    Hooking up effects I need some advice

    Ask and ye........ There I am cabled and labeled. Everything really fits in nice. My insert cable still has tape on it because I have a right angle one on order. When it's in the "Table" configuration, the AUX OUT, EFFECTS IN, and INSERT cable are unplugged from the mixer and tucked...

    Today was Deoxit Day!!!! (again......) I did this once before with a Home Depot CRC electronics cleaner. When I finished there was no improvement. It was recommended I try a cleaner and lube. I sprayed each pot in three places. Where the board leads enter the pot, in a tab hole where the metal...

    Cable Labeling

    Any Hints on what to do when labeling each end of the cable? I'm thinking along the lines of "Tape Out 1" being TO1, "Compressor Insert 1" being CI1 etc...... Is there any standard on this?? (Standards are good because I can see me a year from now going "Now why would I have labeled this "too...

    Only one thing today. I was noticing yesterday that as soon as I'd unpatch a cable, it would fall behind everything. I'd end up having to reach back and try to sort through the cables behind to find it. I had some spare Velcro laying around, so I made two strips and screwed one into the IKEA...

    Hooking up effects I need some advice

    Yesterday, when I was messing with the board, I was recording each channel and trying to listen back while overdubbing. For some reason, using inserts as outs kills monitoring on the mixer. I ended up hooking an rca cable from the 234's "Cue Out" to the mixers "Tape in" (which might be what SB...

    Well.... a couple more little things..... The compressor has a little friend I also had to cut down the drawer a little for the 1u shelf to hold the compressor and reverb. Tin snips and sandpaper took care of that in short order.... The other thing I did was hook some hooks in my closet to...

    Hooking up effects I need some advice

    I was looking at different ways of hooking up the two effects I have (compressor and reverb) up to my mixer board. I was looking at looping them (aux out-compressor-reverb-effect in). But I also have two aux outs available. Would it be better to put each effect on its own aux out (aux...

    Going Mobile Project

    Alright..... I remembered what I did.. I used this cable I have a signal generator on my iPhone. I plugged the 1/4 inch end all the way in to a channel 1 balanced input on the mixer and had this type of output. It's muffled in my headphones too. When I only plug the 1/4 inch plug partway, I...

    Here's the new version of the studio as we speak.... The big advantages..... 1. I stay away from my wife's clothes closet 2. I can mix two instruments when I'm doing these 4-track collaborations. Before, I'd have to space a mic between my guitar and my voice since I could only use one...

    Well...... those belts were truly a pain to change!!!! I made sure the cam slot was engaged when I put it back together.... of course (just my luck....), those jumpers didn't all stay attached..... They don't call me Shakey McShakeson because of my good looks..... I ended up getting it all...
