Anyone else have the "too much hi-hat in the mic" problem when micing the shell? -Z when i'm recording me, no, because i know how to play. :P i kid, i kid! as i mentioned above, with the mic 6" away, there's definitely some kick bleed in there and certainly some hihat as well. i just try to make it...

i've been using the AT4040 about 6" away from the shell, usually about halfway between top and bottom. love it. i get some good kick drum bleed in there too. try pulling the mic back a bit and see what you think. i like it better. anyway, much as i love this technique, it doesn't always work. i trie...

Yeah, I know that's a problem. See, I broke the line input real bad ... I had a little 1/4"-to-1/8" converter sticking out of it when I was moving into my apartment, and it got snapped off .. I opened it up, and the input is pretty much shattered. :D well....yeah....that might be the problem. :D i ...

Beau, I can't speak for everyone else, but on my Otari 5050, 0db on the VU is calibrated to +6, and I peak it way higher than that all the time. I think my peak lights are set at +18 (I should really know that exactly, shouldn't I? Such a bad engineer.....) and they light constantly on drums. As I m...

well, it still depends. :D it depends on what kind of tape you're using, how you have the machine set up, and how much tape saturation you're aiming for. for example, sometimes i record drums super hot to tape and squash 'em right down, other times that's not what i want and i'm a lot more conservat...

hi magritte, 1. it depends. what are you recording to? tape, hard disc, etc. 2. don't worry about it. just worry about getting each mix sounding good. let the mastering engineer worry about getting them all to play at a consistent volume. if they're reasonably mixed they should all be relatively clo...

yep. i really like the new radiohead for example, but i've had enough by track 8...for 'loud' mastering i think that's done fairly well, but it's still way too unrelenting for me. i must be too old, because that shit's too loud. on a related note, there's some good stuff from Nika on his forum at PS...

i like that too. good songs. dunno 'bout the intro to minimall, but other than that and the aforementioned eq, great job!

that's really nice.

the verb is pretty damn perfect. and any piano that turns backwards halfway through is ok by me.

yes.

That bassline rules.

yeah, from my limited time with it, the TL tube tracker definitely added some 'analog goodness' compared to mixing in the box. routing-wise it's not very flexible though, there's no assigning anything to the 2 buss, all the channels are routed there automatically...makes any kind of dub mixing prett...
