Quote of the Day

“There’s nothing like getting up in the morning and having your coffee and all of a sudden having this idea and being able to go into the next room and do it. Maybe I’ll work for another hour and do two more takes. Nine times out of ten, that first take is going to be the one that makes it on the record.”- Geoff Tate of Queensr˙che

3:1 rule/4:1 rule

When recording with multiple mics in close proximity, you can avoid phase problems by separating the mics by at least 3 times the mic-to-source distance. (see picture) For instance, if a mic is one foot away from its sound source, then no other mic should be closer than three feet from this first mic. (See also 10 dB rule.)
