Hey!

JohnTodd has a new album out and there are some great songs on it! He was kind enough to allow me to play with this track "I'll Be There" So below is the journey.

Kudo's John!

Hello everyone!
My name is Martin, first post here after reading lots of great information on here.
Many threads on here mention about "Proper Gain Staging" and I'm sorry but I don't know what that is?
Could someone please explain in detail how exactly you properly gain stage using Cubase 6?

Thank you everyone, hope you're all enjoying the new year!

This has to be a simple solution but I'm stumped.

My bounced 2 track sounds great at 16/ 44.1 but on the CD some transients are distorting. I've never had this problem before. How can it sound great ITB?
I'm even lowering my level to -6 and still some subtle clipping is occurring on the CD.

ITB - A term used to refer to music or audio production that takes place entirely - or as entirely as possible - within a computer-based DAW. "In the box" generally refers to mixing the audio in the DAW, using plugins for processing rather than going outside the computer ( OTB ) to external analog or digital hardware processors.

I've been told that ITB converters may be a better choice for high end audio now. It does make sense. What are some of the better PCI converters?

I have some older vintage analog tape gear along with new computer recording gear...and I need some advice on how best to wrangle and incorporate all of the various pieces I want to use so I can record and :roll: playback some analog tracks and then run those into my DAW, then maybe mix other analog sources back again..some digital stuff and some analog stuff and be able to move between the two

I have been everywhere without a clear cut explanation.
Maybe you guys can help...

M/S Compression/Mastering/In The Box

I am looking for a definite routing scheme to use in a mastering situation.

I have one stereo track with the song loaded onto the track.
This track is output to the Master.

Hello everyone,

Sorry if this gets long winded. please bare with me.

I'm recording on Pro-Tools LE and I'm pretty happy with the results I get despite my sub par monitors.

The only thing I haven't been able to do is get a really nice wide stereo image. At this point I'm limited to mixing ITB with plugin 's only.

Any tips I should try?

hello,

i have a decent InTheBox studio based around digital performer and a handful of, what i feel, are quality plug ings (UAD-1, Sony oxford, URS)... however, i've been talking to friends of mine about the difference in ITB bouncing down a final mix... vs. outputting the mix into a piece of analog and back into a digital recorder.
