Hey everyone - I'm in need of some help finding a 4 ohm 10" speaker somewhere online in the US. I play through an Ampeg SVT 410HLF ported cab and I've got a blown speaker ten days before a gig. I'd love to have this covered under warrantee but it's going to take four to six weeks for that to be...

Hey Everyone. I've got a MOTU 896HD FW audio interface which has been awesome for me. Unfortunately, it's just sat in my rack for the last few months since my band got picked up and is in need of a good home! I bought it a year and a half ago for $1300 and would like to get $900 for it. I am...

Hey everyone. I just got a new PA for my band's rehearsal space. The room is small, and we're loud, roughly 14x18 feet. So we bought a pair of Mackie SRM-450 active speakers. VERY nice, very clear, but I can't even crank them without that disgusting, frightening, horrible feedback that we all...

Hey everyone. I had a question that I've been meaning to take care of for some time. My group and I are fed up with our hokie POS rehearsal monitor setup. For the past year and a half we've just run vocals through my DAW, into the headphone amp, and cranked the volume till the headphones were...

Hey everyone. I just finished my first session in a commercial studio with my band. We used those Harvey Gerst moreme headphones and I really liked the isolation they provided. Anybody know where I can buy these things? Thanks.

Hey everyone- In about three days, my group and I are set to go into a studio in Atlanta with our producer Jeff Tomei (smashing pumpkins, jerry cantrell, matchbox twenty) to record our 5 song studio debut EP. We've been doing the home recording thing for about four years, so the whole concept...

So I just replaced my Korg Triton 61-key with a Roland Fantom X8 88-key. The thing weighs atleast 110 pounds... So I popped it on the lower tier of my Ultimate Support Apex stand and what happens, it creaks, cracks, and breaks... Luckily me and my brother were still keeping our hands under the...

Hey everyone. I've been a die hard fan of the Shure Beta 58 for a while but after recording with a couple of new vocal mics, I really have found that my voice shines on a more neutral sounding, slightly midrangy mic. To note, I use my Blue Baby Bottle in studio and get amazing results with my...

Okay, heres the deal... about 5 years back I bought a Korg Triton thinking it would cover all my needs as far as live performances go. Now, after time has passed and my musical tastes/needs have changed, I have found it to be quite a let down. My main gripe is that it only has 61 keys. The...

Hey everyone... I've got a quick question to run by everyone... I've read some threads that are aimed towards helping make the toms in tracks sound better, but I haven't found one yet that was specific to 4 mic setup, or any setup not involving the close micing of the toms. I use the...

Hey everyone. I've got an amazing opportunity to do an intership at Sterling Sound (www.sterlingsound.com I believe) in NYC this next month where I'll be spending a good amount of time with their president as well as a couple of their top mastering engineers. I've been doing the...

Hey everyone. I've been rereading a lot of books and articles online about the fundamentals of audio i.e. wave properties, phase, distortion, etc. Just trying to make sure that if there was anything I skipped a couple years back when I was starting out, I learn it now. One thing I came across...

Hey everyone. I just picked up a new Focusrite TwinTrak Pro two-channel pre the other day. I've got a few different mics that I plan on running through it, mainly being my Groove Tubes gt-55, my BLUE Baby Bottle, my Oktava MK012s, and my SM57/58s. The pre has an impedence setting on it and from...

Hey everyone. I'm currently running all my audio through my MOTU 896HD's Pre's straight into my G4. I've got a couple of decent enough mic's that seem to satisfy my needs (Groove Tubes GT55, Oktava Mk012s, Shure Beta Mics, etc.) but I'm looking for a way to upgrade my signal chain for the least...

Hey everyone.. I'm starting to beef up my mic collection (which at this point is very minimal...) > SM57 > SM58 Beta A > Groove Tubes GT-55 LDC > Pair of Oktava MK-012 SDC I've decided to start with a new LDC to add to my locker considering that vocals is something I tend to struggle with. My...

Hey everyone! I've been using my Groove Tubes GT-55 large diaphragm for quite some time and definitely like it but I'm curious to see for myself if any of the characteristics my ears have noticed are confirmed by the frequency response graph you often find with microphones. Alas, the...
