  1. strongly suggest cheap condenser ( https://www.storedj.com.au/products/BEH-C-1 ) spare money can be spent on acoustic treatment of the room.
  2. i was under the impression pop filters cancelled out harsh 'p' and 's' sounds. not sure if indirect into mic makes a huge diff? or a small enough diff that can be fixed in DAW? pop filter will make your recordings about a million times easier, trying to avoid the 'pops' by going the indirect route completely fucks performances, if you are on a budget just make a ghetto pop filter out of some thin fabric (stockings work perfect) and a wire coathanger: you want a 'dry' room, so you will want to cover as many hard surfaces as humanly possible to prevent reverb. Grab the Behringer C1 if you can find one, and with any spare money start playing with room acoustics. Also might be worth noting that if you will be getting a condenser mic that you will need phantom power switched ON on the audio interface
  3. if it's just vox you are after, the environment is just as important (if not more) as the microphone, so it might be worth investigating that avenue also. I'd suggest spending a little bit more than $150, see if you can get a Shure KSM27 for cheap as possible. If you absolutely MUST stay in that price range, a behringer C1 would do the job, or even an m-audio Nova. One thing you will 100% want to either invest in or make yourself is a pop filter, they go from like $15 to $100, but you can make a cheap dodgy (but effective) one with some stockings and an old wire coathanger
  4. Can you be a bit more specific in what you mean by studio mic? like what exactly will you be recording?
  5. ask beethoven

    holy, thought I posted a reply, apparently not.. I like to pull samples from all sorts of sources, that particular tune was relatively sample light, with 90% of the samples being drum samples.... A few of them are from dusty old funk/jazz records etc, that snare line however is actually from a nu tone sample pack of all things.. download that drum break here (no efx)
  7. alrighty, gonna go live with some hiphop things
  8. achaly have your code open on one screen
  9. 3 screens, all different models, most annoying thing ever and dat beauty shot

    GATE ALL THE SNARE THINGS!!! no, but seriously, once you have placed all your snares as you like, gate the absolute fuck out of them. I have a threshold of -10.5db, a hold of 3.19ms and a release of 5.08ms with no floor and a 0ms lookahead on that perticular snare line, but the threshold can be altered to taste.. the other way of doing it, is by cutting your snare samples RIGHT down so that they have no tail at all in them, you will be cutting up to 90% of the sample off to get that clicky 'nutty' sound
  11. New tune, all the crisp snares and deep bassline things https://soundcloud.com/iamduz/blackstreet-no-diggety-duz-rmx
  12. Need to dust off mine and get some glam shots in.... in the mean time from when I first put the light mods & glow paint on
  13. i could only find this twitter seems legit https://twitter.com/oficailDaftpunk
  14. full album leaked.. http://daftpunk.tk/
  15. sweet jesus I just lms so hard at that
  16. fuck, pretty jelly right now
  17. nah, I tried to get her to seperate them into genre's, but 'compromised' in keeping sampling records(left) seperate from the rest(right)...
  18. cleaned my room, got some snaps before I made it messy again vinyl alphabetized by my mrs last weekend
  19. I used to do a similar sort of thing out in Leederville (Oxy and YSM seen the spot) a few years ago with some churchy group, was a good time, made some good friends through it. I would definitely fire them an email WRX, even just to find out about the time/days.. I know oxy is probably a bit busy, but if you can tolerate a baled pulling your 1200 apart infront of you, you can tolerate a few kids Might even apply myself....
  20. listened
  21. 25th would be the next date to pick, Oxy
  22. can't do 28th either
  23. oh well the 4th would probably be preferable, however any Sunday is OK for me I guess..
