I give music lessons online and want to upgrade the sound to include an external mic with an interface (Focusrite Scarlett 2i2). Which mic has least feedback? I don't mind dynamic one - how about the Shure 57 or 58? Should I get a shotgun mic instead? Which brand? Thank you in advance for...

I am recording cello and piano in a small-medium size room that is too bright and live acoustically - I can't really treat it except to put a blanket under the piano. What mic setup would you all recommend? I always used X-Y stereo on 2 small diaphragm cardoid mics and a large diaphram cardoid...

Just wondering if I can make a Reaper file open on mac and window operating system? Thanks in advance...

Here is a recording I just finished and would like some feedback on how to improve it. I only used reverb but are there other plugins I should use, like compressor for instance? How about exciter or is there a plugin that makes it tube like warm? Thanks in advance everyone...Stay safe now...

I have Fabfilters, and was wondering for example, do different eq plugins sound different - some better than others? If so, do I have pretty good one, or should I upgrade to something else? How are Wave plugins compared to Fabfilters? Thanks in advance...

I use Reaper but was wondering are there better sounding ones out there, or do they all sound the same? I know that different ones support different plugins so potentially they could sound different, but I mean inherently without plugins, do they all sound the same is my question.

Are bigger rooms better than small ones considering they are of equal sonic quality? Also, are live rooms better or dead ones? What other qualities should I look for in a recording space? Is recording in a good sounding music hall an ideal situation? Thank you so much for your expertise -...

When I compare my recordings to an award winning engineer's work, mine is thine and small sounding. Are the gears giving me this, or perhaps mixing technique? I am using US-1800 Tascam interface, Studio Projects microphones C1 and C4, with Epic reverb. His is apple computer based system with...

I don't know where else to post this, so here it goes. I like the sound of the Mogami cables, but they have a few models - just wondering which one I should get. Is the top of the line worth the extra price? etc... Thanks in advance !

I am recording with Tascam us-1800 with pretty decent condenser mics, and wondering just how good the Tascam is... Is it good enough for creating red book CDs? The pre seems clean enough, although not warm like tubes... What do you all experts think about this one? Thanks in advance !

I want to capture the sound of the hall by pointing a mic towards the audience (opposite the source), and wondering what kind of mic I should use to do that? A small diaphragm condenser cardiod? How about an omni on the same mic? Would large diaphragm not work? Please enlighten...

Can I use omni small diaphragm condenser mics for XY stereo far away pointing? I am trying to double mic cello - one close and one far to give spacial quality. The far ones will be small diaphragm in pair - can I use omni head for this application?

I am currently using Tascam us-1800 and just wondering how much of an upgrade will the Audient ASP880 would be in sound quality...Anyone care to shed light here? Thanks a lot in advance. I want to make industry standard quality CDs to sell, so I am looking for quality on cello and piano...

I am using Tal Reverb with Reaper DAW, and wondering if I upgrade to expensive Lexicon one, I would gain in quality significantly. While I am pretty happy with the Tal, it does change the sound if I add a lot of reverb - and I am trying to get away from that - would the Lexicon do that for me...

I am using Mogami 2549 xlr cable, and wondering if there is better? What are others using?

I am looking for 8 input mic interface. Which is better, focusrite 18i20 or tascam us1800? Which one has better sound (the mic pre)? Or are there others that will better them? Thanks in advance...

I need a pair of good small diaphragm condenser for far away main stereo application. I have studio projects c4 which is OK but looking to do better for under $1000 for pair. The C4 sounds thin on the bottom frequencies - do all small diaphragm mics lack in the bass department, or are there...

I have Studio Projects C1 and C4, and happy with them, but would the CS5 be a noticeable upgrade? How about the T3 with tube - worth the money? Thanks in advance...

I need at least 8 inputs (pre amps) to record classical music (string quartet). I am currently using focusrite scarlett 2i2 and happy with the sound, but would the Focusrite Saffire Pro 40 be an upgrade in sound quality, or are there others I should consider for under 1K. The Focusrite...
