i was going to say double track and treat the two tracks with different EQ curves, effects, etc. but it looks like many have beaten me to the punch.

during my time assisting and engineering, i endured some assholes, and i also met some really wonderful people. i learned a lot from both. the only reason that i am not still slaving away in the studio is $$$. which sucks... but i got coffee and took dinner orders and took the blame when it wasn't m...

glad the board is up, no criticisms, just thanks to all who put time into its resurection and who continue to put time into its operation. i've been spending my days arguing politics on the myspace boards. good to have a non-political way to kill some time at "work."

hey folks. i'm a recovering guitarist/audio engineer/producer (got a real job and hate it, though not being broke is nice) living in Salem, MA. i would love to get involved in a recording project. though I have very little gear of my own to offer, i would be thrilled to work as a freelancer in a stu...

here's a serious one--a mistake i made in a session with a young but experienced engineer who set me straight later that evening... even if you think you know more than the engineer, don't EVER contradict his/her opinion or practices in front of the client. ask questions and even challenge the engin...

i read the review of the new AT2020 (was it the 2020?) in the last tape-op. i'm not sure if it's technically below $100 but having used AT mics before, that (along with a cheap tube mic pre) will be my next purchase for my home studio. i want a LDC, something versatile and with some depth to the sou...

i put an ad on craigslist in NYC advertising cheap recording rates at a good studio in manhattan during the overnights. a producer answered the ad and I did 2 sessions with him, one that was 3 nites, one that was one. we recorded basic tracks for a couple of different artists he was producing. they ...

leverett and sunderland MA are not cities. but i miss 'em all the same. i'm so done with NYC...

people who think man is destined to conquer nature are fuckwads. and they're also wrong. and we're all going to die someday.

i work in a v/o studio in manhattan. we use the Focusrite ISA 428, which i purchased for the studio based on the high end focusrite stuff's reputation alone. it's proven to be an EXCELLENT choice for v/o work. crystal clear and clean. the ISA 430 might be a better choice for you as it has many built...

the recording industry and the recording studio industry. butter. Mike amen. well, i still like butter. but i'm going to work in IT. fuck if i can make a living recording music. it's not worth it. since i've been working as a "professional" engineer, i've been doing less and less music recording an...

it's a hallmark holiday. i ignore it for the most part. as does my fiancee, so i'm lucky there.

ok, now to officially hijack this thread...

to the artist formerly knows as lance romance--what happened on the L train that has you so preoccupied with its destruction?

can you save them as wave files on the pc before burning a disc? just a thought--maybe VST on the the mac is expecting a PC file to be a wav and not recognizing it as aif. maybe it actually is not an aif or somewhat improperly formatted aif. itunes may have looser 'regulations' as to what it will pl...
