Hmm, heard it for the umpteenth time tonight. Never posted in this forum, but it is labeled "techniques", so I guess I can't be too far off. Maybe it is "self" techniques searching for advice, and sorry gentlemen and ladies if I am not in the swing. But, techciques in recording....I have...

Listening to "live and Let Die", yes the real version, on Sunday night radio. After the "what does it matter to ya..." bridge, the ending line goes into "ya gotta give the other fella Hell......" Again just listening, but I heard something, or thought about something, I haven't heard or...

For those of you who have followed and helped me, link below will take you to my soundclick site. Old MSR samples are appropriately labeled as such, and the new sample is titled HD24 dry drum sample. This is just a rough mix and dry from the DM Pro into the board to the recorder and back...

This is my favorite forum, but after the continued problems with the MSR I bought an HD24. I still have 9 days left to return to GC, but from a couple of mess around tracks, I don't think I'm going to. Still too early to tell, I guess. The rest of my setup is still analog so I hope you guys...

I started a little search for a new machine. Again, the hiss on the MSR with GP9 I could probably live with, not completely happily, but live with. The pops and crackles are a little harder to swallow, so it has me looking at least. There are some MS-16 machines around. Some don't have the...

Last thread on the GP9 and my MSR was getting a little lengthy, but in short if I am getting pretty noticeable hiss after recal. for GP9 tape, should I been sending my signals into the MSR hotter and then backing them off when returned into the board before going out to tape? The last post of...

The Mackie 24.8 outs are XLR. First time I've sent something out with the new setup into the CDRW-700, and without reading through the manual does anyone know if the 8 bus series has 1/4" outs to that can go into my CDRW700? You know, never an issue with my 488MKII as everything out was RCA...

SAme with the preamp section, same here, same in a lot of other forums I would guess....Same question comes up....for my $100 or $200 or $500 (usually stops at $1,500 or so because by then you either have enough bucks to spend or have a good enough understanding to choose in the lower $$$...

I have an SM58 I have had for awhile and used to use it for live vocals when I was playing out a few years back. I have heard, and read, the specs are pretty similar on the two, and used both for vocals throughout the years. I always used 57 for my cabinets live. Something just in the...

I've previously used US recording media, but any ideas on a quick place to pick up a good GP9 1.2" 2500' on metal reel? Oh yeah, since I already have a 456 reel of tape but no GP9 which my MSR will now be biased for, will it hurt anything if I record scratch tracks on the 456 reel in the...

My tech said he replaced capacitors or transistors (sorry, I'm electronically challenged) in the bad Dolby amp cards but it did not fix the problem. He A/B'd it with and without Dolby and said there is little difference, it is not producing much undesirable noise. He suggested I use it without...

I just spoke with a PMI rep, though I didn't catch his name. Customer service is important and I received great service as always. For what it's worth, my questions were about Joemeek JM47 that I currently own and the Studio Projects C3. Without a/b'ing, just curious as to what the guys who...

Is anyone using Universal Audio pres/recording channels? If so, how do you like them? What genre of music and/or instruments do you like to use them on?

Universal Audio products I believe are hard-wired, or discreet, correct? Tube as well, as I understand. I'm also looking at the new Meek series, oneQ or even twinQ. Research says, latter made in China but decent parts and engineering where the $$ was saved as Alan has conveyed on here. UA...

I know, this should go in the rack, but a lot of those guys are fronting digital systems and probably look for different qualities in their preamps. You guys have always helped me and given good answers and advice to my questions as well as having maybe a better fix on what pre would do well...

Check this 2" Otari out. This is near me, too. Are these self-contained machines or are there pieces missing? I think on this type of pro recorder the NR units are outboard, right? Power suppy is internal? Just wondering why no one has bid on this yet :confused...

My tech tells me that a couple of the Dolby amp cards were bad on my MSR-16. They were also marked with an X in marker, so someone knew about it, likely the guy a bought it from on ebay, a sound engineer in San Francisco area that ebays by the name of "nob turner", Gary M. by name (forget the...

Update on my previous MSR thread....my tech says the Dolby cards are bad on a couple of the channels. Apparently there is one card per two channels, making a lot of sense with the mischievous activity happening in the channels in pairs when Dolby was engaged. He is doing pro bono work right...

Taking it to the same original tech (only second time, so I guess we'll see) Thursday (day off and an hour drive). OK, when I engage Dolby S (two separate buttons, one for chs 1-8, one for chs 8-16) it still does occasional noises, but I've learned this in recording with it. Dolby engaged...

Used to the TASCAM 488, but now I have new stuff I'm learning. Mackie 24.8...love the board, but experimenting and getting to know it with the MSR-16 (though the latter still has a few problems that it is going in for). Anyway, I want to make the most of the headroom of the board, and it has a...
