Hello!

It's been a while since my last post. I need some help with EQ on my vocals.

Here is a part of a song of mine, which I recorded with a Shure SM7B directly into a Focusrite Saffire Pro24.
[MEDIA=soundcloud]id=https%3A%2F%2Fsoundcloud.com%2Fouzo77%2Fa-part-of-you%2Fs-1rnF9;secret_token=s-1rnF9;track_id=144163753[/MEDIA]

I'm recording through my bluebird blue condenser microphone connected to my M-Audio M-Track Interface that is then obviously connected to my laptop through USB. I find that when I listen to the mic through the direct option the sound is crystal clear, but when I switch to the USB there is a consistent crackling noise.

Are there any audio interfaces (preferably firewire), that have built-in delay?
I've yet to see one (although many have other built-in effects).
It would need to have hardware routing (not much point in built-in delay, just for recording).
I have a setup that requires sending a delayed signal and we've been doing it with Reaper (software routing and delay).

I am not a believer in a lot of audiophile tweaks but I just found something that is pretty amazing. I put these under my ALON I vs.

Hello experts.
I would like some advice in stereo recording. I've read the books but I want to ask, out of your own experience, how do you pan tracks recorded using the following stereo techniques?

X/Y
Spaced pair
Blumlein pair
Mid Side
Decca tree

Thank you for your help!

So I've been working on some tracks for awhile now and I was kind of baffled by this. What causes a track to sound crisp and professional on computer speakers/headphones/ipod players/etc and terrible on every car stereo?

Hello all, i'm new to this forum so i might be posting on the wrong sub-forum, excuse me if i am.

How about it? What was your first real mixing desk? That first big purchase where you graduated from a Peavey, Sunn, Biamp, Tangent or Tapco board to the " big time"? LOL

Here's mine...a Neotek Elan... (Man, I sure miss that desk) I bought this to replace a Tascam 300 Series:
