Better sounding digital outputs

Submitted by dze on Fri, 07/08/2016 - 22:01

Hi there,

I'm looking at some sort of device or equipment that I could use to sweeten up the digital sounding outputs of my PreSonus Firestudio. Basically I'm using it the output to send it to effects or anywhere in the studio chain.

I'm good at soldering, hence I'm also looking for DIYing better compressor or eq.

The Reckoning - original song mix advice

Submitted by DogsoverLava on Sat, 07/02/2016 - 16:56

Here's a new song of mine - came together pretty quick - interested in any mix critique and also strategies to tame the lead vocal - I'm not sure exactly what I'm trying to do - I don't think it's just volume envelope I'm after, but I don't know if I need some sort of compression or limiter or something to keep it out front but taming the idiosyncratic phrases or loud parts.

Rendering...when to in your workflow and for quality?

Submitted by DogsoverLava on Wed, 06/29/2016 - 10:29

Up until now as I've worked in Reaper when I render my project I've done an all or nothing kind of thing - rendering everything as the mastermix and I realize there may be some limitations on this.

Now my computer is powerful enough to handle this - lot's of headroom with memory and CPU -- I'm assuming I shouldn't lose quality with this approach but I may be wrong.

Hi Guys - I've been working on this since December and it has been out for vocals for a while now - it's looking like my vocalist may or may not be indisposed so I thought I'd post it here in this mix sans vocalist and see what you think.
