I do much more condensers than dynamics. In the material below, except for the song from 1976 or so was about 90% condneser mics. Condnesers, as far as I am opinionated, is much more accurate than a dynamic. Let me know what you think of the mic sounds. All songs were recorded LIVE during a...

Thanks for the complement. It was a good time because the concert started with a band out of Oregon, then went to Brian Wilson, then to Joan Jett. A fun time was had by all. My favorite was Brian Wilson and his pix, if interested, are available here: brian_wilson Photo Gallery by Richard King...

Well, I don't know what not nice thing you said, but, I think he did ok for a 96 year old and a band he never rehearsed with. The audio (which I had nothing to do with) came straight off the camera and is not good. If you want to hear the band as I recorded (including a video) a while back...

Been a while since I've been here, but I haven't done analog in years. I do have a video (digital) that was recorded last week. Other than bringing in the guest artist on 5 songs for the gig of the band "Voodoo" from Vero Beach here, I had nothing to do with the recording. I thought you guys...

The guitar player played on a ton of old analog recordings and joined this band on a few songs with no rehearsal. Thought you guys might enjoy. Audio is straight off the camera. Here's his Wiki page: Billy Mure - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Some Joan Jett pix that I took at a convention in 2007. Enjoy: joan_jett_and_the_blackhearts Photo Gallery by Richard King at pbase.com I wish I had recorded there that day.

Being the old geezer (62) that I am, I'm not a fan of hip hop music, however, you did a great job on this song. Very nicely instrumently balanced, understandable vocals, and, once again, very good vocal balances, even with voices moving left to right. I'm certainly glad that you enjoyed the...

I use an ART S8 3 Way splitter. Never used the third, but it's there if I ned it.

You can check out some recordings that I have done for local bands in the area here in Florida. Recordings have all been done live and, so far, all band members have been happy. My system blows the budget you have, but, I think is worth the investment (I hope). I use up to 3 eight channel...

This was shot in the dark of the band Voodoo playing LIVE at Waldo's in Vero Beach, Fl. Recording audio was done to multitrack and replaced the camera microphone. The band still plays every Wed evening at Waldo's and they are very good. This was shot as an experiment on my part and was the...

I've always been a firm believer in micing everything as close as possible. As for vocal mics, I have a mic splitter that I use for that (actually for the horns also) so that the live portion and I (the recording portion) get the same feed. I use an ART S83way as my splitter. As for the bass...

I bought my stuff used, mostly off Craiglist or EBAY.

I found a solution. Go to page 2 of my website: Richard King Media | Media Conversions and Location Recording Services You will find a song that I engineered in 1976-77 or so on my 80-8. This band was MUCH more famous than Zokalo (a great band) with a song that sold millions. This is a LIVE...

Check out my website (go to page 2) and you can find a bunch of location recording projects that were recorded using a Presonus Firestudio 2626 and a Presonus Digimax FS. My outline on the site has a picture of my current rack also (along with very old gear).

I think all you need is a serial number which should be on the bottom of the unit (hopefully). I have sent several products into them for repair in the past, in fact a Digimax FS of mine is in right now being fixed. Assistance from them has been pretty bad for several years. It's rare that...
