Arranger - I have been using a Canon S900 photo printer and have gotten good results. I think Canon has discontinued this printer but the S950 is out and is about $250. I did a run of 50 CDs for a friend of mine, this included a 4 panel insert, tray insert (behind CD) and labels. I was using...

Do any of you have any experience with using the EV N/D 408B to mic a kick drum? I have seen a couple of these mics for cheap money but I don't know if they are worth it. I did a search in this forum and came up with nothing. I am currently using an Audio Technica ATM25 to mic kick drums and I...

Hey Poo. I picked up a dBx 166A Dual Channel Compressor for about $150 and its worked well for me.

I have recently been looking at the MXL V-77 tube mic, does anyone have experience with this mic? I picked up the 2001P mic a couple of months ago. I'm happy with the performance considering its price. I know that there have been mixed feelings/reviews on the MXL 2001 and 2003 mics. I wanted to...

Thanks for the input. I think that I'm going to go with the AKG D112. By the way, what price range does the AT 25 fall into?

Can anyone tell me the major differences between the AKG D112 and the Shure Beta 52 Kick Drum mics? Which one do you prefer? Thanks

I have recently been researching the idea of starting a label. I have to agree with Eddie N, a good starting point is to read as much as you can. The first three books I have gone through are: "Releasing an Independent Record" by Gary Hustwit "In the Right Direction" by Samuel Gilleylen These 2...

I've been following your posts on Audio 797. Do you know if Marshall is planning on distributing the whole line of Audio 797 mics (CR3000, CR414, CR100.....)?

Thanks to everyone for the advice. I have actually started using my ears as a microphone. I'm able to hear the same sound in the speakers nearfield that I was hearing from the monitors. Unfortunately I have not been able to find a sweet spot w/ the mic. I am actually looking at different amps...

I am having trouble recording a good guitar sound. The set-up I'm using is simple, its a Les Paul going through a Boss DS-1 distortion pedal into a vintage Fender tube amp. The amp is mic'ed with an SM57 (on axis, right on the grill). The signal is being recorded onto a Roland VS1680. The...

I've been looking at the MXL 2001 and 2003 condenser mics. I've seen postings that claim these mics sound as good as the Neumann U87 (for only a fraction of the price). Is there any truth to this? Does anyone out there have experience using these mics?

I just bought the VS1680. If you look around the web you may be able to find a used one below retail (check harmony central and check e-bay-I've seen a loaded system for around $2500). You have the option of getting 1 or 2 plug in cards which contain a ton of effects so you won't need outboard...
