The discount for Homerecording is $49 as a one-time-purchase. The subscription is still regular price: $49, and then $9 every month. The subscription gets you discounts on new plug-ins, and includes a free upgrade when we release version 3. Thanks, Tim

We posted our latest episode of Mix Tips at the beginning of the week. Here, we demonstrate some of the many uses of reverb in a mix: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fs0m-wFXdZ8 -Tim

Thanks for posting this tip for everyone! :thumbs up: You can also consolidate and export all of the tracks from your DAW starting at 00:00:00 to ensure automatic alignment. We recently demonstrated how to do this in Pro Tools: Pro Tips - Exporting Audio From Pro Tools - YouTube -Tim

Just wanted to share these tutorial videos we have produced. They demonstrate various mixing techniques, and how to get them done in Mixbus. There's also useful information on common topics such as EQ and compression, so you'll be likely to learn something no matter what DAW you use. We release...

We released an episode of Mix Tips a few months back on the many types of clipping. Clipping can be a little confusing to newbies because the same word is used for overloading the signal at multiple stages. I've been in this industry for a little while, and even I learned something while...

Not a problem! Glad to be a part of the community; and thanks for the feedback on Mixbus! It's good to hear that those videos are a big help. The Region Editing video will help you learn a lot of the editing features: Pro Tips - Region Editing and Crossfades in Mixbus - YouTube -Tim

Thanks Paul! We don't have an ETA on version 3 at this time. There are still a lot more things that need to be done on the Ardour side before we can make a move in that direction. We are currently working on version 2.3, which will be a free update for all Mixbus v2 users. I'll pop in the...

Thanks! :cool: Your PPC should handle it well. We have a lot of users running Mixbus on older machines. I run Mixbus on my netbook for demos, and it has a 1GHz AMD dual core processor with 2GB of RAM.

We have a YouTube Channel with tons of feature and tutorial videos :) I made a playlist with all of the videos we've made: Harrison Mixbus Videos Let me know if you guys have any more Qs! Tim Hall Harrison Consoles

Mixbus runs well on all levels of hardware. I run it on my netbook for demos, and on my 2008 dual-core iMac for our YouTube video demos. It's also ultra-compatible with the major operating systems (Windows, Mac, Linux). Tim Hall Harrison Consoles

I've had a lot of luck with ORTF with a matched pair of pencil condensers. :guitar:

You have to mix with loudness in mind to keep your music from getting destroyed as you add gain. At the old mastering studio I worked at, good mixes needed very subtle processing before the limiter. I recommend using the limiter as the last processor in your chain. The EQ, multi-band, and...

Definitely true. FWIW, I almost always record with two mics, but often find myself choosing one over the other when mixing. It's almost always the 57 :)

I imagine the amp sounds good when standing a bit away from it. How close do you have the mic to the speaker? A condenser could work better for this amp...placing it back a little could help too. Adding a little bit of compression could beef it up some.

A single mic for each person would be best, and would probably ensure the best sound quality. A boundary mic may pick up too much background noise.

It also depends on what you want to do with the recording. If you want to add artificial reverb, you want to record as dry as possible (bedroom, closet, etc.). If you like the natural reverb of the living room, it may work fine and need no plug-ins.

Are you running a ton of plug-ins / effects while recording? That can cause errors in playback with a low buffer size + delay compensation. Some plug-ins can get rather CPU intensive...

Not sure if you tried this, but sometimes this noise is related to the battery charger. Try recording audio with the laptop unplugged (if you haven't already :))
