I do a few live gigs per year with a bluegrass combo. I have a Yamaha MG 16/4 non-powered mixer...I plug all the mics into this mixer, panning everything dead center, and use the insert outs to go into my Akai DPS16 recorder. So far, so good. I also have a Yamaha EMX66M Powered Mixer. I take...

In the latest issue of Acoustic Guitar magazine, a feature on the artist Maria McKee (former lead singer of Lone Justice) notes that her engineer/husband used a Studio Projects C1 and T3 on her latest release ("Peddlin' Dreams"). I sent him an email asking about the mics, and he politely...

My five piece band (pop/rock) has two new Peavey PR-15 speakers (8 ohms, 400 watts Program/800 watts Peak). One of the band members just purchased a Yamaha EMX66M powered mixer...the Yamaha is advertised as having two, 300-watt amps. The specs say: "300W + 300W into 4 ohms; 205W + 205W into 8...

Hello folks... I really need clarification on something, so I hope you all can help. Besides doing home recording, I play 3-4 gigs a year with a pop/rock band, and with a bluegrass band. For the past two years, I've been using a Mackie 1202 VLZ Pro mixer for home recording (using the four...

Hello all... Would appreciate feedback on my band's latest effort...."Silent Song" (first song listed on the link). The song has a few seconds of fade-in....just in case you think your speakers aren't on! Thanks...Bob. http://www.musicv2.com/artist/theshermans

Hi everyone... Just posted three new songs and a re-mix of an old one ("Julie"). Please have a listen if you get the chance....thanks! P.S. Half of the tracks were recorded on my Akai DPS16 deck, while the other half were done through a PC, using Sonar. Main vocal mic was the SP C1....SM57s...

Hi... My bandmates and I took three of our "final mix" tracks to a friend's house yesterday...he has WaveLab, and we wanted to master the songs. Everything sounded terrific WaveLab, really full of life. The one stumbling block was that the lead vocals fell back down in the mix too much when...

This is a rough mix - have posted it before, but we (my band) will be doing the final mix in a few days..would appreciate any input! http://www.musicv2.com/artist/theshermans

This question is related to the one I posted yesterday (regarding panning). My Cakewalk acquaintance is having a very difficult time getting Input Monitoring to work correctly. He has a new, fairly powerful computer (sorry, I don't know the specs), so there shouldn't be a problem. The...

Hi... A friend of mine uses Sonar 3.0 and he'd like to know how he can control the panning in the headphone mix during recording. Right now, everything is hard right and hard left. Thanks...BobOC

This is one my friends and I did this weekend...a very rough mix. Thanks to Paul, Matt, Chris and Adam! http://www.musicv2.com/artist/theshermans "Julie"

Hello, folks... It's been well over a year since I posted any tunes here...getting back in the groove and have a few songs I'd like to share. Can anyone point me in the direction of a free hosting site? I noticed that nowhereradio.com is not accepting any new artists, and I'm having trouble...

You can say that again.... "This Boy" http://www.soundclick.com/bands/1/bobocmusic.htm Recorded this afternoon...me on all vocals and instruments. No drums (damn!). Thanks to my wife for putting up with me today!

Hi... I just set up a page at Soundclick.com. Wanted to see if the streaming and/or downloading is working correctly. The song is old to me (2001) but new to you. It was recorded on a Boss BR-8. "Love In My Life" http://www.soundclick.com/bands/1/bobocmusic.htm P.S. The other song...

Hi folks... I don't post here very often, but I have a question and I hope someone can help me out. I bought a Behringer Bass Amp at MusiciansFriend.com. In classic "you get what you pay for" fashion, I was not at all thrilled with the sound of the amp. So I'd like to return it. The...

Hi folks...hope you're all feeling well tonight.... I'm posting a song by my nephew's band, Clearview. They're in their early 20s and have been playing in NYC (on Bleecker Street and in the East Village) for the past 16 months or so...not a ton of gigs but enough to keep it going. They're...

Hi all... I posted this brief (52 second) snippet on the "Recording Techniques" board...thought I'd also post it here. I recorded a Piano Quartet on Saturday night in West Redding, Connecticut. I was very pleased with the results. Used my Akai DPS16, Mackie 1202 VLZ Pro mixer, and three...

Hi all... I recorded a live performance of a classical quartet this evening (piano, violin, viola, cello), and it could not have gone better. I'm burning the final cd of the mix now, and it really sounds great. I recorded the performance on my Akai DPS16, using a C1, a B1 and an AKG C1000s...

Hi Gang... Recorded a bare-bones version of a new song...thought I would share it with the group. Any feedback is, as always, welcome. "Keep Out The Day" Thanks...BobOC http://www.nowhereradio.com/artists/album.php?aid=2533&alid=-1
