    The tascam M-1508. Does anyone know anything about it? I'm pretty sure it's a four bus, but does it have direct outs? Any aux sends or inserts? Thanks a bunch guys.

    FS: Hollowbody and AC15CC1

    Due to some financial issues and the upcoming hollidays I've decided to sell my guitar rig. :mad: I really hate to do this but I don't have much choice. The guitar is a DeArmond branded Guild X155. I love this guitar. It is in stellar condition. I'll add photos later. $250 obo The amp is an...

    Musicgoround.com???

    Has anyone purchased any decks or mixers from musicgoround.com? I just found out that they sell them. It's seems safer than buying from the bay or something. I know local is best, but if that's not an option it seems that buying from a company will secure things a little better. I know you'll...

    Has anyone read . . .

    this book? If so, is it good? There are very few reviews on it so I thought I'd see what you all thought.

    Cool video for intro to string arrangement

    I'm getting really interested in writing string parts for some of my folk/rock/pop songs. I thought this was helpful. Hope it helps you too. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Upr9ilEm03c&feature=related

    Fret Buzz Diagnosis

    I know it's tough to diagnose fret buzz over the web, but I'm hoping this is specific enough of a situation that you can help. My acoustic only buzzes on one fret on one string. The third fret of the high E string is the culprit. Does this bring any issues to mind or is it still way to broad...

    What works for me

    So, I wanted to share my work flow with you all. Not because it's perfect, or because I'm great, but because I think "where to start" can be daunting if you're just starting out. I hope others will come in and share their process. (I never know which "they're/their/theyrree" to use, sorry) That...

    Used P/ups???

    Is buying used pick ups a mistake? Some p/ups get pretty spendy, so if I could buy used that'd be an option, but is this a "no no?"

    One of the best things to do to get unstuck...

    Are you stuck and feel like you aren't writing as much or as well as you want to? Here's an idea . . . Play an istrument that's not your primary. I'm a pretty poor pianist/key player, but i was helping my sister with some songs for her husband and I set up a synth and just started working with...

    Cabling cost estimate?

    I am starting to plan out the next incarnation of my "studio." It will be a pretty basic 8 track analog setup. I'll be running (hopefully) a 12x4x2 mixer with direct outs used where the busses wont cover. I'll run one (maybe two) FX units. I don't want to scrimp on cables, but I also don't want...

    mixer reccomendations

    Hey guys. I know this has been a topic for discussion going back years. I'm really trying to figure out what mixer I should look for/save up for. Here are the things I would like out of it: solid pres (phantom power a plus), a musical EQ, 2 aux/fx sends at least, I'd like 8 bus (but not...

    I bet you didn't think there'd be a test . . . did you?

    So, I highly reccomend that anyone bounce over to tweakheadz and take the "final exam." It's things like this that can put into perspective what you are strong in, and what you need to work on. Yes, it's all theory, and concept, but without those we can't be strong recordists. Obviously those...

    Ribbon Mics and Pres

    With many of us working on a budget, we have many discussions on low cost pres. The names that get brought up a lot (that I have seen) are: M-Audio DMP3, FMR RNP, Rane, I've heard some votes for the Studio Projects VTP-1, some times ART comes up. Anyway, my question relates to these (and other...

    Any analog boards with phase reverse?

    Hey guys, I'm getting super jazzed about recording again. I dont' know what it is, but I've got the bug!!! I'm planning on buying some "new" gear come tax time and have a question . . . Do any of the analog boards from back in the day have phase reverse funtions? If so, how much do these cost...

    Cascade Vs Nady

    I have heard/read that the Cascade Fathead and the Nady RSM 4 are the same mic, just repackaged. Is this true? Or, maybe are the capsules the same but other components different? Anyone have any ideas? If they are the same why is the fathead almost twice the cost of an RSM4? Thanks guys.

    Interesting article on Blumlein Array and a question

    Here is a pretty cool article (I think) on a recording technique we don't talk much about here. (Note: it is part of a companies promotion and I am unaffiliated with them) http://www.cascademicrophones.com/PDF/BrochureFinal_16.pdf Now, my question is regarding the "decoding" part. It says to...

    M300 Series with Fostex R8?

    Hey guys, I'm talking with a member on here about buying a Fostex R8. It's a great price and I'll buy it (if he still has it when I have the money.) But I've been reading a lot about the M312/308 etc boards. Would these be a workable option with this deck? (I'd love to snag a 308b/312b if...

    This may be a decent buy

    I have no affiliation, no vested intrest, just trolling the bay and found this. http://cgi.ebay.com/Tascam-42B-NB-2-Track-Reel-Reel-Tape-Recorder-42B-/190436796465?pt=Vintage_Electronics_R2&hash=item2c56eae831
