    August 24-28, 2005 - Comments/Questions

    Shit caught me off guard, I was out of town away from my computer when the new date was announced, I knew it was towards the end of the month but didn't have all my stuff together, all in all I had plenty of time to prepare I just procrastinated (bad habit!!!!). I sure wanted to put it on this...

    16 bit or 24 bit?

    Surely record at 24 bits or higher depending on your preference and what your working with, I record and track at 24 bits/88,200khz. Dither down to 16bits 44.1 when going to CD either using POW-R algorithm or Alesis Masterlink or whatever it is you got available. This is a complex subject it can...

    mastering question?

    Check out the mixing engineers handbook by Bobby Owsinski The perfect mix won't require a lot of mastering if any Focus more on getting a very very good mix, don't worry about mastering unless it's a critical demo or your being played on the radio. Don't confuse adding compression and...

    Treating the rhymes

    sometimes hearing the breathing is a good thing it shows a natural feel to the song. If you edit out every breath he takes that could make it sound too electronic too processed. Best thing to do is first figure out what type of sound you want to get out of the vocals. Rough and gritty or smooth...

    wich preamp

    The preamp choice also depends on the type of sound you want to get, different preamps give different types of sound. The Neve stuff is very analogish and big, there are other sound qualities that you might be interested in. Just so you know there isn't one particular model that is necessarily...

    Is it worth it?

    Get as many outputs as you can, you'll need that for mixdowns if your really serious with the MP. I don't use the MP but a friend of mine does and it just wouldn't be the same without those 8's. Think about mixing down certain sounds all on one dedicated tracks and being able to EQ and tweak...

    Waves Plug-ins

    I can tell you downloaded them illegally, why the hell would you have the gold, master, diamond and master bundles. Dude the diamond bundle includes the entire suite just about. Yeah sure Waves has some great plugins but through my journeys I've found some plugins even better or equal to...

    Send Music To Get A Pro Mix And Masterering

    Nuendo has a format that can be read by Pro Tools so you should be good to go. One thing about sending your material to be mixed AND mastered, that will get very expensive if you are also needing mixing done, and that can take an awful long time unless your tracks are near perfectly mixed...

    Lets talk about drums

    My 2cent Study from the Masters (real acoustic drummers) and notice how they change up the drums, notice how they break shit up and add variety. Study drums that were recorded very well, remember drums are probably one of the hardest instruments to record. Make sure the drums are...

    ? for anybody in the DC area...

    I corresponded with Titanium a few months back with the guy Greg. It seems pretty legit especially if Big D can vouch for them. Shoot him an email class if your interested, me I procrastinated and never sent them a CD. I felt my shit wasn't ready yet, I'm in no hurry I love making music whether...

    Is Game the most overated rapper in Hip Hop?

    From what I see from Game he has a lot of tough talk which always generates controversy in Hip-Hop, which could sell records. They might try to make him out be be another Tupac for the west coast but minus a lot of the rhyme skills Tupac had (and a lot of other things). I'm not at all saying...

    some of the best drums ive ever heard(DRE)

    I agree about the eq on those drums Dre's a perfectionist so they might have spent two weeks on just gettings the drums sounding just right. Since the track doesn't have a whole lot going on he made sure the drums sounded very big, wide open to compensate for the lack of other instruments and...

    Audio Technica ATH-M30 Headphones are they worth $100.00 ??

    one of the major differences between the more expensive headphones and the low cost are the frequency ranges they pick up. If your using headphones for critical listening on your mixes you need to pickup a pair of cans that pickup a wide range, otherwise your not going to hear everything in your...
