Hi, friends... I own an old Sennheiser MD421-U-5 dynamic mic, serial number in the 14,000 range. Works perfectly and looks like it is brand new. However, the clip was broken and lost years ago. I'm thinking of bringing it out of retirement and putting it to use as a guitar cab mic. I need...

Hi, folks. I've already purchased both the "Really Nice Preamp" (RNP) and the "Really Nice Compressor" (RNC) from FMR Audio after doing a lot of research here and on gearslutz.com, among other places. I am really pleased with both units and so far I feel like I've made good choices by adding...

Okay, I've got a fairly powerful PC that I built for my studio. Q6600 2.4 GHz quad-core CPU, 8 GB RAM, GeForce 8800 GT video card, ABit IX38 Quad-GT mobo, etc. I plan on purchasing an E-MU 1616M PCI audio interface/soundcard. Currently have a registered copy of Sonar 7.1 Producer Edition that...

Since I've spent the last 24 hours or so perusing the posts on this fine forum, I thought it appropriate to stop and say hello and introduce myself. I'm getting ready to FINALLY set up my home recording studio, and I'm sure that it will be a while before everything is working correctly, with...
