Somehow I settled on just spacing them at the typical 6 1/2 inch distance, more or less above a point between kick and snare, about 2 feet above the rack tom. I admit this may not be great for mono...

You'd have to try the unmatched mics and see. I know an engineer who used overheads on different sides of the kit, like 5 feet apart. So, in that case it probably doesn't matter that they are not...
Sorry I missed your question. In my opinion, if the room is good then you'll go for whatever mic sounds best on the kit. If the room is challenging then the mic choice is more about dealing with...
Good to know. They have some very creative tools for dynamics, but I only got as far as the traditional compressor, EQ, gate and limiter.
Hey Micro. Yeah, got Waves 9 working which includes the IR-L reverb. After I upgrade Levelizer and Midi Workshop I will explore some of the suggested reverb plug-ins....thank you. I want to steer...
I think drums and upright bass are at the top of the list of challenging instruments to mic. In recent years, I have been happy with 2 ribbons overhead, a kick, and one snare mic on top. You can...
I have the 64 bit SAW running nicely today, doing a simple mix. I am sticking with Win 7 for a bit mostly because it works. I looked around for what 64-bit plug-ins I have that use a non-dongle...
I assume that the 64 bit SAW will open a 32-bit edl, but not the other way around? And how many of you guys have moved on to Windows 10? I am still running 7 (64 bit) here.
Thanks for the ideas! Just using the IR-L convolution, usually the plate. But, Spazio was what I was mainly using for several years.
Okay, got it. The shell2vst was a zip file with both 32 and 64 bit versions inside. The 64 bit waves plugs (version 9) appear to be working. Thanks.
Hello guys! I hope everyone is doing well. First, a big congratulations to Bob on the 64 bit release!!
I have been distracted from studio work with teaching, grad school, and lots of...
Packed! This has to do with how a 24 bit number is stored in the wav file. I'm not exactly sure what unpacked means here, but packed is what you want and each 24 bit sample will be packed into 3...
This will be awesome! SAW is the best!
Steve, great to hear from you! Hope things are going well. And thanks for the exciting news about the plug-ins.
Not sure. But, when teaching a C coding class last year, I let a student use his Windows laptop, but some security program would delete the programs that he made without asking. So, maybe there is...
I'm enjoying your insights guys. I just wanted to say a nice combination for me has been pairing digital recording with ribbon mics. To me they impart something that I like from tape.
I use it al the time. Remember to insert it in the final resolution spot on the master output. Then build to fx.
It would be great to have a sticky or similar to keep track of what VST plug-ins are working 100%, mostly, or not at all in SAW. After you get past the minor inconvenience of the ShellVST I can't...
I too would like to see how Windows 10 and the Shell extraction utility get working....I have not tried it with Windows 10. I am running Windows 7 with Waves 8 Platinum and Waves 9 (CLA Compressors)...
Thanks Bob!!
This is great stuff especially for a Rush fan. But, the story about the bad batch of tape disintegrating while trying to mix was great too. Thanks!
I agree with Bob. It would be odd for two different compressors with the same parameters to produce the same results. I have actually designed a couple and believe me there is no one way to go...
I have loosely maintained a PTLE system for compatibility and out of curiosity. With my subscription just up for renewal I decided to pass. There is nothing spectacular about Pro Tools and bugs...
I brought up the going by ear method because if you are mastering tracks, you could put them all at exactly the same RMS value (using an offline RMS algorithm and compensating with gain accordingly),...
I use the Sonoris meter for RMS. The one in the SAW mixer is for peaks. You could also check loudness (offlline) in something equivalent to Wavelab. Or, if you have a reference track you could...
