Finally got the desk all set up and the chance to take a few pictures. The lighting isn't great down in the basement but the photo's a fairly accurate. The only thing I think I will add is two drawers for the open slots in the monitors stand. They would be the right size to store headphones. The...

Quick update on the project. I was able to get working on the desk again as the warm weather rolled in. Couple pictures of the doors and the rest of the desk built. I have sprayed some colour and am now applying a poly finish. My hope would be to have it finished by this weekend but we'll see...

Set it up for temporary use as well as to test out whether it needs any adjustments. So far I am really liking the way it feels. RT_Productions, don't wait too long. I am using an old sears table saw I bought for $60 and borrowing the rest of the tools. It's a learning experience but also very...

Just as an update - I have been working on the desk and it has been a learning process. Its seem even over the course of the build I have change my mind multiple times about what future gear I might have and how to build for it. I think that ultimately I will have the skills to modify so I am...

I am in the planing stages of building a production desk and was looking to get some feedback on my current plan. Its intended to be a desk that is comfortable to just sit at and play but also function as a normal desk. I have attached a screenshot of the sketchup. The idea is to have a desk...

So I am looking for a new mic and came across this apex 540 at a music store. The worker told me it was modeled after the neumann tlm 103. He then showed me a clip where they set up both mics side by side and recorded an acoustic. Honestly there was not that much of a difference between the two...

So I am not even sure if this is the correct board to put this thread so if it needs to be moved just let me know. My problem is that I just got a new firestudio project and when i arm the track to record it shows about -42 on the meter and thats without the preamp even being turned up at all...

Bought this from a HR.com member and am now looking to pass it along to another. Everything works fine expect for the little VU meter. It never did work but it has the digital read below which is what you will really use. The light still goes on for it tho so its more just a cosmetic thing...

so I just got my first set of studio monitors and I am having problems figuring out how to hook them up properly. The gear that i have is: computer delta 44 sound card behringer mx 802 A mixer Art Pro Channel M-audio BX5A deluxe monitors and a couple condenser and dynamic mics with all my other...

So i am looking at some tannoy reveal 6d monitors. They are about an hour and half drive away so i wanted to get some opinions to see if its worth going. He says that they are in perfect condition with not a scratch on them and he was selling them for $750 (canadian) as he bought them for $1000...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K00yZdaIHn4&feature=related so i am primarily a guitarist/singer but i have been playing more and more drums lately and really want to put a good kit together which now leads me to the cymbals. i enjoy the type of music shown in this clip (minus the singer) and...

so right now my church is getting a little renovation and there is now more room on the stage to spread out. currently there is a 12 channel snake that reaches the one side of the stage. how would we go about getting some inputs on the other side of the stage using the existing snake (if this is...

so i got into recording a while back but i haven't really spent much time on it because i have put most of my time on playing and performing. i have been using the recording to just get my ideas down but now i am getting my first condenser mic(studio projects b1)and am ready to get some better...

I have a chance at getting a mackie 1604 vlz (not the pro) but am not sure how much to pay for it as it is fairly old. One just ended on ebay and it sold for $450. I have been into recording for less than a year but most that time was spent just putting down rough ideas. I am using an sm58 and...
