I've posted some things to MuFi which were pretty fun, but are technically suck-tronic. I've been making music for about 20 years, but have never recorded my work in any serious way and don't really know what I'm doing. <br> <br> 1. The Rig: A Shure SM58 to a Eurotrack MX802A mixer to MAGIX audio studio 2005 DeLuxe. I also use a Korg workcenter and various amps and guitars.<br> <br> 2. What's really killing me is mixing the vocals. Guitars and banjo with or without amps seem fine but when I try to lay the vocal tracks it just sucks. <br> <br> I know there is no easy answer to this, but perhaps (even though I've searched alot) an online totorial or something might be helpful. I know there are some gurus out there, I've heard you on MuFi! Thanks in advance. tag:ask.metafilter.com,2006:site.42370 Mon, 17 Jul 2006 19:08:38 -0800 compression mics mixing MuFi music normalization recordingtips snsranch http://ask.metafilter.com/9095/How%2Ddo%2DI%2Dget%2Da%2Dvintage%2Dwireless%2Dsound%2Din%2Da%2Dhome%2Drecording%2Dsetup HomeRecordingFilter. Of course, I'm recording an album at home. I'm already using a Rode NT1A mic, but I want to get the effect of a vocal coming through and old radio. I understand that I can fiddle with the EQ controls in CoolEdit (I mean, Adobe Audition...) and emulate the desired effect, but does anyone have any more tips to get the vintage wireless sound? While I'm at it - does anyone have any home recording tips in general? tag:ask.metafilter.com,2004:site.9095 Sun, 01 Aug 2004 17:57:54 -0800 homerecording music recording recordingtips soundquality vintage armoured-ant
