Hey there!
Well this weekend i was recording a live band with my mp3 player's external mic and I was looking around on the net for ways of cleaning up a recording. I found this forum, and decided to be the n00b and ask some people for help!

Hi,

I am recording 8 tracks live into Cubase SL2.0. Latest version, Mac Os 10.3.5, Edirol FA101 soundcard.

The problem is, that after a minute or so one of the tracks always randomly slips - i.e., misses a millisecond or two and then picks up recording with a lag behind the rest.

On really bad live recordings, there is an "ambient" noise around everything. You can tell it was recorded live. Sounds like all the mics were tracked through a tin can.
Is this the result of poor mics?
I am getting an AW4416, and want to start recording the local bands, do I need to start buying my own gear or get proficient in using the house gear.

hello all I'm trying to understand the basics of live recording. I'm planning on recording a church band using a fostex multi track rec taking the direct outs off a Mackie live mixer into the seperate tracks and adding stereo paired mics for the crowd. then dumping all into pro tools.

I am opening a cafe_coffee shop that will feature music on the weekends. I have purchased an mx2424 and plan to use the direct outs on a Midas venice to feed the recorder. There are 2 rooms that will be used for recording. One room is larger than the other and both have venice consoles...320 and 240 respectively (all recordings are live).

Hey all,

Please give some suggestions to this scenario:

(This is an on-going weekly effort):
I am recording a live jazz orchestra for delayed radio broadcast (and, later, cable TV & web). For now, this is being recorded straight to DAT - mixed on the fly. No o-dubbing, post mix work, etc.

Hi friends.Here`s my setup:

G4 733
Tascam Us-428
Behringer mic preamp-amp(two channels)
RODE NT-1

Hi All,

Im going to be doing some live recording for a worship band in early november and Im after a little advice regarding mic-ing up the congregation.

Ok, not only am I a newbie, I'm a dumbass. I posted this in the microphone forum when I intended to post it here. I'll try again.

I'm 41 and I'm a newbie. (Crowd) HELLO NEWBIE!
