    Hi hat too loud in overheads

    My band has had the very same problem in all of our recordings, bar the one we are doing ourselves at the moments.

    My first live recordings - a journey

    My first live recordings - a journey

    Hi all I've been reading a lot of the threads on here and as you seem to be a helpful and enthusiastic bunch I thought I introduce myself and explain what I'm trying to do with my band. My band plays metal, we've shelled out too much cash in the past on pro recordings which we've always been...
