If you haven't heard yet, Cakewalk is making the Ultrafunk Sonitus plug-ins available again. They can be purchased as individual plugs or the entire suite. Unfortunately, there is no trial version available. So, I would like to get feedback from those of you who have used the Ultrafunk stuff...

Anybody ever use this plug? I'm thinking that it might be a little smoother than the Sonic Foundry EQ I'm using now, but I'd like some other ears' opinions. Or, any other EQ plug-ins I should be looking at? http://www.thedirectxfiles.com/manufacturers/JMS_DX-10.htm

I am just a humble guitar player. But I can play some keyboard. I have come to the keyboard turf, hat in hand, seeking assistance. Here is what I am seeking: A basic decent quality board with few bells and whistles. Midi, shmidi. Dunno how to use it, and have no desire to learn. I would...

Could someone who's used both give me their impressions of the similarities and differences between these two? And also, are they in the same league quality-wise? The reason for the question, if it helps is: I am looking for a second acoustic guitar mic to go with my Sm81. While I like the...

From a Sound on Sound review: "The M177 and M179 require phantom power between 24V and 48V (although some CAD literature suggests they can accommodate 52V supplies as well), but with a whopping 8mA supply current! This is well over twice what most other condenser mics require. The Sennheiser...

I don't have anywhere locally to hear the B1. But I am familiar with the AT3035. How do these mics compare to each other? Simlilarities? Differences?

So......... Whaddaya think of this? http://www.rme-audio.de/english/micpreamps/quadmic.htm

Anybody use one of these? If so, what do you think?

Are these things functional at all? I'm not a serious player by any means, but a little "harp" here and there can spice up a recording nicely. I have a couple of Marine Band harmonicas, (that seem to be of fine quality) but I want to pick up some other keys. The Jambones are cost effective...

I have seen mention of certain preamps being able to stack more tracks than others. That is, certain pres build up too much in the lower mids etc., when the tracks reach a certain number, and others do not. How about mics? Can some mics handle more stacked tracks (recorded with the same mic)...

Sorry, didn't know where to post this one. Anybody know of a good recording gear alternative to GC in the Indianapolis area? I'm looking for a place to physically see things and browse. Since Mars bit the dust the only place I have found with somewhat of a selection is GC. (And the Indy GC's...

Will a basic power conditioner such as this http://www.musiciansfriend.com/srs7/sid=030630175007004003181239765632/g=home/search/detail/base_id/54046 help reduce pops and clicks from things like air conditioning and appliances kicking on and off?

Any general advice, starting points, or favorite settings for compressing stereo drum tracks? I am getting into recording drums for the first time. Not booming in your face type rock drums, but recording a standard kit to support acoustic guitar oriented music. Thanks.

I have an Aardvark USB3. (usb audio interface) Only 1 pre-amp input and stereo line in. Nice sound, headphone monitoring and slider volume control for my monitor speakers without using a mixer. So, I like it. Straightforward, simple, solid device. I'm running a DMP3 into the line inputs for...

Anybody use 'em? Like 'em? Are they truly useful? And if so.... What are they constructed from, and can one (more cost effectively) make their own?

Any problems with connecting the XLR out from a preamp to the 1/4" unbalanced input of a computer soundcard? (pre only has an XLR out) Best way to do it?

I have read good things about this preamp as a bass DI and for micing acoustic guitar, but not much about vocals. How is it on vocals? Any particular mics that seem to match up with it well for any of these applications?

I have seen a couple of references to an impending price reduction for the VTB1. Anybody know when and how much? I am in the market for my first outboard pre, and (household finances being what they are) am very interested in this subject. Also, anyone use one with an SM-81 or AT3035? How...

Any words of wisdom about this preamp? Applications where it shines? etc. Is 100 bucks a good deal for a used one?
