Re: TapeOp University

book all the time you can... i went to recording school, and though i did learn a few things in class... the studio time was what made it worthwhile. i was in there every night i could messing around, mixing, recording, just experimenting with mics and such. that's what made the whole experience wor...

Re: Quality Reliability Of Behringer Mixers?

I think you've got plenty of "don't buy behringer" type advice, so I'll just give you a suggestion for an alternative.... if you can deal with having just 16-tracks, buy an Allen & Heath Mixwizard 16:2. I have one... and I love it... you get far more high end definition than you ever would with a Be...

Re: Why would anyone...

do churches really go on sale that often? maybe it's because i live in texas... but i have never seen an old church boarded up and for sale... though i do constantly drive by them and think... man... i bet you could get a mean drum sound in that church.

Re: Why would anyone...

there are going to be a lot of musicians who still want studio recordings. in your house, you have your bills, your problems, your girlfriend, your playstation and that nasty smell from when you left your leftovers out too long. there are so many distractions... going into a studio is an excellent w...

Re: Why would anyone...

no matter where you open, for every one cool band you record, there's gonna be five hundred "they think they are" bands. that's just life. but really... don't open studios... that way when i get my shit together well enough to move from home/mobile recording to a full studio... there's less competit...

Re: Why would anyone...

well, mine wasn't really supposed to be a "they wouldnt." with all the unoccupied retail, office, and warehouse space, rent prices should be falling. this, coupled with low interest rates, actually makes this a reasonably good time to get into a business, as long as you could make it through the fir...

Re: Is Our Popular Culture Sick? (a.k.a. Elliot Smith, Part

Folks, is our popular culture sick? Are we eating ourselves from the inside with gratuitous hostility, bitterness, rage, and lust? Look: I'm not one of those people who thinks that the blame for a violent society lies with violent song lyrics. Certainly, rappers, rockers, and crooners are singing a...

Re: i've been converted from overdubbing to 'live band'

try it with just the overheads, since they would get the most bleed anyways... if need be, you could even just do one overhead.

Re: i've been converted from overdubbing to 'live band'

you could try dropping some subtle reverb on it to drop it back in the mix... either with a processor, or maybe reamp it into the room where you recorded the drums, so it sounds like it was in the same room, only further to the back.
