I got this mic a couple of months ago but haven't used it much until today. sometimes it doesn't make any sound except a hiss, sometimes it has very low gain and sometimes it works fine. to fix its state from bad to normal it requires a stroke (i know, probably really bad, but by experimentation...

I posted this in another thread a while ago, but this has been really agitating me. I bought a used portastudio 424 and the tape hums at playback. it does not hum when there is nothing on the tape, but as soon as the actual recorded audio starts, it starts to hum. this happens regardless if...

what are the differences between these? I am debating between the Cad Trion 7000 and the Karma K6. any other suggestions are welcome and appreciated.

so I got this mic a year ago knowing nothing about mics. this was my first condenser. I don't particularly hate anything about it but the internet consensus seems to be that this mic is horrible. aside from that, I also just want to try out other mics anyway. so which mic in the same price range...

so I dislike how each mic has a case and would like to keep all of them in one, with their respective foam inserts. does anyone know any places that can make one for a reasonable price?

I thought it would be a good idea to make this thread about anyone interested in inquiring about what equiptment, instruments, and techniques were used in the production of any music anyone is into. I am interested in: Public Image Ltd. - Metal Box (REALLY curious about this one, have searched...

has anyone ordered these from there successfully and are they a-okay?

is this the best 2 channel preamp/DI for the 500 pricerange?

so I am thinking of getting one of these 4 track tape recorders. any suggestions? also, I'm guessing I would need to get an external preamp to put mics through it?

I bought an 8pre and it's been great for about a month but lately it's been getting really bad dropouts. I am on an intel iMac with tiger. I downloaded the Universal Audio Install driver for the second time and it looks like it went from 1.4.6 to 1.4.7. I had an m audio firewire 410 before and...

I know there are probably many threads on this topic but I really couldn't find any. I don't really know anything about ribbon mics or preamps but I am just going after a "warm" sound. there are so many options for both and I just have no idea where to start. I am thinking of spending up to 300...

Now I can buy a used firestudio for 550 (a damn good deal) or the MOTU 8pre. Well, I also was looking at the saffire pro 10 io, I just picked the motu from the apparent praise and problems I have heard about the saffire. What I would like to do eventually though (and if possible) is run 8...

Hello, I have been into digital audio for three years and find myself ultimately unsatisfied with how cold it sounds. My favourite music seems to be mostly done on analog and I much prefer everything else I do in analog (photo, film, vinyl). Now I have NO idea about the analog audio world at...
