Hey Guys I have this AKG C577 condenser lavalier microphone that is left over in my church when we replaced it with a wireless. I'm considering selling it, but haven't got a clue what it's worth. Online it is sold new for 400 Euro's. Now I'm wondering what is this microphone worth? And what...

The title says most of it. I'm investing in my studio, just bought a the TASCAM US-1800 will soon buy acoustic treatment and the end of my budget is closing in on me. I'd like to be able to record two electric guitars and my drumkit (with recorderman technique) while we are all playing in the...

I'm looking for a good book about acoustics for beginners. I just lack the basic knowledge and find I have to much questions and to much holes in my understanding. MrWrenchy already recommended 'Acoustic Design for the Home Studio', but when looking it up I found so much books I thought one of...

Found it! And that didn't take long at all. He picked up this guitar in the store and new it was the one. It is the Taylor SBX-3, they do not make solid body electric guitars anymore but have made them for a while and it indeed has sustain that sounds more like a LP then a strat or telecaster...

I'm looking for an interace with more input channels to replace my M-Audio Fast Track Pro and found both the TASCAM and the M-Audio used for about 250 euros online. Is one of the two noteworthy better then the other, doesn't it matter, should I go for none of the two, should I keep saving money...

I have a not to big room, about 17 square metres, which I will be treating acoustically soon. I spared some money to spend and have about 200 euro's to spend on either Logic (right now I work with Garageband), studio monitors (right now I work with pretty decent headphones), an interface (right...

I'm in a band with this guitar player who is looking for the exact dark and rough sound of a Les Paul Guitar but can't get used to the Gibson bridge, it's in the way while strumming it wounds his hand while palm muting. I'm officially the drummer, but usually the guy who does all the technique...

Thanks Jimmy for your suggestion. Does the following picture capture the placing of the bass traps? @Jake, I was thinking of placing the monitors the way they are on this picture. (excuse my MS Paint skills :P) @ RFR, yeah it looks nice. It's like most of my house (and some women), loads of...

Two photo's of my studio for an impression...

Hey guys, I've been checking and loving this forum for a while now but never have done much posts. Coming year however I'd like to take my music and my studio to a higher level which brings me to quiet some questions regarding studio building and investments I have to make. This room has...

This might be a funny question but I was wondering if Straw Bales would work to absorb sound in a way that would make recordings better. I read about the soundproofing qualities of straw bales but that isn't same as acoustic treatment, if I'm right. A while ago I found this excellent graphs...

Hey fellow recorders, So I managed to put something online, and I really need some advice and expert knowledge. Two friends of mine and me did a semi-structured jam session and recorded the bass guitar, electric guitar and drums with two mics since my interface hasn't got any more channels...

Hey y'all, I've got a little problem with my Phonic AM844D mixer. Some of the gain controls aren't working anymore. They stay fixed at a real low Gain no matter how I turn the knob. I was thinking of fixing it with a bit of contact spray. But to be honest, I never used contact spray, nore...

Heya folks! I just got the great possibility to move to a house that is big enough to have one room for music without any direct neighbours. I'm planning to make that into my private homestudio. I'll post some pictures with questions about acoustic treatment later. Right now I'm thinking of...

I have Peavey PV 1500 Amplifier. Which I use in my PA system, which happens to be my band room monitoring at the moment. I like the amplifier, works nice, lots of power and sounds good enough, but the fan inside it makes a lot of noice which is annoying while I'm recording. I'm thinking of...

Hey Everyone, Not really sure where to post this, so I'm posting it here. I love to compose and make music, have used GarageBand for a while since it came with my computer. But I switched to Cubase 5 LE lately. I'm searching for a nice soundpackage with orchestral sounds, so in stead of...
