Limiting/Compressing vocal input before or after?

I use a Roland Quad Capture for inputs. The Quad has a built in compressor/limiter/gate. I have no issue with setting the input sensitivity for myself as I believe I have good mike technique and once set I do not clip my input. Therefore, all of my compression is done post recording. However, I have..

Dealing with a squeaky/noisy screw in tremolo bar: Plumber's tape

This is ghetto, DIY, cheap arse mofo advice. There are probably fancy froo, costly "solutions" to this issue but this work and costs under a penny. So I don't do a lot of whammy bar work. Never liked the things. I play hard. I bend hard. I generally abuse my instrument. Whammy bars just become a hug..

Double tracking and phase question - Answered ... Thanks!

I record my acoustic guitar a couple times playing the same part, or the same part capo-ed up. I think that's called layering ... right? Sometimes I alter the mic position just to get some different sounds out of the guitar. My question is, can that cause phase problems in the same way using multipl..

Realistic Woodwind and String parts (true legato)

With regard to making midi sound real, one of the things I have been trying to get to is the ability to differentiate between (for instance) a flute moving from one note to the next by maintaining breath and changing fingering (legato) as opposed to tonguing from one note to the next, or the differe..

Using A Limiter To Protect Your Monitors?

Hello Everyone, Today I was playing with a softsynth that got stuck in a feedback loop. I had to immediately shut off my monitors as I felt they were going to blow! I was thinking, should I place a limiter on my master bus (just temporarily while I am tracking, removing before the mix process), jus..

wireless in-the-ear headphones

I have been using some wired shure in ear headphones to record acoustic guitar. It works really well in keeping the click out of the recording (l tend to like the click hot). I am wondering if anyone is using wireless in-the-ears for the same purpose and has any recommendations. I see a lot of bluet..
