i know Im randomly asking but does anyone know of a way to log back into an Instagram account?? I somehow lost the password. I love any tricks you can give me.
@Trent Crosby I really appreciate your reply. I found the site thru google and im in the hacking process now. Looks like it's gonna take a while so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
It's amazing to hear how well this sounds with just one microphone and a free DAW. It really shows that nowadays, there are no excuses to get your creativity out there.
Almost every comment here: "great video but the religiousness is annoying" Cmon guys. He just does what he loves and we are judging him for his beliefs rather than appreciating the help he's given us by teaching how to record our own songs and do what we love.
A perfect example of "it's not about having the best, it's about knowing how to use what you have." This is awesome, Graham. A HUGE inspiration to us all!
GREAT video, its awesome how you show you can actually record a whole song with acceptable quality with just around 200 dollars, and your computer, its realy unbelievable, only 200 dollars dude, and it sounds just fine, but seriously, sounds fine, any band would love to have that simple recording. Then what if you spent 400 dollars? 800 dollars? 2000 dollars? Well spent.
you're right, but recording for drummers is always a pain in the ass... they need to be metronome precise, 100%, all the time. they're slave of the click in the earphones. try to pley relaxed if you have a machine precise click in the ears forcing you to be a machine not a human ;-)
I love this song! It sounds so amazing, fresh, new, clean. true, the drums sounds roomy and the snare isn't loud enough but with only one mic! Your a master at this stuff! This is genuine christian rock! Thanks for doing this.
When I saw your first video yesterday (The 5 things you need for a home studio) I thought to myself: "He must be a born again christian, he speaks like one". After watching this video, I know it. I'm a christian singer songwriter from Mexico, starting to build my home studio and I want you to know that your videos are not only very practical but very inspiring too. Awesome life advice on the ones with the 1st rule of home recording. God bless you a lot
Great video as always. I admire your efforts to convince people that they should focus more on music and on using what they already have as best as they can, congratulations
Great channel. I was looking around RUclips for something like this to help out a friend who's going to be recording his Praise & Worship songs from home soon which I'll be playing drums for, and found you. I didn't even think you were a Christian until I heard this song. Praise Jesus, what a blessing, keep doing what you're doing for His glory.
Took me over half the song to realize he was singing about Jesus, I was so busy looking at the mic positioning I wasn't really paying attention to the lyrics lol
Worship music isn't for me, but I can certainly appreciate your videos. Thanks Graham for posting and showing how easy it can be to record and for your tutorials.
My goodness you are a talented man. This is so sick! Love the song as well. I was absolutely astonished by how well one mic could pick up that entire kit so well. I would love to have seen a more in-depth look on how you mixed it
Dude, that was seriously the coolest thing I've ever seen. In one shot, you showed your serious talent for recording, music, and your faith. Bravo kind sir. I've got your bandcamp saved in my favorites.
This video came out right around the time I started recording my own material. I come back here every once in a while and I've shown it to many of my musician friends. Every now and then, I need to be reminded that there's value in keeping things simple.
It's great to hear these drums in with an entire mix. Many of the minimum drum micing turotials on the tube show how to to set up the mics, but not the recorded sound mixed in with other instruments. Excellent!
Good job fellas. I don't care whether graham sings about jesus, buddha, allah, or plugs a hand weaving website, i'll leave that aside and take the gr8 info he delivers around recording. Love it!
Graham you are simply outstanding teacher. I have learnt so much from your chanel and started getting result applying your technics though my DAW is cubase.
Simply put, if watchers don't like the theme of the music, they can go elsewhere for recording tutorials. I firmly believe that if Graham wants to demonstrate his production chops using Christian music that is his right. The whole purpose of viewers coming together to watch these videos is because we love and have a passion for recording music. It does not matter if we are into Jazz, rock, pop, heavy metal or whether we are Jews or gentiles, music is music. Once again, great video Graham!!
u just saved me a whole lot of money.i used to play the drums yrs ago but been using Addictive Drums program.i wanted to try playin drums over my music again as aproject.how to mic it up was always aproblem..u got a great sound.well done and thank you
I agree, that was fantastic as well as encouraging! I'd love to see more challenge videos with the result being an original or cover. It could be a cool little series!
Hi graham. Love this vid. This is very simular to the gear im using.. I dont have space for a drum kit so I use a sequencer, but apart from that its the same. Its encouraging to see whats possible with this kind of gear. Thank you for the inspiration
There is a "producer secret weapon" called a PZM, but specifically, the Radioshack discontinued PZM. While everyone is saying to buy expensive ribbon mics and all that shit, a very smart friend and producer said "buy this $15 Radioshack mic" off eBay. We have used that mic more than any other. From tracking each instrument to all live, the cheap discontinued PZM(Radioshack brand) has allowed us to easily plug in, record a verse and chorus, then send off to someone we're working with, as well as, make full demos and b-sides to release. It is an amazing microphone. HIGHLY recommended for "one-mic recordings". People, have started to catch on to this "secret weapon" of a mic and the price on eBay has been as high as $70-$125, since earlier this year.
I'll quote myself: "The theme of the music splits people pretty hard in many camps..." means that the theme of the music is something that will split people in many camps of preference very easily and harshly. Thus for an educational video, one would do well to choose something else so that people will focus to the lesson and not the theme of the music itself. If he wants to choose religiously themed music, it's he's choice, but there's a whole package that comes with it. That's all there is.

GREAT video. I love the way it empowers us, the short budget guys.
Graham, stay true. Stay blessed. Am I religious, no. Do I believe in God, yes. And I pray to him every night. You are beyond kind for sharing your knowledge with people. I've watched numerous videos that you've created and they've helped me achieve things in my home studio exponentially. For this I thank you. You are obviously moved by a higher power and it's allowing you to enjoy a rich, fulfilling life. How many of us can say that. Peace & Thanks to you for what you do. God Bless.
I always find myself watching this video and it proves I have no excuse for not recording and getting a great result, time to get a couple friends in and set up that mic!
Ironic how this sound and equipment would've been cutting edge back in the day, yet, people dismiss it today and want old gear because this is "limited". Who understands mankind? Great job, Graham! God bless you!
that was great showing the mic placement for a single drum kit mic. makes me think of a creative way to do that + a further away drum mic A/B stereo-pair in phase to capture a phat room sound. Mmmm THANKS!
Well that's a huge challenge, but i guess you sould place mic centered, but a little far from the Drums cuz they're the most sounding thing. Amps and drums should make a circle, all around the mic so that way all waves go straight to the mic. That would be all. So to check everything is fine, there should be someone else for example on the next room or outside the door who has the earphones and the Laptop to hear what's going on and tell what cant be heard or what's too loud, Hope that helps :D
But back then there were real musicians who knew what they were doing. Nowadays the egos of musicians are too big to record a full band with 1 microphone as every one of them wants to be loud, instead of listening to each other and adjusting their playing volume, in turn letting the band mix the song themselves.
Ok so here's what I think first I think this came out great considering the budget you had it's pretty good improvising and it's good for anyone who just wants to get there stuff out there...but The problem with recording with one mic, especially the drums, is that you now can only pan the drums to one location of the speaker which means that all the instruments are playing in the same space, I know this video is an "improv" for people with small budgets but its still not good if you want your song to sound more full because with more mics you now can pan each instrument to it's desired location depending on it's set up...(mixing tip) So my advice to people wondering, is get your band together and save up money to buy a good audio interface and as many mic's as you're gonna need, it doesn't need to cost much as you can see from watching this video you can get a great sound using a hundred dollar mic, so find ways to improvise! ya know? and you don't have to record each part one at a time, you can all get together and record the traditional way, when you have more mics Anyway it still sounds good!
Glad you demonstrated that. We'd use 3-4 mics for rough practice R2R recordings but still sounded good, albeit ages ago. BTW, your tune has a nice beat.
I copied the mic position you used for the drums in this vídeo, put another one in the bass drum and worked great. Recording na EP with this configuration.
Wow, sounds way better than I expected. If I was going to get nit-picky, I would boost the bass frequencies by quite a bit on the drum (kick region) and the bass guitar more forward as well. Couldn't even really hear the bass guitar. It's a bit thin in the bottom but overall sounds great. This reminds me of the good old days of being a beginner and a songwriter, just like you said. There is so much joy in it, and it's good not to get too discouraged about money and gear.
For the people looking at this in 2018, there's an even better option on Amazon right now. There's a Focusrite mixer for 150 bucks that comes with headphones, a pop filter, and a female cord for any microphone you wanna use. It's a hell of a deal. It also comes with Pro Tools.
Excellent sound. I have to say you played and sang everything really great. But it didn't hurt having a drummer who knows how to play in these situations. Thanks to both of you for all of your help.
the B1 is the only condenser mic i have in my home studio, i have some sm 58 and 57 and others for drums, so i will try it the next session for my band
Yes, anyone can but often they don't and I believe that is what the author is pointing out - that lack of gear is a rut in which many people get stuck and it prevents them from making and recording music. Good job!
Great example graham. You vids have helped me massively on improving the way my home recordings sounds, using less plugins and faster. Great work, please keep the vids coming.
Great work man, This is a perfect example of how good you can be with knowledge instead of cash. I've seen ALOT of people with serious gear and they suck, really really bad......
Great Guitar Playin! Hey I Just purchased this Fast track solo...But am getting no sound thru my speakers. I have the RCA cables connected 2 my small mixer straight to my Maudio speakers and I hear nothing. If anyone can help let me know
Hey, Graham. First of all a BIG THANKS for providing us with such a high quality collection of materials. We are writing the Spanish script of this video in our facebook group “Música Cristiana Independiente”, unfortunately I can’t post the link here. As a FB group we foster cooperation among Christian musicians here in South America. All are welcome. Peace and Blessings Pablo.
Great demo, I love the fact you can hear a good balance of the drum kit with one Mike , who would have thought .! Great tips too on you other videos Thanks graham
LMFAO. did 3:05 make anyone else laugh the way that drummer hit the ride?? the way he leaned into it was hilarious.. I mean, I could imagine he does that so it's easier to get back to the hi-hat.. it just looked funny xDDD ..
At 1st, I thought you meant recording the whole band with 1 mic, with the band playing real time; now I get it- 1 instrument at a time. Your mix sounds great! Esp the drums. Maybe you could share how you processed the drum audio track. Nice job!
I rarely comment on videos, but you've done an excellent job with this. It's important to note the drums, which are hard to record..especially with one mic, sound great. Also note that it's a minimal kit, played thoughtfully, and not overplayed. That's important for any tune, but almost necessary when using few mics.
Fantastic video! The productions of your videos have gotten so good! I used to say all the time...."if you cant record an entire song using a single SM57 then you need to re-think what your doing" You just made my point with a different mic! Great job
i love your filosophy; being on a budget dosent means you can make great work. I supose its all matter of dedication, and taking things seriouslly. THANKS, ITS WAS VERY, VERY, HELPFULL
Nice mate! and yep this is what I do all the time at home. Except for the drums, I could never get it right, so now recording my drum tracks straight off a program. Wasn't much of a drummer anyway ; ) but all guitar work, acoustic, electric, 12 string blah blah all off one mic (studio projects) using the Yamaha mw10c recording unit.
Man, I'm your fan! You made a video about 8 inputs, and other with 1 mic (wich is awesome). Could you make one using 2 inputs? That's what I have here and most people in bedrooms too, I guess. I know I can do one thing at a time, but I want to take advantage of the 2 inputs and learn tricks on it. Thanks
I was looking how to get some good recordings without having a big studio. It was great... you are doing an amazing job, this shows that everyone can get good recordings without spend too much money. Thanks a lot man!!!
The problem with using the same mic for every track is that the dips and curves that each individual microphone has. This will leave very narrow boosts and cuts in your mix. Along with the intended frequency boosts of a mic this can get very messy.

It's amazing to hear how well this sounds with just one microphone and a free DAW. It really shows that nowadays, there are no excuses to get your creativity out there.
Almost every comment here: "great video but the religiousness is annoying"
Cmon guys. He just does what he loves and we are judging him for his beliefs rather than appreciating the help he's given us by teaching how to record our own songs and do what we love.
Nobody said that
Please teach us how to place mic and use the daw. You took all the time to play a whole song
A perfect example of "it's not about having the best, it's about knowing how to use what you have." This is awesome, Graham. A HUGE inspiration to us all!
GREAT video, its awesome how you show you can actually record a whole song with acceptable quality with just around 200 dollars, and your computer, its realy unbelievable, only 200 dollars dude, and it sounds just fine, but seriously, sounds fine, any band would love to have that simple recording. Then what if you spent 400 dollars? 800 dollars? 2000 dollars? Well spent.
That drummer looks so uncomfortable/awkward playing hahahha.
you're right, but recording for drummers is always a pain in the ass... they need to be metronome precise, 100%, all the time. they're slave of the click in the earphones. try to pley relaxed if you have a machine precise click in the ears forcing you to be a machine not a human ;-)
studio drumming is a different ball game he's just trying to get in the groove
he also has to be "mastering" his playing, since it's all on one mic, since you can't raise the volume of the kick and lower the sound of the snare
Patrick Reolon in cubase you can align the beat very simple to grid so recording drums isnt that hard at all :)
Inspect haha are you serious? Fixing in the mix is the worst thing you can do, especially something like that
I love this song! It sounds so amazing, fresh, new, clean. true, the drums sounds roomy and the snare isn't loud enough but with only one mic! Your a master at this stuff! This is genuine christian rock! Thanks for doing this.
When I saw your first video yesterday (The 5 things you need for a home studio) I thought to myself: "He must be a born again christian, he speaks like one".

Ringo Starr what are you doing?
Need to scroll down to find this.
Hahahahah XD
Oh yeah, kind looks like... Nah...
Fucktard
Anti Murphy to go used one mic I don’t think he means that he looks like ringo
Congratulation for the way you share your faith and make professional stuff. And thanks for inspiring me to do it myself too!
this was basically my life before i got multiple mics haha
killeeeeeeed meeeeee!!!
😂😂😂😑
Finally someone who is not ashamed of Jesus. God richly bless you
Hope to get in touch soon
Truly inspiring, man. I would never have dreamed of getting that sound out of such a minimalist method. Thanks for proving me wrong!
Great channel. I was looking around RUclips for something like this to help out a friend who's going to be recording his Praise & Worship songs from home soon which I'll be playing drums for, and found you. I didn't even think you were a Christian until I heard this song. Praise Jesus, what a blessing, keep doing what you're doing for His glory.
Religion doesnt come from personality or looks it's from beliefs
Took me over half the song to realize he was singing about Jesus, I was so busy looking at the mic positioning I wasn't really paying attention to the lyrics lol
Worship music isn't for me, but I can certainly appreciate your videos. Thanks Graham for posting and showing how easy it can be to record and for your tutorials.

I thought you were going to record a whole live band with one mic. Now THAT is a challenge to do well.
I love how you testify through these videos!
Dude, that was seriously the coolest thing I've ever seen. In one shot, you showed your serious talent for recording, music, and your faith. Bravo kind sir. I've got your bandcamp saved in my favorites.
This video came out right around the time I started recording my own material. I come back here every once in a while and I've shown it to many of my musician friends. Every now and then, I need to be reminded that there's value in keeping things simple.
You're an inspiration doc,both spiritually and musically. May the good Lord continue to bless you.
It's great to hear these drums in with an entire mix. Many of the minimum drum micing turotials on the tube show how to to set up the mics, but not the recorded sound mixed in with other instruments. Excellent!
You should do more videos like this, I just keep coming back to this one for inspiration!
Awesome. I have a B-1 as well - going on 10 years now. Great mic for the money. Great job on the recording. Thanks!
Good job fellas. I don't care whether graham sings about jesus, buddha, allah, or plugs a hand weaving website, i'll leave that aside and take the gr8 info he delivers around recording. Love it!
Graham you are simply outstanding teacher. I have learnt so much from your chanel and started getting result applying your technics though my DAW is cubase.
The kit sounds remarkably clear and well eq'd considering everything is bunched together on 1 track. Wow, really neat. Well done!
Simply put, if watchers don't like the theme of the music, they can go elsewhere for recording tutorials. I firmly believe that if Graham wants to demonstrate his production chops using Christian music that is his right. The whole purpose of viewers coming together to watch these videos is because we love and have a passion for recording music.

u just saved me a whole lot of money.i used to play the drums yrs ago but been using Addictive Drums program.i wanted to try playin drums over my music again as aproject.how to mic it up was always aproblem..u got a great sound.well done and thank you
One of my favorites of your videos. You don't need a bunch of extra stuff that costs tons of money to make a really solid recording!
that's not what i was expecting, i was thinking a whole band in a room with one mic. but this sounds great.
ok im officially embarased now wow im rubish at music production....
I agree, that was fantastic as well as encouraging! I'd love to see more challenge videos with the result being an original or cover. It could be a cool little series!
Hi graham. Love this vid. This is very simular to the gear im using.. I dont have space for a drum kit so I use a sequencer, but apart from that its the same. Its encouraging to see whats possible with this kind of gear. Thank you for the inspiration

People, have started to catch on to this "secret weapon" of a mic and the price on eBay has been as high as $70-$125, since earlier this year.
sounds really nice and clean, I'll have to try that drum mic technique at some point.
I like the 'lyrical' content, and this is not a forum of debate, it is one of education and 'sharing'. Another great video Graham.
One of my favorite tracks you've done. Song wise and production wise!
you seriously answered so many questions for me with this informative video! thank you so much :) very inspiring. thank you for your video!
I'll quote myself: "The theme of the music splits people pretty hard in many camps..." means that the theme of the music is something that will split people in many camps of preference very easily and harshly. Thus for an educational video, one would do well to choose something else so that people will focus to the lesson and not the theme of the music itself.

Ironic how this sound and equipment would've been cutting edge back in the day, yet, people dismiss it today and want old gear because this is "limited". Who understands mankind? Great job, Graham! God bless you!
Pretty good mix the only thing that sticks out it the ride bell, bloody good job though !
that was great showing the mic placement for a single drum kit mic. makes me think of a creative way to do that + a further away drum mic A/B stereo-pair in phase to capture a phat room sound. Mmmm THANKS!
I love the end where you're like *Drop the mic* yall aint got no excuses not to make music anymore
How about recording a full band playing live with one microphone?
I wanna know too. When i record with all the Band i can barely hear my voice. :(
Well that's a huge challenge, but i guess you sould place mic centered, but a little far from the Drums cuz they're the most sounding thing. Amps and drums should make a circle, all around the mic so that way all waves go straight to the mic. That would be all. So to check everything is fine, there should be someone else for example on the next room or outside the door who has the earphones and the Laptop to hear what's going on and tell what cant be heard or what's too loud, Hope that helps :D
thats what they used to have to do back in the day with omnidirectional mics
Yep
But back then there were real musicians who knew what they were doing. Nowadays the egos of musicians are too big to record a full band with 1 microphone as every one of them wants to be loud, instead of listening to each other and adjusting their playing volume, in turn letting the band mix the song themselves.
Ok so here's what I think first I think this came out great considering the budget you had it's pretty good improvising and it's good for anyone who just wants to get there stuff out there...but
The problem with recording with one mic, especially the drums, is that you now can only pan the drums to one location of the speaker which means that all the instruments are playing in the same space, I know this video is an "improv" for people with small budgets but its still not good if you want your song to sound more full because with more mics you now can pan each instrument to it's desired location depending on it's set up...(mixing tip)
So my advice to people wondering, is get your band together and save up money to buy a good audio interface and as many mic's as you're gonna need, it doesn't need to cost much as you can see from watching this video you can get a great sound using a hundred dollar mic, so find ways to improvise! ya know? and you don't have to record each part one at a time, you can all get together and record the traditional way, when you have more mics
Anyway it still sounds good!
Glad you demonstrated that. We'd use 3-4 mics for rough practice R2R recordings but still sounded good, albeit ages ago. BTW, your tune has a nice beat.
I especially dig the ironic blend of technology and superstition evidenced in this video... great job!
Fun song! Thanks for the encouragement that I can record with my inexpensive set-up. Time to take my stuff to the church and get recording!
I copied the mic position you used for the drums in this vídeo, put another one in the bass drum and worked great. Recording na EP with this configuration.
Wow, sounds way better than I expected. If I was going to get nit-picky, I would boost the bass frequencies by quite a bit on the drum (kick region) and the bass guitar more forward as well. Couldn't even really hear the bass guitar. It's a bit thin in the bottom but overall sounds great. This reminds me of the good old days of being a beginner and a songwriter, just like you said. There is so much joy in it, and it's good not to get too discouraged about money and gear.
Thank you for preaching the gospel through this amazing video! Praise Jesus!!
For the people looking at this in 2018, there's an even better option on Amazon right now. There's a Focusrite mixer for 150 bucks that comes with headphones, a pop filter, and a female cord for any microphone you wanna use. It's a hell of a deal. It also comes with Pro Tools.
Excellent sound. I have to say you played and sang everything really great. But it didn't hurt having a drummer who knows how to play in these situations. Thanks to both of you for all of your help.
Many of us have bought (or buying) into the 'Sweetwater-fantasy'. Thanks for brining us back to reality.
Thanks a lot, Graham - reminds all of us what we can accomplish with what we've got.
the B1 is the only condenser mic i have in my home studio, i have some sm 58 and 57 and others for drums, so i will try it the next session for my band
Yes, anyone can but often they don't and I believe that is what the author is pointing out - that lack of gear is a rut in which many people get stuck and it prevents them from making and recording music. Good job!
Amazing vocals man! great vid.

Great work man, This is a perfect example of how good you can be with knowledge instead of cash. I've seen ALOT of people with serious gear and they suck, really really bad......
Great Guitar Playin! Hey I Just purchased this Fast track solo...But am getting no sound thru my speakers. I have the RCA cables connected 2 my small mixer straight to my Maudio speakers and I hear nothing. If anyone can help let me know
Hey, Graham. First of all a BIG THANKS for providing us with such a high quality collection of materials.

As a FB group we foster cooperation among Christian musicians here in South America. All are welcome.

Pablo.
Nice! I finally got to see you actually play. Totally appreciate everything you do on youtube. Thanks!
Great demo, I love the fact you can hear a good balance of the drum kit with one Mike , who would have thought .!
Great tips too on you other videos
Thanks graham
I absolutely fell in love with that song and just bought it off Amazon. Your channel is awesome and always very informative. I subbed!
Catchy beat... Now it's stuck in my head!!!!! THANKS, GRAHAM!!!
peace!!
many thanks for your video, I am starting with home recording and realize all the stuff that is not needed to buy !
LMFAO. did 3:05 make anyone else laugh the way that drummer hit the ride?? the way he leaned into it was hilarious.. I mean, I could imagine he does that so it's easier to get back to the hi-hat.. it just looked funny xDDD ..
At 1st, I thought you meant recording the whole band with 1 mic, with the band playing real time; now I get it- 1 instrument at a time. Your mix sounds great! Esp the drums. Maybe you could share how you processed the drum audio track. Nice job!
I only had one dynamic mic when I started out with a 4 track. It does work, and it is possible!
Awesome song! Thanks for the video. You made that look so easy! Now I want to record my band!
I rarely comment on videos, but you've done an excellent job with this. It's important to note the drums, which are hard to record..especially with one mic, sound great. Also note that it's a minimal kit, played thoughtfully, and not overplayed. That's important for any tune, but almost necessary when using few mics.
You should do more of these videos where we can see the whole recording process
Absolutely brilliant! Would you be able to do a longer followup on this showing your mixing process?
Make more music please! Love the song and the style especially. Yes stay strong for Jesus and please share your music, it is so awesome!!
Super job with simple and cheap equipment
I love your videos and website, you have helped me out more than you know....nice song too.
Of course he recorded everything separate. It's the only way to get a quality recording. He did a great job!!!
Fantastic video! The productions of your videos have gotten so good! I used to say all the time...."if you cant record an entire song using a single SM57 then you need to re-think what your doing" You just made my point with a different mic! Great job
thanks for the great song. nice job with fast track. there is more to life than we can see.
i love your filosophy; being on a budget dosent means you can make great work. I supose its all matter of dedication, and taking things seriouslly.
THANKS, ITS WAS VERY, VERY, HELPFULL
Nice mate! and yep this is what I do all the time at home. Except for the drums, I could never get it right, so now recording my drum tracks straight off a program. Wasn't much of a drummer anyway ; ) but all guitar work, acoustic, electric, 12 string blah blah all off one mic (studio projects) using the Yamaha mw10c recording unit.
Yes, the drummer makes it work. He knows how to hit em just right.
fantastic! Really thinking about recording our stuff with one mic only
Thank you so much, I think a lot of people here apreciate your work and help. God bless you.
Yes dude! Just so awesome to hear someone praising Jesus! God bless you.
It sounds really cool, and full... And if you would like, you could overdub the snare or the kick!!
GREAAAAAAAT!!!
Man, I'm your fan! You made a video about 8 inputs, and other with 1 mic (wich is awesome). Could you make one using 2 inputs? That's what I have here and most people in bedrooms too, I guess. I know I can do one thing at a time, but I want to take advantage of the 2 inputs and learn tricks on it. Thanks
I never liked full drum mic setup, sounds too close... this setup is amazing :)
Whatever is more comfortable for you to use. They all perform similar essential functions.
Probably one of your most impressive videos so far!
I was looking how to get some good recordings without having a big studio. It was great... you are doing an amazing job, this shows that everyone can get good recordings without spend too much money. Thanks a lot man!!!
The lyrics are always a problem for me but this guy gives solid, excellent well informed advice. One of the best channels on RUclips
The problem with using the same mic for every track is that the dips and curves that each individual microphone has. This will leave very narrow boosts and cuts in your mix. Along with the intended frequency boosts of a mic this can get very messy.
