LOL! If you want to record it, compress it, normalize it and upload it, it could be the ultimate "all's-well-that-ends-well" instructional bookend to this discussion. Whaddaya say?

I used the normalization in n-track. N-track is good in a lot of areas, but maybe not this one.

Ok, so LauraC and I and a lot of MR-8 users want compression and normalizing, I think....
I'd say that probably like with other MR-8 owners, I tend to favor the low priced stuff. With that in mind, what are our hardware and software, analog and digital choices as far as signal processing for a tighter range in signal volume levels in the final mix?
(for under $100,
just kidding)
And another question, it's a little late here so I hope I read this all right, if my dynamic range is too great, meaning I have data I want to keep at a very low level, but i have peaks that are at the max level, then I'll want compression, but if I have everything a little too low, then I want normalizing, (unless there is normalizing that is non-linear and adjustable) yes?
If i want normalizing i'm talking about transferring the waves i need to change to pc for software normalizing (what software?) but if i want compression, then i have choices of analog signal chain from the preamp to analog compressor, or digital compressor, or compression after the recording of the track dgigtally thru software or back to analog using hardware, then back to digital or analog mixing.
And finally, i found i have an old alesis nanocompressor and i remember it was noisy. thow it away? i'd hate to f up the nice clean sound i'm getting on the MR-8 now....

The FMR AUDIO RNC (Really Nice Compressor) runs about $180. and is an excellent buy, plus it's very quiet. Check out their website, and also do a search on the mics or rack forums on this site.

Gee, there's nothing like a little ego to get people involved. I wonder if 99% of web traffic is flame wars.
Thanks for RNC info. I hear it's really nice.
I'll have to try my old nanocomp soon.
there's no way i'll be able to produce anthing at home, i'm not a producer. I'll be saving up for studio time and producer time for someday....

Children please quit fighting!!! Everyone who comes here is looking for helpful information not to see who wins pissing contests between "Veteran" recording engineers. I come here because I am a Musician first and looking for good advice. What I've learned is there are many ways to do things but it is always up to the persons ears what sound best. You both seem to posess a wealth of knowledge but the ego fest is best laid to rest.

The debate has long since past.... why the continued comments on laying it to rest when it's quite obvious it already has been??
