Currently I've been using a pair of AT4033s for drums overheads. I like the way the mic sounds over my ride and lower toms (left side), though it always has picked up too much sizzle from my hats and head noise from my higher tom, in any position with a good overall balance (right side). Even...
Alesis ADAT XT20 20bit multitrack with 543 drum hours. Great working condition; pics availble. I am selling the machine and power cable, nothing else sorry. Selling due to the fact that I do not need as many tracks as orignally planned. Make offers via private message or email. I will consider...
I picked up 2 MXL V63s at mars to day for just over $60 a piece. Supposedly this mic is supposed to replicate an open vintage sound. So far so good. I really do think it sounds open and transparent. I came home and mic'ed up the pair of bongos (Toca Traditional Series) that I just got and was...
I'm in quest of a Ghost console and need to find a couple more online sites to get used gear. I contantly check eBay, Digibid, ProRec classifides, the used gear forum, etc. Need to know of a couple more places to go. Today I'll have the necessarry cables, patch bays, racks, etc. so I can track...
I've finally decided to retire the 01V. First off I need more space and routing to go to the ADATs. Second, I feel that the pres are holding me back, I want better ones. Eventhough the 01V would make a great live mixer, I need to sell it to pay for a new board. :(
What I really need is a board...
Its that time of year again. Colder weather is coming back so I'm taking a break from the cars and getting back into the music/recording hobby. :D Anwyay, I need some advice for mics. I really should begin to add a few high quality end condensors and some speciality mics for specific...
First post in a loooong time. :) Anyway, I am in the process of getting new gear to complete my setup. Ideally, I would like to have a small basement studio for recording demos and high quality recordings. For starters I am using a Yamaha 01V dumped into a Sek'd Prodif analog/digital card and a...
Okay, for toms, which would everyone here prefer? (I'm guessing you all are gonna say the 421s, right?) My situation right now is to either buy more C418s, which I have one of and like, or go all out and get the Sennhiesers, which I've never had the chance to use. Thanx for your input!
Hey, just thought I'd share something interesting. I just went to a clearance sale at Mars and luckily enough I found a mispriced Sek'd ProDIF (ADAT i/o spdif i/o and analog i/o card) for $79.98!!!!! HA! They gave it to me for that price too! Thats some sale. Anyway, just keep an eye out for...
Just wanted some info on alternatives to SM57s. I'm looking for somethin thats a little more contoured for toms in general, but do not wanna spend $300 a mic on 421's. Even the Beta 98s are pricey. ( Like $280 each?? ) Anyway, I've seen some mics from AT and Sennhieser that seem comprable...
Im looking for that nice tight Carter Beauford sound. Does anyone have any suggestions or tips to push me in the right direction? I know I won't get quite the sound Im looking for cuz Ive got a really big snare. Anyway, I used a condensor (CADE100) which added lots of hiugh end in but it still...
Some idiot stuck their finger into the tweeter of one of my MPS10s. Now it has a dent in it seems like 10k+ is gone! Is it just me or is this what happens when your tweeter is dented??? What do I do?? Anyone know where to go, or who to contact about repair, cuz Im not gonna ship the whole thing...
Any suggestions on mics for recording motivational speeches?? Currently the ideal condensors that I have are an AT4033 and a CADE100.
P.S. Any Compressor settings for this type of recording would be appreciated. Thanx in advance guys!
Within the first year or so of doing business with these guys, I was absolutely pleased. My catalogs were priority mailed! An my salesman knew a helluva lot, really! The beat any price I asked by 10% and were always extremely fast with inquiries via email and phone. So, 'bout 6 months ago, my...
