article: Soundproofing really does two things. It makes the room quieter by blocking out outside noise. It also makes the sound quality better on recording by absorbing excess acoustic ambience. Professional soundproofing can be expensive. Acoustic foam or panels work if you have money to spend, but may run you significant costs for a large studio. One inexpensive way to reduce sound is in the selection of the studio space. Try to select a live room without windows and with heavy, thick walls or thick insulation. If you are on a budget, get some blankets and cover up any windows and doors to reduce background noise. Added mass to the walls, like foam, also helps to increase the room's sound absorption. This should reduce echoes. repare a vocal booth. Most studios set aside space specifically for vocals. Vocals can be hard to record. They should be recorded standing up, which makes it easier for the singer to sustain a good sound. The mic should also be at a comfortable height. The vocal booth is an isolation booth, so it should be acoustically isolated. Make sure to soundproof it as best you can. The mic itself should have a pop filter to protect it from saliva and to filter out sharp sounds, like t's and s's. If you don't have a pop filter, you can buy one for $10 or $20. If your mic is directional, so that only one side picks up sound, turn it so the side of the mic is facing the vocalist. His mouth should be about 10-15 cm away from the mic when singing. This distance shouldn't be altered too much, as it will cause the recording to sound off. You'll want mics to be just far enough from the sound source (i.e. acoustic instruments or amplifiers) so that they don't hinder the musicians. This typically doesn't involve a pop filter of any kind. If you have a small instrumental mic, use that. Instructions are usually included with the user manual. Use component mics or a single mic above the drums. Recording drums will vary according to the type of sound you want and what kind of gear the musicians come with. The best drum sound comes from single mics that clip onto individual components. You can then put these on the same channel in the DAW. If you don't feel like outfitting each component with a separate mic, take one mic and position it a few feet above the center of the kit. No pop filter is needed but make sure to face the mic's recording side down. Doing so will add more "room sound" to the mix.

Dampen the soil then add more, if needed. Dig a hole large enough to it your first herb. Remove the plant from its original pot. Place the herb into the hole and cover it with 1 inch (2.5cm) of soil. Repeat the process for the remaining herbs. Water the soil well, then transfer the pot into a sunny location."
article: This will help keep the soil inside the pot and prevent it from falling out. Alternatively, you can tuck a coffee filter into the bottom of the pot, or use a piece of broken pottery. The mesh screen does not have to be big--anything large enough to cover the hole is fine. The broken pottery will keep the soil in the pot, but it will still allow water to drain out. Use a trowel or your gloved hands to fill your pot with potting (not gardening) soil. Keep adding soil until you are 2 to 3 inches (5.1 to 7.6cm) from the pot's rim. Gently pat the soil down with your hands. If your pot is made from clay, soak it overnight first. This will prevent it from absorbing the water from the soil. Use just enough water to make the soil damp. Be sure to mix it with a trowel so that you distribute the water throughout the soil. You want it to be evenly moist from top to bottom. Sometimes, wet soil compresses, so if it falls more than 3 inches (7.6cm) below the top edge of the pot, mix in more soil. How deep and wide this hole is depends on the size of your plant. Take a look at the pot that your herb came in, then dig a hole that is just a little bit larger than that. Be sure to leave enough room for the other herbs. Instead of digging right in the middle of the pot, dig close to the edge. Do not grab the plant by the stem and yank it up, as you can damage it. Instead, gently squeeze the plastic pot by the sides, then tip it over to slide the plant out. Do just 1 herb for now. Once you take the herb out of the pot, you want to get it into the soil as quickly as possible. If the roots are tightly packed, gently loosen them with your fingers first. Next, tuck the herb into the hole you just made, then fill any gaps in the hole with soil. Cover the root ball with 1 inch (2.5cm) of soil. Gently pat the soil down with your hands to make it nice and neat. Note that the soil level should remain the same from the store container to the newly-planted pot for most plants. Dig a hole into the soil, then remove the herb from its original pot. Set the herb into the hole, then cover it with 1 inch (2.5cm) of soil. Keep going until you have used up all of your herbs. Work 1 herb at a time. You don't want to leave the other herbs laying around outside of their original pots for too long. Leave a few inches/centimeters of space between each herb. Plant taller herbs in the center and shorter herbs around the sides. Pour enough water into the pot until it starts to come out of the bottom. Let the pot finish draining, then set it outside or on a sunny counter or windowsill. Place the pot on top of a plastic or ceramic tray. This will help keep your table or counter clean. Don't leave the excess water in the saucer. Lift the pot up and dump the water out.

Add the colorful pumpkinseed to your tank for an iridescent addition. Pick the fathead minnow for a durable addition to your tank. Select trout for your tank if you can keep the temperature cooler. Avoid buying or catching fish that will grow to be too large."

Bass are very active and swim most of the day and night. They will often start to follow you along the tank once they get to know the feeding routine. Bass do grow very quickly, so try to catch or buy a smaller one, close to 3 to 4 inches (7.6 to 10.2cm) so you can enjoy watching it grow. Bass enjoy small insects, algae, shrimp, and bloodworms, and they also can be taught to eat flakes or pellets. Bass will generally eat about 2/3 of their weight every day, which means you'll need to keep an eye out on your filter to make sure it keeps working properly. You can easily catch sunfish in the wild, and there are about 30 separate species. These are also great fish if you have a smaller aquarium. They'd do well in a 55 to 75USgal (210 to 280L) tank. Most sunfish eat insects, small fish, and crustaceans, and they don't grow as fast as bass. Large, adult sunfish can become territorial, so keep an eye on their behavior. If they get too aggressive, they may need to be moved into their own tank. If you love the look of tropical fish, the pumpkinseed would be a good choice for you as they're the most similar in coloring. At the most, the pumpkinseed should only grow to be 9 inches (23cm), which makes it a nice tank addition. Pumpkinseed fish like to eat small insects, snails, and larvae. They'll also eat shrimp, bloodworms, flakes, and pellets. Pumpkinseed fish can be very aggressive, so keep an eye out and remove them if they start attacking their neighbors. They eat algae, plankton, and small insects, but they will also eat flakes, shrimp, and bloodworms. At the most, add 2 minnows per 10 gallons (38L) of water. These are fish that can withstand a lot of changes in their environment, which makes them a nice investment for your aquarium. If you're buying these fish, they're often called "rosy reds." Trout need colder temperatures than most other gamefish, so they often can't be combined with the general varieties, like bass and sunfish. Keep the temperature at 59 to 63F (15 to 17C). Trout also need a lot of strong currents, so make sure your tank is equipped to aerate the water a lot. For a 1,000USgal (3,800L) tank, at most you'd want to add 2 to 3 trout, so keep that in mind when choosing fish for your aquarium. Trout like to eat leeches, bloodworms, and small insects, and they also can be taught to eat flakes and pellets. The brown trout and the rainbow trout are the ones most often kept in aquariums. Carp will grow to be up to 4 feet (48in) and produce an excessive amount of waste. Alligator gar can exceed 6 feet (72in), and sturgeon can also grow to 6 feet (72in) and weigh over 200 pounds (91kg). A lot of these fish would also eat their tank mates. When in doubt, do some research or ask someone who has an established gamefish aquarium for recommendations.
