Having just moved to a considerably wetter environment (Hawaii) I was thinking about getting plastic cases for my reels. I've spent a couple days poking around finding everything else but no 1/2" tape care boxes. Anyone know where I should be looking? Thanks, Chris

Anyone want a double neck? Its an early Ibanez copy of the Gibson model Page plays. Serial E780589 so its after the law suit but no one is going to know the difference from the stage. The "Ibanez" logo on the headstocks is even in script that makes it look a more like "Gibson" if you don't look...

Anyone have some insight into shipping a 5 piece kit to Hawaii? I have a 70's Rogers kit that I want to get over to Hawaii but couldn't fit it on the boat shipment with the rest of the gear. So now I have to box and ship it. Expensive, but I'm trying to figure out the most efficient (i.e...

Oy. I'm moving to the Big Island... anyone have any suggestions how to get my baby... er, my tascam m520 across the ocean? Surely someone here as dealt with shipping something like that. I haven't so I'm a bit baffled. :) -C (P.s. I know some of you might point out that I'm frequently...

...and between moving my studio and needing cash, I have a nice piece of gear on the chopping block. I've enjoyed it quite a bit, but I have a couple mixers full of good pres, so... FMR Audio RNP and RNC in funk logic rack tray with PSU's- $475 shipped to the continental US. New this package is...

Hey everyone, The old Les Paul's frets, especially down below the 5th, are looking pretty ragged... How much should I be thinking of paying for having the frets relaced? Thanks, Chris

OK, gotta crow about this somewhere and this seems like the best place. Picked up a Digitech RP-3 last night. I know, I know- old multi-effects unit, what's the big deal? Shouldn't I be saving money for boutique pedals? $30 is the big deal, and that I have a light weight, compact alternative...

Hey everyone, I also haunt a DV (digital video) BSS and saw this ad for a 001 @ $75+ship pop up. http://www.dvinfo.net/conf/showthread.php?t=66592 That's the lowest price I've ever seen on a 001. It IS technically obsolete and Digi has stopped supporting it in new releases of Pro Tools, but...

Hey everyone, Welp. Rent is going up on my studio space and I'm thinking I may be moving out of it. So... the Tascam 48 is probably going on the chopping block along with the NR units for it- DX-4D's. Anyone know what a reasonable asking price for the 48 would be? I can't find much mention of...

A friend of mine who needs an album recorded has offered me a fun drum kit in trade and I'm trying to figure out a reasonable value for it. I can't wait to get it, throw on some new heads and see how it sounds. :D Its a 5 piece Rogers kit with the butcher block finish. I don't know how to...

I just saw this guy on Ebay: http://cgi.ebay.com/TASCAM-MSR-16-MULTITRACK-16-CHANNEL-2-REEL-RECORDER-NR_W0QQitemZ7373285278QQcategoryZ41480QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem I don't have enough experience to tell what condition the heads are in from the pics, but from the looks of the wear...

Hey, Just when I have a mixer that I *want* on hold and I've got money set aside for it... a Tascam m520 comes along locally for $250. Hell, I figure one can never have too many small format mixers laying around, right? I can't find any details on the 'net, though. I'm trying to find out how...

Hey everyone. Well, I'm learning what I don't know. :O) The lead singer in the band I just joined is a bit shrill at times. She knows it and she's doing what she can to work on that. The other guys in the band keep putting up Beta 58's and 57's for her... I keep trying to tell them she doesn't...

Anyone want to talk about tips and tricks for managing the band while mixing? Here's what I have coming up and why I'm thinking about it. A young, very cool band has already recorded their demo- engineered by a co-worker of mine who is solid but not phenomenal- and I'm going to mix it. Its a...

Hey everyone. I saw this package go up on Craigslist today- I must have missed it the first time around. $625 for a one-owner TSR-8 and M-1516 mixer. Thought I'd pass it along. http://www.ournest.com/stufftosell/tsr8.htm http://www.craigslist.org/sfc/msg/109072274.html C-listers usually...

2 Questions, actually: 1) I set up my mixer to produce a 1K test tone at .316- checked at the RCA inputs of the 48. The meters read what they should (+/- 1dB depending on the channel) and were rock steady. I recorded that to some NOS 407 (with one pass on the same section that I had used to...

I'm afflicted. I have this 16 channel mixer taking up all this room in my home rig and nothing but an 8 track to feed it. Must....feed....the....mixer... :D So- is there anything about the MSR-16 that is known to wear or break? Anything, other than the usual, I should look at? Thanks, Chris

Does anyone know what part I have to hunt down in order to have SMPTE sync hookups on a Tascam 48 or MSR-16? I hope they're the same part- that would make life easier. I don't know what its called, but its the thingy that plugs into the accessory connector. Can you tell I haven't synced...

Hey everyone, In pouring over the pictures of a 388 I've found online... It appears as though the effects returns are both mono. Correct? Kinda bummed... I was viewing 2 *stereo* returns as a minimum. Any way around this? Are the inputs available at mix down for extra inputs? Thanks, Chris

I have a Meek 3Q that I pretty much bought to have a different flavor of pre (even if it wasn't a fantastic flavor) and to see what meek compression is all about. So far I only like it if I can't hear it at all. I said in another thread that it goes from "is it on?" to "TURN IT OFF!!" really...
