    Cubase 6/7/8 VS Cakewalk Sonar X3 Audio Engine problems?

    How the track(s) or audio was exported could cause differences in sound quality. IE., FLAC, mp3 settings, wav files exported to lower resolutions etc.. But you've probably already checked your export settings I assume. "When mixing you don't end up battling to get the mix you want." Maybe...

    How many of you use pitch correction for your own vocals?

    Any of it. Don't think you can hear complex time signatures and you probably wouldn't know an intricate melody if you heard it. I won't hold that against you tho.:facepalm:

    How many of you use pitch correction for your own vocals?

    I would think after 50+ years of recording you would have more than synth-only tracks to post. ;) I do. But you won't hear them. BTW, They're not all synth tracks. You're just not listening. I don't care. :listeningmusic:

    How many of you use pitch correction for your own vocals?

    Na, I don't record vocals anymore. I don't need to. I only do instrumental tracks many of you guys can't get your heads around. I started recording vocal tracks years before you guys were even born. Besides, what's so profound about recording vocals tracks over instrumental tracks? To say my...

    How many of you use pitch correction for your own vocals?

    My point exactly! If you can notice it, It's over used! That said, you can still be artistically creative with it and actually notice it's being used. That all depends on your 'artistic' prerogatives. I don't believe it was originally engineered for other than subtle pitch correction that can't...

    How many of you use pitch correction for your own vocals?

    Flagrant contravention of my directive just means you might be ignorant to common sense suggestions and choose to deny any type of directive based upon your rude and pompous character. "professional productions are chock full of it" LMFAO!!

    Headphones vs monitors?

    Won't allow the deletion of a duplicate post. Why? The editing system has this bug. Or so it seems. It needs to allow for the deletion of a post by the person making the post. Have I overlooked an icon or tab enabling me to do that? Thanks.

    Headphones vs monitors?

    All monitors and headphones cast their own coloration. Every single one of them. Speaker design and headphone technology have come a long way in a few short years given the DAW phenomenon. I think that you still get what you pay for in these technologies weather you're monitoring through...

    How many of you use pitch correction for your own vocals?

    Hey, It's OK if you want your vocals to sound weak and phony. Just saying. But I stand corrected jonny. It 'IS' to be used as a substitute for acceptable vocal performances when you want your vocals to sound cheap, weak and phony. :facepalm:

    How many of you use pitch correction for your own vocals?

    With pitch correction, less is more. If you find you need more, do another take. That said, I know artists who love it and use it as an effect or instrument. There's nothing wrong with it when used tastefully either way. But, it's not to be used as a substitute for poor, pitch control human...

    New studio

    What is 'up to date with music'? If you're planing to do all your productions on a DAW, just be sure your mac or pc is 64 bit and only use 64 bit processing and software with firewire or 2.0 or higher usb. Technology changes in a nano second. When purchasing anything audio/music related to...

    mastering beginner, going into red ok?

    I admit that it took me a long time to relearn how to mix levels digitally. I'm still struggling with the concept today as an old analog guy. But when they tell you to keep the meter below or at -3db on your final mix, there's good reason. I had to relearn how to place my levels during tracking...

    Bass volume changes when walking around the room what to do?

    Conflicting bass frequencies. I suggest not tracking or mixing with your sub bass. You're using a couple of the best studio monitors there are in the home studio and sub-pro markets. You can balance your room with those and only use your subs for final playback. I have owned just about every...

    Headphones vs monitors?

    Yeah, I appreciate that BroKen. I don't want to mislead anyone hear about monitoring their productions. Listening on many systems at different times, in different rooms etc..etc... might be the ideal way to judge and do corrections. However, what I would like to stress is, that your main...

    Headphones vs monitors?

    No matter how good your mix is, your program material will sound different on every system you play it back on. This could drive you crazy. Don't be obsessed about this. The big myth is, that you need multiple listening environments to judge the quality of the mix/master you've produced. That...

    That's OK Mate. I know tenured audio engineers and producers who can't mix bands either.:facepalm:

    Vinyl sales

    Can you hear the difference between mp3 formats and a wav or flac file format? That's OK mate. Many people can not. I think the word 'dynamic' is self-descriptive in this context.

    Vinyl sales

    Grew up on vinyl. Did analog recordings and was keen to "real" dynamics via analog, tubes, vinyl etc. Long live vinyl and analog. It's like, the Ford Motor Company continuing to manufacture 1957 T-Birds. Year after year, after year..... MP3's are just a fly in the ointment. (Especially for...
