    Less is more?

    Here's the little rig I'm going to use for our next all analog project. It'll be a solo album by an old friend singing old timey blues tunes along with his resonator. Things like Bourgeoise Blues, Stag-O-Lee, Death Letter Blues and all that. Mono Nagra running 7 1/2 ips for a bit of grit, a...

    Tape Echo. How To Do It?

    Slapback delay at 7 1/2 ips plus spring reverb = instant Elvis on vocals Dodge. Well worth a laugh if you've got a springy. :p

    Why Analog?

    Hmm, well now, my first audio recording setup was an analog eight track with a 16 channel board and a VHS stereo video for mastering, the second was a combo of 16 track analog, 32 channel board and DAT mastering. Then I stopped for a decade. Then when I got back into it there was the Boss BR1600...

    Must have been the decade before the Saddam Hussain moustache era that we, ah, um, er, I went through. :p

    Last Cassette Release for 2009

    Here we are with the last 'obsolete and unloved' all analog cassette media release for 2009 that I've just finished making. David Carter's live to two track solo album called 'Small Fires'. Recorded on the Revox PR99 and assaulted with various helpings of spring reverb and tape echo. All hand...

    Egg-Bone Rollers

    Here's a four tune ep I've made on my Boss BR1600 over the last few weeks. I've made them up after listening to a bunch of old T-Bone Walker 78's and kind of got inspired. Really simple stuff. They've all been made the same way in the attic with a bunch of cheap mikes and all analog instruments...

    My 42B is deceased.....

    I'm pleased for you about that Pete. :) It would have been a bugger to be stuck with a damaged machine and no compensation. I guess you can let the remaining $2.77 slide in this case. :p

    Yippeeee....

    My recording buddy's wife was at their neighbour's garage sale. The neighbour said that there was some 'audio gear' that her now deceased husband owned that we might be interested in. $25 secured one of these... A '72-73 Sony TC-850 in good condition. After the deal was done, an elderly...

    Man, I used to love that song. I remember finding it in a book of guitar tunes and learning how to play it. I guess it was the melody and the performance. It sure as hell couldn't have been the lyrics. :rolleyes:

    HELP - Precision Bass has developed a warped neck

    Arrggghhh... the Prince of Darkness. I recall a few too many nights stuck out in the frost in the NZ winter freezing and pushing because the 6T, Lightning, Matchie or other notable (or otherwise) Lucas equiped rides had decided not to pass currents any more. So I thought stuff this I'll get a...

    Hey Dodge, I suck them into Creative Labs Wavestudio (which came with a Soundblaster thingo I've got on my laptop) as 44.1khz / 16 bit .wav files then save them off as 320 kBits/s 44.1 kHz .mp3's. Then I upload them to www.mp3.com.au. At 128 kBits/s they don't sound too good. It looks like you...

    Here's a couple we did in the mid nineties. Same band, similar circumstances, different kit. The band was called Trash and are personal favorites of mine. Trash were a three piece with drums, two guitars and no bass. This first track (Steamroller) was from an album made on my first analog...
