You need to find one that allows multitracking such as Cool Edit Pro. First, I normalize each of the source recordings to around 60-65% (this seems to work out best). Then, I add one to the multitrack layout, and try to line up the second recording so it matches best. Some of this is trial and error, but eventually you can get a close match at the beginning. To sound "right," you'll need to be pretty exact- within .02 second or less. Any more than that and you're adding a lot of echo. You may or may not need to make additional small corrections later on in the recording. You don't want the two to gradually drift apart as the show goes on. Once they're in synch you can mix them down to two stereo tracks, and if you have the levels set right beforehand, the resulting recording will be close to 100% normalization. Interestingly, mixing two recordings adds greatly to the presence, definition, and clarity. Imagine that a recorder samples the sound and is never able to represent it with 100% accuracy. Then the second recorder does the same thing. So, some bits of information missed by one recorder will be filled in from the second, bringing the new version much closer to 100% of the sound. This is especially true when two different sets of microphones were used. ------------------------------ From: Jan Freise Subject: FS: Pair of DPA 4061and Sonic Studio DSM-3's Reply-To: Jan Freise Date: Tue, 22 Jun 2004 15:38:06 +0200 Hi, i have for sale 1 pair DPA 4061, black in very good condition $500 or best offer 1 Sonic Studio DSM-3 mic-pair w/ hard-shell case $240 or best offer 1 Sony DAT Recorder PCM-M1 very good condition make offer The DAT is sold stand-alone, no AC Adaptor or head-phones (dont need these anyway).
