I'm guessing your problem is because track #2 is one of the tracks you are bouncing to #1. You can't do a bounce to an adjacent track using the sync head, or at least not without greatly reducing its level. You should be able to bounce tracks 3-8 to track 1 without a problem. What is happening is w...

Tascam ATR60 bouncing strangeness

Hey guys, We ran into a strange problem the other day while recording at my friend's place on his 8 track R to R. We wanted to simply bounce a few drumtracks to 1.

thanks for sharing your experiences, though not many had positive outcomes, I have the impression. These guys are actually very good friends of mine, we go way back. If anyone has issues, I'm pretty confident that they'll be talked about and dealt with. That said, I'm not planning on making a big in...

shared ownership cuts

Hi all, I'm seriously looking into setting up a studio in collaboration with a band i already work with as a FOH engineer. They have a great rehearsal space, and there's room there for me to put up my recording gear. Now, I'm wondering how to settle this financially, taking into account these parame...

some weird shit:

Murmu?re: some kind of strange experimental black metal drone, fabricated from improvised guitar recordings, it's strangely awesome.

Th' Faith Healers: Peel sessions recordings, i got this when I saw them live at ATP a while back. cool band, a little loose. Same guy from Quickspace.

Hey,
I recorded this in 2009, released it in 2010, and now it's a free download untill the end of january 2011.

Since this came together largely thanks to knowledge picked up from all you guys, I thought I'd share.

very very happy with yamaha hs50 's for location recording

headphones can be very tiring for longer sessions. + the musicians might want to hear the recordings too afterwards.

the 15" expresscard slot got dropped because there was no more room to put it, with the new processors taking up more space inside the machine. i got a 17" a few months ago just for that slot, because more and more MADi is becoming a live console interface standard. firewire, is a big question mark ...

Thanks for the thoughts guys. I wasn't being that empirical about the terms "transparent" and "colour" when i used them. I Just prefer a subtle dynamic enhancement on 2bus rather then a transient smasher, and I guessed the fcs is more suitable for this with it's low ratio control and flexibility. ki...
