The Replacement Thread for "Why must my mono songs blah, blah, blah..."

[XLR]

Post your satire here instead of bumping the other thread that has as its first post - the one most reader see first - music that, at the very least, should not be being promoted in "The Rack" forum.

Also, it allows me to lock the thread any time I see Jordan online, then unlock it when he's gone. Just kidding.

/no he's not/
/yes he is/
/are too/
/are not/






No, seriously dudes... post pics here of gear you use.

And discuss mono vs stereo. I'll start. I had mono in high school.


























...some of my rack stuff:

[WhiteStrat]

Good idea. I publicly vow to never post again in that morbidly appealing train wreck.

[XLR]

And make your posts really long, with lots of pictures and stuff, so that when anyone dopey does show up and post, like songs and stuff that should be in the mp3 clinic, it'll be lost in the 100s of pages this thread will become.

Pics of your gear would be cool too.
































I almost forgot to mention... I have some new songs I'm going to post in the thread that I recorded this morning while my head was enclosed in a plastic bag sniffing spray paint. You'll love 'em! They're hits!

Me too. Until Jordan posts another demonstration of how to be as obtuse as possible.

You know, we should be able to contact the Moderators and tell them to lock that thread because it is now completely "off topic".

Anyone besides me want to do that?

Gear pics:



I doubt your huff-tunes compare to the groundbreaking revolution of sound that comes from using all my gear simultaneously! #1 HIT! GUARANTEED!

[PhilGood]

Wait, I have another idea!


(somebody please still contact the mods)

Personally I think mod intervention is kind of sissy.

Better to do it ourselves this way.

[PhilGood]

I don't think its sissy at all. That's how any standard professional forum operates. The cave should be the only exception. Klaus Heine moderates his forum so tightly he will edit and delete parts of posts as they com out to keep them from violating his ground rules.

I don't think its too much to ask that the equipment forums should stay on topic. This one is clearly more appropriate in the MP3 clinic and is an obstacle for the rack forum.

[JordanD]

this is cruel!

That should have been dealt with 25 pages ago in that thread.

[XLR]

Here's more of my gear.

[TyphoidHippo]

pssssssst. *cough*cough*Lock it!*cough

[XLR]

Here's some stuff that I let my guitar students use to learn about recording during lessons.

I know.



























Didn't want to lock out the other guys on at the same time.

That silver mixer looks awfully familiar. I'm pretty sure the mixer I give singers/musicians to adjust their monitor mix is the 12 channel version of that...eurorack MX? And are those mogami/amphenol cables I see? Fancy!

















This is working fine, anyway

[blazingstrings]

Hey I found the audio processor that JordanD used on all his tracks.


















But seriously a gear pic:

Indeed, but the cars can already be piled up by the time someone finally calls the highway patrol.

Yes, it's my beloved Behri mini mixer. Works fine for its use there. The pre's are kind of edgy but I don't use them... just use the mixer for, well, mixing - recorded tracks, line out from guitar amp, drum machine, verb and delay, etc. I've got a Tascam US122 going into another laptop (not pictured) in the teaching studio that's used for its pre's, which are pretty good as budget pre's go. A line out from that to the Behri makes for good live mic'd sound too when I need that in lessons, which is rarely.













Please note the FMR Really Nice Compressor at the bottom of the pile on the right. I use it there on supernice mode but w/very high ratio and threshold to protect the speakers in the studio, which are just small home stereo speakers.

[PhilGood]

I've got an older Ramsa 20 channel board that has two bad channels. It still does the job for me. I don't know for sure, but my ears think the pres in it are pretty good! Sometimes I wonder if I should even bother with some of the outboard pres that I have.

Anybody else ever used Ramsa stuff?
