Couple of questions- 1) When making a master for replication, what is the importance of using a higher-end, stand alone, drive, vs. a standard run-of-the- mill pop it in your chassis cdr? 2) Does it matter what software you use for the burn? 3) How does disc quality come into play? are there...

OK, so i have not worked with ADATs in about 4 years, and I got an XT-20, and it was working great. Then some hiccups started happneing and so I thought, well, I'll clean the heads. I happened to see on Musicians Friend that they had a head cleaning tape for ADATs. I called them up and asked...

OK, so audiophiles are always buying various "tweaks" to increase the quality of their recordings. sitting your various pieces on brass cone points, using maple platforms, putting heavy weights on top of equipment to dampen the nasty vibrations, etc. one of the brands I am more familiar with is...

I have a black face adat and i'm getting a Tascam TM-D1000 mixer this week. the tascam has the TDIF digital inputs, and i am going to get the tascam if-tad Lightpipe to TDIF converter. here is my (multi-faceted) question- How will I be able to ensure word accurate sync? The TM-D1000 has a word...

I'm looking to get a mixer that is really only designed for mixdown. I have several mic pre amps and a couple compressors and EQs that i want to use as my front end, and get a mixer simply for mixdown. Is ther a mixer out there that does not have mic pre-amps? I would rather not spend $$$ on...

ARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!! That was the sound my client made yesterday when, after a great take, we listened back, and lo and be hold, IT was back. I thought I had gotten rid of IT. IT is this annoying, 1/2 second long stuttering that shows up every now and again in the...

So i'm sitting here looking at my closet door and a thought crosses my mind. very dangerous thing. It's a wooden accordian style door, you know, it folds up in half when you open it, and this one has downwards facing louvers. What if i placed a set of these doors on each wall to the left and...

i got excited. then let down. big time. mainly because i'm an optimist and a bit of a fool. :D i saw the ad for the Royer R-122 phantom powered ribbon mic (for a long time an oxymoron) that they tout as "a Ribbon microphone for everyone". On their website they tout how you can "use...

I have Cubasis for hte Tascam 428, and i've had some real problems with monitoring correctly. Sometimes i can hear what's coming through live, sometimes i can't. and i can't seem to boost the recorded tracks enough so that the overdubber can hear them, the live track is to powerful and i cant...

How should i treat this room? In front of the couch is the "control room" behind and to the side of the couch is the "tracking room" and the vocal booth is the iso booth. I have 24 1x1 Auralex foam panels, adn 12 1x1 curved diffusers. i can build absorber boxes, but where should i place them...

Does anyone know if there are any "better than the average" windscreens out there? i have a pair of Octava MC012's, and i did an outdoor sound reinforcement gig with them, and even with some stock radio shack windscreens they were howling. the windscreens fit perfectly, and i backed them off the...

Fellas and gals- I'm going to be doing a remote recording/ live sound for a full orchestra/ choir, which is nothing too different for me, but this will be OUTSIDE! I've got my windscreens primed and ready to go, but i'm concerned about the mic stands falling over if it's windy. They will be...
