    Telecasters

    Some interesting and valid comments here.......BUT from my experience (with Tele's), I have a '96 Tele Plus, the version with 3 lace sensors and additional switching. The owner of the major local music store had it shipped up from Fender Aust., just for me and let me take it home along with one...

    Tascam ATR 80-24

    OMFG........like you, that is something I would love to have BUT can't justify. My 1" ATR60 16 track doesn't get used enough, mainly due to not getting time to record these days :mad: :cool:

    Tascam 688 Service Manual?

    I know I printed it out at the time but I think it was only the owners manual but will keep looking..........don't hold your breath though. Cheers.

    Tascam 688 Service Manual?

    The son bought a s/hand 688 way back that has hardly been used since he got it, I'm sure I d/loaded a manual........I'll see if it's still on a back up somewhere and if so you're welcome to it. :cool:

    Acoustic treatment/placement

    It isn't rocket science BUT it does take some understanding.

    Acoustic treatment/placement

    "But i dont have an actual vocal booth, i have some acoustic panels etc and i was thinking would it be good to put the majority of them in a corner and stand in that corner whilst recording the vocals? " That's exactly what is shown in the photo and diagram in post #3...... a portable vocal...

    What is the best budget mic?

    The other thing is the acoustic properties of the room you're recording in, a condenser mic will pick up everything in a room, be it good, bad or otherwise. There is really no fast answer.

    Window Between Control Room and Live Room

    I know you're right, I just had to say what I said. ;) :cool:

    Window Between Control Room and Live Room

    There is a "search" function for a reason............ This thread is a prime example of what ultimately caused the loss of a number of extremely experienced people from "leaving" this forum in general, regardless of which "sub-forum". Out of perverse curiosity and to verify what I said in my...

    Window Between Control Room and Live Room

    Kind of why I asked the questions ;). We were discussing this in this forum many, many years ago and as said density is all important. The common belief was to use two different thickness eg: 10mm and 6mm to avoid sympathetic resonance. As far as angling one or both windows, it was believed...

    Window Between Control Room and Live Room

    A couple of questions.......: What is the glass thickness? What are your reasons for wanting to angle them? :cool:

    Kinda what I was alluding to a few posts back ;) :cool:

    Mackie CR1604-VLZ 16 track mixer for studio use?

    The fact is that the OP's mixer is not really designed for recording purposes so anything is going to be something of a compromise and potentially make things a bit "clunky". If he's determined to go down this path he'd be much better replacing his mixer with a Mackie 16/8 or better yet a...

    Fostex E-16 Mixer setup?

    I run both a Fostex D160 and Tascam ATR 1" 16 track through a 24 channel S/craft Spirit Studio, it has tape send and returns on each channel and works damned, fine, splendid for a "non-professional" facility. A second hand unit may need some TLC BUT it really isn't difficult. Of course there...
