Useing a large diaphragm mic is kinda new to me as I have only had one for a few months (MXL 9000 tube). I have been useing the MXL 603's along with a sm-81 in a triangular pattern with the sm-81 over the snare and the 603's as R & L room mics with a bit of sucess. However now I have this big honken...

If your kinda in a boat like mine Vern, and don't have all these wonderous exotic mics to choose from (hmm... do I want to use 57 #1, or 57 #2 today?) mic placement is key. Something I started doing reacently and am very happy with is micing the SHELL of the snare. For some reason I have found this ...

I've heard about people doing this, but I've never tried it my self... so heres my dum...b questions:

Dose the board provide enough power or do you need phantom power to make it work? Do I just tack a speaker to a spliced XLR cable and away I go?

I think you have a realy good sounding recording, and it's to bad that they want you to turn it into what I'm guessing is your typical triggery-sounding mosh-core crap. you k...

Something else, (even though it dosent sound like it's going to be a huge issue at the places your checking out) would be to check and see if either place has ever had a system failure which resulted in the loss of a customers work.

I'd have spent the $$$ on a PC too. :]

Any info?

Gates are for mixdowns, not for going to disk. They are pretty awesome and I use them on just about all my drum tracks, however mine are Sonar plugins, sooo... yea. This is how I would set up a chain on mixdown: 1. Gate 2. comp/limiter/other/whatever 3. eq/whatever 3. reverb/other you might find it ...

sounds like something that might have been on the movie AKIRA

This is the 2nd most reacent recording project I have done. It's not mastered yet but oh well.

I do CD duplication, and I doubt you'll find a cheaper rate than what I can do for you. PM me if your interested.

hee hee hee... :]

So dose any one have any exp in recording non-human singers?

For example:

Hate-Beak - God of Empty Nest

and

Caninus - Human Rawhide

cant one send automation commands to a device... or am I thinking of 4 and 6 pin firewire?
