    techniques to simplify multiple tracks

    Hey thanks for the input guys. You are all very correct that organization is important - keeping track of which tracks I already used. I have created basically a matrix with takes on the vertical axis and lyrics on the horizontal; should be sufficient. Timboz - looks like some great...

    techniques to simplify multiple tracks

    Just found a function in AACS2 "Bounce Bus to Wave" :) That pretty much solves this issue. Anyone actually use Audition CS2? I'm digging it. Much better than Cool Edit :p

    How's this you think? (Micing Guitar Cab)

    The recording sounded nice. The pan seperation of mics was nice. I would tweak that amp though, sounds like the guitar tone needs a little more "attitude". What kind of axe/pickups?

    techniques to simplify multiple tracks

    a thanks, Ford. I was just trying to get a feel of what more experienced mixers tend to do... the processing and latency is a good point tho!

    techniques to simplify multiple tracks

    Hey all, Quick question for you guys who have had some more mixing experience: We just got done tracking five songs, and for each song we did roughly 10 good vocal takes for each part of the song. So I am staring at my multi-track (AACS2) and thinking "how the hell am I going to mix all this?"...

    Carving Out EQ Niches

    nice "God dammit Private Gump, that's the best god damn answer I ever Got. Hell I'd recommend you for OCS if it wasn't such a god damn waste of enlisted men."

    Carving Out EQ Niches

    Well I hope it's damn good. It is so stupid for all of us to come into these threads to MAYBE learn something about EQ from the wise ones, then see this crap. I'm not taking sides but it seems that Glen usually offers advice (good or bad, it's a post and something to try), and then Ford jumps...

    Carving Out EQ Niches

    As I see it (granted in my three weeks on the board I have only seen several of these back-and-forths...), Neither of you have answered any of Glen's legitimate questions. I can click on Glen's banner and see the amount of quality work he has done putting together a simple, informative...

    When Recording Audition Freezes in XP

    hm That's quite the frustrating situation. How much RAM do you have? I would imagine a clean re-format and re-install would fix things. There could be spyware involved that locks all resources randomly. What does the Windows Performance Monitor look like during this first minute of...

    Tex- That's an interesing idea. I have entered full time mixing mode, so I will be sure and try that out. Harvey- There are drums, bass, electric in most places other than intro's. I will probably use just 1 mic for those parts of the mix as suggested above. eZ - i might try that for one of...

    Massive, That's exactly what I began doing in the rough mix. I also did some spaced pair configurations and now I have a great variety of sounds. Thanks for the input. I will post when the mixes are up and I'd love for you guys to check them out.

    acoustic guitar stereo image

    Glen, Thanks for the input. As far as planning out the balance, I have always done this after tracking. We record everything including vocals, and then I figure out where to place each instrument (pan, eq, depth). Do you plan out all three of these before beginning to record a track? I...

    Tuning 1/2 step down and A=432 Hz?

    Interesting video. I think the key is to keep it simple, especially given our genre ;)

    acoustic guitar stereo image

    good ideas Hi guys, Thanks for the replies. I forgot the fact that their are no rules in this game... Seperating them as Danny/SS mentioned sounds natural and seperated. A very neat subtle delay effect was achieved by cross-mixing them (Guitar 1 and 2 X on one side, Guitar 1 and 2 Y on...

    acoustic guitar stereo image

    Hi Guys! Here's something I was wondering: We just got done laying down 2 acoustic guitar tracks which are just exact copies played on two different guitars. Each guitar was recorded with XY miking. So usually I would place the X mike on the left, Y mike on right side. Now I have 2...

    Monitors?

    Don't skimp on the monitors... AND Don't mix with canz. lol. I picked up some Dynaudio's for $1k and they were worth it. The KRK's are great for the money!

    Been Awhile

    I am assuming this is a drum machine? If you had a real awesome drummer to go along with your riffs this would be totally pro.
