I own 2 nt1’s and a similar design nt2, they are so early that even rode hardly remember them. I had one fixed a few years ago and they found the required transformer in someone’s desk draw ? The 2 nt1’s are slightly different but are similar age. They sound very good, similar to a Neumann...

I have a lot of younger engineers come in and they all have had the protools brain wash, usually because they have been to an audio school. I then watch them constantly pay out for updates etc. I just use reaper. Studio one looks good and I have had clients use it, I have also used Harrison...

I have 2 x 6mm glass, they are mounted in separate frames, the wall is twin stud wall. The glass is mounted in neoprene rubber. I did angle both sheets of glass in opposite directions, I don't know if that made any difference? If there is a band playing in the recording area and I am in the...

I am interested in lots of inputs and outputs because I record a lot of bands live in the studio, my favourite recording method. Therefor I often have 16 to 24 channels recording at once. Also during mixing in the computer I am keen to get the Reaper ReaInsert happening so I can use my...

So Jimmy Page was looking amateur using the blankets in the studio? Use what ever works, when I am doing live band in the studio stuff I build enclosures around amps of sheets of sound deadener, sheets of wood, road case lids, whatever I can find. No one sees it on the recording. Alan

I am looking at all the gear in the studio that never gets turned on any more. Should I sell it? Well, it's not worth anything, who wants a load of old gear? What am I going to do with it when one day I'll retire from the studio? No one will want my old Cr#p. Well the answer folks is that...

Thanks guys, I think this is the way I am going, just waiting now for my studio income to catch up with my spending LOL, I took a hit with the lockdowns but it's slowly on the recover. I am also waiting for Presonus to catch up with the M1 / Big Sur issues, my new setup is planned to be a M1 and...

Hi Dan, Sorry this has taken a while, I seemed have overlooked this forum for a while. My remote has an after market power supply that I bought because I got hold of a remote that was missing the original. As long as the voltage is correct and the pinout is correct you should be right, there is...

Hi, I usually use windows machines in the studio, not that I am anti mac as I have used macs and windows machines since they turned up. After the Atari 1040 LOL. So I don't want a mac v PC discussion. My moto is that the computer is a box full of components made to do a job. I recently...

The Glyn John method relies on a few things, Good Room, Good kit and good player. If you don't have these 3 things it does not work. I have used it with the 4 mic method, sometimes it works, usually when it does not work its the drummer being in consistent in the way the drums are hit, or the...

Hi, I am in the process of building a new studio computer, when quoting I suggested windows 10 pro, but the computer shop suggested windows 10 home would be fine. Is there any reason to use Pro? This is a off line studio only computer, no internet, no office, only DAW audio. Opinions Alan

Replace brick with ADAT. Mind you I wanted to do this to them when they first came out. Alan

Hi All, What I am trying to figure out is is you can lock 2 or 3 tracks together so if you edit one of the tracks it edits the locked tracks. For example, the bass is recorded on 3 tracks, microphone, DI and a track via analog compression. If I want to edit a bad note I have to keep selecting...

I realised that I have not shown an updated pic of my studio for quite some time (also need to update my web site LOL) only had an Iphone to take the pics but here they are, both rooms, control and recording. Alan

The impact on the music industry here (Australia) is starting to take hold. I’m just a small player but so far for me I have had 2 well paying live sound gigs cancelled in the last 2 days. I play in several bands and so far lost 1 gig with more to follow I am sure. My saint Patrick’s day gig...

Moneys worth LOL License is US$60. It is the best value for money out there. Unless you are saying it should be free? Alan.

I always use the method of dragging the route icon onto an empty track. You then click on the route icon on the track you want to go to the bus and de-select the tick that send that track to the master stereo bus, the track then will only go to the master bus via the bus (track) you created. Its...

Have a look at this, talks guitars, amps, Drums etc, but makes a great point about the quality and sound of instruments being the main thing about getting a good sound. Talks about amps also and about getting good amps sounds at lower volumes. I think you will find this interesting. Rick's...

Just came across this on another forum Welcome To X32ReaperAutoMate! – Professional Mixing Automation System For The X/M32 with Reaper™ Funny I was thinking of selling my X32 because I bought it for live mixing but I nearly always use my QSC Touchmix16 as its easier to carry. I may keep the X32...

Me too seeing it's been 5 years since he got it.
