Hi I am fascinated by the sound of Fugazi's guitars - on many of their albums they sound very dry, but lively and upfront sound. Tho the sound of the guitars is overdriven, the recording is clean and not ostensibly lo-fi - at the same time it's very warm. Does anyone have any tips about how to...

Hey, Just wondering how to acheive this vocal sound? What combination of mics and processing would get the saturated, slightly eerie sound? Ty Segall: "Fist Heart Mighty Dawn Dart" (T. Rex Cover) by alteredzones on SoundCloud - Create, record and share your sounds for free

Hey everyone, I'm trying to record a guitar part with a big thick fuzz sound. In the room through my amp I can't pick out individual frequencies etc... that really make it sound interesting and defined. However, when I record it tends to sound to muddy and just to unclear. I'm using a Blue...

Hi, I want to really thicken up my recorded vocal sound, and I'm looking for real warmth of tone. The vocals already sound good, and warm, but I'm really looking to make them thicker, maybe dreamier (!?). I want to use chorus and reverb effects in conjunction - whilst obviously you'll be able...

Hi, Has anyone had any experience using the Blue Baby Bottle for recording? Specifically for recording amped guitars, acoustic instruments and percussive instruments? They market it as an all rounder, but would like real confirmation! It used to be £599 and is now £349, so am keen to see if...

Hi, I record a lot of my own samples for slicing and cutting up in Reaktor / Max / Ableton. I record mainly guitars through amps (with / without effects), percussive noises (including hits from around my house) and other acoustic instruments (ukuleles etc...). At the moment I'm borrowing mics...

I use Logic to record drums from my Elektron Machinedrum. I really want to get a fat kick / bass drum sound. One that's really really big. I understand I need to be using EQ and compression - I was just wondering what tips people have for the settings for these? Or any other advice?

I really want to get a fat kick / bass drum sound. One that's really really big. I use a Machinedrum by Elektron - it's so flexible, if you haven't got one check it out. I record it into Logic. I understand I need to be using EQ and compression - I was just wondering what tips people have for...

I am really wanting to get into recording my own samples. I was just wondering what people recommend as a mic for this? For example, if I'm recording demos outdoors etc..? or of people playing instruments at their house? I have a macbook pro and am looking at getting a small audio interface...
