Hey guys, I am trying to connect with people who are in need of audio restoration services. I am trying to offer a service which I don't know really exists out there, which is when you are mixing and you find you have a noisy track, clicks and pops, background hum, a squeaky chair, etc, that you don...

Hey, so the studio I work at has a room with availability for someone who would be interested in doing a share. It is the owner's personal room which he uses for Mixing, Mastering, and Production. He uses it during the day, so he is looking for someone who might want to use it only at night, maybe f...

ns10s have a bump between about 2k-4k, which is the area of the frequency spectrum most harsh to our ears, and therefore the most fatiguing. You should try the old paper over the tweeters trick, thats cuts back on a little of that harshness, but not all that much. If you are getting a headache after...

my experience with squier has been that they have no quality control. In other words, you and I might both buy the same bass and yours might be really solid, and mine might be really shitty. Even mexican fenders have this issue. Im a bass player, and I'm a big fan of Spector basses. for the same pri...

IMHO, for that price point, a pre wouldnt be worth it, because the firepod pres are really good, and for 300 bucks youre not gonna get much better than that. you are better off waiting on a pre until you can get a really badass one (unless your problem is that you need more inputs, then thats anothe...

I know a very good tech who isnt that expensive, if youre interested. Let me know

I think your cheapest and best option would be to just buy another nt1a (or whichever 'NT' model you are using)

NT1As on OH is pretty amazing for the price, and it also makes a great vocal mic

Thanks guys, this is a great thread. I guess sometimes its easy to forget how long it takes to break through... and the current climate can be sort of discouraging, especially when you have to wonder if you're gonna make rent this month

thanks for all the good advice guys.

like you guys said, I do genuinely show interest in a bands music, not their money, so hopefully that will lead to more good things in the future.

It seems like freelancing is the only way to engineer anymore. As far as I can tell, the only way to have any future in this business is to get your own clients, do you agree? That said, do any of the more experienced engineers out there have any tips for someone looking to build up their own client...

So I just got laid off, and while I collect unemployment and look for a job (like the other 8% of americans) , Id like to take advantage of my extra free time by giving it to whatever studio/engineer/band/producer etc would need it. Ill work for basically free in the NYC and surrounding area. Hell I...

my experience with the nyc compression is yes, a parallel bus. one thing i LOVE to do with drums is bus all the tracks (sometimes everything but overheads) into a single mono aux channel, compress the hell out of it (threshold thats constantly working, 10:1, quick release), suck out some 500hz and ...
