    Back To Basics

    I've been so bummed out with school lately that I just decided to throw up a mic and take a couple vocal takes along with my acoustic. I'd love feedback. It's like 3 AM and I can't hear the mix too well with the speakers as quiet as they are. It might be bass-heavy. I dunno. Lemme know...

    Surround Sound Confusion

    This may seem like a really broad question, but when it comes to mixing surround sound, how do you do it, and what kind of equipment do you need? Is it a software issue? hardware? I've just been poking around the internet and it seems like you need a surround decoder/encoder, but damned if I...

    Instruments only mix...

    Can you guys give a quick listen to this minute and a half clip I did of this band I'm recording? I'm trying to get everything balanced while still having enough power in the guitars. Please lemme know what could use some work or what already does work. It's getting to the point where I'm...

    Bass Woes

    So this band I've been recording is done with the instrumental tracks, and I'm putting those all together. Problem is that the bass guitar is kind of inconsistent. The notes are all there, but the low notes are killing the mix because when I turn down the bass far enough so the low notes sit...

    Mixing the Snare

    On the latest tune I'm mixing, I'm having trouble with the snare coming through the really distorted sections. Should I remix and do everything around the snare? Or should I maybe try and get the snare a little more even? Any suggestions? It's like, there, but it sounds kind of like it's in...

    Overhead Mic Question

    Yea, I'm bored at 4 in the AM, and I got to thinkin. Right now I have an AKG C1000 for an overhead for de drums. Soon, I'll be recording again, and I am lookin for stereo overheads. What honestly would be a better decision? Get another C1000 for overheads, or pick up 2 of the ECM8000s for...

    Dare I mention Behringer?

    Ok, here's the dilemma.... Right now the way I'm recording drums is to have toms and overheads running through the same mixer.....unfortunately, this setup allows for very little flexibility after tracking. I have to EQ both toms and overhead at the same time, usually compromising some quality...

    Finally!! It's DONE!!

    Ok, here it is y'all. This is my band's (The Geisert 8 Band) first "Single".....it's called "My favorite pillow". I did all the recording in my sax player's basement with 6 akg d770s, 1 SM57, and a AKG C1000. The only thing non "homerecording" about it is that this is off the album which we...

    Mastering

    Well, I got my band's CD mastered the other day, and it was a great experience. The engineer however told me that on one track in particular there was quite a bit of comb filtering happening. Now even after I knew about it, I was having trouble picking it out. The closest thing I heard was a...

    Tascam 414mkII

    Once again, I have my brother's fairly unused four track for sale. Someone offered a while ago, but never persued. It's been recently cleaned, and all pot, faders, and everything are in sweet working order. Smoke free environment. I've got more time in the thing than he does, and I've only...

    New Demo Work (Side Project) Please gimme some ideas

    The name of this one is complicated life (just cause I wrote another song called simplified life)....anyways, the recording is just me overdubbing a few instruments. It's just acoustic guitar, drums, and vocals (although I swear I hear a bass part in there......). The drums are not my forte...

    wiring issue

    Just 2 quick questions....I have a pair of 8 ohm monitors, and a 4 ohm power amp. Question 1: it shouldn't hurt the monitors with this amp right? regarding ohm matching I mean. Question 2: Is there any way possible to hook the monitors up parallel and not be running in mono? (I don't think...

    Headroom?

    I've got a question about headroom while monitoring. I just picked up a pair of ns10s, and for a temporary amplifier I will be using a 30 watt marantz reciever (til school where I will probably be running off a friend's QSC). I was told that running the 30 watt marantz will be bad for...
