I love how he makes the comparison to print art... pure Eno. His music is very visual, if that makes sense.

Just moments ago I was talking to a co-worker. We have a new employee here who is going to share my office, and we needed to move a bookcase from one side of the room to the other (by the way, I don't have an audio-related day job). I moved a box of EMTEC 468 that I just picked up from eBay. He...

I found this reel in a box. There was a really faint signal on it, probably recorded from an LP to a consumer deck. I loaded it onto my Tascam 22-2 and recorded some music, and it came out loud and clear. It has a nice sound to it, not amazingly hi-fi but a hair muted. Probably good for some...

I'm recording some demos for a friend tonight. He's going to sing and play acoustic guitar at the same time. For him, these will be demos to give to his bandmates so they can learn the songs. For me, I want to use this opportunity to try some new things. While this will just be a demo CD of...

I have to prep a master tape for the mastering engineer tonight. It's the first project I've done on analog (outside of recordings I made in school, back in 1990). So I tore my house apart looking for my splicing block, and never found it. And of course, nobody in town carries them anymore...

I'm selling my Mackie 1604 VLZ Pro (XDR Preamps). It's about 2-3 years old and is in excellent condition, aside from a cosmetic blemish on the rail below the faders (some of the grey finish came off from tape). The only noisey pot on the board is the Control Room volume... nothing that will get...

I bought a Studiomaster 16-4-2 via eBay recently. I'm really happy with the sound of this board... a big step up from my Mackie. However, I can't figure out for the life of me how to get Solo to work. It doesn't seem to do anything! The solo light comes on, but I still here the main mix. I...

Yup, another calibration thread. :D Last night I worked on calibrating my Tascam 22-2. I tried to follow the directions here: http://www.recordingwebsite.com/articles/tapecal.php I have an MLR tape (unfortunately, it's 250 Nw/m instead of the 185 that I need for Quantegy 407, but I'm...

Hi... I believe this is my first post. Nice place you got here. :cool: I record using a DAW, but I have a Tascam 22-2 that I recently cleaned up and calibrated. I am working on a project right now, and we want to mix to analog tape. I'll be bussing everything out via my two Delta 1010s...
