hey all,

I'm asking some help with recording a trumpet, but with a twist. We are looking at recording a trumpet with a pickup mic so that it's portable on stage, and processing it through Ableton live /or reason.

I've currently got:

iMac
mbox 2
a condenser, dynamic, ribbon mics

What plugins/fx would I use to make a trumpet sounds like an organ.

An organ that sounds like something off of a live Bob Marley recording?

I have been asked to help with a recording project and need some advice. The budget for equipment is $1000.

The recording will be done in a medium size recital hall. I was thinking a pair of stereo mics in the hall, with a mic on each instrument.

Basically I am in a band, but lately indulge in abit of home recording to broaden my ideas, atm I have a little piece recorded, with some simple piano chords, and me playing guitar, there are spaces in between the guitar playing and I would like these if possible to be filled by a saxophone, if not a trumpet would be fine or even a violin would be interesting, if you are up for this little proj

Hey all- stuck here in a clogged up mix. anyone have any pointers for getting brass in a country song?

hello, I'm a trumpet player and I was wondering if anyone has any expirience with recording trumpet players as a solo instrument. What are some good techniques to help get the full sound of the instrument.

I'm really aiming for two particular sounds. One being that early Miles Davis quintet sound and the other that Roy Hargrove/Christian Scott sound.

here are examples:

Well not much money, hah.

This is my first post here. I am a classical trumpet player that needs to record practice sessions, rehearsals, and recitals.

I'm recording pre-production home demos using pro tools with an Mbox2 and a RODE NT1a. For some reason when I record Trumpet (and even sax) the waveform recorded is very heavy to the left side. I've tried moving the mic to different places, playing into the mic at different angles, etc.

Hi there,

I have a question and need some advice for Micing two trumpets in the same studio room.
