I've got a fire pod and want to be able to make my bands live recordings sound better.

Hello Folks,
I was wondering if anyone had any experience with the new soundcraft live 8 consoles. Thanks for any help.

I am a relative beginner. I am planning on setting up a mobile recording studio. I want to be able to take my gear to customer and get a good live recording. the plan is to record the band live and overdub the vocals. this will be for demo's only. once i have a stationary studio space i can overdub everyone to scratch track.

gear i am thinking about is

Okay, Im in a band, www.myspace.com/Bro…"]Broken Silence[/]="www.myspace.com/Bro…"]Broken Silence[/] (I'm the bassiest) and I want to know what we need to record at a live show?

Hi guys,

I’m taking a survey. I am trying to get a handle on what average and max SPLs are in the real world. Hope you can help.

What are the highest levels you all have measured for average SPL and max SPL in the middle of a live audience for the following performances?

Did a search and did not find this so here goes.
Instead of starting with equipment, would like to start with a room and do the math or use software to determine how much wattage to put in it to obtain a certain dB.

Anyone know where to start to get there?
Room is approx 100x60x20.
Standard sheetrock walls.
Carpeted Floors

Thanks,
TNT

Hey guys,

Thanks for taking the time to read and respond here.

I've been rocking now for over 13 years, and playing live professionally for most of that time. Toured the world numerous times...yada, yada, yada. The style of music has always been aggressive, in the vein of the more heavy parts of metal, i.e. Metallica, Tool, Sepultura, etc.

Hello!

To start off with, I have never taken any classes in audio engineering and do not have a lot of expertise when it comes to actually knowing how various settings effect sound.

However, I do know what sounds good and can tell when something doesn't sound too good. =)

So, I wanted to get some advice concerning a few things that we run into at our church.

it seems i like i sound on lower rates. .less then 44000 but that doesnt matter...what am asking is can i change rates in live music ...i can change in sound forge while recording but can do it live when i do the show so i sound like i sound under the rate i use in sound forge when recording. .?
