I'm interested in building a Fender Vibratone-style rotating speaker cabinet (same as Leslie 16/18). Basically, it is a single speaker with no crossover, etc, and the drum rotates on the vertical plane instead of horizontal. Any ideas?

Lots of "classic" 60s albums were mixed in mono...Pet Sounds, Sgt. Pepper, Kinks Village Green, etc...everyone seems to want that sound, why not mix it like they intended back in the day?

I think this is how I'm going to record my next album. I have a Tascam 388 8-track reel to reel/mixer, a Delta 1010, a bunch of plugs and no outboard except an RNC. Instead of tracking to tape, then dumping into digital for editing/mixing, I'm considering tracking/bouncing/mixing all analog and...

Any tips or suggestions? :)

Well, I'm in the market for a cheap, Fendery amp that can be used for guitar and occasional bass. I want to keep it low-wattage so I can crank it without waking the neighbors. Anyway, between a Fender Vibrochamp with 8" speaker and a Silvertone 1483/1484 with 10" or 12" speakers which would you...

I want to get some "free piano recording time" in my uni's practice rooms. They are small and sound crappy but I figure I can get something decent. I need suggestions on a portable 2+ track recorder with pre's that would work in this situation. Sound quality isn't a big deal; I think a 57 will...

Right now I'm using a Tascam 388 to record and I'm very pleased with the results. I'm mixing in the box, btw. I'm planning on buying a Sytek pre and maybe a small mixer. My question is, should I ditch the 388 and get a 1/2" or 1" 8 track? The mixer/monitor section is pretty crappy and I don't...

I am a big fan of Creedence Clearwater Revival and, of course, John Fogerty's voice and style. Any tips (vocal or recording) on getting that crazy raspy sound?

Sansamp, Line 6, etc...what are your experiences?

I've got a Delta 1010 and I've never bothered to change the settings from 16/44. Just wondering if, since I can, should I be using the card to its full potential at 24/96?

FS/FT: Tascam 388 1/4" 8 track reel to reel/mixer Less than 50 hrs use, everything works great, Ch8 VU light bulb doesn't work Comes with manual, take-up reel, and custom case (not road case quality but is handy for storage or moving) - $600 I have some other stuff that could be sold together...

Links available at www.theshakeups.com/listen.html I'm not really looking for feedback on a specific song, but any words of encouragement or suggestions you might have would be appreciated. Feel free to just listen to one song if you want. Enjoy!

Hi, I've got 16 4x2 custom acoustic panels for sale. I bought them a few months ago from modularacoustics.com. They are all in great shape, thin natural finish and grey fabric covering. These panels sound FANTASTIC and perform as well if not better than realtraps for much less. Hanging hardware...

These will be going to everyone's favorite auction site in a few days if I don't get any buyers: Symetrix 525 compressor/gate --- exc. condition, one knob doesn't fit on a pot correctly, not a big deal - $85 Delta Lab Effectron 1024 digital delay --- a little rack rash, but otherwise...
