    earthworks qtc 40

    Not for vocals I agree. I own a few different Earthworks omnis, and as fabulous as they are, they are too fabulous for vocals, pick up TOO much if that is considered a problem. But, as drum overheads or room mics and acoustic instruments, WOW.

    3 Earthworks TC20's on drum kit test

    Setup Yes, drums had reverb, guitar and bass were Di'd throught PodXT's. Very wet on the guitar as he was experimenting with fusion type tones until the last lead. I agree on the kick and will try a D112. I did not use the earthworks pad. I think the placement of the OH killed the snare and...

    Hows is your HD24 set up with analog boards?

    Going Digital Well I bought a Tascam DM 24 today, still in the box, need to travel so I wont hook it up any time soon. I also got 2 additional ADAT cards so I have 24 channels I/O to the HD24. Now, the question is, should I keep the analog board as well and use the DM24 as a tool? The HD 24 is...

    Mixng Overheads

    Can I get some opinions on how drum overheads are mixed after tracking. My initial feeling is the hi end (Cymbals) but more and more opinions I hear are that overheads are to capture the complete kit. I am using Earthworks TC30's for overheads. I must say they capture the entire kit very well...

    Favorite DI/Modeler for recording guitar?

    PODxt I use a PODxt direct into the board BUT, I use the Line6 editing software on the pc through USB to make my presets and edits. This is the only way I feel in a studio environment to get settings that work, quickly. The on board LED and pages of parameters are too tedious as far as I am...

    Hows is your HD24 set up with analog boards?

    I have an HD24 set up with Mackie 32-8 analog board and I know switching to a Digital Boards would solve a lot of my problems and less patching. Anyone else using an analog board with the HD24?

    Tascam DA-30

    I just got this item used for my studio as another device to store sound. Stupid question, does this device use regular DAT tapes? I put one in and it seems smaller then the carrier size on the deck. It keeps spitting them out. Can someone verify what tapes fit this device and is there a web...
