RE: anyone got good eq ears?
"i guess my main issue is that loads of classic tunes have been recorded with just samplers, synths and stuff outside from a pc and sound great"
yeah, but they possibly had a better mixer, and possibly they were eq-ing stuff before bouncing it back to the sampler... lotsa old mixers with two swept bands to be had for not too much money btw (soundtrax, soundcraft, mackie maybe, a&h(?))
"thanks for the advice i think im gonna try a couple of different things (ie mix with bd down by 1db etc), record the results and play accross as many systems as i can find to try and reach a balance"
but your balance is not bad i think, its more about the detail etc like we said.
"also what would you consider the best stereo para is for say under £300??? ive used behringer before i didnt really like them"
yeah, they're kinda useless
. dunno... maybe a used joey meek, focusrite, tl-audio, tc electronics or something along those lines?
or if you decided to get a multitracker and track to pc, you could always slave the MPC to it via MTC so sync wouldnt really be an issue any more.
or if you're hardcore, you could get a better analogue mixer?
