    Treatment for Detached Studio Build

    All - Attached is a floor plan with dimensions of a detached studio I am moving into early next year. I have 2 layers of interior drywall (with green glue in between, attached to 2x4 framing, batt insulation, then a stucco exterior on the N, S, and West interior walls. The isolation room also...

    DM-24 Known Bugs

    I'm finally getting around to upgrading to 2.1 on my DM-24. Besides the headroom issue, do you guys know of anything else to look out for or consider before I upgrade?

    DM24 users

    Everytime I've tried to upgrade the software, I've fried the chips somehow - both upgrades have required a call in to have them ship new ones out to me. I'm still on 1.6 because I can't afford to risk them going out again right now. I've had 2 power supplies and the power board (or whatever...

    ksm44 or akg414

    I'm probably out of my element, but if a 44 is anything like a 32, I'd take the 44. I've heard the 414 on a couple home recorded tracks and I can't stand the sound compared to my 32. I'd think the 44 sounds similiar to the 32 but I have no experience, so take me with a bricko'lick and a Sauza...

    Firewire card for DM-24

    So much for the Distressor. This is #1 on my x-mas list. You think they might develop this further? Like putting a pseudo mixer on it? They could sell plugins and mixermaps - kinda like the mixtreme. OK I'm dreaming. But still... This is perfect. My portable setup is starting to look...

    Tascam Forums Update

    I guess that's what happens when those goddam customers start getting out of control. :rolleyes: I might be digital but I'm still pretty bitter about some of the responses (or lack thereof) and elimination of the forum. Granted, the service department has always helped me out when I called or...

    Cheap Reverb I wish I had once again

    Not off hand, but it wouldn't be worth it anyways. It was cheesy and annoying, but for some reason it worked for me. Old PA heads would have exactly what I'm looking for though. Maybe I should just give my ears a break and leave the house to go look for one. Well, maybe tomorrow... :)

    WTB: Reverb (analogue)

    If it's in a mixer of some sort - tell me about it. If it's considered trash - it's what I'm looking for. If it's cheap - I'll probably take it. It it's a spring hooked up to a couple insandouts - I want to know. If it's digital - nevermind. I have a (99% of the time) working Lexicon...

    Cheap Reverb I wish I had once again

    I used to have this 70's style powered 4 channel mixer that was made by Yamaha. It had a crappy little reverb in it that I liked to use at times. Unfortunately, the wife and I had a rough bout a little while ago and I ended up selling the thing for $15 at a yard sale. Out of all the things...

    Sennheiser E609 Silver

    I picked up my silver in the middle of a session, so I haven't tried it on anything other than a Dual Rectifier - which it killed on - and a clean Mesa combo - which was pretty sweet. I'm glad to hear you liked it on drums as well, because I plan on using it there too.

    Need DA/AD Converter Recommendation

    Well, the good news is I got offered a fulltime position and a raise at work. The bad news is my solution cost a little more than hoped for. I ended up with a Delta 1010 and a little Behringer signal router (I can't bring myself to call it a mixer) that will do the job. A little more than I...

    Need DA/AD Converter Recommendation

    My mixer is going in for repairs, unfortunately. In the meantime, I can limp by with some sort of 2 channel converter that can spdif into my Mixtreme soundcard. I'll be able to limp by with monitoring via software, hopefully. Is there a box out there that can take 2 channels of line in...

    2 channel Mic Pre

    Maybe a used Mackie 1202? I just dumped one for 250, but maybe you could find one for 200?

    any experience with Sytek preamps?

    I got mine from Mike for under $800 including shipping, with the Burr Brown opamps. He said it was a sale and it wasn't on Ebay... I have a Tascam DM-24, and it's pres are good, but everything sounds much more pronounced with the Sytek. And it's so much better than the Mackie 1202 VLZ-Pro...

    Dm24

    On the arming issue: I don't have the Alesis, but I did get it working in Nuendo. I had to change the settings on the PC so Nuendo was "listening" to a specific midi channel. I then had to set the DM-24 to output the track arming signals that corresponded to Nuendo's. I don't know if the...

    I just found THE kit!!!!!

    lol. Leave it to a fellow Calgarian to put me on the floor. Next time I clean my toilet I'll be thinking of Vox squeaky cleaning his set with a toilet brush and some baking soda.

    I just found THE kit!!!!!

    I never thought the colors in the bottom of my toilet would end up on a snare drum... I think it's safe to say one of us needs to see a doctor.
