I was thinking of recording my tracks at 22kHz/12bit instead of higher rates to reduce CPU load while recording and subsequent processing.

I'm interested in buying some api mic preamps for recording drums, guitars, and vocals. I recently used the 3124 unit on drums and was quite happy with the results. Before I make my purchase, I'm wondering if anybody out there can educate me about the characteristics/applications/history of other api mic preamps?
Also, what are some examples of the famed "LA sound".

hello!

I have this question and i wonder if you could help me solve it.

I'm using Soundcraft 10 to record basically 2 channels (one for vocal, one for instruments)into Adobe Audition 2.0 and Steinberg Cubase SX3 through an M-Audio Delta 410 PCI interface.

I have $1500.00 the area in which I lack most in my studio (home studio)
Is a high-endvocal mic or preamp, my main mic now is a RODE NT1 and a PreSonus pre, if you had the money what would you get? a U87 vox mic or a high-endpre, I am not knowledgeable in this area I just know my vox arent up to par with the rest of the recordings, I use a 4X4 vocal booth,

hey guys whts up...i m doing mixing now a days of an album i have done.. i m dealing with the person who has some issues with the bass...he wants his bass to stand out as well as kick... his voice is very MIDDY. and yet he wants the crisp... now i have mixed it quite well the thing is i m confused about selecting bass tone...

Hey,
I am recording hip hop in a home studio. I have a good quality Shure vocal mic. I've built a mic booth before, but I don't have the space or resources to go through that process again. I'm set up in the corner of a room with flat walls and ceiling and a hardwood floor. Predictably, I have a horrible flat echo on my vocal tracks.

I'm going to been recording rap vocals in my home studio and need recommendations for a mic preamp to rent. I'll be renting a U87 and everyone knows how notoriously poor the mic preamps are in the 001. Any advice would be great!

Thanks in advance!

Hey Everybody. So, I know these types of questions come up quite a bit but I was hoping some of you can point me in the right direction for building a project Studio for somewhere in the area of 9k.

Hello,

I want to start a small home recording studio to record interviews and discussions with 3 -4 people. No music will be recorded, just speech.

I am building my first project studio and I need some advice choosing a good tube based condenser mic for vocals.

my budget is roughly $500-$600 and while I usually prefer to buy used, the delicate circuitry of these mics makes me want to go for a new one so I can be sure there are no surprises.
