hello, i am a new one in recording...i play piano and sing..can anyone give me some advices how to record just a piano track and how to mix that it sounds good. (mic positions, pan, effects, reverb, ).

As a home recordist who has resigned himself to working with the benefits and limits of the DAW alone (i.e. no console, external summing or busing), I am always looking for ways to maximize the sound quality of the music I make.

All.

I’m weighing up a possible mixer solution for a home studio. The current setup is as follows:

Vocals: BLUE Kiwi / U87 -> Liquid Channel
Acoustic guitar: KM184 x 2 -> John Hardy M1
Room: BLUE Kiwi -> John Hardy M1

Preamps -> LynxTWO -> PC with Cubase SX 3

Hi Ben,

Sorry you’re not at the other place. At any rate, I have a simple question about mixing in Sequoia. I am a long time Pro Tools user and making the transition to Sequoia has been quite a challenge. I find the Sequoia manual almost useless.

i'm in a pop-punk/emo band and i've been recording my own stuff from the ground up since my band started 4 years ago (i'm now a senior in high school).

My current setup for recording guitar, bass, and vox (my drum setup is so freakin complicated i'll leave it for another day) is the following:

Hey this is C Dog from Shut Down Productions out of Northern California http:// we have been recording vocals for probably about a year now and we are always looking for good tips and advice on gettin the best quality we can out of our situation. Let me explain to you what we have. Our recording area is a 4' X 6' booth that runs to an 8' ceiling.

Hey, I was wondering if anyone has ever used a Mitec Vary mixing console? There is one on sale on ebay right now, claming an original tag price of $68,000. It says it has Neve sound, and dbx compressors. Anyone have any comments, experiances?

Thanks

I am the associate pastor of a church. Someone is offering to donate a 32 channel DDA mixer to us. It was reportedly bought new for $16K. I must admit that I am not familiar with the brand. Can someone enlighten me? Although our equipment desperately needs upgrading I don't want saddled with someone's old gear if it isn't worth having. Thanks for your help.

Would it be safe for me to assume that much or most of the noise/hiss that I am getting in my recordings (from amplifiers and what not) will be overpowered by the actual signal in the mixdown and therefore will be masked from hearing? It's registering less than -50dbs (the noise that is).

hello!

I'm going to use Alesis harddisk recorder and a console with lots of outboard gear as preamps, compressors, noise gates, effect units, equalizers...
How to use this gear on a mixdown, when I'm thinking of mix some things on a computer?
