Phillip – That mic will work great for overhead on drums. It will not hurt it one bit.It can handle 134 -144 DB which is WAY louder than a drum set.See the Sterling website:http://www.sterlingaudio.net/products/index.cfm?hp=st55 If you want a great free book on recording drums:http://www.shure.com/stellent/groups/public/@gms_gmi_web_ug/documents/web_resource/us_pro_mic_techniques_drums_ea.pdfhttp://www.shure.com/ProAudio/Resources/us_resources_microphonesIt is a myth that you need to mic every drum to get a good recording – see the Shure book.
Yes the volume increases – the pressure decreases as a result and air enters the lungs in inspiration.
‘though the SM57 and 58 are fine dynamic microphones worthy of their place in any recording studio, for acoustic instruments you should consider a condenser mic for the cleaner, crisper sound.You are only going to need a mixer if you are going to record several sources at once – you’re right that a mixer would give you the phantom power that you will need for a condenser mic, however some condensers can be fitted with batteries to negate the need for phantom power.Before you plunge into mixers, if you are planning to record on your PC, take a look at my online guide to multi-track recording here:http://www.cassette2cd.co.uk/DIY/index.phpfollow the link to ‘multi-track recording’ this was done using free (AUDACITY) software and a condenser with a AA battery -these condensers are excellent and not too expensive. A pre-amp would enable you to gain more control over the recording as generally you have to crank the volume up to maximum to get one of these mic’s to record onto a PC.A pre-amp is a small amplifier that boosts the output to a level that another device such as a full-blown amplifier or recording needs. Some mixers include a pre-amp, check the specifications if you’re not sure…For more on microphones visit:http://www.cassette2cd.co.uk/studio/index.htmclick on the links for ‘microphone types’, ‘dynamic vs condenser’ and ’specific applications’ for all I know about mic’s…Hope that’s enough to be going on with…
When you breath from your diaphragm, your shoulders don’t rise. That is how you know you are breathing properly. As far as using that breath, there are a few insights. One is to speak to the back of the room. Speak clearly and slow your speech down slightly. Also with the breath don’t let lots of air escape when you speak. That will give your voice more volume and less “airy”. sometimes when you speak in a deeper voice the sound caries further. You can try all of this in the biggest room in your house or even the venue you are speaking in, if you get there early enough.
A warm full crisp sound can be obtained in Pro Tools LE by simply using the onboard effects. The acoustic guitar can be brightened up with the Amplitube effect, or you can just use an EQ setting. My advice, is play with the controls until you find your sweet spot. From what I’ve seen is that everyone has a different perfect tone. My suggestion is use various EQ and find your sweet spot, use a compressor for all of it, it makes everything sit a lot better in the mix, Throw a small bit of wet reverb in the mix to build the full sound as well. Those should get you started on finding your sound.
Greetings,That is quite a bit of stuff for such a small amount of cash. Bravo!There are two negatives to your list though. First, the software you are purchasing leaves you entirely incompatible with most other studios. It may not be important now but you may find that you’ve written and recorded something that someone else wants to use or remix but you are not in a format most people would recognize. Second, there is nothing worse than buying something and then buying a better version a year later because you’ve outgrown it. Always seemed like a big waste of money. So, I would skip the MXL 3000 and go for a standard dynamic like a SM57 or a Beta 57. Those are both in your pricerange and you will never need to replace them. I have microphones that cost more than $5000 but I still use my SM57 for vocals, guitars and snare drums. That MXL might be a Condenser Microphone but I’d rather have a microphone that people are used to hearing (the 57 is used for vocals all the time) than a Cheap Condenser. I’ve heard those things and I’d rather record through a straw than use one of those things.Why not spend a bit more and get the Sony 7506 headphones which are standard in every studio in the world. At least you can reference other CD’s to your work on the same headphones that are just standard everywhere. It appears that you are not budgeting 20K for monitoring but only budgeting $20 will make ya crazy fast and you’ll be replacing those headphones fast. Might as well buy the right ones right away.Finally, I would consider Reason over FL Pro because FL is a toy about one step up from Guitar Hero. Of course, I’m very opinionated about it. Maybe Protools LE or Sonar as your mixing program.Good Luck,
Condenser mics work well for acoustic guitars, they bring out the crisp highs of the guitar, the Shure SM57 is a moving coil mic, and is best for vocal recording go with the AKG cuz of its full frequency response range. I’m in audio production, so I kinda know my mics…try the AKG model

It’s a little more money (ok, well, twice as much) but the SM7 ( http://pro-audio.musiciansfriend.com/product/Shure-SM7B-Microphone-with-Switchable-Response?sku=270247 ) is THE current rock vocal mic.I’m not sure the AT would be a lot better than the Samson that you have.
Either will work. I personally like a small diaphragm on pianos only because they are lighter and smaller than a large diaphragm mic. You can place the mic easier and find the sweet spot – the stand also holds the mic in place easier because it is lighter weight.Large diaphragms do work well on vocals – you may need a pop filter though.
Audacity can only get you so far, i’m a bit of a fan of Cubase give that a go, you will also need a “dead” area to record the vocals, by dead I mean an area where there isn’t allot of reverb.
1) The umbilical cord contains two arteries and a vein. The cord connects to the placenta, with the placenta being an organ with a side connected to mom and a side connected to the baby. The mom’s blood carries nutrients and oxygen to the placenta, where they are picked up by the baby’s cord and carried to the baby. The baby carries waste products (like carbon dioxide) to the placenta, where the mom’s blood picks them up and carries them away.2) Appendix3) Heart & the great vessels ex. arota, Respirtory system (trachea, lunges etc.), digestive system(esophagus,), & endocrine glands, including the thymus gland.4) Technically no, there is no real need for the fetus to use their lungs since they depend on the mother for oxygen. 5) “epiglottis is a lid-like flap of elastic cartilage tissue covered with a mucous membrane, attached to the root of the tongue.” Its main fuction is to gaurd the entrance to the vocal cords.
Epiglottis – controls the entrance to the larynx or pharynx, helping control swallowing and voice.Larynx – where the pigs voice comes from.Pericardium – Membrane that surrounds the heart and the “roots” of the great blood vessels (major arteries).diaphragm – large membrane separating the lungs and the digestive tract (stomach, intestines, ect. Helps with breathing.large intestine – last stage of the digestive system — re-absorption of water last vestiges of nutrients. small intestine – next-to-last part of the digestive system, performing nutrient absorption and breakdown of lipids (fats)anus – sphincter muscle at the exterior end of the large intestine, helping control excretion.mesentery – membrane that anchors the small intestine to the “back” of the abdomen.
If you are good at staying quiet while recording then a large diaphragm mike like a Sennheiser will pick up every nuance. If you are in a noisy place or don’t want a lot of background noise then a good unidirectional mike like a Shure 57 is excellent.
1. Blood continuing to flow to the lungsExtraction of all available oxygen.2. A large reduction in blood flow to the diaphragmLung movements are not needed and oxygen consumption by an unnecessary muscle is reduced.
