    Extracting Vocals

    Not sure if this is the correct section or not, but I will blast it out there anyway hoping that it is. Due to a very long, tiring story I have a stereo MP3 where the vocals are clear (and centered), but the background music (somewhat stereo) is muddy, crummy, aggrevating, terrible, and about...

    How to Run a Studio

    I'm already wondering where the time went - seems just yesterday he'd sleep cradled in my one arm and now he's a 50lb athelete with long hair chasing girls. Actually, they mostly chase him. Speaking of keys.... my son's been driving since age 3 (2008): Actually, the gang was following...

    Electrical Help Needed

    Currently, I have four APC SmartUPS 1400 units, each on it's own 15A single pole breaker, those breakers in a subpanel. The subpanel is fed 240V @ 30A, and in the main panel there's a double pole 30A breaker. At some point I decided to install a 20A 3-way switch between one of the UPS units...

    raw 24-ch snake cable

    I have 200' plus feet (continuous) of Marshall Electric 24-ch snake cable leftover from when I built my recording studio a few years ago. When I purchased, it had the same specs as Mogami and was significantly less costly. Each of the 24 channels are individually shielded, jacketed, and...

    Fitz - snake cable

    I emailed you twice about the snake cable you wanted... finally... but you didn't reply. I presume you have what you need or not interested? If not that's AOK, it did take me a year to dig it out and measure it. Anyway, email or PM me if interested. If not, again that's AOK and my fault...

    Stairwells suck

    To further avoid desoldering old patch bays... (I know, I know...) I decided instead to remodel the stairwell under the vocal booth... something that's annoyed me for over a year and finally, I get to give it a basic makeover. My studio has two access points... the side door(s) next to the...

    First, some necessary things... Thank you to those who expressed an interest, both publically and privately. While I'm more than happy to do this, time is also limited so I'm certainly happy I'm not wasting my time. This is offered for "informational purposes only". While I have assembled...

    Tascam MA-AD8 (tdif / analog converter)

    Now that I have an Alesis AI-3, I no longer need the Tascam MA-AD8 unit. This unit has pre-amps similar in design to the TM-D8000 and TM-D4000 which are fairly nice pre's actually. The unit wasn't used all that much and it's in nice shape, except for minor rack rash and even that is fairly...

    I Hate Wall Warts!

    Nothing is worse than finding a stuffed 2'x1'x1' box with tangled wall warts. Stuffed to the point where the box falls apart while you're carrying it down steep, narrow attic stairs. Grrrrrrr. But at least I found all the wall warts for my gear :D

    Snaking Snake Cable!

    I finally had a huge block of time to which I could spend snaking the 24-TRS audio cable. The first step is to make a spool holder, because rolling this unweildly beast around the driveway just wouldn't be fun. Two sawhorses, a section of scrap "black pipe" and some clamps, and I made a loud...

    Supersized Wiring Staples!

    After I designed the layout of my studio, and built it all out, the time comes to start the wiring. I had peeked into the eaves of the house behind the short wall, behind the console table. The floor joists to lengthwise to the room, which is good. As I started channelling into the garage's...
