Hi folks: Just switched to OS X and I since I won't be able to use this stuff for a while, so I thought I'd sell it and use the cash for other stuff until they become available for X. The UAD is about three months old. Like new. I registered early so I should be eligible for the discount on...

I'm planning on picking up a used Otari MTR12 to use as a mixdown deck. Was wondering if anyone out there had any experiences with this machine and opinions on it. Is 1/4 a suitable medium for final mixdown. Thnx. -DC

I have a few bucks to make some upgrades to my audio rig. One of the areas I'd like to address is micing acoustic guitar. Currently I'm using an NT1000 or Behringer ecm8000 and a Soundcraft M12 pre with a Washburn D21S. I'm not unhappy with the sound I'm gettting, but the sound I'd like to get...

Hi folks: I've finally made something I'm sort of happy with, so I think I'm ready for some constructive criticism. It's a sort of electronica-ish piece with a clav from my CS6x and some acoustic guitar and electric bass. I recorded it at 16 bits instead of 24 on a motu 828 (I forgot). My bass...

Hi folks: I recently purchased a patchbay to make life easier and I can't get my reverb unit to work properly. It sounds faint and muddy when going through the patchbay. I have (I think) a balanced AP brand patchbay and a Roland SRV3030 reverb. The reverb didn't come with a manual. It has two...
