    in ear moniters

    I'm kinda late, sorry. I have used a monitor set up mixed with phones/earbuds throughout the band with a Furman 16ch monitor mixer system where every member fixes thier own mix. We used it for 2 days and we are, for the moment, using a 7 monitor mix system based around a modified 24-4 with 12...

    Can I post a POD Question here?

    On a weekly basis, I use a Pod pro with a Strat and Fender Vibrolux Reverb Amp. I get anything from clean fender sounds (duh) to Mesa/Marshall. It just takes time to tweak.

    anyone here with mackie hr824's?

    Sheetrock won't help your sound. You need to at least get a roominator kit with some 2" foam for the wall and bass traps in the corners. The foam will add depth and detail and the traps will keep your low mids more accurate.

    anyone here with mackie hr824's?

    Well... sorry, I took another good look at my setup last night. My monitors are about equidistant from each other and myself when I sit up in my chair which is where I DO listen from. I guess the rule that I am breaking, if you want to call it that, is that my monitors are slightly toed out. I...

    anyone here with mackie hr824's?

    Hi, I built some stands for mine and moved my desk far away from the wall. My speakers are 6-10" from a wall covered in 2" foam near the corner bass traps. They are about 6' from each other and I am about 3 feet back. In addition, I did not toe in my speakers. I know this sounds odd but, after...

    How could someone recommend the 20/20's when they have such a scooped mid section?

    If you read interviews with mixing engineers, you will see a big disagreement with what you suggest about monitor volume. Most pro's agree and suggest that you listen to it at different levels, 3 in particular. Normal, then check it loud and check it soft. Personally, I have to say that I...

    I had Tannoy Reveal Passives and liked them. I blew them in a drum session and lucked out by replacing them with Mackie 824's. There is more detail, depth and width. Not to mention that the bottom end is a heck of a lot more accurate.

    Recording Drums - Last...... Will this work?

    CHECK IT OUT... This is fact from Mix Magazine. Rush just released their latest album. Geddy Lee and Alex Lifeson recorded their parts with a click. This was in part due to the fact that they were writing as they recorded. Neil Peart then came in and payed drums to their tracks. Geddy and...

    I really appreciate the response. Thanks. It is not my intention to ask for an opinion based on limited info, I just didn't want to unload a bunch of irrelevant info. If it will help and if you are interested, this is my predicament. I am going to set up a studio for Audio and for video work...
