Weird gravely noise?

admin — Tue, 11 May 2010 03:37:04 +0000

Last week, I ordered an SM58 to use for vocals and finally got it today (Absolutely love it, by the way). I hooked it up to the mixer my choral director is letting me borrow (A Behringer Eurorack UB802, and I believe it is one of the earlier models of it) and it was working fine for the first few hours of use.

Dampening pads on electric drums

admin — Mon, 10 May 2010 22:52:03 +0000

Just wondering if anyone knew of a good way of silencing the pads on my yamaha dd-55 electric kit? I use it for triggering samples in some stuff, and I wear headphones, but the sound of me whacking the pads with my sticks really carries, and I don’t want to disturb the neighbours! I know for acoustic kits & the rock band drums (or any large size electric kit) you can get silencer pads, but the pads on my yamaha are rather small. Is there any kind of DIY way I could silence them a bit

Does anyone know why a sample would play in windows media player or itunes. But not cubase or fruity loops

Tc Electronic Konnect 6

Using this interface to cut tracks which will probably be mixed later in a full studio ( and mastered by a pro)will I be able to get close to Apogee RME quality with this interface ? No vocals but critical guitar tracks which have a pro tube preamp signal chain etc. and to preserve the warmth etc
