Awesome! With just a quick glance, it seems pretty intense for an acoustic novice like myself. So I may have some questions later. Thanks!

Hey all, can anyone point me to a thread about diy room analysis. I know there are some equipment out there that does this, but I don't have the funds to drop into something like that. I've search for a way to do it and kind of have an idea of how to go about it, but I wanted to get some second...

Hey all, i'm building some quadratic diffusers for my control room and i'm wondering what frequency should I target? I'm using QRDude's calculater and right now I have it set for 1500Hz and it gives me a range of 750Hz to a HF cutoff of 6880Hz. Is there an ideal target frequency or is mainly...

I have a 16 channel snake coming from my live room. I'm wanting to take the fan out and come in the back of the XLR patch bay and come out TRS to my full TRS patch bay that has my interface, compressors, preamps, etc. patched into it.

Hey all, I'm wanting to add a 16 channel XLR patch bay at my desk. I would prefer to have the xlr/TRS connectors. Has anyone ever built one and if you have how'd you do it and where did you get the materials(chassis, connectors, etc.)? Here's an example of what i'm thinking....just don't want...

Not so much motion or width, but more of a placement, in my mind there are instruments or little subtle things that don't seem to sit well in the speakers. Unless there is a better way that I'm not aware of, I would imagine this would help solve that issue. Still something I'd like to try...

This is a good video that explains the effect. He does a demonstration in there that gives the effect. Very cool Pro Tools Tutorials: The Haas Effect - YouTube

From what I could tell, you get more fullness from doing it. Instead of sending all the power of an instrument toward the left or right, you have a signal in each speaker, but you perceive the signal without the delay first, or vice versa, not sure. the best example I've found was explained...

Not so much delay that it causes a ping pong delay, but in the 5-6 ms range. From what I understand it's taking a mono signal and rather than panning it left or right, you create a copy, panning one hard left and the other hard right, add a delay of around 3ms to 7ms to add the effect and...

Hey all, I have been doing some in depth studying on different mixing techniques and came across the Haas effect. VERY interesting to say the least. Has anyone ever used this method, if so what did you use it on and how did it turn out? I've yet to try this out, but kind of exciting to put it to...

I have a pair of the first generation BX8s and I wish I'd never bought them. They are horrible for mixing. They are very high and low end biased and give you a false perspective when mixing. I still have them, but I strictly use them for referencing. I use a pair of Yamaha HS50s for nearfield...

It's more than likely the 'white tape with words' lol. Really good sound! To me it sounds like it's a lot in how it's played and tuning has a lot to do with it, of course. In my experience, kicks tend to resonate a little longer when the velocity is lower and there isn't a lot of dampening. Some...

I ran into that error too. The last update Avid released for PT8 allowed you to run it on Window 7. If i'm not mistaken you have to install it as administrator(right click on file; select run as admn.)

I'm having an issue with the installation of PT11. I'm installing it from a digital download to a Window 7 system. I owned PT8LE previously. I've gone through the registration/ilok process and extacted the installation file, but when I try installing the software it comes up with a 1309 Error. I...
