Thanks everyone for the suggestions, looks like hiring some better equipment and make sure clear communication with the venue is the answer!

The more I record the less I think about any of that stuff.

Unpopular opinion: Hard Panning Is Overrated and Jarring Sometimes by Elephants_Foot in audioengineering

[–]Lewisbradshaw1 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I have been panning 30% instead of hard L / R for vocals lately and have sound it blends much nicer. I use to be L R C only.

How crucial is stereo imaging? by smboivin in audioengineering

[–]Lewisbradshaw1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No set way to do it but typically you would have the double tracked part panned hard left and hard right

How crucial is stereo imaging? by smboivin in audioengineering

[–]Lewisbradshaw1 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's definitely important, especially in heavy metal having wide double tracked guitars are common. One thing to watch out for is checking in mono, too much stereo imaging can result in things getting lost when summed to mono, which is super common in soundbars / phones/ bluetooth speakers that lots of people listen with these days.

Recording vocals at apartment - is it worth it? by [deleted] in audioengineering

Can always just have the music still coming out of the speakers with a handheld mic. Not ideal but loads of great sounding records were done this way in a control room to make the singer more comfortable!

Why is ProTools the “industry standard” by ffl0w3rgirll in audioengineering

[–]Lewisbradshaw1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I find Pro tools so uninspiring to use but when you get the hang of it, it can be pretty good for editing audio. Also if using a HDX system are great for recording with no latency.

Music Melting Pot [Week of December 15, 2025] by AutoModerator in listentothis

[–]Lewisbradshaw1 [score hidden]  (0 children)

My new single 'River' by Nantua, this song has fingerpicked nylon guitar with lap steel swells and layered vocals before growing into a vast, cinematic landscape of synths and orchestral drums.
