Hey All! I just got in a new tube I'd like to swap in my Studio Projects T-3 mic. If anyone has instructions or experience doing this, I'd love some hints / instructions on how to do this before I jump into it . Thanks! Tom

Now that I am through with my build I have some diffusor panels I never used. I think they are 24 inches square and 2 inches thick at the thickest. There are around 32 of them and I need the garage space, so if you are in the Dallas / Fort worth area and can come get them, You can HAVE them...

Well, Due to the fact I absolutely love my Kel HM1's (drums / violins/ mando / banjo) I pulled the trigger on the new HM2d which is a large diaphragm condenser that is voiced to be similar to a large diaphragm dynamic (similar to an SM7). I had been trying to buy a SM7 under $250 with no luck...

A little off topic. I want to buy my Son a Gig worthy case for his custom Mapex Kick. It is a beautiful but large 24" diameter by 20" long kick. With spurs folded probably 28" wide no mount on top so 26" on height and the depth I think the rims make it 24 inches. I could even go with adding a...

OK, I am going nuts trying to figure out what this snare drum accessory is called, and where to find it. It looks like a small portion of wooden hoop the fits between a couple of lugs that helps save your sticks from getting chopped up on the edge of the hoops. I've looked for "stick saver" and...

Well, After nearly 2 years of building I am basically done. Yes... I still need a good Chair! The pics are awful but here goes: I put one pic of the mix nook in Tracking Mode (panels down) and one in Mixing Mode (panels up). There is a bad pic of the 7x7 vocal booth and one of the 10 x 11 drum...

I need a good clean (cheap is good) way to switch between 2 different stereo sources for my monitors. Need dead quiet, no coloration. I tried a patch bay but it pops a little when plugging in and the amp is on. I'd even consider building it, but am no genius with a soldering iron, (not too bad...

Hey guys and gals! I am on the hunt for 16 channels of good ad/da. It needs to adat optical as the digital (to/from computer) I/O. I have been looking at Lucid , RME/ Nuendo, Apogee and others along that line. I can't afford a lot so I am looking used for about $1200 total max. If that don't...

What are the existing options for 16 channel I/O for an older computer? I want something better than RME if possible? I presently have (3) Delta 1010s and a couple of Lucid 9624s clocked to a Lucid Genx6. The Lucid's sound good, I guess i could look into the 8 channel adat versions. I'd prefer...

I don't know if it is kosher for me to post this, but I just saw a local listing for this and thought it a good enough deal to see if someone here could nab it. It's not mine, nor do I have any ties or knowledge of this guy. In other words, pursue at your own risk. Dallas Craig's list...

With the proliferation of new ribbon mics out there requiring hi gain pres, I was wondering if it would work ( on say... a DMP-3)to run the mic t o channel one, the output of channel 1 to the input of channel 2 and run them at a more moderate and quiet level to have enough gain for a ribbon? Is...

I need to make up a bunch of unbalanced 1/4 inch type cable runs, some as long as 25feet. I have a huge roll of coaxial beldon 75 ohm video typ cable. Can it be used sucessfully for 25 foot runs without sound degradation? Your thought s are appreciated. Tom

I am in need of at least 2 more independent channels of compression for mainly tracking purposes. Acoustic / Electric oriented Folk / Jazz / Rock type stuff. I have 2 RNCs, and love them! but I would have to get 2 more of them to have what I need. I use them on voice and acoustic instruments...

Hey Guys! I am selling my Rackmount mixer I just bought in January. I used it a total of 3 times for creating headphone mixes, but it just was not what I needed. I needed a lot more channels and more routing options. It has the first 2 inputs with mic input ability (on 1/4 inch plug / no phantom...

Well guys, I am nearly done. I still lack the drum booth and attaching the snake boxes to the wall... but I HAD to do some recording... I was going nuts. Plus ... I needed some money to pay for the place... Anyway let me know what you think. Tom

Hey guys! have a small problem I hope you have an answer for. I have recently bought some EV n/d 406 or 408s (i cant remember). They are the dynamic mics that are egg shaped and are suspended on a yolk of sorts. They sound excellent except for the fact there is a verrrryyyy slight hum...

I have to make a choice on 2 deals presented to me. I had been considering getting a console for mixing as weel as possibly using the pres to augment my selection of stand alone pres ( RNPS, DMP-3s, MPA Golds). Right now I can get a 20 year old 28 channel soundcraft 500b in good condition for...

I had been looking for something to mix straight from my 2 Delta 1010s to a stand alone recorder so I can use my outboard gear. I would also dig some nice mic pres. A local guy has a '70s model MCI JH 600 series console (28 channels) he got out of radio station and is looking to sell it...

I am tired of using my stand alone pres for micing up a drum kit so I am contemplating getting a 8 to 12 channel mixer with at least 4 sub groups ( or some direct outs) to mic up a kit and sub group the toms to a stereo track while allowing some options on kick and snare. Are there any older(...

It has been a while since I posted pics. I finally got the walls taped -bedded- textured and the place painted. Now it is time to trim and hang acoustic treatments. Maybe I'll get done by Christmas....... Tom
