impossible, we all know the D112 makes every bass drum sound like a clicky kickball.















kidding of course - sounds great, drums in particular!

the cd & vinyl will definitely sound different. there's a balancing act the vinyl ME will make between length of sides, level and distortion - they're all sort of interrelated - as well as any sort of discretionary processing like de-essing or broad EQ shifts to make your material work best with the...

i think there's SOME truth to the above post about moving to a bigger market - but really the only reason that's true is because more 'real' bands are active there. of course, there are 'real'* bands from everywhere. the key i think is to be involved with 'real' bands. bands who put out records, tou...

definitely not as good as the sytek - but at the same time i use them all the time on guitars - just the way the gear i have lays out. it's a decent little preamp that's also come in hand on some small remote things i've done as well. i'm not in front of mine, but i'd imagine you could track down a ...

I've used CD baby just for digital before, but it took them a LONG time to get the stuff up. I haven't had such positive experiences with the orchard either. I know this is a bit of a nay-sayers post but I'm certainly interested in tunecore, and I"ll let everyone know how it goes for me. I just rel...

Re: Analog Recording?

wow - this thread is great! i saw the first few posts when they started and put the "not this conversation again' blinders on, but when i saw we were up to 7 pages i had to see what's transpired. well played everyone - been a while since we've had one of these!

crazy. i did a record there in 2005 - right about during the mouse-eating the console times before it was sold to new guy. can't say i'm too suprised, but i tell ya - that live room sounds fantastic. one of the coolest things was if you had the door open to the hallway leading back to the control ro...

Re: Do labels have right to multi-track archives??

I recorded my own band's full length... That's a crux right there. It's a convention in "fair minded" indie rock deals that if a band ponied up all the $ themselves to record and master, the label doesn't get as much control over the recordings and masters. The more the label paid for studio time a...

Can you explain what you mean? basically, that means you own the SONG, the idea. the label will now own the recording, a physical manifestation and specific instance of that SONG or idea. this is how a studio album could come out on one rec...
