boosting 2-4K, will "cut" through the mix. These are the nasally but still meaty mid frequencies, and the easiest for the human ear to hear. As you go higher you reach the sibilant sounds, picking, and cymbals, which don't need any help cutting through the mix. if you want a bass guitar to...

It is indeed in my home. I have a second setup consisting of two TUBEOPTO 8 channel pre/converters that I use to record drums elsewhere, since I can't be pissin' off the neighbors.

Distortion is fun. Compression is sort of distortion. Distorting things definitely compresses the peaks. When you use Class A preamps, they all pretty much sound the same when you record "clean" The idea is to pad your mic, pad your preamp, and then push the gain to get "Character&quo...

24 bit = a ton more headroom, to keep the "noisefloor" down. a well recorded 16 bit song can sound just as "pro" especially if we are talking about loud rock music. Dynamic recordings, maybe styles like Jazz, will see more benefit because those whispery quiet parts wont be masked...

The 15K (when it was new in the 80's) console I got for $300 on craigslist and everything worked :D The tape machine was a couple hundred, it records four tracks in one direction. A lot of fun to send tracks out of protools onto the tape and back. I got my big monitors for a $100, super flat and cle...

I sound proofed the closet in my apartment for vocals and other things this way. I have overlapping moving blankets so the door cracks ...
