    Please help identify this drum set

    Yeah, I know, I'm a total newbie when it comes to drums but can you guys help me identify the attached? I know it's a 3 piece with one bass drum[?] on the floor, a snare drum[?] and a hi-hat? Another stupid question, can a person buy these separately and what is the usual cost involved? Thanks.:o

    How to disguise a digital piano's sound

    Hi, What would you recommend as far as disguising a digital piano's "perfect" sound to make it more natural in its tone? Any EQ, reverb advice perhaps?

    I'm currently searching out a service manual for my new acquisition, the Akai GX-32 but in the mean time I'd like to know where is a good online place to buy "off the shelf" cassette deck parts such as pinch rollers, belts etc.... etc.... Actually I've found one but would like your comments...

    Akai GX-32 cassette deck service manual?

    Probably a tall order but checking just in case someone here might be able to help me out with one, for this rather rare sleeper of a deck, for which I paid 10 bucks in a local thrift store. :eek::D;) Same deck here, with specs;): http://www.vintagecassette.com/Akai/GX-32

    Anyone own a FOSTEX G16 ?

    OK, first off, I have enough machine already but, sadly, GAS (Gear Acquisition Syndrome) has slowly crept it <Dave, are you listening?:D> ... and I have a chance to local pickup a G16. :eek: While I generally stray from FOSTEX, the G series, from what I read, was a completely different breed vs...

    Do you want Quantegy 456 ?

    As you probably know, having visited http://www.quantegy.com/ recently, "plans are being formulated for the revival of Quantegy 499 Gold Studio Mastering and GP9 Platinum Studio Mastering audio products". This is nice and all but seems catered mostly to higher end studio machines capable of...

    Alignment tool, tweaker

    Guys, I have a bit of an issue.... :o The plastic alignment tools that I bought last year don't seem to work at all on my latest acquisition, the TASCAM 48-OB. The tools don't fit the 'tape tension' adjustment pots [photos attached]. I tried to make one from a credit card [it fit] but it...

    Why analogue and not digital?

    At the suggestion of my good friend Tim (Beck), I thought I’d make my 5000th post 'count' and it seems only fitting that it begins with how my journey began, some 8 or so years ago...:o I thought it'd be more appropriate [and perhaps more succinct] to share with you a link and article below...

    What do you use to protect your gear from a power surge or lightening?

    I would like to get a better power strip, based on this article here: http://www.hrsdc.gc.ca/en/lp/lo/fp/information/manual/guideline/2006-02.shtml ...but I'm still not sure which brand / model to get as there is so much misinformation [especially from manufacturers] and questionable...
