I want to keep things simple - probably one of the reasons I play acoustic (guitar and mandolin). I want to be able to have a Fostex-like device that will allow me to experiment musically at home and accompany myself on one instrument, while I am playing back another previously laid down track. Simple enough.

Ok i have been trying to get a decent recording using only a guitar,Nuendo and midi drums...

And i wanted to resolve a few questions in my head if I could? :)

Help! I've been looking for days for a moderatly price rackmount spectrum analyzer. Minimum 10 band 20hz-20khz if possible with two channel input preferably, so I don't have to purchase two of them.

I've seen the Alto RSA-27, but never used their equipment, and it only has one channel input and 40hz -16khz. Concerned that 40hz isn't low enough...

Hi,

I was asked by a friend to record his church choir. The choir size is 20 people and will be recorded at the church. I was leaning to the SM81's in an XY or ORTF configuration, along with one of my large condensor mics with the ISA428.

What would be the best mic choice and configuration out of the mics I have?

Thought I'd throw this out there, maybe someone will know...

I'm looking at an old mixer that I want to buy, but the thing that's baffling me is the outputs:

1 left/right lo output
2 left/right hi outputs

hi, i'm a relative newbie to recording but i start a 4 year course in sound production next year so hope to get a lot more knowledgable about all aspects of it, i can wait for most info i'll learn about equipment and what have you but would like some suggestions on what piece of equipment i could purchase just now that would allow me to record each drum on its own track and what soundcard i wou

Hello,

I am new to the forum and new to recording as well. I hope that what I am proposing is not too crazy.

Hi,
I need 16 inputs to my DAW. Please post your opinions.

Option 1)
(2) MOTU 896HD out to my CR1604 for headphone monitoring

Option 2)
Mackie onyx 1640 with firewire card, replaces CR1604

Thanks in advance for your comments.

Scott :D

I am a recording engineering student and I'm working on my final two projects before graduation. I am looking for advice on mic selection and techniques. It would be nice to beable to experiment until I find something I like but I would rather get some expert advice first. The style is fast pop punk along the lines of New Found Glory and Green Day.

Hello,
I am looking into purchasing a PA and I am wondering if anyone would be kind enough to give me a few suggestions?

-I need it to be loud enough for the vocals to be heard clearly over the rest of my band when we practice (two guitars, bass, drums, hard rock-room is about 15x15)
