I just won a Supraphonic for a reasonable price. What do you guys think? Did I get a good price on it? It looks like the 6.5s go for WAY more, but this one is a 5" and I'm sure it will sound good as well. Any more info on th is drum besides what the guy has already listed? Ludwig Supraphonic

a continuation from my other thread... what Gretsch snare models are "lower-end" and which are higher? I see a Catalina Club for $50 and a Catalina Birch for $150-$200. I want to spend $300 give or take on a good one. I just don't want to overspend on it.

I finally bought a pearl export set for my little studio and the snare sucks, so I thought I'd ask you guys for your opinions on a good wood snare. I've already ready some threads about this topic, but wanted MORE input. I've been considering: Pearl (but what model, I dont know--chad smith?)...

I want a new guitar amp mainly for recording. I have a Boogie Mark IIC+, and am looking for a different sound. I was considering a BF/SF Princeton with reverb (for collectibility also), but that is pretty much where Boogie got it's sound, so I don't think it would be that different. I also...

Why do people pay $100+ more for the original SM7 than the SM7B. I know the technical differences between the models, and Harvey even said that he could not tell the difference between the SM7 and SM7B in sound. So is this a collectibility/elietist thing? Is it because the original was made...

I only have one guitar amp, Boogie Mark IIC+, and I'm looking towards getting a Fender. I've been looking at the Bassman, Bandmaster, Showmaster, Tremoverb, Twin, Princeton...etc... Someone told me that buying the head versions of these was not as good as getting the whole combo because they...

Just wondering if the compressor in these two are identical or just really close. I guess it's because of the tighter layout, I figured maybe something was sacrificed. Looks like you can't do the 4-button trick with the 6176? Anyway, thought I might try out a 6176.

what is the best way to hang the foam on the ceiling so it doesn't rip the foam when I have to remove it. One guy said to cut out thin panel from the hardware store and glue it to that, then liquid nail that to the ceiling. Sound good? Any other ideas?

I posted this in the rack, but maybe it belongs in here a lil more. I'm in the market for some good sounding effects, since i'm not really happy with the ones in my VS1880. I'm looking for something that hits guitars and vocals mostly. Any suggestions? Oh, budget....hmmm....I'm gonna go cheap...

I'm in the market for some good sounding effects, since i'm not really happy with the ones in my VS1880. I'm looking for something that hits guitars and vocals mostly. Any suggestions? Oh, budget....hmmm....I'm gonna go cheap and try to keep it under $500. What am I leaving out?

do these piss anyone else off but me? It looks like I'm gonna sell my card and UA comp bundle because the plug-ins are soooooooooooooooooo slow and irritating...not to mention...slow...and the buffer fills up and you get interrupted. I was so looking foreward to using the UA compressors, but...

This mic comes with the manual and that is all. This is the model with the pattern switch, bass rolloff switch, and 10db pad. $150. If you want some pictures, just ask.

Do they have to go exactly in the corner? In my basement, I am rearranging things hopefully for the better (better sound treatment), and putting up some absorbers and diffusors. There is a damned door in the left corner of the front of the room, and if I put a bass trap there, of course the...

Also......what are your thoughts on these 2 compressors. I know I have mentioned this before, and I rented a distressor and played around with it for a night. The thing is, I saw a 1176 on ebay go for $1145 and I was like, damn, maybe I CAN afford either one. So far, I think I'm going with...

I have an ME-1NV and I was looking to get more preamps. I see on DOTs preamp chart, that the 1272 is at the TOP as the most "colored" pre. Looks like I can get 2 channels of Vintech 1272 at a little more than $1000. Do you guys think that it is a little/lot different flavor than the ME-1NV...

I was wondering if THIS company (on ebay) is comparible to Auralex. Has anyone bought from this guy? I wonder if it's worth it to pay the extra $$$ for the Auralex LENRD bass traps.

I want to use outboard gear with my VS1880. All the outputs the 1880 has are RCA. Would I just use an RCA-->XLR connector to get the signal to the rack? I'm asking because it seems there might be an impedence mismatch that way? (Unbalanced to balanced?)

I have big holes in my mic collection. I don't own any ribbons or tubes. Here's a list of my mics, please throw out (any kind) mics that would round out what I have. SM57 x 2 421 U5 441 D112 EV R-15 EV 635a AT 4050CM5 KM184 x 2 414TLII AKG 3000 (selling) Baby Bottle U195 I am an under...

Ebay 1176 Compressor Would you buy an 1176 for $1100 if it had gone through a fire, but came out "unscathed?"

I've been wanting to get a new compressor, since all I have is one RNC and the compression in my Avalon 737, and the ones in my Roland VS1880 (do they count?, haha). I've read that the Joe Meeks are good, say for drums and such. What are any suggestions on what I could start looking at? I...
