Yeah Looks like I'll start looking now and pick something up in the New Year, I'm coming round to the idea of getting something that I can use as my main reverb possibly or an alternative to the Waves, UAD plugins, although I love them, I'm thinking if I'm gonna give up some studio real estate...

Thanks guys Thanks guys I think I'm gonna go for a cheaper ebay unit,you see alot around and I wondered why people bought them, I'll get something better if I'm disapointed or people complain about it, I try in general to have as little out board as possible,mostly I have to say becouse of my...

Hi I was wondering if anyone could help me out. I've been recording in my free time for a few years now but only recently started recording other people. I direct monitor when recording and would like to put a splash of comfort reverb on the vocal as it comes out of the card.Just for the...

Yeah the AEA R44CNE is really way too expensive, the electrovoice's I was refering too were not ribbon mics but the 635A's posted by Chessrock earlier. With the budget my friend has I think we're looking at either 635A, or possibly if the stats are similiar earlier versions of it, With Ribbon...

Yeah The ribbon's do look great and would match the whole image of the performer, but I've started reading a few articles on the two Electrovoice's, and have to say they sound great on paper. My first thought was LDC, gonna do a test at home tommorrow with a dynamic/LDC/SDC as these are the...

Don't want to take things off on a tangent, but...... Dudes I've been hunting around Germany/Austria and finding AKG 451 (with CK1)from the 70's, for only a little out of this price range, I'm NOT a drummer, but these where always used in the better venues for live use........... I'd really...

Grounding Lug Ok Sorry about this but what do you mean by 'Grounding Lug' Cheers Surf's Up

Thanks Yeah Sorry about the terminology thing, I meant Grounding, OK I'm gonna try connecting the earth to a water pipe which strangely is close to the amplifier. Have to think about the Copper in the ground thing, but will discuss with the church, thinking they may have something like this...

Hay If anyone could help me it would be much appreciated. OK I have two Amplifiers, a Pre CBS Fender Bassman 50, ('64 I think), and a Selmer Thunderbird 30 (also '64 or '65). I have never had any problems with these two amps, until now....... I have moved to Berlin from London, so my amps...

To Expand On My Behringer Powerplay Pro -XL What I meant by not Terrible. Sometimes I like to Listen to my recordings Really Loud. Sadly The Powerplay adds Some Hiss and White noise etc if you push it to hard. But this is 'Not Terrible' becouse Precise monitoring at High Volume through my...
