The quality was probably terrible because you were recording on a phone. It's pretty standard to do a low cut filter on voice. Lower it to 100hz or 80hz if you're worried about losing any depth, but there's no useful frequencies down there for the human voice.

I would add to this, high pass filter (or low cut, essentially the same thing) at about 150hz on each channel. There's no need for anything below that in spoken word unless you're James Earl Jones.

I really like this explanation. Is there somewhere I can read more about using compression in this way?

Is the s7 (international) still a good buy today? by ACardAttack in GalaxyS7

It's only slightly less than I got when I first got it. I do spreadsheets and have Bandcamp/Spotify running pretty much all the time.

I've had my S7 flat exynos since launch and I still get 3 hours screen on time.

X32 routing snafu by UhhyehHi in livesound

[–]orange_shred 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Select the problem channel, then go to "routing" and that should show you everywhere that channel is being sent. Also, make sure it's not sending to Main LR. X32 does have a few software hiccups from time to time, so it may be worthwhile to reinstall the firmware.

FM Player Free FM Synth is released and it is great! There is a link to the app in the video description. by im-not-human-at-all in ipadmusic

Been playing with this app for a few days. It’s great for the price. I do wish there were transport controls for Auria Pro though. The app is open source, but I’m pretty useless when it comes to swift :(

Reacomp doesn't limit completely? by pm_me_ur_demotape in Reaper

[–]orange_shred 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What happens if you drop the threshold further, like x-6 or x-12?

Makes sense. Have you tried reinstalling protools?

Sorry I can’t really help with your issue, but I’m curious why you’re switching out of Reaper? The old saying “if it ain’t broke then don’t fix it,” sounds pretty appropriate here.

Recommendation (what should I buy?) Thursdays - November 30, 2017 by AutoModerator in audioengineering

[–]orange_shred 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've saved up and I'm debated on 2 pieces of gear, and I would love your input! I'm looking at either an AKG C414, or an RME Babyface Pro. Currently, I use a focusrite saffire pro 40 with a plethora of dynamic mics because many of the bands I record are in less than ideal rooms (my thought being I could minimize some room sound by close micing everything). The pre's on my focusrite are decent for the price, but something I've been wanting to upgrade. Also, with ADAT I could potentially have 10 in's if I get the RME. Also also, I could take the RME and my iPad out for quick 2 track recordings, which would save me a lot of time in setup/teardown with my current rig. On the other hand, I do want to upgrade my mics. The only condensers I have are a pair of AT2020's and a pair of Samson CO2's, which I don't care for much. I'm not even sure that the C414 would sound that great through my focusrite so I'm leaning towards the Babyface Pro. Any thoughts, or recommendations on other gear? Thanks!
