I use the Swissonic AD mk2 converters and the sound quality is fantastic, but lately I've noticed that after several hours the unit begins to produce clicks that get worse and worse. If I power down and let the unit cool down..it goes away. I use the Swissonic's clock to keep my RME Multiface...

Would it be worth getting a Sansamp Bass Driver for recording direct bass if I already have a Langevin DCV? Do you guys think I'd get better results going from a Sansamp through the Langevin, or just the DI on the DVC ONLY? I know it's pretty subjective, but I'm interested in the opinions of...

For the past several months, I've been "first real pre" shopping. This was a sometimes painful process as I poured over reviews and tried out different products...yada yada yada.... I'm posting this because there may be some people out there going through the same thing. So in case you...

Does anyone know anything about a modifications that you can make to the MK-319 to make it sound better? Check out this link below.....the first reviewer mentions some kind of modification. http://www.harmony-central.com/Effects/Data/Oktava/MK_319-01.html "After modifications which resulted...

Ri-fucking-diculously expensive....that's almost $1000 for the pair. (and...no..I didn't buy them) http://www.scottomusique.com/articles/Enceintes_et_Amplis/Enceinte,YORKVILLE,yorkville_ysm1p.html ...the quote is for ONE monitor. I miss home.

I saw this power amp in an audio shop today for about $200 (170 Euros)...anyone know anything this unit. http://www.limitelectronics.co.uk/product_detail.asp?id=33 If I buy a power amp with 100w per channel (like the one above) and monitors that are rated at, say 70watts(like Yorkville YSM 1...

What exactly does "Class A" mean.....I mean as apposed to Class D...or any other class. I see a lot of manufacturers use this as a marketing buzzword, but how does that translate into the real world. I can't really find specific info on google about Class A electronics, so any links would be...

In my current signal chain I am using a Swissonic AD24 converter. It ONLY has XLR balanced inputs. I also have an RNC, which is an unbalanced compressor. If I bought the Avalon M5 mic pre and used the RNC for compression during tracking, how would I balance the RNC so I could use it with the...

What would a Neve 1272 mic pre be best suited for? Recording vocals, bass, electric guitar?? In particular : http://www.brentaverill.com/1272/ Also...anyone have an idea of how much more noise I would get from this unit after stacking more than 10 tracks...in comparson to the Great River...

I'm going to buy one of these two units. I'll be tracking lots of vocals, acoustic guitar, electric guitar......everything except drums, bass and piano with the whichever unit I choose. I've read that the Great River ME-NV1 was specifically designed to produce a lower noise floor which would...

When I engaged the phantom power (and crank the gain at about halfway) on my DMP3 I can hear a low level (and low freq) hum. It's barely audible, but after stacking a few tracks, it becomes more obvious....especially in quieter acoustic passages. When I use it without phantom power it's...

I recently purchased an RME Multiface/PCI card package and a Swissonic AD24 unit. Both have respectable clocks. The question is, which unit should I use as the Master to get the tightest possible connection? At this time, these are the only two units I need to clock, so I can't really justify...

From Swiss Sonic's website: "True 24 bit 7’th order delta-sigma ADCs with 64x oversampling." How does this affect sound quality?

I realize the PCI card is based on the Hammerfall Project (it's ADAT in IS full 24 bit), but can anyone confirm that the ADAT input on the Multiface is full 24 bit also...and not only 20 bit? I can't think of why this would not be 24 bits, but you never know....unless you know. I want to buy a...

I've been looking and all I see it $499. I know I've seen it cheaper than that before. Has anyone seen a better price? Simmons

Moderator: I'm not sure if this is ok or not, just let me know if it's a problem. I have an AKAI MPC 2000XL (immaculate condition) that I'll sell for 650 Euros (approx $760 US). It's currently switched for European current, but can be switch to North American current. I'll throw in the Iomega...

I realize there's a breakout box for the Delta 1010 only, but is there a noticeable different in the sound quality of these two cards? I imagine the conversion takes place in the breakout box (and that would be better), but would a computer really generate that much noise. There's a three...

These mics are both on the same ballpark in terms of price. Obviously, the Shure SM57 is the most widely used/most popular choice, but I was just wondering what you guys would pick between these two choices for micing a guitar cab (clean and crunch). Simmons

I going to purchase a pre amp next week. It will either be the Focusrite Voicemaster Pro or the Great River ME-1NV. I realize there's price difference and I realize the VM pro is pretty much a one trick pony....but it's a very fucking important trick. The vocals must shine and this is the...
