also, if you were not using all functions of the mixer, maybe you could just cover part with a standard bath towel? cheap, easy to move, and washable.

I should clarify - I'm talking about a literal desk (Output Platform), not a mixing desk.

How about a modified rubber floor mat that you could cut to fit all the surfaces? Good idea, but do you think rubber would be absorbent enough? My Be Quiet PC case has got some sort of acoustic padding on the inside panels, sort of like this but higher quality: https://www.newegg.com/silverstone-sf...

Treating the ceiling above your desk/listening area is so much more important. Luckily, my ceiling has a texture which gives it a bit of diffusion. Unluckily, it would be tricky to hang a cloud from. Maybe I'll consider some absorption up there in the future, but for now I'm just talking about the ...

I just got a new desk that has a very large work surface, which I love, but I realize it's going to introduce some reflections (my old setup was arranged in such a way that this wasn't an issue). Has anyone here used acoustic absorption on their actual work surface, as opposed to walls? If so, what ...

Wasted at least an hour trying to track down the terrible distortion I thought was coming from my tape deck or mixer, only to realize it was the shitty B*hringer headphone amp I was using.

Just don't feed it after midnight.

Just ordered this little thing off eBay: https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/sW0AAOSwPuNfzBVo/s-l1600.jpg I've really been wanting to record fretless bass on a track, and thought about either buying a cheap full-size one (but I don't need another giant instrument taking up space) or de-fretting my curren...

No idea what model, but it sounds like one of those "rhythm boxes" that come attached to cheap organs or sometimes as standalone units. They usually have a bunch of patterns to choose from, but can't actually be "played" like a drum machine.

Try an impulse response like one of these? https://gumroad.com/pasttofuturereverbs?sort=page_layout&tags=impulse%20response Demos: https://soundcloud.com/pasttofuturereverbs/sets/real-vinyl-record-impulse-responses-demo https://soundcloud.com/pasttofuturereverbs/gramophone-ir-off-on-demo https://sou...

I'm resurrecting this thread because I might have to jump software platforms when I get a new computer later on if I can't reload my outdated/preferred software (Sony Vegas 9.0, I know, I'm weird). Quick question: Can you freely nudge audio tracks in the software with a simple click and drag of the...

Echoing digitaldrummer (pun intended), you'll probably want to check out convolution reverbs if you're interested in "real" spaces. There's got to be a free one out there, and lots of people have made their own impulse responses available for the community! Also, another cool one is Waves Abbey Road...

the vocal compressor on Jet's "Are You Gonna be My Girl".

What's the story with this?

Upgraded to Nuendo 11. This is like a damned spaceship!!! https://new.steinberg.net/nuendo/new-features/?et_cid=15&et_lid=22&et_sub=Nuendo%2011 I'm seriously considering it for post-production work, with the intent to start working in Atmos soon. But last I checked, you had to get a dongle just to ...
