... so I've got this small pile of 4-track recordings ... some of which are stereo ambient mic / stereo soundboard ....
All was recorded via my Edirol FA-101 as multiple tracks with complete seperation (no nasty sync issues =) ... Mixing the two of these on the same "bus" (cubase digital bus) results in an okay mix (I can also adjust gain individually for each track) .... great .. the strings and vocals now have clarity without sacrificing the ambience of room mics.
... going forward I'm realizing I should be asking for more tracks, and maybe invest in a second set of mics with a tighter card shape.
How do I get rid of this nasty audience noise? Give up since I'm not on stage (maybe I should be)? I tried EQ'ing a little to no avail since I dont really know where to start.
Although I can do it between songs .... I cant turn down the mics during a song or I lose ambience ...
any tips?
