Hi everyone, I'm a wet behind the ears newbie. In the coming months I'll be doing a series of langauge recordings for a program I'm working on.

These will be done with mixers and microphones in a home studio type environment(exact equipment to be determined).

Hey everyone I have a question and would like some opinions and thoughts on the idea. Since I've started my music production career,my studio has been mixer less, but now I'm looking to replace my M-Audio 2626 Audio Interface and a few PreSonus Studio Channels with 2 daisy chained PreSonus StudioLive 16.4.2 Digital Mixer's.

I'm getting annoyed with my CD burning freeware and looking to buy a "grownup" product. CD Architect has more than I need, but I might put out some "home mastered" disks in the future and programs like Roxio and Nero seem to be bloated with "easy to use" video editing. There were good reviews of CD Architect a few versions ago - is it still top of the heap? Anyone out there using it?

Due to the strength of the Australian dollar at the moment I can get a Focusrite Saffire PRO24 for an awesome price. Does anyone reading this use one? Can anyone encourage or discourage me in buying one? Any criticisms or weird incompatibilities anyone knows about. I'd be using it with an intel q6600 cpu PC, 4GB Ram, Windows 7 using Reaper as my DAW.

Hello,

This is a slightly different take on the impossible question of "which Mic should I buy!"

Hey guys, I'm about to buy a KSM44A, to record mainly vocals and speech, etc.

What are your opinions on this almost US$1000 mic?

Would you recommend something different for the same price?

Update: Just stating, I also record softer and screaming rock vocals. Need some versatility.

O.K., so my solicitations of mic opinions is growing exponentially, as even the casual observer might note, but in any event, what about the SE1000A? It comes in at under $200. This company is working in conjunction with Rupert Neve, and that is not a bad name to have on board.

So, any opinions on this mic, or this company's products overall?

I recently recorded an acoustic guitar track that has great mids and high end, but was very bass shy. I could make the track sound more complete by using a really broad bass boost that was on the order of 18dB at the lowest frequencies, falling ski slope style to normal at the low mids.

It sounded good, but my intuition was that this was too much use of EQ.

Been lurking around these forum's for a while. Finally able to start building my mic closet slowly. Looking at building up a set of drum mics, starting with some studio projects c4's and a set of Sennheiser e604's. Wanted to ask if anyone had any strong feelings for/against these mics? Thanks in advance
