    Need Some Quick Advice on Sound Absorbtion Panel Placement

    Hey guys, Just built some sound panels. Using 4" fiberglass (well actually 2 - 2" boards sandwiched together). Then built a small "structure" to put them up near the ceiling. I'll be honest I kinda just built them not knowing what I was getting into. They sure do make things dead, and I...

    Choosing the right congas

    Hey there, I'm in the market to buy some congas! I'm a percussion player, so I do know some of the brands but for the most part I've been loyal to LP. My next purchase of congas doesn't seem to be as cut and dry as everything else, especially cause they're so much $$$. Currently I'm looking...

    Setting up a SUB with my PROTOOLS rig

    I can't figure it out for some reason... I have a 003 Rack and I want to buy a powered sub and connect it to the 003. But how would I even go about doing this? The 003 has main outs which my monitors are hooked up to now. The only thing I could think of is the fact that the main outs...

    Couple of mixes that could use some home recording critiques

    I posted these songs a while back, but since then I have upgraded to protools and completely remixed the songs. I have listened to them to death, and honestly the only one I feel 95% satesfied with is "Mice." So maybe you guys could tell me what I need to do to really tune these songs up for...
