    Putting some "grunge" in female vocal

    We've got a song where the female vocal changes from ballad like to a louder, harsher sound on the choruses. It tracked well, but that part needs a little "dirt". Any ideas on this? My first thought was to get a cheap tube preamp and run it through that.

    It's baaaack! back in the shop

    Well, thought our Studio 32 was working after the second trip to the shop and the weeks and weeks of diagnosis and waiting for parts that accompanied it's stay. Now it's in for the third time. Used it to record a couple bass tracks, then did a vocal track, using the phantom power for the...

    Studio 32 in the shop

    Well, our Studio 32 began transmitting a loud humming over the monitors about a month ago, and off it went to the local repair shop. They estimate 200-250 to fix. I think the problem is in the master output section. The problem is that each week they say it will be ready the following week, and...

    Cloning 8 tracks at a time.

    Is is possible, using two ADATs to clone a single 16-track song onto new tapes? I know that you can clone 8 tracks at a time from one machine to the other, but if the song to be cloned is in the middle of each of the two existing tapes, and I want to bring two fresh tapes to the mixdown studio...

    your fave mp3 software

    OK, you regulars on this thread know more than I do about mp3s, so I need to pick your big, fat, juicy chess club brains: I've been fooling around with MusicMatch basic, and every time I bring home a CD with a song from our studio, and upload it to MusicMatch, and then rip an mp3 there is an...

    Old Tangent board..should I bother?

    Someone has a used Tangent mixer, a 3216 for a low price, and I wonder if it's just too old to bother with. It's not like I need it....but if someone has strong opinions, I won't stay up worrying about it

    Keyboard Choice: Alesis, E-mu or...?

    My bass player wants a keyboard for our studio. She's looking at the E-mu PK6, the Alesis QS6.2, or whatever you folks can suggest in that 600.00 range. She wants a second one too, and is very much attracted to the Korg microKorg. Any opinions?

    MOTU 24i opinions?

    As much as I would prefer not to buy things at GC, they do have a good price on the MOTU 24i, which I assume is a discontinued unit. Anyone have any experience with these that they'd like to share? Does it work with Windows ME? I'd be using it to dump 16 ADAT tracks into a Pentium 4 PC for...

    What drum machine to buy?

    OK, here's the situation: my bass player has funds for a new drum machine. We already use an Alesis SR-16, but we want something that will allow us to assign every percussion sound (kick, snare, each tom, each cymbal/hi-hat, floor tom, etc) to a different track. I know Yamaha and at least one...

    I'd like to hear what all of you out there use to mic bass guitar amps. AKG D-112? EV RE-20? Any others you like? Would an SM-57 be acceptable?
