i'm really into shoegaze stuff and am trying to write and record stuff in that vein. i know that volumes can be (or already have been) written about MBV 'loveless.' i believe that technique was a TON of vocal tracks. but i'm also referencing bands like earlimart, jesus and mary chain, and black rebe...

my favorite atonal (at times) singer from one of my favorite bands is wayne coyne from the flaming lips. LOVE THOSE GUYS! such character to his voice. especially on the old material.

thanks for the continued responses.

and kayagum, thanks a ton for your informative post! some great info and insight in there. i appreciate you taking the time. cheers!

i think it is surprising based on the experience i had when recording the vocal i mentioned in my original post.

thanks for the responses. seems like most are saying that the room *does* matter even when using the sm58. interesting.

first some background.....i have an untreated room that definitely isn't going to be great sonically. after recording some vocals with an sm58 while sitting in front of my monitors singing along with the music, i realized that even though the sound level coming out of the monitors was of a moderate ...

$550. the mixer has never left my room and is in perfect shape. i haven't had any issues with the firewire card, the tracktion program version 2.0, or the mixer itself. overall it's a great piece of kit. i'm selling it because 12 channels for me is overkill and it takes up too much room on my desk. ...

another vote for firefox. i used safari for a long while on my mac before switching. i just feel that firefox seems faster.

for sale for $600. the mixer has never left my room and is in perfect shape. i haven't had any issues with the firewire card, the tracktion program version 2.0, or the mixer itself. overall it's a great piece of kit. i'm selling it because 12 channels for me is overkill and it takes up too much room...

thanks a lot for the load of good info kojdogg. with my situation i think there is virtually no chance i will be recording a live band or live drums.

hmmmm, the plot thickens.... thanks a lot for the comments. the reviews i've read so far on the internet seem like the duet would be a big jump in sound quality. but you're saying it may only be minimal. interesting. because i have less gear now than when i bought the mackie board i could have all m...

one bump and then i'll go away.
