I just want some ideas as to how to limit or eliminate some of the buzzing/noise in the background. I have heard of noise gates and direct boxes and such but am unsure of which I need or if i need them at all. The problem is not serious but I would like to have a cleaner sound if possible. Perhaps even more importantly I would like to make sure I am causing no damage to any of my equipment.
It will probably help to know my usual setup(s).
-Mic(s) straight to mixer via a 1/4" jack(sometimes to a pedal first. I have used my "guitar" pedals for all instruments)
-guitar(s) either to lo, hi or aux in amp, OR Into mixer first(often with a pedal).
- Keyboard exactly as guitar, except usually without effect.
-mixer is either before or after my amp. I don't believe I have ever done it without the amp, but I have done it without mixer. Whichever comes last then send out to the computer to record.
-I have recently gotten cubase but have yet to really delve into it, though i suspect it may have options for me as well for noise/hum reduction.
OK, if you need to know anything else check my profile or just ask away. All suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
