Hey guys...
As some of you know, I have 2 Vintage AKG C-414's with the original Telefunken CK12 Brass Capsules.
These were the capsules that were used in the Telefunken ELAM and the AKG C12 mics. The C-414's also used this capsule until around 1980 or so, at which point they changed to a mylar diaphragm.

Hi,

I would like to try the Outboard Gear Processing for my recorded audio like Vocal and Bass Guitar.

I normally have my clean recording on both, then processed and toning via plugins. And I would like to use some outboard gears like Compressor, EQ, Bass Amp Head...for that.

Question :

What's the basic setup/chain should I do for a single track?

Hi guys, brand new thread, it feels clean ! Here's a recording I did literally just now. I have a gate at -48dB, preopen-5ms atk-10ms hold-10ms release-100ms. I did those settings because the Gate would chomp away at my words ! For the EQ, I didn't mess around with trying to enhance my voice ! Instead, I just cleaned up the audio by getting rid of over 20KHz ( Beyond human hearing anyway !

Does anyone have any experience with Crest desks?
Were they known mainly for FOH work, or did they make Recording desks, too?

@Donny, do your fader meter lights go goofy if your mixer is made smaller? Mine does this ever since the last upgrade (when they changed the Chanel EQ Strip) and it drives me nuts.

Hello guys,
I'm glad to find here, was't easy looking an audio geek community. I'm newbie...

I'm thinking to buy Bluebird SL mic for solo instrument and chamber and looking a portable recorder which is perfect matched to bird.

Microphonics or microphony describes the phenomenon wherein certain components in electronic devices transform mechanical vibrations into an undesired electrical signal (noise). The term comes from analogy with a microphone, which is intentionally designed to convert vibrations to electrical signals.

I am getting a blue screen during the process of opening an existing project that I haven't been in since last year. All of my other projects open just fine. I'm wondering if it could be a plugin or something. Is there a way to disable plugins during the time you are opening the project? to maybe get around what the problem is and at least open the project with just the raw tracks?

Hi,

I am recording a string section which consists of 6 violins and 2 cellos. We will be doubling ( by re-recording a second take ) the section and are concerned about potential phasing issues.
Does anyone have any advice as to how to avoid any phasing between the doubled parts at the recording phase.
