Hey there!

So, we are finally getting things all setup...we've got a 24 channel multi-track recorder and are going to run a split snake to live mix and recording/broadcast mix.

I need help choosig the appropriate Software Reverb to add a hall convolution to a recorded orchestra on 10 channels and 1 stereo microphone (the listener). The end result will be in Stereo.

I've been drafted to do the sound for a few live gigs of a band I've been working with in the studio. I have nearly no experience or training with live sound.

I've got a few questions to that extent.

1. What SPL should I be aiming at? I know that 97dB is safe for 30 minutes at a time, which is the approximate legnth of a set they're doing.

I need to be flexible in my live show setup, so that I can have different mixes for various shows. So I'm thinking a piece of gear with multiple outputs like a digital mulitracker or ADAT would be cool.Some shows will need a full mix, others will need guitar, bass or drums muted, so that I can occasionally have a live guitarist, bassist, drumer, etc. I need to be flexible in my line-up.

Hi,

Everytime when I run more than 5 instruments in Live 6 with my Macbook, it delay and display 100% usage of the CPU power. So frustrated!
Is Macbook powerful enough for recording. Will adding more ram helps? Thanks!

Hello:

Hi!

My name is Micke, I am a drummer and I also own a studio. I would like to help you by adding well recorded drums to your songs. I will do it for free as long it's a demo or no budget involved. Mainly I do this because I think it's a nice way to meet new people in the world of music.

To hear samples please visit my website:

I'd like some suggestion for Micing a mandolin live. The mando player in our praise band has been using an Ovation mandolin that has a pretty usable pickup system. Unfortunately he likes to jam with people down by the New River and ... well to make a long story short we are going to have to mic another mando on Sunday.

okay up until now (the ~5 years ive been home recording) ive always used midi drums, lately DKFH2, and have learned the ins and outs of mixing them to taste, but ive run into a problem. were recording live drums for my bands demo, and have been unsuccessful twice now.

hey guys,
