I know - not the right forum but I figure most everyone checks in here and I didn't see either of these come up in a search so I figure it's worth posting in the mics section until mshilarious finds the right spot for it :D PSP has their Nitro plugin available at www.audiomidi.com for $10...

So I'm starting a thread that I'll add to over the next few days as I test the gear. I've heard there have been noise issues from some people who've gotten ACMP pre's so I've been listening carefully with that in mind. First up: DI bass on ACMP73 Chain: Hamer American Cruisebass (very...

www.myspace.com/cariboubarbi I don't know how to get an MP3 to sound good on Myspace from all the compression they add - if any of you can give me advice please - please - do. Chain: Vox = SM7 > Pacifica > RNC > Aurora 8 Kick = RE20 > UA M160 > RNC > Aurora 8 (no EQ!!) Snare = i5 > Avalon M5 >...

I've had a Digi 002 for two years now and I was never happy with the sound compared to what I was able to get from an old 20bit ADAT. The AD/DA converters on the 002 are absolutely crap. They are muddy. You will never get punch or a clear high end from it, no matter how much you spend on mics...

Since a Lunchbox post came up in the forum I realized a lot more folks here are using them than I realized. Which 500 series preamps are you using and what specific preamp/instrument combos are working for you (and why)? Details please :)

Had a chance to try the mics this weekend with a friend who sings and plays a Martin OM (28)? For guitar we tried the ACM2, 3, 310 & 6802T, also AKG C414, AT4033 & Blue Baby Bottle. Preamp was Avalon M5. ACM2 was way too dark, borderline useless. ACM3 was better than the ACM2 but also too...

Now that a bunch of us are getting ribbon & tube mics for the first time through the group buy, can anyone who's had a few years of experience with them advise the best way to use & store them? For example: 1. Tube mics are best used upside-down to keep heat from the tube affecting the...

Please respond only if you’ve had experience with multiple OH mics in the past. Here’s what I’ve got now: MXL603 (2) AKG C414uls (paid $350 used) AT4033 (paid $300 used) I’m recording mostly 70’s rock & occasional jazz. I want a natural, non-hyped sound yet at the same time I’m typically...

For harder drummers the ATM25 kick mic is too hot and I'm unable to place it inside the kick and end up placing outside the kick and building a tunnel. The problem with this though is that the beater sound gets lost this way and other instruments end up finding their way back into the mic...

So I’m at a minor fork in the road and am not sure which way to turn on this. Looking for experienced recordists who’ve used at least one of the following to jump in on this - or you at least need to be able to tell the difference between the sound of a RNP & a DMP3 for example – you’re in the...

What drum heads would you recommend for 70's soft rock & classic rock music? The kit is a Tama Stagestar. Mics are i5 snare, ATM25 kick, 57's on toms.

Curious if you've had experience with a Gibson J45 and what you think of it compared to other acoustics in the $1500 range.

I've got a G5 Mac and have been recording all audio files to an external 250Gb hard-drive (not onto the Mac itself). I've begun to clue in to the dangers of keeping everything on a single external drive from reading other people's hooror stories and have today gotten a 1 TB (1000 Gb) hard...
