:roll: Can this mic do professional vocal recording, i dont really know, can somebody help me?

Im runnin line in from an acoustic pickup, and from an electric Bass into a mixing board, to a soundblaster in my comp.

is it all about the Preamp, because my sound qaulity is not what I'm looking for, i gotta boost stuff in my editing prog and it muffles it even worse... i get hiss and just an over all bad sound.

I've got a big label band coming to my home studio to record a track for my Pantera/Damageplan tribute project I'm putting together. I told them over and over that this is a small format DAW setup, but they keep saying they don't care and they want in on the project.

first off, i'm new to this forum, but i have been browsing through it for several months now, and it seems there are a lot of knowledgable people here.
so anyway here's my question:
i'm working with a hardcore band that does a lot of screaming. how can i get that raunchy screaming effect heard on most commercial CD's, such as atreyu, slipknot, or bands of that genre?

Just solved a problem in the DAW concerning offline processing (track bouncing artifacts w/ plugin applied), by moving back to ASIO drivers (from WDM.)

What is it exactly about ASIO that makes it superior to WDM (or, is it)?

After using several low end recording programs for my personal use, I've decided to bring Pro Tools into my home studio, transforming the studio into a digital one.

However, as I've only used PT6 in a few studios (with minimal plugin useage)... I'd like some opinions about the Mbox Factory Bundle.

Is it worth the extra $100?

maybe its here already, i didnt find it. .can any one post some in phase/ out of phase sound clips, maybe in high fidelity. .some of use may need some ear training.

This is rather silly, but I'm trying (really really hard :roll: :? ) to remember what the brand was that made these 8-channel pre's you could break into 24 outs and stuff. Think it was quite a big box (2-3 unit) and I have a sneaking suspiscion that it was made in wales or somewhere in britian anyway... Any tip gladly appreciated! :D

Hey there all. I'm new to this sort of stuff and i jus wondered if i could have a little advice. I'm using Sony soundforge 7 and say when i try record something from a CD or windows media player it sounds really quiet when i play it back either in soundforge or in windows mp. it seems to help if i turn my speakers up to full but its still to quiet.

Hello I am new to the forum, i think this site is great.

I am using my house for a recording studio, I have my mac in the basement and i do most of my tracking in my living room. I am using a snake to do this. Do you think i am loosing any of my signal or quality? Anyone?
