I have a wurlitzer 200a and the low G# keeps not working. I know it's not the reed as it works sometimes. I can't get the piano open - that's my real concern. I've unscrewed the 3 screws at the front and it kind of comes open but seems to be jammed. Does anyone own one of these who knows how...

Spoon Girls - a well established band from the UK are about to embark on their second album but they want your help. Please send them samples of anything you so wish - field recordings, your voices, noises, music, drum parts and anything else you can think of. In return you will recieve a free...

Hey. Just made this with some friends today. Any ideas? the link is http://www.michaelwookey.com/studiodemos/opinion Let me know what you make of it, and anything you'd do to it. M

Hey. I made this cover of my friends song - I really liked the original but I wasn't too keen on the production. When I made this I was in the process of moving house so I was very limited with what I could use. The link is www.michaelwookey.com/tobysillett/oldfriends I'd really appreciate...

This song has just been finished. A guy I know wrote it in 1979 and asked me to record it. I'm pissed off with the mix because it's not how I want it, but the guy paid me well so he has to have it his way. I'd be interested to know if anyone has the same criticisms as me, so listen away. The...

I just bought a rather rare optigan. Does anyone else own one of these? If so, I was just wondering if you'd like to have a chat about it and exchange hints etc on maintenance or whatever. Michael Wookey.

I want to get that classic 50's/60's drum sound, where it sounds very roomy etc. Examples of this can be found on various old recordings, -anything by The Doors, Buddy Holly and lots of stuff. I have a Rode NTK and 2 GT33's, and a twintrak pro. Any ideas on how to get the sound I'm after would...

Hi. I am currently working on my second album and I am trying to get a collection of samples together to use on my sampling keyboard - the trusty casio sk-1. I'd really like to get everyone to sing an A, in any register, so I can sample it - I want to use as many voices on one song as I can...

Regarding my last post: People, I am really sorry. It was a bit of an asshole thing to do wasn't it? Taking someones lyrics and saying they're shit just cos they didn't like mine. I know it's a rather immature thing to do, and for that I am sorry. I don't know why I put music on forums, or...

I bought a Focusrite Voicemaster Pro and it had a problem - I wrote about it in another thread, so I had to take it back to the shop. Instead of replacing it with the same thing, I have ordered a Twintrak Pro. I am really just looking for a decent preamp - not a compressor or anything like that...

I have just bought a Focusrite Voicemaster Pro and I'm very happy with all the features apart from the optical expander. It works fine - but whenever it is fully closed there is an audible whistle, from high to low, lasting about a second but depending on how slow the expander closes. It's...
