Hey all,
So I have been working on my mixes for years, and Ive gotten to where Im happy with everything, except any instrument/vocals recorded with a condenser .
I live in an apartment, and its set up normally, the room I record in has air conditioning vents, carpet floors, etc.
and no matter WHAT I do, the room reflections are so horrible I cant record vocals of any kind. Ive tried foam on the walls, mic shields, all sorts of DIY solutions online, even built a foam cage around it, and still couldnt get a isolated/professional sound.
the only thing Ive seen work is drape a VERY thick blanket over myself and the mic entirely.
Do you guys have any suggestions? I dont feel like I should have to sing/play acoustic with a blanket over everyone involved. There has to be a way to isolate the microphone and not pick up every echo in the room.
