    This is super nice. Did you buy the everything bundle and you are giving away your duplicates? Was wondering how I would handle that situation since they dont offer an upgrade option when I reached out. 
     

     

    The price on the bundle was so low over the holidays that it was a good deal, even with all the duplication

    But I did have to think about it before buying

    If you want one, reply Yes

    I have 31 to give away, so the first 31 people to reply Yes get one each

    (Someone suggested, wisely, that I check whether I'm allowed to give these away, so I asked Yurt Rock, and I received an email today with the go-ahead)

    Trying to start the new year on a generous note

    I bought The Ultimate Bundle yesterday, which leaves me with 31 duplicate products I've never used

    I'll use a random-number generator to decide who gets which item

    I was going to post a list of what I have and let people ask for what they wanted, but there was the risk of ending up with one happy person and everyone else frustrated

    I figure if I send you one you don't like you can offer to trade it with someone in a similar situation

    I'm trusting everyone to play fair and not post or share files; if you get an item, it's for your use and yours alone (or you can trade it without using it)

    We've always seemed an honorable bunch; let's live up to that rep

    Happy '24

    Recording vocals with decent loudness and without clipping?

    There's really no advantage to absolutely belting the signal in a DAW because the noise floor will be too low to care about in practice. On tape, we used to have to try to get the most out of everything going in to end up with a clean recording.

    I'd recommend what was said - turn everything down, then boost it all at the end if it's too quiet for you... or simply turn your volume up. Don't normalize, that's a destructive process. Use volume or gain adjustments or automation envelopes.

    Don't forget that most commercial music is mastered too, so what people give the mastering engineer is likely as quiet as you're hearing, and it gets boosted up by the engineer. If anything, giving a hot mix to a mastering engineer is a bit of a bad idea because they want some headroom to work with.

    If the vocal you're trying to record is super dynamic, other that suggesting working on both vocal and mic technique (move in closer for the quiet parts, move away for the belts), running a hardware limiter after the mic and preamp but before your soundcard input is a solution. Something like a Empirical Labs Distressor is a common choice here.

    Thanks. Makes sense.
