Re: mic for low frequencies

<<<can i get that in cardioid or figure 8?>>> Oh you can get a lot crazier than that. Sound systems that respond down to zero are the stuff of audio legend. The famous Crown DC-300 was a horse of an amplifier that would amplify DC. It was designed to run the motors of a shake table in scientific exp...

Re: recording live streaming

<<<any suggestions on how to bust the recorded volume of my recording.>>>

I'm not sure what that means. You're recording an internet radio show and you want to make it louder?

Re: Recording problems

Three problems right away. -- You should probably be using Audacity 1.3. I would expect Audacity 1.2 to have problems with Win7. Audacity 1.3 has very much better tools than 1.2 and is much more stable (in spite of what the labels say). -- Mic-In on the laptop is mono and expecting a really tiny, de...

Re: Changing pitch of voice/vocal but NOT background music

You can start out with the idea that you can't do this at all. Straight separation of one instrument (or a voice) from a performance isn't done and normal pitch change will not go male/female. You might be able to use the vocal isolation software some people offer. Voice Removal or Isolation --Voice...

Re: mic for low frequencies

Re: mic for low frequencies

Electret Condenser. No, those won't do that. You need a pressure transducer -- see: Whomper above. Something whose grandmother was an electronic postage scale or a meat scale, not a performance microphone. Those are seriously difficult to use. You can't move one at all because any motion through the...

Re: Whine on USB mixer only when Aud is monitoring

Sorry. I missed a step. That's a quote from your mixer instruction book -- on-line version. [Booming kettle drum sound] They claim a condition whereby the computer will send sound back to your headphones. They're clear about that. So that's the sound pathway you're probably hearing and you may need ...

<<<It is going to be a 4-5 hour event. >>>

How are you recording that on a one-hour camcorder?

Re: Whine on USB mixer only when Aud is monitoring

I may know what the mystery link between Audacity and the mixer is. This is a reading from the web site...

You can also monitor back from your computer through the same USB connection.

How do your instructions say to do that?
