I have a Juno-106 in my possession, It's got a scratchy input, I'd love to fix it for the owner. Not all patches, but some (and I think more so for low frequencies) give off a buzz like a dirty input pot. Has anyone encountered the same problem? Anyone know a way of fixing this at home...

I'm reading about a technique for matching a mic to a source and vice versa. The technique is as follows (taken from Mixing with your Mind): 1) Listen to the source and rate its perceived "Hardness" from 1-10 (H1-H10). 2) Set up your entire mic collection and and rate each mics perceived...

The Lord is my drummer, I shall not rush. He maketh me to lay out in tasteful places He leadeth me beside cool meter changes He restoreth my "one". Yeah man, though I read through the trickiest of charts, I will fear no train wrecks. For You are with it. Your ride and Your snare, they comfort...

How would you use a SDC combined with a LDC to mic an acoustic guitar? The specific mics I'm using are SC-1 & A-51V. It sounds decent with just the SDC, but how can the LDC add to this. Thanks in advanced.

A while few weeks back I was in a music store in Toronto (L&M's). In their acoustic guitar room, they had a guitar tuner on the wall, it looked like a picture in a 1.5' by 2' frame. You could tune from anywhere in the room, no plugging in. I can not for the life of me find anything like it...

I'm a little confused on how output gain can affect the compressed signal. Say you have a transient rich signal with an RMS of -18db(FS) and peaks at -6db. For the sake of this example, suppose you set a ratio of 4:1 and a threshold of -16db. Does the increasing the output gain at this stage...

Hello All :D I'm looking into this unit, I just have a couple questions I can't find answers to. Features • 120 dB dynamic range • Gain Control • Signal / Overload Indicator • Polarity Switch • Switchable 48 V Phantom Power • True differential Input • Cross-coupled line driver • UL/CSA/CE and...

Rock and Roll Music, 24bit, 44.1: How much of an impact do you think compressing to hard disk has on the overall level (RMS) of the recording after all is said and done? (percussion especially) Would you say it is absolutely necessary (in the long run) to learn compression well enough to...

Newbie Alert! I've been reading here at HR for close to two years. I have posted here and there but for the most part you good people posting on this site do a great job covering everything a newbie like me needs to know. I hope to start posting more, and I think the mixing clinic is the best...
