    Any good FREE Audiounit de-esser plugins?

    Actually, ANY good vocal effects (Compression, reverb, de-essing,) would be great! I'm getting my feet wet with vocal mixing. It has to be AU format, unfortunately I am working on a mac. Thanks!

    So how many thrashers do we have here?

    Big 6 (Big 4, testament + exodus), Kreator, Destruction, plus some new-wave thrash like Municipal Waste, Havok, Warbringer, Skull fist. Thrash is where it's at bro! In my humble opinion, metal guitar and drums are starting to sound a tad over-produced with all the eq-ing, compression, and...

    Rate my first mix, and criticize me!!

    Okay, so I lied. It's not my FIRST mix. It's my first mix that doesn't sound like absolute garbage. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bVcRPVvd44Q#t=29 DAW: The crappy (but free) Garageband coming stock on Macs Quad tracked guitars (100% R/L, then 70% R/L) with the good old LePou...

    Guitar Impulses: how many at once?

    That is very good advice! I like that a lot. That seems to be my problem: there is always an artificial sounding "gap" on my guitar tracks. You can do that in lecab too!

    Guitar Impulses: how many at once?

    I'm a newbie when it comes to mixing, but I am on my merry way. I've got a decent drum and bass guitar sound, now I'm onto the electric guitars. So my question is, how many amp sims should I use on a single guitar track? I'm using the good ol' LePou plugins and cab, paired with the TSE...

    Any drum machine mixing tutorials out there?

    Hey guys, so I've finally got a decent guitar tone down, but then next thing that is KILLING the mix is the drum machine. I can EQ it to sit well in the mix, but it always ends up sounding fake and plastic-y.

    Computers good for recording?

    As of now, I am using the family Mac for all my recording. They don't appreciate all the stuff I've downloaded and hogging the computer all the time. So I'm thinking of getting my own CPU. It'd pretty much have to be a laptop. My house is already crammed big time with all my musician...

    Guitar "hiss" in my DAW

    Hey guys, I have this horrible problem. My guitar has a low hiss whenever I try and use any mid to high gain amp simulation. I'm going direct input on my interface and connected to my Mac via usb. I took off the cover to the wiring and everything is connected firmly, and I tightened any loose...
