So I've been recording these two fellows for awhile and was wanting some advice. I have been using Audacity, with a Tascam US-144 and a RODE SM6 mic, shock mount, and RODE pop filter. Here is a song that has been recorded http://www.youtube…. I personally am not happy with how my vocals sound.

I have a little mixer called the Behringer Xenyx 1202 FX
 
What I would like to do is monitor my vocals with the effects from the mixer along with the output from my computer's sound card through the headphone Jack on the mixer.
But when recording, only record the dry vocals back into my computer. I have tried many things but nothing is really working.

Hi, i hope this is posted in the right section, sorry if its not.

Well i'm wanting to start recording my music mainly just acoustic and vocals
and to be honest i have no idea at all what i need to buy to get decent recordings done

Being primarily a solo artist I do my best singing while playing the Acoustic guitar. This creates a problem when I record as my Vocal track picks up artifacts from my guitar. In an effort to get as CLEAN a vocal track as possible I have tried Noise Gates, EQ and any other method I could think of to reduce the guitar in the vocal track.

So I recorded my first song recently back in December '10 and I did it at my buddies setup that he has at his church. I moved and I no longer have that available to me, so I was thinking that I should just buy my own equipment and learn how to record on my own instead of having to go over to someone elses place and whatnot.

What would be a nice lil' mic to record vocals over youtube? Maximum $100 XD. I plan to use Garage Band, so yeah...all amateur recording. Any suggestions?

Hello everyone. I'm kind of a n00b here, but my interests are very high, so please excuse my inexperience. I don't even know if I'm in the right forum, but I'm looking for a music program that is:
A) reasonably easy to get into and understand
B) has a variety of options
c) Has the capability to record my vocals

I could not find local talent to record with, but lots of people are in other countries with talent and who want to record. This is just hip hop sort of recording.

Anyhow, there is one artist I'm interested in.. I would like to make a whole mixtape with her, but in her city it's expected she pay for studio time and we both can't afford that.

I have intermittent vocals. The mix is essentially done (i.e., all instrumental parts) and busy, or full. I think I want to lightly duck part or all of the various tracks of the mix at the vocal parts, but in Cubase LE4, there appears to be no way to do that except automate volume on each individual track.

Hey this is my first post and at the same time the same problem that has hunted me for years:

When I record with my mic the first thing I usually see is a line, the first thing I hear during playback...well nothing. This has made recording with my equipment impossible for the past year.
