    C1 cat's pajamas or ass?

    I go with Justin's opinion. Paired with a nice pre its a nice vocal mic for the buck.

    Before I order this pre....

    the LC sure has A/D D/A, as it works on "dynamic" convolution. Its the emulation thingy, needs to be done in the digital domain (DSP thing). As far as the Trak 2, you'll probably be better off getting some of the other bad ass pre's reccomended here, and a separate converter.

    Mic Pre-Amp recommendations

    You might also want to check A-Designs' MP2 all tube dual mic pre, and the Manley/Langevin Dual Vocal Combo. I own both and have been very happy with them. They are both priced right. The MP2 is a very smooth sounding tube pre with the right coloration. The DVC offers a lot of value for the...

    DAW control surfaces

    Michael first, forgive my poor english. I'm also a nuendo user, with the MCU. As a surface controller, putting aside the ID, wich doesn't ever seem to be ready for the market, and obiously outrageously expensive, I don't think there's a better controller that the MCU + extenders. The level of...

    MXLV69 vs. MXLV77

    I own the V77. I haven't heard the 69, but based on other's opinions, I believe the V77 is less colored that the 69, prolly more on the "detail" side. It is a very sensitive mic. When I just got it, I didn't like it that much, I was expecting something more on the line of the 69. Now, I ended up...

    Cascade M-1 mics any good?

    I just got 2 of these and a VX20 for free too from an order at bayview. Haven't tried them yet, I'll let you know when I do (prolly sometime around this week). I don't have high hopes for them though.

    De-ssing????

    Using the sidechain/compressor method should be prefered as the attenuation will ONLY take place during the "SSS". Using an EQ will be a permanent move, sometimes it works but while minimizing the "SSS" you will be also taking a great deal of other important frecuency stuff, such as the...

    De-ssing????

    It should work, if you're key'in right (settings of your EQ). First,your compressor might have a function to "listen" to the key or side chain. Use that to first identify the frequency where the SSS is more predominant. This should be around 6, prolly 7-8 khz. Find it by boosting your EQ to the...

    Heads Up! Extreme Isolation Headphones

    Yup, I got 3 of these a while ago from MF's at $79 I don't think they're as nice sounding as described, though that's jusy my opinion. I like my AKG's 240 S better. They do offer very good isolation as described, prolly the best I've seen on current HP's in the market. Say bye to HP bleed for...

    Recommend a Really Nice Compressor for me...

    Even though its not cream and butter as opto's and vari-mu etc, I have a Drawner DL241 autocompressor wich has been very valuable in my small studio. Its a clean compressor, with expander and peak limiter onboard per channel (2 ch unit). It goes around $7xx for a 2 ch linkable unit...its not...
