Re: Keeping Your Music Collection A Secret...

Re: Monitors or treatment?

depends on size/shape of room. 8 inch cones are going to put huge bass reflections in a small room, especially if it's rectangular. if you had the 5's i would say go for treatment. but since you have the 8's i would flip those, get some equator d5's and acoustic foam. I owned a pair of equator d5 t...

Re: Creative Sub Bass Processing

No point lowpassing a sine unless your adding harmonics through saturation etc as its only a single frequency Try LfOs and envelopes on the pitch to give it movement and shaping the vol env to give it punch From there its just getting it to sit right in the mix.
