    Snare Shootout - My Three Snares (audio)

    Hey everyone. I spend so much time on here and on youtube deciding what drum pieces to buy I decided to contribute and do a shootout of my own for fun. I am a guitar player who has really grown to love the drums equally, so I am slowly building up my equipment. I have most of the info in the...

    "The Wedding Song" - mixing, mastering for review

    I produced this song as part of a project my senior year. I also performed the guitars, vox, and keys. I would like some feedback on the song in general, specifics about the mix, and also the mastering. I feel that the mastering is the weakest...the listening environment was not ideal, and I...

    Drum Isolation on Stage (pics)

    Hey everyone, I posted a little while ago and threw out some ideas of building a booth around the drums at our church...and after reading the replies decided that the only thing I would do would be to place some absorption behind the drums so everything wasn't bouncing off the back wall so...

    Live Drum Booth Question

    Sorry, I know this isn't a studio question, but I figured you guys would be the best to ask this question. I just started working for a church as a music guy. We have a pretty small room, and I would love to quiet the drums down some. I don't think the drummers could play much quieter without...

    Lets talk about the crazy Earthworks mics...

    I'm talking about the SDC's that go to 40K......both times I have been involved with a project (one jazz, one pop rock, different studios, signal chains, etc.) where they were used as the drum overheads, I have thought that they sounded really awkward in the mix....good by themselves but didn't...

    Can I Do This?

    Sorry if this has already been asked, but I didn't exactly know how to search for it. At an acoustic show I'm doing I would like to hook an sm58 into my Marshall solid state head and put some distortion and crazy reverb on it (and then I'll have another normal vocal mic, and only use that mic...

    How am I doing?

    Hey, I am working on a project for church and just did the first drum track. I would really really really appreciate it if you would give me some feedback. I am pretty happy with everything I think, I do feel like the kick sound is a little weak though. If you have any suggestions or criticism I...

    Weird Clipping...

    Hopefully this isn't your typical clipping question. I recorded drum tracks in Cubase SE today, everything turned out great except the bottom snare mic (MXL 603) and one Kick Mic (Shure Beta 52A). There is a bad clipping noise on both HOWEVER, the signal is not clipping in the mixer window, nor...

    So I'm doing a CD project for my church and this is my first attempt at making a really good scratch track to record everything over. What do you think? http://people.clemson.edu/~stoeber/lordmosthighclick.mp3

    ADK Hamburg problems

    Got my ADK Hamburg out for the second time today and it's broken, tons of wind-like background noise. Of course they were nice and I'm returning it to get it fixed, but its such a pain to do this....there really isn't a point to this thread I'm just angry.

    Should I Rent?

    I am producing a CD for our church this summer, some original stuff, some stuff songs we do that we'll get licenses for. We have mics available like, Shure SM81's, sm57's, sm58's, MXL 603's, MXL 990's, SP C1's, MXL V67g, ADK Hamburg, and I think that's pretty much it (minus a few drum mics)...

    How do live app SDC Shures compare with stuff like MXL 603's

    So if I'm going to record some drums, and I have some Shure SM 81's, what would that sound like compared to getting a matched pair of MXL 603's? On the Shure web page it has their SDC's under the recording section, but I think I've only seen them used in live applications. But, since things like...

    Did I get an old version?

    Does anyone know when SE3 (or i guess SX3 or SL3 too) came out? I use SE that I bought right after christmas at GC, and I was looking at the Steinberg site and saw SE3 was out. I guess it isn't really a big deal, but I figure I could go ask for the newer version if it was out when I bought SE...

    do you think that this idea result in a drum track?

    So...I'm starting a new project, and in this project I would like to create a drum track for each song that fits the groove of the individual song. I would like to use these instead of a metronome, and possibly keep them at the end to fill in the real drum tracks. I know that alot of producers...

    oak vs. hickory

    I really like promark oak sticks...I like that they are a little heavier, but I am under the impression that this may be an odd thing. Do drummers generally like lighter sticks or is it just a preference thing (i guess you're answer could be yes and yes, but you understand what i'm asking). I'm...

    ADK Hamburg

    I am looking for another cheaper vocal mic and I found a new ADK Hamburg on sale for 179$ (new). I've seen this mic recommended on this forum before, do you think that this is a good price and a good choice? My other choice would be an MXL V63. Thanks for the advice...

    latency according to connection type...

    I'm wondering what the order is for the least latency according to how a soundcard is connected to the computer. Let's suppose I'm using the same spec computer for a PCI, Firewire, and USB 2.0, would the order from most latency to least be... USB 2.0 > Firewire > PCI ? all I have is a...
