    RCA to XLR....impedance loss?

    I want to use a Gemini CDX-01 cd player live for samples and it has RCA outputs in the back. What is the best way to connect this up to the house mixer? I was just guessing I could get 2 Male RCA-->Female XLR adaptors and run the 2 xlr cables to the board. That's the easy way right? My only...

    prerecorded drums/percussion

    For the time being, I am going to do live shows without a drummer and I would like to take all of my prerecorded drum parts and use them live. So, is there anyway (besides using a cd player over the PA) to play with these tracks live? I was thinking maybe there was something like a DAT with...

    Sytek making whale mating calls

    Has anyone had a Sytek make weird sounds, like static or ..... whale mating calls? I plugged a RE-15 I just got into it, and I thought the mic was bad because I was getting all this staticy stuff, then I found out it wasn't the mic. I think i read that someone had to separate their Sytek from...

    EV 635a polar pattern

    I just got my EV 635a (omni) and I noticed that it has a response like a cardioid. Is this normal, or is there something wrong with the mic, or something I'm not understanding?

    421 with Telefunken logo

    does anyone know if these sound different from the normal 421Us? or are they more expensive 'cause of the name/collectibility?

    U195--->Sytek/737/ME1NV

    I just want to blababout my findings tonight, doing some scratch vocals. Yea, I know I didn't do this scientifically, but I matched the volume up when listening back. I recorded my U195 into my Sytek ch1, ch4 BurrBrown, Avalon 737 (no comp/no eq), GRiver Me1NV, and 1880 preamps. We know...

    help me pick out a goodly snare

    I don't own a drumset, but I'm thinking about buying piece by piece and I'd like to get a snare first. I'm guessing 14" dia., but I'm not sure about depth, definatly no piccalo. Maybe all maple shell? Type of music:Mogwai, Modest Mouse, Pinback, Sunny Day Real Estate etc. I've not owned a...

    Sytek vs Avalon 2022

    Just wondering if anyone has compared the sound quality of a Sytek and a Avalon M5/2022. Wondering just how much different they are in regards to cleanliness/definition/frequency tightness and transient response.

    kick micing/mic choice

    Was wondering about the 2 mic method on kick. Shoving a dynamic inside and putting a condenser (U195) outside the shell. Hell, my question even applies to a room mic.... What do you do about the phase issues, or are they negligible? Second question, and I've done some research on this...

    best??? tracking headphones

    I tried to search, but got lazy and decided to ask a common question. The nerve... I need to get a set of headphones that has the MOST isolation for tracking and the most "true" sound so I can get an accurate account of what I'm picking up. I'll still check it out on the monitors of course...

    DS-90A Roland monitors

    I posted this in "other" under the equipt. and got no bites, but I guess it belongs in here as well.... I was just wondering what everyone thought about these monitors. I've never heard anyone on HR talk about them, and I don't want to ask VSplanet for a biased opinion. I was just wondering if...

    Roland DS-90A monitors

    I was just wondering what everyone thought about these monitors. I've never heard anyone on HR talk about them, and I don't want to ask VSplanet for a biased opinion. I was just wondering if my monitors were a weak link in my chain. I use a VS1880 and I bypass the pres and converters with a...

    Baptism of 1880 with COlt45

    What do you do when someone spills malt liquor on your 1880? Well, you take it all apart and set a fan on it overnight and pray to God that it will work for you in the morning. Then you spray they guy who did it with something nastier than Colt 45.

    U195, dragonfly, etc

    I've got to get this off my chest. I got a U195 demo unit over this weekend. Now let me say 1st of all that me ears aren't NEARLY as trained as I'd like them to be. I've been looking for a new mic for vocals and acoustic mostly (also for overhead/room, clean guitar cab , etc). I've got...

    I found their link under a Soundelux dealer list. They are out of Boston. The website looks alright. Just wondering if anyone has dealt with them. Richie Monroe? Fletcher? anyone?

    vocal mics i forgot about

    I already own AT4050, AKG414TLII, and a BabyBottle for my LDC vocal mics. I was wondering what other choices would come to mind that I should try out? I was thinking Rode NTK & SM7. Some different flavors from what I've already got, especially for other singers. Of course, I'm gonna...

    Patching EQ out of a 737

    Is it possible? Without geting the Preamp signal of the 737? I can't see how, but someone mentioned it to me once. Theres only Line Out and a compressor mono link 1/4" jack on the 737. I'm trying to maybe link the 737 up to the Great River 1NV, and use the GR pre and the 737 EQ. Also...

    outboard headphone AMPs

    Im running an 1880 and I use this crapbox Apex headphone amp that someone gave me. I use AKG K270studio (75ohm) and AKG K240studio (55ohm) cans and the k240s seem to do alright, but the K270s always distort easily. Seems they are supposed to take more juice cause they have 2 speakers per ear...
