So, Im doing a small live recording in a couple weeks. When I say small, it'll be just drums, keyboards, guitar, bass, and sax. For drums, I have and AKG D112, Shure Beta 57 and Shure 57, Shure SM81, and a BeyerDynamics M 201 TG. The Drum Kit I will be recording will have a kick, snare, hi -hat, 2 toms, and cymbals.

Hello guys,

This isn't recording related but I use this forum for help some times and thought someone might be able to advise.

If I get a pair of Active PA speakers or passive speaks with an amp is there ANY reason I wouldn't be able to use a Zoom R16 as a mixer for the purposes of a small live gig for about 150-200 people.

Cheeeeers

Remember this:

I first discovered this forum several years ago when I was looking for my first mixer for live gigs. After some helpful advice from this board, I wound up going with a Yamaha EMX312SC powered mixer w/ a pair of 12 Yamaha cabs. I've been exceedingly happy with this combination.

Hey there, I play in a 2 person metal band and lately during rehearsals we have run into high bleed on the mic. I'm using a Shure Beta58.

There's a music event next week that I have to record, and I was hoping to get some advice. There will be about 10-12 channels (3 vocals, guitarist, percussion, and a few other instruments), and we are using a Mackie Onyx 1640i which has a Firewire interface. I have a Dell Precision 6600 PC laptop (8 GB, Quad Core i7, approx 150GB free space), and I'll be using Mixcraft 6 as my DAW.

Looks like UA has live streaming today and tomorrow.

The PreSonus NAMMcast will be broadcast in real time Thursday, Friday, and Saturday (January 24 through 26), between 10 a.m. and 6 p.m. Pacific Standard Time, and will be rebroadcast between 6 p.m. and 3 a.m. so viewers worldwide can enjoy the show.

Ableton Live Suite 9 looks like one of the best DAWs going now. I should really take the time to get to know it more. Share you comments on 9 here?

I need to buy a new pair of monitoring headphones and was just wondering what people on here use for live sound monitoring?

Some of the specifications I am looking for are closed back, encapsulating the ear completely, comfortable headband, single lead from one side and neutral response.
