    Report: The Yorkville Apex 430 mic

    Yo Colleagues of Gourmet Recording: I just got my Yorkville 430 mic and plugged it in. It has a wonderful sound footprint. I was using an AKG3000 for most of the vocal work I do but the 430 is much better. Cost: List price is 185 pezzutos but take 25% from that. So, for around 133 pezzutos...

    Yorkville: /Apex 420/430

    Yo to all: Since I just plugged in a pair of Yorkville YSM-1 monitors and found them to be OUT OF SIGHT compared to those monitors I UNPLUGGED which were Alesis 1's, I wondered about the Yorkville studio mics: Apex 420 or the 430? Anyone out there use either of these mics? If they are...

    Used MD-8

    Yo Nil of Bogs: If you're selling your MD-8, what are you buying? Or, have you given up recording? Good luck selling your MD-8; selling used gear is like trying to sell your mother-in-law, or, give her away. But, some person in your neck of the woods might buy it. Happy New Year Goblin...

    monitors for the seeker of value

    Yo friends: I finally did it and ordered a pair of Yorkville YMS-1 monitors. Why? Well, I think my Alesis I's are merely adequate. From the chatter around here and there, the Yorkville speakers, very modestly priced at 108.00 pezzutos per speaker, are better than my Alesis 1 speakers...

    870, 880, and now the 890? BINGO

    Ok guys: Before I run out and buy one just because the advertising is marvelous, what about the Roland 890? How long do you have to punch menus to get to someplace? I would guess the sound is wonderful with 24 bit. But, Roland must be making many errors because each new model reflects a...

    FOR THOSE ALWAYS FIRST AT THE POST

    I have been evaluating CDR burners; there is a new one by HHB, namely BURNIT CDR 830. If you are an owner, how is this unit? Difficult to use? It appears pretty straight forward in the literature from the HHB site. Many thanks for input, Green Hornet

    On a Clear Day....

    Yo Friends: I just got a new Monte Carlo SS with a sound system that doesn't quit. The CD and tape sounds are so clear, even on some tapes I did back on my old Tascam 488. Now the question: I'd like to get that kind of reproduction clarity in my studio. Do I have to junk my Infinity...

    OK YOU MASTERLINKERS OUT LINKING

    ok: Simple question. You own a Masterlink; you put down some stuff into it. You are ready to make your CD. HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO BURN, LET'S SAY, 55 MINUTES ON A 70 MINUTE DISC? If I buy this item, I want to know as much as I can about it. I know that it has taken some hard criticism...

    WHAZZZZZZZZZZZUP with you MD8 folks?

    Yo NILBOG: Must be that everyone who owns an MD-8 knows how to do everything. Yea, verily, it is a simple box to begin with; however, it it complicated in certain aspects. So, I'll give this problem to all you expert MD-8 users. How in the hell do you bounce a track or copy a recorded track...

    Bytes, bits, and CD-itis

    Hello all of your venerable fellow music enthusiasts: Question: I know about the Masterlink. I know about the Yam CDR. I am looking at a Philips CDR 770 which sells for under 400 Pezutos: Is the Philips product a good unit? I know it will accept about any input analog/digital; but, how...

    What can your LAP do?

    In perusing the world of CD burners, a thought came to me today as I was going through the latest copy of EM. Can a Laptop PC be used to burn a CD. That is: could I dump my music from the MD-8 RCA outs into a LAP PC and have the necessary program {s} and plugs to do the CD? Thanks to you...

    The Lexicon MPX-100

    Just plugged in this unit; now I have two FX units of small size doing a big job. My Alesis Midiverb III is what I've been using most of the time; the addition of the Lexicon low-priced unit is pretty good because it's 24 bit and the Alesis is only 16 bit. The Alesis gives vocals some nice...

    Button Button Button on the AKG 3000

    I just know the "Engineer" will be able to answer this one or one of you erudite technicians viewing this question. I use the AKG 3000; it is an ample mic; I'm sure there are much better ones out there for different ears. But, here is my question: On the sleeve of the mic there are three...

    To use the mic trim first or not to use it first?

    Yo Goblin: I read somewhere in this forum, from some post, by Ed, I think, maybe not, THAT: wHEN cranking up the MD-8 that the MIC TRIM SHOULD BE SET FIRST and then find a level with the fader for a given track. I haven't tried that yet; just wondered if that is accurate? Everytime I turn on...

    Alesis Masterlink 9600

    FYI: The latest issue of EM has a very good review of the Alesis Masterlink CD Burner. I was thinking about getting one but after reading the review, I think I'll wait until Alesis makes some needed improvements, which I'm sure they will do. The Green Hornet

    The Old Leslie Speaker

    Yea verily: I have one of the great Leslie speakers sitting in my studio; it acts as a table that collects discs, files, roms, etc. But, my, when I was out there gigging with Cordovox, I used this marvelous speaker and was it great. It is still great. Cordovox for you Newbies, is a Stomach...

    Vocals/Accoustic

    Yo Joet & ect.:] I'm just going to give you a couple of suggestions as I am not familiar with the unit you use to record. Get a mic-pre-amp; the most popular out there for the money is the ART dual channel which comes with phantom power built in so that will cover all the mics you might use in...
