Pocket Mic

Pocket Mic
I want to start a recording studio in my brick shed. What do I need?

Ive asked this question before but no Response; many. Essentially, is something for fun, recording with my band and maybe make a little pocket money. I know Ill probably end up not making much money outside it, but id like to try. Things I have been recommended for purchase are: Microphone: Shure SM57 microphone cables: At least 10 meters microphone stand: preamplifier resistant boom stand: Behringer MIC200 Tube Ultragin Mixer: Behringer XENYX 802 Mixer Mixing Studio 1024 or Desktop Software: Cubase 4 Pop Filter Studio Headphones: Behringer Hps 3000 acoustic foam soundproof room Is there anything else I need or do you recommend different types of equipment. I have a powerful computer that isn't a problem. Also some tips are cool!

As mentioned before it really depends on how far you would like to take this. A soundboard is probably the first line business. Again, depending on the amount you want to record will depend on how many channels you need. Basically a channel for the microphone and instrument. I use a Mackie 20 channel and serves almost all the needs I had also comes with sound effects in the plate can be fun to play with (reverb, phaser, etc.) (4 vocals, electric guitar, acoustic guitar, bass, keyboard, saxophone, sound effects loops (ipod), and six channels for the drums (kick, snare, tombs, the tomb of soil, R + symbols L – side of all this requires more buses and more standing.) Microphones: SM57 is a good microphone for instruments, but for the voice recording you want to use the SM58 has a fuller richer sound. Guitars: two routes you can take here. The idea is to get the sound in sound card so you can control the levels of all its instruments in the recording. Using a guitar AMP is a great way to go. A good tube amp (I would go with a tube amp – great sound in some of the older quality amps above) will be very expensive (also want to make sure that the amplifier has an output line so you can plug the sound card if it does then you have the amplifier and microphone that can be difficult with feedback and noise bleed through other instruments. A cheaper and easier you can go to start is with a Direct Input box (box direct injection). For this all you need is a picture of a 1 / 4 "instrument cable and an XLR cable (mic cable). Keyboards: You will need DI box to connect the sound card of all these cables require XLR and 1 / 4 "instrument cables. Battery: Mic-ing can be a little complicated. You need at least three microphones. You definitely want to mic the kick and the other two sets as right and left. (Somewhere in the middle of the sound – so you can take the symbols, tombs, trap, etc on each side). The best microphone is a battery with a microphone and battery clamps. This microphone allows each grave and the symbol that gives you greater control over what the final product sounds like the recording, but more microphones cables, more channels on the board. In addition, the battery can be one of the greatest challenges in terms of volume and bleed through the microphones in their vowels. You have to find a way to absorb or isolate them. Plexiglass drum shields work can be, but much better if you can encapsulate completely the battery and monitor the sound through your micros battery. I guess you are going to use the computer to record what the main exit of the sound card go to the computer. If your musicians need to hear each other, require some form of monitoring system. (This will require additional wiring.) For recording I would recommend an ear monitor (headphones) instead a traditional wedge (basically a speaker at the plant said the musician.) due to the sound level can be built very quickly leading to problems feedback in small spaces recording. The name of the game here is to keep the volume as possible. The stronger it gets more difficult is to control the microphone volume levels, the sound bleed through, and echoes. That said, you have to do something about the control of echoes in the room. Brick is a very surface hard, the sound is going to jump out of what someone said earlier in this post is a good route foam to dampen this. I even heavy use thick curtains around all the walls. If you have any questions along the way do not hesitate to hit me in my email, but I recommend making good friends with your local music store. (Not like Circuit City Radio Shack or somewhere that specializes in concert and recording audio.) I hope this helps.
