    Zoom H2 out of phase

    I'm trying to get a good recording, and have had a bit of help....but it seems that I'm out of phase. It's the default Zoom H2 configuration at 90 degrees in the front of the mic. This is the result here: STE-006.mp3 - File Shared from Box.net - Free Online File Storage I don't know how to...

    1st Stereo Recording

    Just got my new Behringer C2 Mics today, and used one of those with my MXL 990 to try doing some stereo mix with my classical. Here is a link to the files. The ones with "StMixRev" have a bit of Reverb, the others do not. There is also a touch more compression to it for loudness...

    New Mic Sample Test

    I got my MXL 990 today (not the most expensive, but the noise floor is UNBELIEVABLY LOW!! Much better than my Samson C02). I wanted to try it out, so I just threw it on the Mic stand, but it behind the bridge about 12" away and recorded an acoustic guitar and classical guitar. Ran it into my...

    FET Preamp on condenser

    I've sold my Samson C02 Pencil Mic Pair and am getting an MXL 990/991 pair, and I keep seeing FET preamp on alot of mics. My samson mics don't specify, so what is an FET premap and do all condenser mics have them? Thanks! This forum has been a great help in understanding things!

I just wanted to get...

    Pre-amp and 60hz hum

    I've done a bit of searching and am trying to figure out if it's my line or the unit. I've got one of those ART Tube MP Studio....that's going back...the test in the store made it sound great, got it home and there is a buzz...sounds like a ground loop but there is no ground to the plug. My...

    Ribbon vs Condenser

    Okay, I am in the market for a cheap mic, and the MXL R-144 is a Ribbon Mic that is on sale right now for $100. But the only pre-amp I have is on the Zoom R16, and I've heard that you need an awesome pre-amp to record these things well. I used to have Samson C02 Pencil Mic and got decent...
