Looking for direction on over all mixing; volume.

admin — Mon, 10 May 2010 04:50:48 +0000

So i’ve searched and seen tons of questiosn regarding volume levels, compression levels, etc, when mixing beats. I’ve been doing this for about 8 years and I still am never satified w/ the volume I get out of my completed production. It seems when I mix low, and try to stay under the red or 0, the beat is way to quite and lacks volume when compared to other beats out there, and when I “attempt” to compress and/or bring the volume up, my beats still don’t seem to hit and/or seem as loud compared to others.

Akai GX-4000d reel to reel, problem!

Hi, I just got this Reel to reel tape recorder, it seems to work well exept I can’t find a mic that works with it. I know the impedance is 600 ohms so I tried several mics with that spec, with an on and off button though so maybe not dynamic as it should be, it doesn’t work, I mean if I puff or shout the Vu meters reacts but badly with a scratchy low sound. I read on the manuel that the mic should be 0,25mv wich is actually hard to find, I didn’t so far

Unfortunately I do all my tracking in a townhouse basement. Needeless to say i’m unable to open up the volume as much as i’d like. Through trial and error i’ve been able to get some decent results

Hi I am using a computer software package called printfinale to compose music on midi files. Suddenly I’ve lost the sound when playing these midi files
