    Anybody running a SYN1 for high gain desktop recording? Would you recommend a SLO or Uberschall module?

    I am really close to pulling the trigger on one these units. I was looking into a high gain tube option for playing and recording at home. I have a mark V25 that I use a lot and combine with digital stuff in the box but was curious about a thicker sounding, more saturated option. Doing some...

    Help me with computers

    Hello handsome refined intellectuals, I had good luck with my last thread getting information so figured I'd ask you guys about computers for music production. I did search other posts but still it helps me to make my own for clarity. So apparently I bought the worst laptop in the world from a...

    Eleven Rack Opinions

    I’ve seen a few ElevenRacks floating around second hand lately, for roughly 1/4 what it would cost to step up to a helix stomp. If memory serves, I recall alot of positive opinions on these when released but haven’t heard much about them since the Fractal/Kemper/Helix domination of the digital...

    Differences between SSL / Neve consoles?

    Would love to hear a deeper insight on the differences between these 2 console's sound, and what makes them unique to mix on. Are the plugin versions of these consoles any good? Some of my favorite records have been mixed on either one, so, just wondering. Thanks!

    Hi sevenstring, long time lurker here! I decided to start offering music production related services over on fiverr. As of right now it's just drum programming but will later offer reamping services as well. I'm mainly a guitar player really heavy into modern prog metal and been programming...

    What else will I need for a home recording set up?

    Context: I've decided that my musical/artistic goal for 2023 is to write, record, and release a solo album. If I had to put genre tags on it I'd say it spans all genres of "extreme" music, but to be specific I mostly gravitate towards the doom, drone, sludge, grind, early industrial, no wave...

    Is it me or does REAPER (DAW) sound muddy/congested/crammed/flat?

    I have been using reaper for about 2 years, chasing tones and mixing over and over. I can't seem to get it to sound crisp/clear without sounding harsh. But the biggest battle is not sounding congested and muddy. I have tried EQing, panning, stereo wideners, compression, etc etc. It just somehow...

    Best plugin for DOOM/Argent/Cyber Djent? (8 string tones)

    Extremely curious to know if anyone has dabbled in the Mick Gordon DOOM style genre, and if they know of a good amp sim that isn't too grindy/fuzzy/hissy. I've tried dropping the gain on my amp sim (Archetype Petrucci), I've tried different IRs and speaker/mic positions. I just can't seem to get...

    What constitutes a great metal recording tone?

    I recently started exploring the Lasse Lammert presets for Axe FX and noticed his tones are incredibly dry and thick. Generally I have been dialing in and playing with tones that felt way more wet and spongy in comparison, with way more air and sustain. I am having trouble playing convincingly...

    Electric Guitar Recording sound muffled but playback is fine.

    Hi! I just got my first electric guitar and immediately tried recording on my computer. The recording sounded muffled but the playback is really clean and good. I only have an Amp Simulator on my rack effect and nothing more. I'm recording directly onto my Audio Interface and not using any...

    Help w/ Neural DSP - No Output

    Hey everyone, I've been having some odd issues as of late with Neural DSP. The Standalone apps work just fine. However, for about a week or so now, the Neural plugins (Nolly and Gojira) won't produce sound in my DAW (Reaper). My other plugins work fine. I can see that I am producing a signal...

    Guitar Tracking Tips

    I'm pretty new to recording (I've done a fair amount of home recording but have never worked with a professional) and was wondering what process others use to track guitar. My main goal is to pick up speed through the tracking and editing process. My current approach is to record riff by riff...

    Hey y’all. I been out of the game for a while, long while actually. But in the last year the bug has bitten me hard again and I started jamming around with a few guys and it’s coming together rather nicely. So we’ve booked some studio time to try to capture some of our best ideas. I’ve got a...

    Video Editing Programs

    As part of recording and putting music out there, I bet a bunch of us are using video editing software to make bedroom music videos and lyric videos, etc. The two I've used are free versions on PC (with some limitations) and I would highly recommend one and avoid the other like the plague. I...

    My first demo album

    First of all, the link to the album on soundcloud: https://soundcloud.com/compiler-band/sets/demo-album I would say it is some kind of experimental, alternative, nu, and maybe a very little bit of progressive metal. I wrote these songs over 10 years ago and finally got my depressed ass up...
