I've just replaced my old twin sync'd Boss BR1600 recording rig with a Focusrite 18i20 / Reaper combination and I'd mothballed the Boss machines. On that old setup I'd gone to two midi sync'd Boss units a decade ago because one just didn't have enough inputs to track a full band with acoustic...

After 15 years and numerous singles, EP's and albums my old midi sync'd pair of BR1600's recording rig has finally been replaced. Good machines they were for what they were. I'm not selling them though, they have just gone into the 'closet of darkness' to join the other pensioners.

I've been away for a while. 7 years it seems since I last picked up an instrument, pressed the record button or said anything on the forum. Thanks to Chili and Steeno I've managed to recover my long forgotten registration and get back on. Great to see some of you analogs still here from back in...

Picked up a little Fostex R8 off ebay the other day. It's in really good nick and quite neat. There's no 388's around these parts Johnnie so this is as close as I can get. I've hooked it up to one of the live sound Alto 4 bus mixer's I've got and it seems to work just fine. I've got a bit of...

recording this on a porch out in the countryside last week... '52 Gretsch. Just four mikes using the Glyn John's method. Unbelievable sounding kit, great recorded sounds & a great player as well. All brushes for this album, left handed & playing open hand. Did sound for them at their thank...

Whilst recording a friends country boogie band's new acoustic album in the country last week, outside at an old farm house.. A local came down from the hills to check it all out... Friendly little chap... At least there's no bears in Oz. :)

Every Thursday night we go 'round to Burgler's to drink beer, talk shite and have a bash in his basement. You never know how many or exactly who are going to turn up. Any number from three to ten. Last Thursday we had six and a half (Burgler's wife came down and did vox on a set) and I took my...

I've been mucking around with this for weeks. I've finally decided I don't have the pipes, chops or songsmithing to pull this kind of thing off. Trailer Park Angel Fuck it, it's only noodling around in the attic on some digital portastudios. Move on.

Bugger tape or vinyl, I'm going here next... video I think? :rolleyes:

Last night we did another live to 1/4" inch two track, two tune recording at Goose for our next Lonely Few cassingle. Today it was time to ah, well, erm, "master" probably isn't quite the right word for it... The Revox is playback, the desk is merging to mono, the Otari is 15ips tape delay, and...

Here's the first thing I've attempted on my sync'd pair of Boss BR1600's up in the attic since I got the second one and sync'd them up. Usual one man band original thingie from me. What's Going Down :)

Greetings friends. You may know that like a lot of you I have some digital kit as well in my home setup - 2 midi sync'd Boss BR1600's; Sort of obsolete now but they go quite well for what I do and after a lot of experimentation I've got a drum sound that I'm quite happy with using the Glyn...

Arrggghhh, there's hundreds of them. They're everywhere. And different types as well, C12's, C30's, C60's, Type I and Type II's. Even the mouser can't cope... What on earth can I do :eek: But wait.... there is a cunning plan to deal with them :cool:

Anyone know if the MF-P01 has a speed trimmer on it's main board and if so which one it is? Ta in advance. :)

Just wondering if anyone's got any helpful advice on this? Next month I'm off to do a live recording of a five piece country blues band going all acoustic in some yet to be decided country location over a three or four days. The plan is to have them all lined up in the same room, maybe in a...

I'm about to upgrade my no name kick dynamic to one of these two. I'm looking for a faithfull reproduction of the actual kick plus occasional use for male vocals. Mostly it'll be used to record low volume kick in old school jazz, folk & blues styles. Both'll do it as far as I can see and both...

I was wondering if any of you could help me midi up the keyboard I got for Christmas?... If I can't solve it I guess I'll just have to use in on the next all acoustic four track one mike Portastudio ep? :o

I've been thinking about doing this for a while now. It's been possible for a number of years but not really worth it until the 2nd hand price of these machines came down. With them to be had now in the $US500-$700 price range it now starts to get feasible. One midi cable later and they're all...

Season greetings friends. I've had a lot of fun in '09 and it's been good to be involved with all you crazy cats. Here's the recorded output so far. I'm quite happy with all this lot... 1. "Fast Food" mono cassette one mike Lonely Few cassette recording in the rehearsal room on the Marantz...

Here we are with the last 'obsolete and unloved' all analog cassette media release for 2009 that I've just finished making. David Carter's live to two track solo album called 'Small Fires'. Recorded on the Revox PR99 and assaulted with various helpings of spring reverb and tape echo. All hand...
