    Decent 32 channel mixer for recording?

    So I'm in the market for a new mixer. Right now I am using 2 Layla 3G sound cards on my PC which give me 16 analog ins and outs. They sound great and have no desire to upgrade here right now. I'm currently using a Mackie 1604VLZ Pro mixer to get tom tracks pre'd up and run the direct outs to...

    Art TPS problem

    I have an Art TPS that I bought brand new quite a few years ago. I've used it a couple dozen times on various projects. Well, the one channel has almost no gain on it. Even with both gains all the way up and the +20db pad in it still barely has any gain. The other channel seems to be fine...

    Are these tubes any good?

    I realize you can't tell by looking at a tube if it works or not, BUT... I was going through my attic because we're moving and found a bin with a few tubes. I have what looks to be like 4 12AX7A's (3 RCA and 1 Telefunkin) and 2 12AU7A's (both RCA). There are also 2 oddballs - 6AU6A and 6CG7...

    Help! Both Layla 3Gs not showing up is ASIO

    I am trying to run two Layla 3G's with the ASIO drivers and they are not showing up as devices. I get the second one as Layla3G-2, but the first one does not show up. Any idea if I can use two of the same device like this together with ASIO? Any help would be great. Thanks!

    FL Studios to play midi file with DR770 not working...

    I'm basically trying to use my Boss DR-770 as a drum sound unit and drive it from FL Studios playing pre-written midi files. So that means that I want the DR-770 to play the "notes" that FL Studios is sending. I have both FL Studios midi track and the Boss DR770 on channel 10. When I play a...

    Dead Rode NT1000 - great service, so far...

    I have a pair of Rode NT1000's that I've had for quite a few years. They worked flawlessly for a few projects and I love them to death for overheads. I also absolutely think they are awesome for acoustic instruments and vocals. To make a long story short I'd be mad if they got stolen or...

    How can you tell if a diaphram went bad?

    I have a Rode NT1000 and the output on it is really really low. I have a second one which I actually bought new years ago and the output is what I would expect. I compared AC voltages on the output of the diaphrams and the good one gets me around 50mv just by singing a medium volume into it...

    Axon AX50 and Kontakt Player 2 sounds w/ VST files

    I just recently bought an Axon AX50 to use with my guitar. For those of you who don't know what it is, it uses a special pickup that goes on your guitar and generates a midi signal. So basically it turns your guitar into a midi keyboard / instrument. Anyways it has Kontakt Player 2 with it...

    Modding a Behringer MX9000 - is it worth it?

    I have a Behringer MX9000 (and I realize that alot of people don't like Behringer). It has had some channels come and go while recording / rehearsing. I've even moved to other channels and they act dead sometimes. At any rate, I replaced the +/- 17v LM350's with LM338T's in the power supply...
