Getting my VC1Q today (there's one in stock at the audio store) - May still need a couple more of some type, perhaps a presonus, but I wanted this one for my NTK and a cool tone. Can't wait to try it out...but I have a gig tonight...This weekend, perhaps.

I've got friends that use two mics when micing guitars...one on the neck and one near the soundhole...I''m ambiviant about this...here's why. It would seem to me that with possible phase problems and muddy tone, it might just make more sense to mic an acoustic once....after all, it's just one...

Anyone else notice that there's a new Masterlink OS - 2.1 They say no new features...just bug fixes. RB

After I bought my NTK about 3 months ago, I quit visiting this thread as much...just felt like I had hit my peak with microphones. And now I'm hearing about this Studio Projects mic...would you say that two of these would make good room mics? Vocal mics? I've heard that these things are...

I was going to use speed for recording on my Mackie HDR, because fo that mentality that "faster is better" - but then I started thinking...Technically, it's not much faster, and it's really a video standard, not an audio CD standard. - My thinking is I'll lose quality dropping from 48 khz to...

Having a slight problem here...I'm mixing songs...(demos, mostly) vocals and acoustic guitar.. - and I have Mackie monitors...they sound great, but what I'm noticing is a pronounced muddiness - or lack of treble. Sounds great on the monitors...so I'm thinking it's just my computer....but I'd...

I was at my Best Buy tonight...and I'm seeing albums mix and mastered for DVD audio now...DTS 5.1 if I'm not mistaken. This was the first time I've ever seen them...they were in the DVD section, though...which was wild. Pretty soon...those two monitors, whatever they are...will be...

I know the SM57 is the be-all end all for most applications, but in an effort to expand my mic palette a bit...when shopping for two new mics I chose to go with the Beta57A - a. I'm hoping to get a better overall response... b. I'm hoping for a slightly higher end, esp. on my guitar amp...

I had a drummer ask me this question...he's got clear tom heads, but he's going for more of a blusey feel, so he wants to replace his clear tom heads with coated ones. And since he's recording...he was wondering if he should stick with the clear ones for now or go to the more "papery" sounding...

I was on Weezer's band site, and they've updated their gear info list. (FYI, they have an incredible website and should be what ALL band websites are like) - Apparently, during the tour this summer (a low key money losing promotional tour) - they decided to save money and space and go all...

I've recorded seven songs for a friend. I used 3 mics...2 on the acoustic and one on vocal. Due to circumstances, the vocal mic also picks up a good chunk of guitar. It's almost to the point where I leave the vocal mic up and just bring the guitar mics up 60-70 percent to add some depth, but...

I'm thinking of going with a Mesa Boogie head. Lots of my favorite bands use them. It's a more intense tube sound, and there's a lot of configuration/channels...I see one has 3 seperate switchable channels. (If it sounds as good as my POD tries to emulate, I'm sold) Question...What's the...

Can anyone provide me some insight on the following issues. 1...which HD's are you using that are QUIET (last one I had spinned so loudly, it overpowered the PS fan, if that's possible) 2...would 5400 RPM vs 7200 RPM make a difference (noisewise, that is) - Thanks - I realize this is...

Today, I picked up a used Taylor Koa guitar from my used guitar dealer. (well, it's getting a rare-earth pickup installed, so I won't own it till friday) In my mind and ears, it blew away everything, including most of the Martins. (every Martin I tried, in fact) - I didn't even want to leave...

All right....I'm running inputs into an ADAT using whatever (ELCO/digital) - using either a digital board or some board with bad preamps that I don't want to deal with. Now, I would assume that I would plug a preamp directly into the recorder when possible. However, this will not be possible...

I posted this in mixing/mastering, but it may have been the wrong forum. I'll try here. Has anyone tried them both? I have Event 20/20's, but I think they tend to rattle a bit too much on low end. (I'm always hearing the cone make funny noises on the bass - that's what I get for loaning them...

Has anyone tried them both? I have Event 20/20's, but I think they tend to rattle a bit too much on low end. (I'm always hearing the cone make funny noises on the bass - that's what I get for loaning them out) But I've read very good things about the Mackie monitors, so I'm wondering if...

Hey guys...my song finally got posted to MP3.com - Fall Into Memphis www.mp3.com/ruebarb I don't know if it's my computer speakers (subwoofer up too loud or what) but I'm not entirely happy with it...I tried adjusting some EQ before ripping.... I feel like there are bass overtones on the...

:eek: I went to a demo of these two products last night in Minneapolis...I've got to say that they look pretty sweet, especially when working together... Plug-in's still look a bit light (there's probably a few more since the press releases) - and the cost is probably way above the average...

Well, my ADAT has been in repair at Alesis HQ for 7 weeks, no reply, and the tech line routes to a voice mailbox that is full...I am now bordering on the pissed, and when that happens, I start to boycott. (I would have gotten it repaired here, but all the guys here told me to send it to...
