    are TT patch cables ok to go into Samson s-plus patchbay?

    Bantam connectors are made to a different spec to the standard jack, therefore the reason you are not getting a good connection is that the end is a different diameter snd the Ring Sleeve Tip (TRS) spacing is slightly different. Even a mono Tip Sleeve (TS) jack would have problems due to the...

    The big world of live digital consoles

    I love it when you do a walk in live mix to find yet another brand of digital console that you have to get your head around. One advantage of an in house analog console with some analog out board is that it's easy to figure out. Digital consoles have screens, menus, function buttons, etc etc...

    Critique/comments on my future vocal booth please....

    Really 4 x 4? can't you make this a non square room? Creating problems before you start. The chart below will help. Remember the chart is ratios not measurements. Even making it a bit less square will help. Alan.

    Rockwool concerns for health

    Where are you located? Which country? Here is the spec sheet for acoustisorb 3 which is mostly what I used, but acousticasorb 2 is useful also. Be warned that you have a tough time cutting 3, I ordered it cut to size (no extra cost). I think the acoustic version of polymax is going to be a...

    Styrofoam walls and ceiling

    Invest in Polyester batts and not rockwool, no fibres and you can leave it all exposed, if you fix the batts with batons you don't even need to cover it with cloth. See the photo below, the wall is covered in high density polyester batts and that the colour of the bat. By the way the corner is...

    How To Check : Listening Room Frequency Response is Balanced ?

    Gee there is a lot of bad advice in this thread, shopping bags, toilet paper, EQ's on the monitors. This stuff does not fix a bad room, I hop no Newbie reads this and follows any of this advice. So speaker manufacturers design monitors, then run many many hours of testing so that someone can...

    soft floor, hard ceiling

    After putting the ceiling cloud above the mix position, try an office chair mat (large one if you can get it) or a sheet of wood under where you sit. Helps with not having the room sound too dead. Oh and protects the carpet. Alan.

    Your best tricks with acoustic guitar?

    I usually only have 1 or 2 different mics in the same place, 12 fret facing towards the sound hole at an angle. If you look at the example picture, there is an AKG and a fathead ribbon, but it does not have to be this combination. I record the mics to 2 separate tracks, then during mixing blend...

    Looking for a tascam msr24s power supply cable

    The dolby cards are behind the RCA panel. You take the screws out of the metal plate angle that runs across the top of the cards. You then with all the cables disconnected pull the cards out of the back of the machine. Oh the DBX version cards come out the same way. The problem with the dolby...
