I remember mixing my four-track machine with a hi-fi stereo Panasonic VHS machine in the early 1990s. There were some magazine articles about doing this at the time. These days, something like a DV-3700 is probably $50. I would instead do that than VCR but YMMV.

Yeah, I remember these being pricey for an entry-level reverb back in the day. I think they were $500+. I had this, the LXP-5, and MRC for a while but sold it after getting a killer deal on my LARC system. Normally I wouldn't have been interested in this, but the condition and price made it a...

Today, I picked up this brand new Lexicon LXP-1. It's never been taken out of the box. The power supply is almost fused to the styrofoam. I didn't need it because I have a LARC but for $40 I had to buy it!

Sometimes. Greg Mackie designed them with the pots filled with goo to make them turn more smoothly. In my experience, they would loosen up if you turned them a bit but many of the ones I tried were still smooth.

I think everyone's first was a Tapco! The early Mackie gear in the 1990s was pretty epic at the time. Just think of how many records were made with an eight-bus bus and ADAT/DA-88!

In college (Berklee), I was a dual major - MP&E and Music Synthesis (now something like Music Technology). The LM3204 was in the better labs (L1, L2, etc.), and it sounded fine, and by that, I mean it didn't sound like anything. IIRC, these were made in the USA, and at the time, Mackie was a...

mine usually is as well! yours looks great

I agree with Scott. The Box is the way to go!

I mean that in a good way! It's fun seeing all that great gear I remember from that period!

A few years ago I was looking for a 335. The best two I played were owned by a friend - a 59 and 61, neither were for sale and were more than I could pay. I played a few fantastic Historic models. I ended up buying a blonde 535 with a top Gibson would charge through the roof for. The headstock...

wow, that takes me back! It's like 2000 in there!

They took up too much room and were a PITA to get out and mic, so I wanted to get them a little more organized. Some company somewhere should come up with an amp storage thing like they sell guitar racks.

The table I had next to it was exactly the same height as well! I bought it about four Black Fridays ago. The thermostat went on it but I bought a new one on Amazon and it's been fine. The fridge is very handy. I keep it stocked with bottled water and I use that thing a ton!

I have an Axe FX, but I don't use it in my studio. It's for the drum monitors live. I find the opposite. My clients like that I get different sounds. These days with everyone using the same amp simulators, the same drum samples, and the same VIs and plugins I find what can set projects apart...

So today I found the perfect solution for my heads on FB Marketplace, where I had been searching for prob three years. Every shelf I found was either too big, too small, too far away, or too expensive. Finding something wide enough and shallow to save space was very difficult. $200 later and 20...

I have an old iPhone I can patch into. I've been using my monitors for a long time, and they're set up correctly. I find things translate fine. I do a mono check when I'm mixing.

Very cool! I love the sunburst Stratocasters!

One of the reasons I don't poast on many online forums is that there is an echo chamber effect. I've been buying old guitars since the late 80s when I was delivering newspapers and cutting lawns, and have always bought what I liked. These days the bloozeman lusting after the TV yellow Jr is...

Open blooze jam? This must be a trick question - I trade the guitar for a gun and the amp for a bullet and kill myself, only to find I'm already dead and stuck in one of Dante's circles of hell! Any of those would work fine. Any amp would as well.

Thanks! Mine is 214en. I'm not a Taylor fan, but I like their non-standard instruments. I have a baritone acoustic, the nylon, and a low-end 12 that I sold because I never used it. All very nice. The six strings don't do it for me. It's very modern sounding, which is great if that's what you're...
