thats pretty cool.

i like the ambience it has. was it mostly from the room or is there a lot of artificial reverb?

I think about $120-150.

hmm, i would say youre probably right about guitars not really needing as much distortion as you would think. especially if you layer them. so thats one thing to try. also, i think one of the best ways to create separation and make it feel like everything has its own individual place is using front-...

I was readinng the Bob Katz mastering book and in it he mentioned using short delays that would fuse with the direct sound due to the Haas effect and how it can be used to simulate the early reflections one might experience in a more reverberant room (i.e. if youre tracking is done in a dry room). T...

what are some things to look out for when trying to find a facility in which to locate your studio? specifically with regard to existing structures that were not originally designed for recording. some things that come to mind would be high ceilings, size, something that can be modified flexibly...b...

for my home studio i called it 'strawberry fields' cus the walls are a luscious green color.

now i am thinking of moving into a new space and would need to come up with some name. its hard to think of something cool.

I have a few extra 703 panels. probably around 6, but ill have to check for the exact count. they are 2" thick and some of them have the reflective foil paper on one side. Ill sell em for $10 a piece if you come pick them up, maybe even cut a deal if you want the lot of them. I live in Ft. Worth, PM...

I think the reasons these processes have remained fairly independent thus far are not things that will be rendered archaic as new technology and 'modernization' take hold. theres no arguing the ability to edit quickly and efficiently and try things out is greatly enhanced in the DAW, but being able ...

I'm thinking about installing 2" 703 on my ceiling, but can I really just nail it in there? Also, does it NEED to be wrapped in burlap or is that for aesthetic purposes only? Will it fall apart if I don't? yes you can. you can even leave a little air space between the panel and the ceiling. even 1 ...

i have never had much luck with omni overheads. maybe its just the suckiness of my room or the suckiness of my playing.

ive seen that before, havent been able to find that book anywhere though. Sunflower and Surfs Up are two of my favorite Beach Boy albums, though much more from a songwriting than an engineering sandpoint. Id love to read that book though.

I'm interested in this too. Another interesting pair would be the Avensons. I'm trying to decide between those 3. My guess is that the Avenson's would be the most natural sounding but very dependent on your room. I wonder are the Josephson's brighter sounding than the Octavia's? I hate edgy soundin...

beach boys - 'dont talk put your head on my shoulder' is one of the few melodies that still gives me the same feeling it did the first time i heard it.

maybe double it with various delay or other effects on the double. definitely try some EQ.
