I am recording my band's rehearsals (and possible gigs down the road) using a Tascam US-16x8 and Garageband. I am using multiple tracks. and for the first attemp recorded the whole rehearsal as one project. I have used Audacity in the past (2 tracks) and it was easy to then mix and extract the different songs. I cannot figure it out in Garageband.

1. Is there a way to do it easily in Garageband?
2. Is there an easy way to do multiple projects (Songs) in one night using the same track setup?
3. Is there an easy way to move the project into Audacity (or other free option) as a multi-track project and do the mixing and song separation?

Thanks for the help.

Anyone have any recommendations to tame highs in Mastering. I'm looking at a Drawmer 1973 right now because of my budget. Trying to stay out of the digital realm right now and do most if not all my processing in the analog realm. I'm also considering saving up for a Weiss Unit or a Maslec MBC. Any suggestions for outboard gear?

Hello all. Kyle Vegas here. Brand new to your community and hoping to expand my knowledge over time. I found your forum by searching the very question I'm about to ask, which was asked elsewhere but I wasn't very clear on the results of the discussion. I'll double this question as an intro to my experience with audio and what I'm working on at the moment.

First of all, it's a safe bet to say I'm an a/v noob by your standards so if I seem ignorant on things, I apologize. I've done allot with audio as far as editting, restoration and such in programs like Sound Forge, Goldwave and Adobe Audition. I even learned Ozone over the years to remaster some old music that was "acquired" from the World Wrestling Federation way back in the day. Cassette tapes of unreleased entrance themes. I say "acquired" because we were never quite certain how they left the hands of WWF but that's another story. Bottom line is, I have no clue as to the mathematics of anything. I use my ears and I watch meters and beyond that, "I'm all like duh". It's worked for me so far.

Now, I'm pursuing a life long dream of an amateur (and budget so low it barely exists) TV show thanks to a modern day service called YouTube which will allow me to broadcast my immature hi-jynx for all my friends to giggle at. The project is so under-funded that the budget will likely be the butt of allot of the humor and I'm almost ashamed to discuss it in serious context. But I'll cut to the chase on our starting setup. I'm not sure if we can afford even a cheap mixer during our first couple months, which means using the laptop to record the audio. I refuse camcorder audio for obvious reasons. My current plan sees me using a Samson Go Mic (USB) and my assistant with a headset that connects into the mic jack. What I need to know is if there is a practical way of recording from both mics at once, one on each track, via a multi-track software environment and if so how? I opened Adobe Audition about an hour ago to discover that I was limited to having one device at a time selected. So... is there a solution for this? Or am I forced to rethink my strategy here?

Folks-

I have been using the converters that come standard with my HD24 (I typically run 44.1k, using an external clock) for some time. No real complaints, but I am thinking of upgrading my converters.

I am looking for a single space unit (yes, this is a remote rig) that will do 16 or even 24 ch AD. Eight channels won't do it, as I typically run between 8 and 16 channels.

I am looking for what are considered upper end manufacturers. What brands might you include in this club? Lavry has an 8 channel unit (yes, only eight) and I'm not sure what Benchmark has in this line... others?

Thanks, folks!

Hi,

I am trying to make buying choise for LCD aimed at vocal (including voice-over) recordings.

I have I question.. is it common-sense that multi-pattern should cost more then their unipolar variants?

For example: I am looking at two mics of choices and thinking: these two are appreciated by many but one has cardioid only pattern and costs as much as the other that is multi-pattern...

So, I like to think in the way that (since I will need cardioid most of the time) I am buying something "better" at what it does in comparison to something to does "morel" for the same price.

Conversely, AT 4047 MP and AT 4047 SV prices are equal. (Sound-wise: difference is in self-noise ... )

On the other hand, most mics aimed at vocals are already dual-diaphragm so multi-pattern should be easil achieved with internal electronics (adding, subtracting voltage combined with polalrirty reversal) ...

But, still I have a tendency for looking at cardioid mics in the (1000-1500 euros at max) price range . Am I thinking wrong?

Hi.. Ive been recording vocals/guitar/keyboard and a bit of drums for almost 2 years now, but I use a soundcraft board which runs through the "Line in" audio on my computer. My issue is when I record multiple tracks at the same time they have to be PERFECT in equalization because they all record to the same track. I'm looking to buy a new preamp system or multi track recording hardware to overcome this issue. My class in school used the PreSonus firepod which was perfect because it had 8 channels and was easy to use, but over the course of the year we broke a couple so they don't seem to reliable. I've also looked at the Phonic firefly 808. Don't really have a price range, just getting an idea of what is out there. Any help or suggestions is GREATLY appreciated.

Nick.

Hello there, first-time poster here.

I have a DAW computer with an M-Audio Delta 1010LT PCI card that I've been recording with.

I record acoustic guitar and vocals, with both doubled and panned hard left and right to get a full, warm sound.

The only way I can get perfect 0-latency recordings is if I do this:

-Record a guitar MASTER track that will later be scrapped
-Record the left-side guitar while playing back that master track
-Record the right-side guitar while playing back that master track
-Record the left-side vocals while playing back the master track
-Record the right-side vocals while playing back the master track
-Delete the master track

This is the only way I know of getting 4 separately recorded tracks to align perfectly. Obviously, it would be SOOO much easier and organic if I could just record a guitar track, then record a 2nd one along to that, and pan those hard left and right and record the vocals to them. But whenever I do this, I get latency. Nobody I've ever showed those recordings to can hear the latency, but I sure can.

My computer is dying and I need to build a new one.

My question is ---- could I get an 8-track digital recorder so that I could have 0 latency and just record tracks on top of each other instead of using a master track that every other track has to be recorded to for them to align PERFECTLY?

It doesn't matter what recording software I use, my 1010LT has latency when recording along to previous recordings. My computer is a beast, AMD 3ghz w/ 8GB of RAM and a massive video card. It is dedicated to recording, but all computer recording sucks for me as a solo artist due to having to record to a master track to avoid latency.

I'm building a new computer that will be even more beastly. Should I use a multi-track recorder to record and then import the tracks into that computer using the 1010LT for editing/mixing, or will the multi-track have the same latency issues as a DAW computer?

I realize that all digital involves some latency, but was under the impression that multi-track recorders have built in adjusters that might make it 0 or 1ms latency over the entire recording.

Thank you so much for any help or suggestions you may have!
