Hello.I was wondering what equipment should i buy in order to record commercial spots.Lack of space and money dont allow me to buy a mixer so I'm thinking to work only with a pc.Besides a good pair of speakers-headphones and condenser mics,what else?Should i get a mixer too?What are the benefits?Im going to pay attention on getting a good soundcard for sure.Which sequencers should i prefer?Any

I am about to be played on some radio stations, right now most are nonprofit college stations, but hopefully make it to mainstream as well. Could you tell me how I can track my radio spins? Do I have to register with something? also, when I get played on mainstream, how can I get paid royalties for plays?
Thank you and God Bless!

This probably sounds weird, but I have been using a bose wave radio as a monitor on projects I record for my band. It worked pretty good, but I wonder if it is not a good idea as stuff tends to sound fuller through these speakers then most other speakers. So I'll mix a song down to CD, put it in the CD player in my truck and then be like "were did the fullness go?"

I hope this will be simple for the many experts on this site. I want to make a home recording studio specifically for TALK RADIO, as I am the host of a daily program here in Milwaukee, WI known as God@Work.

The program is on AM radio and the format is talk only, pre-recorded, with the only music being at the very beginning of each segment.

Well I'm at a point in my life where I'm seriously considering a career change. I studied at SAE Miami for two years and graduated at the top of my class (school for that matter), worked on a few demos and have really been building my recording chops for some time now.

How do you use this to EQ your speakers and tune your room? I don't quite understand. Thanks!

i'm curious as to what i can do to make my recordings not sound like crap when they go through the radio's compressors and limiters and whatnot. i want to keep my mixes dynamic, but what can i do to the whole thing to make it not sound like crap when it runs through those compressors? should i fight compression with compression? and if so how?

Folks,

there were a number of very interesting posts that talked about the use of the analog Radio Shack SPL/dB meter to get an idea what kind of frequency response one is getting in their control room. The gadget is rather inexpensive so I went for it and gave it a go.

I do transfers from vinyl to CD. The ones that I've done for regular people, they just love. However, when I've done it for someone who tells me they are an audiophile, I either don't get a second call or they tell me the sound that they get with their ultraexpensive turntables (think LINN) sounds more alive and real.
