    Trump on Trial!

    immigrants to America and all those people at the border trying to get in to America, they all believe America is ALREADY GREAT! Why is it only Americans that don’t believe that?

    Yeah, you’re right. He probably has a better chance of hooking up with Giles Martin. :D 🤣

    I guess you haven’t seen, Get Back, by Peter Jackson or any of his other work. AI is making the formerly impossible, possible. Never say never. 😉

    And today's American mass shooting....

    You Because kids can buy guns the minute they turn 18. If that 18 yr old young man ran into Robb Elementary with a knife, would 400 cops stand back while he stabbed 27 children and 2 teachers? Would any cop have stood back and waited? The M-16 (AR-15) was the deciding factor!

    And today's American mass shooting....

    We had an assault rifle ban and it expired without being renewed. Profits from assault rifles and bullet sales outweighed public safety.

    And today's American mass shooting....

    We also have a record rise in Americans suffering from depression. At the same time politicians are pointing the finger at mental health as the cause, they’re cutting funding for mental health treatment. Our Governor, Greg Abbott, complained that we were #2 in gun ownership behind California...

    If only sharing ceiling with neighbor, is it best to focus most energy on treating ceiling?

    Because you’re in a temporary residence, which you don’t own, opting to mix with professional monitoring or reference headphones is your best option, IMO. While not ideal, it’s a consistent listening environment where you can mix songs, with the aid of proper headphones and headphone calibration...

    And today's American mass shooting....

    What the founding fathers did envision were British soldiers and/or sympathizers trying to take back Colonial territory, hence they were okay with well regulated militias. Was there State Police back then? No. The country was young and vulnerable, unlike today. I had an AR-15 in 1971 issued to...

    And today's American mass shooting....

    Kids today are raised by violent video games by parents who are only happy to have the electronic babysitter. Kids enjoy the shoot ‘em up games so much, as they get older their fascination turns to real guns and real shooting. The connection between violence in games, movies, and TV shows should...

    Considering getting a Shure SM27 for recording my baritone vocal range.

    Sorry for the late response. Sudden medical issues have had me down. PROBLEM: As for the P420, I ran into a problem right away—not with the mic, but with the Phantom power in my setup. I had all my USB devices, including a 2-channel USB powered audio interface, plugged into a 4-port powered hub...

    AKG lists the P420 as an instrument mic, but I think it sounds good on vocals. See my reply to the post after yours where I share more details.

    So apparently - folks at Fox News were not being honest with their viewers

    I’ve asked new legal immigrants to America from all over the world and overwhelmingly they say they don’t watch American news; they watch and trust BBC News. And they tell me that where they came from they don’t discuss politics like we do in America. They could be arrested or hauled off in the...

    So apparently - folks at Fox News were not being honest with their viewers

    What are you paying attention to, besides Fox Entertainment and mass marketing sites spewing hatred, racism, and anti-semitism to divide and conquer the “peasants”, all under some self-made umbrella of “patriotism and self-righteous religious ideology”. United WE Stand AND Divided WE ALL Fall...

    Considering getting a Shure SM27 for recording my baritone vocal range.

    Oh my, Rob. That’s terrible. So sorry for your loss. Bear with me as I wait a week for my next check and order another mic stand. Thanks for the nudge. I need another mic stand now, anyway.

    Considering getting a Shure SM27 for recording my baritone vocal range.

    Sure, Rob, I‘d be happy to make a comparison recording. I’ll post it in this thread in a reply to you for all in this thread to check out. Give me a few days. I’m retired but I have my hands full caring for my COVID Long Haul lady and her dog. She was already handicapped before she caught...

    Considering getting a Shure SM27 for recording my baritone vocal range.

    I can definitely recommend the AKG P420 to you, Rich. The only caveat is the power source. When I first plugged the P420 in it had no proximity and it just sounded weak. Knowing it needed 48V phantom power, I immediately turned my attention to the power source of my USB powered audio...

    Considering getting a Shure SM27 for recording my baritone vocal range.

    I bought an AKG P420 at a great sale price and a Shure Popper Stopper to go with it. They’re both working well for me. At 1/5th the cost of a Neumann TLM102, it was too good a deal to pass up.

    Hi All!

    Quick introduction. A Duck Duck Go search result brought me to this site today. Looks like a good site with a lot of activity and varied knowledge/experience. I’ve been primarily a weekend warrior musician all my life, with a few tours but mostly local gigs. I’m retired, so point me to the...
