Re: good guitar sounds

I've found that for crunchy guitars, set the amp for less gain (distortion) than you would playing live, then compress it in the mix.

I'd be more daring with my high-pass filters than the others...

Re: please recommend good vocal mic, cost

Namaste, it looks like you really want to buy some stuff. I saw your post on drum mics, too.

If you buy two Audio-Technica 4033s, you have a killer vocal mic, plus some really nice stereo...

You mean just under $1000. I got all excited for nothing.

Re: Avalon 737 $1450...

I've heard more than one engineer say that the Avalon 737 is god's gift to bass tracking. A TDM buddy of mine uses his all the time and loves it.

Re: New song and a Music video to go with it.

DUDE!!! I hadn't been impressed like that for a while. I was actually getting into the plot line and everything. I gots to get me Final Cut Pro.

Re: "Apple Care" or not?

I once had a logic board fry two days after my warranty expired. I had to bite the bullet for the $800 replacement. Ouch.

PC extended warranties aren't worth it because PCs are so cheap, but...

that "3d" quality

Re: Sennheiser 421 vs AMT A95 for Toms?

Dig an ATM25 (NOT the "PRO" version) on floor tom.

And 421s are classics for a reason. They make a good kick mic, and are also sweet on a guitar cab if you need something other than a 57.

Re: the best ACOUSTIC guitars for recording???

I hate recording Taylors. They don't have any bass (modern ones, that is - the old ones that he built by himself in the late 1970s are great). Gibson J-45s are the way to go, or at least something...

RE20 kick drum technique

Does anybody else use an RE20 for kick? If so, how do you do it?

Great kick mic, by the way. I got so tired of the D112. This was just the ticket.

Thanks,

Re: Help! desicion with overheads

afraid of commitment - submixing

Re: phasing?

Anything "flangey" on the swishing of cymbals is usually a dead giveaway.

What instrument are you having trouble with? Or is this a general question?

Anyway, when I sing with...

mix system vs. digi 002 with dual proc

Re: Octavia mics are they ok for 69.00

if at all possible, try before you buy. Quality control on oktavias varies wildly. I have two pairs of oktavias. One sound amazing (for the $$). One sounds like crap.
