I have discarded my cheap entry-level Fostex 4 track so I could utilize the 48 tracks available in my Cubasis BUT I loved the way the analog 4 track sounded (hiss aside), it was very warm and full--- compared to the recordings I'm getting on my computer which are metallic, thin, and hollow.
The setup I have now is with a Behringer mixer into a Delta Audiophile soundcard with cubasis, I record mostly acoustic guitar and vocals. The thing is, it sounds really hollow and metallic, and I don't know if that's the "digital" part of it, or the "I don't know what the hell I'm doing yet" part of it...
I've heard things about compressors to try to get back that analog fullness, or maybe it's just some settings I'm not doing right... anyone else know what I'm talking about?
I'm about ready to say forget the digital and get another analog 4 track, but with the investment I've made to upgrade my computer and the creative potential of so many tracks, I don't want to just give up so easy... any advice for me?
Thanks
