    What studio monitors are you using?

    I'm looking for a pair of new nearfield monitors, and so far I've listened to the current Yamaha's, M-Audios, KRK, Tannoy Reveal's, Behringer's, and Equator D5's. Pound for pound and dollar for dollar, I'm leaning towards the active Equator D5's ($300 a PAIR). In the $750 or less a pair group...

    Anyone using R-Mix?

    If so, what do you think? It looks like a pretty cool way (visual) to edit and master music.

    Replacement suspension bands for CAD shock mounts?

    I've got a few CAD condensers, and they've been very good mics. The only problem is that the elastic bands have loosened to the point where the inner clamp touches the spider so that the mics aren't isolated, and they pick up low frequency trash through the stands. I contacted CAD service and...

    Jeeze - just when I thought I was safe...

    Have you guys seen these Xaviere XV-600 and XV-650 guitars that GuitarFetish just released? I've got a hunch these are gonna be the next big thing (like the Squier 51's were). I'm getting G.A.S. pains again... http://store.guitarfetish.com/xaxvandxvgu.html Dang - how can I resist?

    A good friend died Monday morning...

    ...he'd been struggling with pancreatic cancer for about a year. Had lots of chemo and radiation treatments, special vitamins, special diet, and lots of other stuff. He was one of the nicest and most positive people I've ever met, and had turned 56 last May. His wife was diagnosed with colon...

    Do you have a spare Squire 51 you want to trade?

    Do you have a spare Squire 51 you want to trade? I'm looking for one in great condition, with NO problems. Any color is fine. I've got a really sweet "made in U.S.A." (not the current made in Mexico version) SM-57 for trade. It's around 20 years old, in immaculate condition, comes with the...

    Fathead vs. 121 vs. 84 Shootout CD

    Has anyone listened to the Cascade-produced shootout CD, comparing their Fathead to a 121 and an 84? http://www.cascademicrophones.com/cascade_FAT%20HEAD.html Look in the upper left corner for ordering the free CD (free postage too). The Fathead continues to get good remarks from those that...

    Low cost "Drum Mic Sets" - which one is best?

    A question that a lot of newbies ask is "what's the best low cost drum mic set that I can use for recording?" I don't have any experience with these new sets... I use individual mics for everything, the studio workhorses that I've been using for decades, but there seems to be a proliferation...

    Jim Marshall and Kerry King at Winter NAMM 07!

    Jim Marshall and Kerry King (Slayer) were in the Marshall amp display at NAMM on Friday to commemorate the new Kerry King Special Edition all tube stack. It was great to see Jim again, as he's getting on, but both he and Kerry were in excellent spirits at the special edition amp unveiling. The...

    OHG! Someone is knocking-off MSH's mics!

    I stumbled across the following link... these mics look an awful lot like MSH's mics. What gives? I think I'm still going to order some MSH10's when he returns from his holiday vacation next week. http://www.karmamics.com/micro.html

    Urei LA4 compressor - how do they sound, and what are they worth?

    Hi there, I'm quite familiar with LA2A's, but I've never used an LA4. How do they sound compared to the LA2A, and what do you think they're worth? I ran into a guy that says he has two of them, and he wants $750 each for them.

    The new MXL "Cube" LDC?

    So... a new Musician's Fiend (hehe) catalog arrived, and MXL has a new LDC named the "Cube"... instead of a long, rounded body, it has a somewhat short, squarish body. Has anyone tried one of these out yet? Is it anything special? the price is $99.99. Inquiring minds want to know...

    I'm constantly amazed at how bad GC service is...

    It's my own darn fault too. Every time I buy something from them, I tell myself "never again", but I wind up going back for more. Seems like most of the stuff I buy from them is "special order" stuff that they don't have in stock. They're always ready to take my money, but NEVER make good on...

    Anyone know where you can buy ADAT parts?

    I'm looking for replacement idler wheel tires or complete assemblies for the blackface version of the ADAT (both early and late versions of the blackface), and Alesis doesn't appear to sell parts anymore, and MCM electronics is out of stock. If you know of a company or service group that has...

    Upgrading an early blackface ADAT to run v4.03 software...

    Hi there, I got scammed by a guy on eBay (sweet_sound_audio, AKA Jeremy Grant)... He sold me what he said was a working, low hour, v4.03 blackface ADAT. When it arrived, I discovered that it doesn't work... the motion sensor switch is fryed so it won't accept a tape (error 2, it kicks out...
