I'm looking at upgrading my music PC and would appreciate any advice.

Here are my needs:

I have a client coming in later this week; a singer-songwriter who plays acoustic ( I don't know what model, he has several) and in our phone conversation, he was asking me about my mic selection; I gave him a general overview of what I had, and when I mentioned - in passing - that I have several dynamics, including an Electro-Voice RE20, he got excited with the idea of me Micing his a

What the best stool you've used for playing acoustic guitar?

• One that isn't squeaky, noisy and well padded?
• Would you choose 24 inch or 30 inch?

That being said, I was looking at the Taylor and Gibson stools. Gibson' s have sore butt reviews. There is nothing on the Taylor's but they look more comfortable.

I record singer-songwriter stuff (soft rock that strays into easy listening) using an AT4040 (vocal) into a Clarett pre/interface & Logic Pro X. I'm in a treated room that sounds pretty good ( I did measurements in the dihedral/trihedral corners when building bass traps & also eliminated comb with site build absorbers).

Hello Everyone,

Good to be back posting here after a long time. Would love your insights on this.

Recently I mixed a couple of tracks and even started casual listening by keeping the main ST fader on my digital mixer (Yamaha n12) at -6 db instead of 0 db, and observed that its much more enjoyable.

Hi, I am looking to record/mix a hook very similar to the way this one sounds. :22-:33 of Wes Walker's "Pop The F**k Off". [MEDIA=soundcloud]weswalker/pop-the-f**k-off-wes-walker[/MEDIA]

Hey all,

Finally finished mixing my band's latest installment in our Animals cover - the legendary 17-minute trip that is Dogs. We aimed for something respectful of the original but with a modern sheen. What do ya'll think?

For everyone who might be interested, but tagging Kurt (Kurt Foster ) in particular, because of his love for analog...

Hi, all! I'm a tech-challenged home voice-over guy. I have a Mackie board in the booth with me, but the phantom power for my mic actually comes from a separate Grace Design mic preamp outside. For "old school" phone patch, is there a way to connect either a corded phone directly, or via a Gentner MicroTel box, into the Mackie mixer for two way phone conversation with a client?

Ok so I'm all very new to this mixing deal. Basically at uni we have a new studio. We are required to spend at least 2 hours a week in this studio and get familiar. I have read lots on recording and mixing, and my classmates decided they wanted me to do the mix. I've tried just finicking with a few things and feel like I've gotten something decent... maybe.
