    Epic Joey Cleans

    WinterSnow, as nice as it was to hear your your opinion, I didn't ask for it :p Jesus, you guys are starting to remind me of the peeps back on Ultimate-Guitar! I've been lurking these forums for a while, never seen that kind of reaction before to a thread. Wowwwww. I'm thinking I SHOULD just get...

    Epic Joey Cleans

    Yeah, I just realised that figure of speech. Shame he typed it in such a way that makes it difficult to understand without reading a few times through. There's this thing called proper punctuation which is needed when trying to use figures of speech like that. Anyway, I over-reacted, but I'm...

    Epic Joey Cleans

    Wow, what a well-articulated, inspirational and mature post :rolleyes: Oh, and it's spelt "whiny". Next of all, what's wrong with screaming? As for not having gone through puberty, I'm pretty sure you couldn't scream like that to save your life, takes a lot more skill than you'd like to think...

    Epic Joey Cleans

    I've noticed one thing with Sturgis' mixes, whenever there's clean singing, it really just shouts "EPIC" to me. I don't know why, but there's something about them. How does he go about getting this? I know you need to get the best possible performance out of the singer, but it sounds much more...

    Most Pro sounding mix you've achieved...

    That's an insanely good cover from all aspects, I genuinely confused it for the original. Hats off to you good sir.

    Advice needed - recording acoustic guitar with limited equipment!

    Grab a couple of nice condensors from the drum mic kit, preferably the overheads, though the snare mic and tom mics should be fine as well. Place one in front of the sound hole about 10cm away, and one in front of the 12th fret about the same distance away. Mess with some eq-ing and possibly...

    without pro equipment! I'd post a link myself, but I don't have any, haha. Show us your best work with the cheapest things you have lying around! It's about expertise before tools anyway, right?

    No vocal booth, reflections suck!

    I just realised, I have a few mattresses at my disposal. Would making a vocal both sized...booth out of mattresses stood up to make a small...booth (:P) work in getting a decent sound? or would that create different kinds of reflections?

    No vocal booth, reflections suck!

    How would you guys recommend recording vocals and avoiding reflections? Last time I recorded the vox in a shower (Terrible fucking idea, I realised when I tried mixing the vocals in, haha). So far I've asked a few friends who work in studios and I've been told to either suspend a duvet over my...

    TSS, 7170, Kefir, how do put noise gate?

    I always get a lot of that hissy noise when the guitars aren't playing anything. I'm recording with my Yamaha Audiogram interface with the meters barely hitting -6db when I record. Where in the chain would you recommend putting the noise gate? It sounds really bad when put at the end, so I can't...
