"oops"
|
So last night I actually got around to proofing the TIA recordings, and, um, wow. I had no idea that there was so much ridiculously extraneous mic noise, nor that the encoding on the new parts (tia01-06 and beyond) sucked so much. Maybe the problems are just more obvious through headphones than speakers, I'm not sure, but damn. Er, sorry about that. The spot checks I did when I recorded them sounded okay, but I wasn't giving them terribly close attention and I wasn't using an iPod. Going to have to re-think how I do these things, I think... --G. -><- Benjamin D. Hutchins, Co-Founder, Editor-in-Chief, & Forum Admin Eyrie Productions, Unlimited http://www.eyrie-productions.com/

>Perhaps you would like to look at Shure's line of wireless and wired >handhelds?Well, I don't actually use a handheld, I just felt like quoting the Beastie Boys. At the moment I'm using a Plantronics headset with a boom mic. I think it was originally designed for teleconferencing, but it works a lot better than the tiny clip-on electret mic I was using for earlier recordings (like Hogtown Rhapsody), when I managed to position the mic correctly so that it doesn't thump every time I say a percussive consonant (and when I remember that I can't touch, adjust, or scratch my head near the headset while I'm recording, because, as I recently discovered to my chagrin, that is clearly audible - oops). That said, I've long thought that if I had the money/were really serious about this recording gig, I'd get a 55SH. (Just like Kaitlyn uses! :) --G. -><- Benjamin D.

>price point's a lot lower than a Shure 55, last time I checked. Not hugely; I mean, Guitar Center lists the 55SH Series II for $159 and the Snowball for $99. Yeah, $60 is fairly substantial, but when you consider the difference in price between, say, a Snowball and the same manufacturer's Cactus ($2,499)... --G. -><- Benjamin D.
