay. Ill try to make the track how I want it with nothing on the master buss! Thanks!

Thanks guys! glad you enjoyed it! I will work on the guitars some more and repost the demo when iv done all the changes and the bass!

yeah i used a free limiter plugin called Classic Limiter on the "master setting" just to bump the volume, so it being a free limiter probably means its quality is pretty poor and making it sound odd?

Im having the same issue. Its very irritating! Did anyone ever find a solution? or is it a case of buying a new interface?

Yeah I agree, after taking a break a listening back the guitars definitely lack that nice thick tone somewhat. I think its down to the EQ. I may open the gate up a bit as well as it might be taking some of the tone away? and thanks about the playing, there is still a lot a want to go back re-do...

Okay theres alot to take into account then. i like the idea of having the Comp and EQ there just as reference and see what is happening with the mix once compressed. If you want I could link you to my other post in the MP3 section of the forum so you can have a listen to a demo I did recently...

The phasing is definitely something I will have a look into then! Yeah totally get what you mean about the robitcness of the whole thing. I had a very hard time with the cymbals in particular That sort of sound pretty standard in that genre but I think as you said I can try to do more to...

Ah thats good so what I did wasn't technically wrong. Sounds like I just need to really experiment and try and get a good ear for using the Comp and Eqs on Mix Buss before really using it properly. In the mean time ill keep the Mix Buss free of plugins etc and try to make the mix as perfect as i...

No both guitars were recorded individually and the only bits copied and pasted are the sections. (choruses, verses etc) I never do one take on one track and copy it to the other if that's what you mean. But yes they are panned, and the bass would sit in the middle once record it, so that may...

Ahh i see. okay Ill definitely give that a go! Ill concentrate on the individual tracks and EQs to get the brightness I want out the mix. Ill also try the Tape comp and experiment with that a bit! Thanks ill definitely check the blog out if I need anymore help!

Thank you very much! And thank you for the feedback it's much appreciated. Yea that track isnt mastered properly at all, all I did was put some eq a multiband compressor and and limiter. But I not really competent with mastering so it does definately lack a punch! And the sub drops in that song...

Okay thank you for clarifying that for me! I didnt want to do something that could potentially make the mix worse.Yeah I completely agree there is something to be looked at there. I mean to me, personally the track does sound a bit dull. That may be just me. I could always upload a section of...

Hey guys, Iv been doing a lot of recording lately and I am familiar with basic mixing and recording. But my question is do you ever put FX, EQ, plug ins, compression or anything like that onto the Stereo Out Channel when mixing? Because I want to record a track and get it sent off for...

Hey guys! I have been spending the last few months dabbling in some home recording. I just wanted to get any advice/ tips on improvements ect. the drum samples are Chango samples and I know there are many people out there who do not really like that sort of sound so if you don't then apologies...
