The bass needs a higher mid freq boost (lets say around 5K or 6K), scoop out some of the funk around 150-400 if you didn't already. I am using headphones and I know I am getting way too much of that bitch for having headphones. What are you using to mix? The kick could also use a big upper mid boost...

suck my click BlTCH!

You aren't the center of the world. Or this thread.

Mixing is retarded. I don't have any extra plugins. So it's extra retarded. But once I get the hang of it, I'm going to put up a mix for all to hear. (not the crappy ones you heard doog). Important things. Limiters Vs. Compressors. A hard limiter over your final mix will make a world of difference, ...

Does anyone here NOT use a click track when recording by yourself? For some reason, they always throw me off when I'm recording something I wrote without one. If only audacity had a metronome instead... recording on time is very important... If you are going for that modern, competitive sound I gue...

Post your best tricks and secrets, or just how you go about recording.

GO!

Refrigerator magnets.

I think the point is if you can make it sound good on them, it will likely sound good almost everywhere. Having flattering speakers to mix on is a stupid idea. Yes that is true. But I'm just saying, if you want to like yourself and your music while recording. Don't use NS-10s. But yeah, they are re...

For anybody who cares, if you ever want to like hearing *sound* or music again. Don't buy yamaha NS-10's. It's like looking at a fat girl naked, if your fat girl is your song. Nothing will sound good until it's professionally mixed and mastered, at least through those speakers. I'm uncapable and une...

Yes, drum tuning sucks.. Resonant heads.... you tune those to the lowest note they'll resonate. It's important to get the heads on evenly around the rim. But once you have them tightened up, you don't have to follow a tuning pattern when making fine adjustments. Some people stretch the heads out on ...

BTW, what is your recording setup?

aye, I'm on another laptop now, but I can really hear the snare better now. Whilest the snare sound is neat, and has it's own little flavor. and I respect the pavementness of it. I do offer an alternate method than your very loose snared, thwack sound. Use a good single ply head. Remo ambassador's I...

Im listening on a laptop, so I can't really pass judgement at the moment. When I get home I'll listen. But the tuning on the drums might need a tad bit of work. The snare soudns thwacky as doog said. Minimalistic approaches rock. BTW, not sure how you setup that overhead, but you might want to try p...

Lower output pups > Higher output pups


I didn't read the thread, but thats my input.

Actually a car is an ideal space, acoustically, for listening to music, so I don't see why recording vocals in a car would be a bad idea. Good isolation. and no matter how dead the room is, it won't ruin a close mic'd voice. In fact a dead room is the preferred space for a lot of vocal recording. IE...

M-audio tech support sucks...

You could call up sweetwater for tech support.
