So i just bought an aural exciter off the net, my question is where does it go in the mix, do i run my final product \threw it.. or do i route it threw the individual peices when imrecording?
Which should be basically "never" if you're doing everything else right.Farview said:You use it on what ever needs it.

Sound about right?
When used properly, they are just another tool in the arsenal.... I "diss" them only when used by novices as an excuse for poor recording technique....acorec said:Jeez, I hope not. Take a look around the web. It is surprising how many pro studios (like Abbey Road) use them. HR.com seems to be above all these "pros" I guess. So, it is nice that people who are rank amatures think they know best based on a few that diss the devices. I don't care either way myself.

Just calm down. If you plan on hanging around here at all, you're gonna have to get used to this kind of thing. Everyone has made quite valid points so far.fiveironfriend said:What a friendly bunch of assmasters some of you are, I appreciate those of you who decided to treat a newbie to recording like me with some respect, and to those of you who forget that they didnt always know everything about recording, lick my balls. Everything you use in yoru studio is a tool to make it sound better, preamps, condensers .. why not get the best possiblegear that you can. To me a recordrd peice of music is about putting something together thats amazing to the ear, im gonna do whatever i can to get that done, even if it means buying a 100$ peice of equipment.
