Re: Help with RMS and noise floor

I'm assuming that noise at 9 seconds is you dropping something on the table. Hopefully.

Re: Help with RMS and noise floor

Pearl Harbor Correction Do this to the clip to make sure we get the same results. You will need to install Steve's special voice filter into the Equalization tool. Your microphone does something really wacky down in the earthquake tones and Steve takes care of it nicely. Select the whole clip by cl...

Re: Help with RMS and noise floor

Here is the corrected clip. As near as I can tell, it's ACX Compliant and without a whole lot of work. You need to tell us how you're shooting this when you get done. I'm making the recipe.

A little salt, a little pepper...

Re: Help with RMS and noise floor

I think the Pearl Harbor clip is close enough. The -6 recording thing is a worthy goal not a law. Nobody is going to come out with a stick and hit you if you go a little over. DO NOT go all the way up to 0. We picked -6 as a good compromise between overload (too high), noise (too low) and theatrical...

If the Recording Latency is just a little off, measure the new difference and correct the Latency value again.

Re: Uneducated No0b can't figure it out

The only reason there are Apple Earbuds in those pictures is they're pretty, small and I had them. They suck for mixing. You should certainly be using much higher quality headphones. But they do work. I did the overdubbing evaluations on those things. You'll do final mixing on large speakers. 1. Cre...

Re: Uneducated No0b can't figure it out

Sorry. My fault. I didn't step through your whole itemized list. I will do so. I had to be on opposite sides of the city today and in LA, that means pack a lunch. And Dinner. The up side is they don't require a passport any more.

Re: Uneducated No0b can't figure it out

I simply want to hear (in real time) and sing along (while monitoring in real time) while recording and have the ability to listen to the combined tracks when I am done. From there, I want to repeat the process adding backing vocals. Yes. That's totally what the overdubbing process does. The tutori...

Re: Uneducated No0b can't figure it out

Ummmm. No. The playback has to be already in Audacity. The UCA202 handles everything. No audio cables except the mixer to the UCA202. This is the whole setup. http://www.kozco.com/tech/audacity/pix/peaveyUCA202Lenovo-650.jpg You can't use wild playback like from YouTube or a Music CD. What you can d...
