Hi Koz,

Oooops! Remembered something I forgot to add to my other message. Are there any not-so-hugely-expensive, but still decent, headphones you can recommend that I get? I'm just using some that came with my Walkman years ago. Would really appreciate your recommendation. Thanks a bunch!

Hi Koz! Hey, hope you are doing well. I know I've been offline for a few days, but I was busy building my little "recording studio". :-) It seems to be just perfect! The sound blankets I purchased from U.S. Cargo Control seem to be doing their job. I no longer have noise floor issues -- unless the n...

Hi Koz! As always, thanks for your feedback. Firstly, glad to hear you missed the ash! Secondly, I have to agree with you on the runway light thing -- and the pic was amazing. Good thing people can't throw stuff out the plane window at that location . . . and better yet, hope they never "dump" their...

Good morning Koz, Hey, hope you are doing well today and thanks for your last post and info. I'm a pretty visual person, so I can picture you wandering through the fabric store. :-) That was still an amazing shot of how close the planes come in over where you were eating! I tried some new things yes...

Good morning Koz, Thanks so much for the info and pics you included in your previous post about the microphones, mixers, etc. Sounds like you've maybe been in the "recording" business for a while and have accumulated some nice toys. And OMG! on the plane thing!!! That HAS to be incredibly loud!! I'm...

Hi Koz, Afraid that was the answer. I had seen the "acceptable" things that ACX mentioned in the "Mastering" video I watched (what you posted in your last reply). Again, though, I read so many places where people apparently think nothing of using multiple effect filters. Like Trebo replying about ha...

Hi Koz, Understand. Thanks so much for the added details and recommendations. I also understand the need to have the raw recordings as close to "accepted" as possible. Since the last time I wrote you, I back my gain down a bit on my Focusrite box. That appears to have solved both my noise floor erro...

Hi Koz, Me again. :-) Well, maybe the moon and stars just weren't lining up right for me to get a good recording today. Actually, I became a bit discouraged and here's why: 1) When I record "room silence" -- all is well -- no Noise Floor issues. But, several times when I recorded, the Noise Floor wa...

Hi Koz, Thanks again for your input. :-) I have not had a chance to seriously try out my new setup yet -- I changed several things to hopefully make my recording space more comfortable and to increase consistency in my recording results. Guess I trying to be optimistic that I may actually get my foo...

Hi Koz, Thanks so much for sharing all the information and a giggle or two. :-) I adjusted my mic yesterday and had good success -- even removed my pop filter. But I'm going to adjust it again with the additional details/clarification you've given me. I'm also going to beef up some more soundproofin...
