Selling a pair of Genelec 1030a monitors I picked up pre-owned about 6 months ago. The cabinets have scratches (purely cosmetic) but the Speakers and amps are perfect. Ive taken great care of them and they are an excellent sounding set of monitors. I can send pics showing these speakers to...

lpx, Not only will I write lyrics, but Ill import the song into Cubase and record the vocals. Ive got a few ideas of the direction Ill take it. Check your Private Messages. Ill leave you my email address there. I'd prefer it if somehow I could get a less compressed version of the track. But Ill...

Cool drum tracks and nice production. It just needs a good singer on it. :)

NO SERIOUSLY! That mic does looks like a dildo, thats the first thing I thought... kinda disturbing.

Everybody is going to reccommend you the RNP. Stands for Really Nice Preamp. It is a 2 channel preamp that is under $400 (on ebay) or $475 new, and will be the best bang for your buck in the under $500 mic pre market. And yes you will hear a difference between it and the Mackie pres. I was going...

M-Audio Firewire 410 and E-mu 1212m Converters I guess I should ask this here since no one is responding in the other thread I started: I have an M-Audio Firewire 410. I am considering selling it and buying the E-mu 1212m for its "protools HD" converters. Has anyone had experience with both of...

Rev E got it right. Thanks for clarifying. There is a transformer on the output.

I built my own PC. It has only crashed 2 times in the 8 months I have had it. Its much more stable than any of the computers I have used that were built by dell or compaq. It seems to me that the always skimp on everything. Better to learn how to build your own. Plus its fun. :)

I have an M-Audio Firewire 410. I am considering selling it and buying the E-mu 1212m for its "protools HD" converters. Has anyone had experience with both of these units? Is there going to be an audible difference between the 2 units? Both have all the features I need so the only issue is...

The DRS is transformerless

I suck at soldering, but I did like the Idea of renting some pres and mics at Mic Works. I'm still torn between getting the Phoenix DRS-1 or saving a hell of a lot of money and getting something cheaper. The DRS-1 is gonna be $1070 shipped, so I wouldnt have anymore money to buy an RNC, but I...

How important is it to use a compressor when recording vocals. I know "it depends" but on a fairly descent singer who can control his voice is it really critical or can you live without it?

Bubbagump, I was wondering if you could tell me what mics and pres and other gear you used to record the song "worth dying for." It sounds pretty well recorded to me. :)

Thanks for the ideas guys. I am leaning toward buying a RNP on ebay and also buying a RNC. That should only cost me $500-$600 for both. I can just practice making things sound as good as possible with those and one day Ill pick up a Phoenix DRS-1 and really have a good sound. I was going to buy...
