Hi
I am converting a garage/basement into a rehearsal space/project studio.

I'm using the Blue Yeti and I noticed a lot of hissing sound from the mic. I could use programs to filter it out, but I think it's better to solve the problem from the root. I have a good feeling the hissing sound is coming from feedback from the computer, it's plugged into the "crappy" RealTek one that's stock with most computers.

condition:
1) indoor dance studio about 10m x 10m
2) record conversation (not operator speech)
3) peoples will not always stay on a spot
4) Lavalier mic is not possible
5) env noise is acceptable
6) mount on ceiling at center OR tripod outside the 10m x 10m
7) connect to a small USB mixer (recording to computer)

Hi
I'm doing some research on converting my garage/basement (the house is on a hill so the back wall of the garage is essentially underground) into a rehearsal/listening/recording room.

I've been looking at 3 different wall systems from British Gypsum

Rod, Space, et al :

I'm researching absorption coefficients on OC 703 and 701.

According to Bob Gold's Chart, 703 2" (plain) mounted flush to wall has the following properties:

125 250 500 1k 2k 4k NRC
0.17 0.86 1.14 1.07 1.02 0.98 1.00

Hey all, I was just wondering at what point you considered yourself a pro sound person? This field seems to have the largest grey area as far as what actually defines a pro. It's pretty cut and dry in athletics, and most other things that use this distinction.

Hey all, I've notice recently that at some point within the first year of use, my and even my friends, consumer electronnics power amps/speakers seem to fade or settled down a bit. Whether it so my phone, my home theater, and recently my iPad, it seems to me that it takes a couple of extra notches on the volume dial, to get bit to the comfortable level I was used to initially.

Hello All,

Hello everyone,

I just bought a Copicat ic300 and it has a 2 core mains wire which means it's not grounded. I've had a look around the web but can't find instruction on how to ground it. Can anyone help? is it just as simple as replacing the 2 core to 3 core and connecting the ground to the case? or is there more to it (ie, inputs need grounding)?

Thanks in advance.

Hello all-

New here but have been on duc/gs for years. Happy to find a specific place for studio/music business discussions...
