I've got a shure sm-57 and a Rode NT1-A. Marshall jcm 800 with 1960 cab. Any advice on using these mics to acheive a well balanced big sound? dynamic up at the speaker and condenser a certain distance from the cab?

are you all pussy-whipped bitches here or what? do you all really have to consult your GF/wife if you want to buy more music gear? If you work, pay your bills and want to buy some music gear with your own money then you should do it.

anyone record without a metronome? I think i might do it from now on, it seems that it takes the life out of a perfomance, i think i'll record the guitar and use sonars audiosnap(like protools beatdetective) to align the tempo to my midi drum tracks, innstead of having everything exactly in...

i guess i meant to ask about particular Delay, EQ and compression settings lol songs like: seventh wave- Devin Downsend Band away- Devin Downsend Band canada- Devin Downsend Band hyperdrive -Ziltoid The Omniscient obviously i'm not looking for specific setting, just a rough idea on how to get...

does anyone know how devin townsend gets his guitar sound with lots of delay ? it sounds really cool, the delay sounds like a synth pad underneath the guitar sound but it doesn't sound all muddy. I'm sure there is a fair amount of delay with some compression and good eq adjustment. any ideas...

polish sound :confused: ;)

are layne staley's vocal tracks doubled or something?, i really like the sound of his singing but it seems like there is a little extra to it. It sounds like mybe some harmony stuff going on or something between him and jerry cantrell or just him double tracked with the band mad season. any...

i've got krk RP8's and i really like them.

I'm looking for some material to read to learn more about recording everything from getting tones to mixing. I'm looking for stuff that isn't watered down advice like just giving out compression ratios for certain instruments, i want to read about eqing sounds so they all have their own sonic...

what do people mean by re-amping a guitar part? i guess something like recording a clean version of a riff and sending it out of your sound card into an amp then recording it with a mic? or something like that?

heres a sound clip, totally dry. http://www.mediafire.com/?bc9xeyd21zg here's a mic position pic. http://a849.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/images01/72/l_d50d66f2a118c22f4d67d5772a625690.jpg what do you think of the sound?, i think it sounds a little muffled, mybe it's due to proximity effect but...

yeah man, it sounds real good when double tracked, i'm trying to really nail my mic technique and getting good tones, if i can get it sounding good with one guitar, it should sound FAT whith double tracked guitar.

danny- that's funny cos i was just playing a random chord progression, i was never intending to play house of the rising sun but i guess it came out sounding something like it. punkin- it is in my first post what i used to record with, jcm800 2205, ltd viper 50

I can't seem to get much of a good sound when micing up my guitar cab. it goes something like this: ltd viper-50>>> jcm800 2205 head>>> marshall 1960 cab>>> sm57 >>> emu 1820( preamp input) >>> sonar6 This is a dry track, no effects at all exept for a gate. it has a few different recording of...

cool, awsome fantastico

i can get a fairly decent sound but it's not great, it doesn't seem to be right there in your face type clarity, it sounds a little muffled, or like it doesn't sound as good as i hear it in the room.

How should i EQ distorted guitars parts? usually when i record guitar it will sound really muddy in the low end and i have to find what frequency it is and take a few dB off. if i've got two guitar tracks each one panned hard(well, 70 percent) left and right how should i eq it so that the two...

i've read about it, i know what it does but i'm not quite sure when i should use it, i find it a little hard to "hear" it. I have various compression plugins to experiment with. when is the best time to use compression? the only time i can think of is when the volume of say a clean guitar has...

I want to build my own computer but there's so many components out there that i can't choose. I need it to do a decent amount of tracks,i will be running sonar 4 , reaktor, moog modular, battery, and things like that. I will be making all sorts of electronic music and some rock stuff too so i...
