Alright heres the deal, my band has started the recording process, and we are new to this, but not new to the point where we dont know anything were doing. Were recording with an Audio-Technica condeser special edition mic and a digital interface so that we have a good sound card, and we are using adobe audition.

So, I've got a dude coming over to play some sitar for a recording. I will be using an AKG Perception 420. Bare in mind that P420 mic has three modes: omnidirectional, cardioid, and figure 8. I will be recording at my small house. The problem is that I have wooden floors and not much stuff in the hoiuse to soak up reverb. Any tips on how to record here?

Is there a good 3rd party AU RMS Meter plugin out there for Mac or are the ones supplied with Logic accurate enough? Looking for a plugin that might be better/ more accurate (if that is needed).

Just a heads-up for anyone who has ever thought about going to Recording Workshop...

Fairly major changes to their 2011 curriculum.

Going to a recording school is not the best path for all, but it is a good path for some.

Recording Workshop has been doing it for years... has a pretty good, world-wide reputation...

Not crazy expensive either.

Hi everybody,
I'm new on this forum and I'm enjoying it very much.

There's one thing that I'm really interested in, and it's a subject that is not easy to find nor abundantly discussed on the internet:
Guitar layering techniques in today's pop/rock music.

Hey everyone! I have been trying for some time now to set up a home studio. I started with a laptop running Vista 32bit with a Intel duo core processor and 3 gigs of RAM running Cakewalk Sonar Home Studio 7. I still have not been able to get Cakewalk to operate on that system without dropouts and glitches in the audio.

I need a little help.

Hello again!

I have one question that has to be knocked out a little quick. I have two options. Either go with computer mixing and headphone mixing, OR using an outboard mixer that uses its inserts as directs outs (ONE CLICK), so i can make my own hardware mix, and not rely on the computer to process it. the problem isn't money, as there is only about a 20 dollar difference.

Hey people, I hope all is well and am glag to be here part of a site so interactive for the love of music. I bought this set up a while ago with a buddy, he used it all last summer and did not get much done, so I bought his half and now I have the equipment.
