Mono or Stereo

[Strictt Ame]

I'm pretty sure microphones (used for music at least) are only mono.

With my audio interface (PreSonus Inspire 1394) I have the option to do both..

Well let me rephrase I can either record a single mono channel centered or I can record two simontanious mono channels into Adobe Auditon..one panned left and one panned right (which gives off a stereo sound)..I was just wondering what other emcee use becuase Im not getting the sound I want with the centered channel..I have to dub almost everything to prevent from getting a dull flat sound (see battle with Chambers)..it makes my delivery sound bland, even though whenever I freestyle or do a live show my delivery is one of my stronger points..

hmm im pretty sure you're mic isn't that great then and it has nothing to do with mono settings...I have the same issue which is why i always dub my verse completely...

I have a Shure KSM32..same microphone as DZK, obviously I dont have his processor power or mixing talent..but I cant figure out why my recorded verses come out flatter than my live verses..

Word, next time I record I will send you a copy..you want the pella tracked out or all in one?

[Tash8]

tracked out as in, like the punchins all seperate and stuff?

i'd prefer if u just mixed it down so they're all in one file but if that doesn't work i understand and it's cool. just make sure it's raw and unmixed.

Ok..I can do that..

maybe I shuold try that myself..I usually do all the effects/EQ/reverb and what not on each track seperatly..I wonder if that could be fuckin it up..I dunno at this point Im lost as how to fix my quality..lol I have pretty damn good equipment Im just not that good at mixing, and online tutorials are too generic..

[Spyder]

that does seem like a pain in the ass, well anyways just send it to me if i can make it sound good then it's just a mixing issue and i can always help you with that.
