I'm thinking about getting a bass. I mostly produce electronic/"intelligent dance" music and I want a deep, slightly growling, leviathan type of sound. I also want that low B note and I will literally never play anything in upper registers. Plus, I don't find 5-strings particularly...

I have the seemingly ubiquitous Linksys Wireless-G WRT54G router. The PC's are fine, but I'm having all kinds of problems getting a Mac notebook to connect to the internet. I can get it to connect to the wireless network, but it always says it cannot find an IP address when trying to get...

The good folks at Vintage King hosted us along with Shadow Hills and Korby mics. Feast your eyes on some of the fat assed gear! Thomas (don't know why the [img] function is turned off?)

Mine is in the mail. Can't wait! :D

My wife did something to the home computer and now we can only open one instance of IE at a time. If we try to launch another IE window, it closes the old one. Same thing when right clicking "Open Link in New Window". I can launch multiple instances of other applications, including Office...

Just wanted to let you all know that Fresh Air is doing "Hip-Hop week". Lots of interviews this week with the pioneers. http://www.npr.org/templates/rundowns/rundown.php?prgId=13

Let's say, hypothetically, that you came across a nearfield monitor that fulfilled all of your nearfield monitor fantasies. It was sharp, sexy, and promised to service you like no other nearfield had before. What would be the maximum price per pair at which this monitor would exit your dream...

Ok, now that the charade has gone on for about 25 years or so, isn't it time that we finally admit that amplified acoustic guitars sound like complete ass? I mean, who in their right mind actually likes the sound of a bridge pickup? Decades of "perfection" and they still make a guitar sound...

I posted DIY circuit schematic on John Sayers forum which allows you to soffit mount a free standing speaker (i.e. near field). You can read the details here: DIY Filter for Flush Mounting Freestanding Speakers Hope you find it useful!:D Thomas

Much respect to this forum, but does anyone know of a good forum for pro bass players? Some of you may recall a while back when I was knocking around the idea of developing a high-end bass amp. The consensus here seem to be that most people couldn't provide much feedback on the merits of my...

Just wanted to let you all l know that I've developed a couple of spreadsheets to help you see the impact of "Wall Bounce" reflections on your nearfield monitor's frequency response. They are freely available for download here at John Sayers Recording studio design FORUM. Hope you fine...

I've come up with a very easy Do-It-Yourself project called the Killatone (TM). It's a new and improved rendition of the Auratone concept . You'll find plans and pics here: http://johnlsayers.com/phpBB2/viewforum.php?f=12 If you're not familiar with the Auratone, it was basically a cheap...

Hi all. I haven’t been around much these days because I'm spending every spare moment trying to launch my speaker business. I was hoping those of you who have, or plan to build, professional or semi-professional studios could help me with my business plan by answering a quick survey? I need...

Ok, I'm contemplating the next big step. Save for my MS2000R, I work almost 100% inside the computer. I think I'm developing some strong skills in this medium and I don't see any reason to change at this point. Not to mention, it's a far more portable and cheaper than owning tons of...

I just posted a thread and mp3 regarding my guitar playing. I'd appreciate your feedback. https://homerecording.com/bbs/showthread.php?threadid=66510 Thanks! barefoot

I am a mediocre guitar player. My rhythm playing is pretty good, though I could never come up with anything original, and my soloing always sucked - totally uninspired. But I could manage to pull off note for note solos I learned from tablature. I've always had ideas and I would try to come...

Is it ok to float the common pin negative relative to the shield in a phantom power scheme? I want to build a portable battery powered mic preamp. I have 4 very powerful compact rechargeable 12V batteries. The simplified circuit layout is shown here: The amplifier will run from +/- 24V...

Like one of these? http://www.panelsteelbuildings.com/s-series.html Seems like it would be strong, easy to build, and the shape could have some acoustical advantages. barefoot

Ok, I was playing with my new Acid 4.0 on the train ride to work today - midi sequencing, virtual instruments, and all that fun stuff. Here's the outline of a song I quickly sketched out. http://www.nowhereradio.com/barefoot/singles "Pop song?" The drums are stock loops, the editing is...
