What’s your go-to vocal microphone?
  • I've been looking at getting one of those myself recently. Do you have any experience with recording full blown screams with it? I'm a metal guy, and as usual I cant find a single sound demo of how it sounds through screams.

    Then again, I've read a lot of stellar reviews for it, so I figure it'll probably be great no matter what I record with it

  • What DAW is everyone here using and why?
  • Reaper user here - its cheap, minimalist, customizable and has some of the best stock plugins of any DAW I've ever tried. Plus, you can seamlessly use electronic music tools whilst also throwing in real world recordings (useful for one of my projects where theres both synths and live guitars, bass and vocals).

  • Who’s your favorite mixer right now?
  • I really like the sounds Peter Tagtgren (Hypocrisy, Pain) gets both as a recording engineer and mixing. He shows up so much on late 90's swedish extreme metal and the sound is super recognizable. Even his more recent albums retain a more old-school sound on guitars, which I really appreciate given that I dislike the "modern metal" guitar sound. Also, the bass guitars on several of the albums he's produced is crazy. Plus, I really like the drum sounds he's gotten over the years, particularly the kick drum sound that shows up on most of the Amon Amarth albums he's recorded and mixed.

    I guess Jens Bogren also should get a mention, as he's been on almost every big metal album for the past decade or two, including Opeth and Be'lakor, which are my 2 favorite bands right now
