Hi all,

I am just getting into sound and am very much a novice. I recently purchased a Zoom H4n and a pair of MXL 603s. I'm attempting to record a choir I'm in using this gear. I've made some test recordings and have also recorded a rehearsal. In these recordings I'm noticing a low frequency bumping noise.

Hi, I have an audio cassette that I am going to transfer to digital.

I am new, and I probably am not searching with the right terms to find my issue, so I am asking...

I recently purchased a PreSonus Audiobox USB and made my first attempt at recording to my computer. Used the StudioOne Artist software which came with the PreSonus unit. Recording to my laptop, a custom-built (by PCLaptops) with i7 quad. I do not "seem" to have any issues with multi-tracking--but I guess I have read so much about "latency" issues that I'm paranoid.

Hello all,

So I've been digging around and stumbled on these Zoom H4n (Or H2) portable recording devices. From everything I'm reading online these things sound like a dream come true for those like me who are on a budget. I currently have a M Audio Interface unit (lower price range) which I've been plugging mics in directly for recording.

I am Micing an acoustic guitar with 2 condensor mics(not the greatest, but fair), using an ART Tps II 2 channel preamp, and a Korg D888. In the past I felt I have recorded with the levels too loud, not peaking, but with the gain high enough that it creates a guitar tone that is far from what I desire. I have found at lower levels the tone is more natural and warmer.

After a few ( for the lack of a better term) Track Talk sessions, which are Pre Mixing Contest Trials, the single most important issue I've discovered is consistency between everyone's monitoring systems. I've noticed the majority appreciate mixes that are excessively heavy in bass.

Why is this and is my assessment accurate?
Does this even concern you?

Hi all,

I've just invested in a RODE M3 mic to do some outside acoustic recording job tomorrow with a little band. I apparently have two choices - either high or low pass filters which have different effects in different scenarios!
