Re: Where to sell my album

I think you'd have to re-register with bandcamp as a 'label' to get all your stuff on one page. I dunno if they charge extra for that.

Re: anyone working at 96k?

so what are your thoughts on plugin processing? it seems that the aliasing can be affected (reduced?) but I also understand that this varies greatly from plugin to plugin and many plugins restrict or filter the bandwidth anyway (and I for sure can't hear 24KHz...) I know some ME's upsample everythi...

Re: anyone working at 96k?

More detail is better, but (assuming good converters) the <24k part of the signal is gonna be the same at 48 as it is at 96 (leaving aside the anti-alias filter at Nyquist). I.E you have the same amount of pixels representing the part of the signal we can hear. I had one mix come in at 192. Looked a...

Re: anyone working at 96k?

Back in the mid 00s I was all about 88.2, did a few records that way. Then I did a few at 44.1. I didn't feel either was any better than the other and I've just stuck with 44.1 for all my own stuff ever since, no complaints. I think a built-in low pass filter at 22.05k is a feature not a bug, there'...

Re: A 1-mic drum recording has me rethinking so many things

it’s the drummer it’s the drums (including the tuning / dampening) it’s the room That order is correct. I'd add that the tuning/dampening/head choice is more important than the actual drums themselves. IME if the drummer and the drums are happening, the mics don't matter too much, any decent mics, ...

Re: Latest gear you've acquired.....

Hey I just got an Afterneath too! Traded in a couple guitars for some pedals. Besides the Afterneath, which I honestly have only used for a second so far, I got a Keeley Compressor+, an Earthquaker Plumes (their tube screamer) and a Walrus Audio Lore, which is instant shoegaze goodness. Also sprung ...

Re: Latest gear you've acquired.....

I played that Mascis Jazzmaster at GC and was really impressed with the quality. And ProAudioStar really have some deals sometimes, earlier this year I picked up a couple Charvels they listed as 'used' but they were brand new, still had tags on them. Normally 1k, they had them for $699. I figured fu...

Just buy another head with a port in it.

Re: Kick drum: port hole or not?

Keep that head as is and just get another one with a hole in it. Then you have options.

For recording either way can be great, just depends on what sound you're after. For live, go with the hole, your soundpeople will appreciate it.

Re: My poor hears are getting old

the older I get, the more sensitive my ears get. Same here. I'm not complaining, but sometimes it makes being out in the world a bit challenging, everything seems too loud, the beeps from supermarket scanners for instance. Back when we lived in the city, screeching bus brakes would have me diving f...

Re: I’m about to record some drums, help me not screw it up

Before you go nuts with blankets and all that, I'd suggest setting up some mics, do some recording and see how it's sounding. If it's too bright/splashy you'll know, and then you can try some blankets. Actually you could probably tell if it's going to be too splashy just by talking in there.

Re: I’m about to record some drums, help me not screw it up

All great advice so far. If you can get *something* on the ceiling right over the kit, try and do that, reflections off a low ceiling are a killer. Can make for terrible cymbal sounds that are basically impossible to fix. Can't remember if I mentioned this in your other thread, but my default spot f...
