I've been recording live recitals and performances for a while... I've asked a similar question to this before, and eventually fixed it. However, I am still bothered by this:

hi there! sorry this seems like such a silly question - i've been in a few recording studios and all of them seem to have been able to do what I can't, so I know i'm doing something very stupid here:

I'm wondering if there is any way to eliminate the high-freq hiss that is picked up when recording in live concert halls. There may be no way considering my set-up: 2 dynamic cardiod mics placed X stereo running into a Boss Br-864 (portable digital 8track recorder). I currently use the "hiss reduction" function in Adobe Audition to eliminate most of it...

Hello, I'm very new to recording.org, but I love the family sense that I see around the site so I already feel at home.

This is the problem I'm having. I bought a Nady RSM-1 ribbon mic a couple of months ago and I'm working on starting up a home studio. Well, home studio is putting it loosely. It's more like a hole in the wall...almost.

I am just starting out trying to record a spoken podcast. I have a problem that "s" sounds are creating a popping sound - please listen to this example

The recording was made on a pc using a Trust HS-4080 USB headset.

Hello all, another Newbie here.

Here is the deal, I have slowly and steadily realized after reading for many hours here that my purchase of the Behringer 2222FX may not have been a wise choice. However, that is what we have and we will make a go of it until we can afford better.

Recently we have had rediculous amounts of rain and humidity in my town, i have a home studio/practice space in my basement which tends to get a little humid unfortunately. last week my friend and I sat down to do some acoustic recording. i put the at2020 in front his guitar. when i turned on my Behringer mixer all i got from the mic was hiss.

I have a pair of Event TR-8s that are connected to my Powerbook G4 and they emit a very audible hiss (like exagerated tape hiss) when I have something connected to my Powerbook's FireWire ports. As soon as I disconnect the FireWire cable it goes away.

I have an external FireWire HD that hosts some of my sample and audio libraries and need to have connected while I work.

When I record, I record the guitar where it is loud enough, but not too loud where it is fuzzy and bassy (and of course, I make sure it doesnt clip at all).

every few minutes when playing a song through Sonar (on my emu1212m and my Tascam fw1804) i hear a SHHHHHH noise for a split second, it even happened when i explorted to wav. it doesnt happen on mp3s i play or anything else, but apparently Sonar writes the noise to wav files if it happens when I'm bouncing. what is this noise? ive tried changing my latency a lot and cant get rid of it.
