If you trust the reviewers on Musician's Friend, it looks like the Perception gets alot better reviews (you probably already spotted that).

Staley is hard to do, but this isn't bad, harmonies and all. I think most often people use the compressor as a limiter when tracking (or ride the faders or have a vocalist with excellent mic technique). This is still a rough mix right? It sounds like you can just mix the levels just fine and...

Audio Spectrum AS400 at Pizza Perfect where I call the orders to the customers.... jk KM184

what does scoops the middle and peaks the mid mean? I agree with the 421, (if you got one or can get one). I always liked it better on bass cab than the D112. Just try different mic positions with the D112 first.

Well, I guess I did learn something from this thread.

I just wanted to see what you guys would say. I don't trust smoke either.

Ebay 1176 Compressor Would you buy an 1176 for $1100 if it had gone through a fire, but came out "unscathed?"

It's pretty weird that I was just searching for a "Sytek" thread early last week and didn't find much recently...now this. I'm glad we can all get this stuff off our chests. My experience with Mike Stoika was very positive. It did, however have a problem with one of the channels sounding...

Same with me (Baby Bottle, Great River 1ME-NV, KM184 etc, Avalon 737) I sometimes get the persons' number and see if they are fo real or full of shite.

I bought a Baby Bottle on reputation and loved it. As one of their less expensive mics, it really is a great buy. It worked on my friend's vocals on his project I did a few years ago. Funny that I was auditioning a U195 at the same time amd we were comparing them for his vocals/acoustic...

Seeing that you said that this happens only? when you record, so I'm probably wrong about this....but! I had the same problem recording a Les Paul into a Moogie Mark IIC+, a lil distortion occasionally on the clean channel (when I played heavier) and I realized that my pickups were too close...

Looks fun. Can't wait to hear some clipppppps.

I see on your myspace page..."outboard....I love compressors". I also added you. You have alot of really nice stuff. Nice drums too.

I think I might go ahead and get the Roland expansion card so I can get the 1176 and L2A2 plug-ins AND have money to buy a Distressor. I have always kinda wanted that one from what I've read. I think I can get one for around $1000. I will also keep an eye out for a DBX. Any last thoughts...

Thank you all very much for your input. BTW, has anyone heard from Harvey or Fletcher lately?

this is home recording....save that stuff for your diary before you go to bed each night.

someone told me that since my 1880 doesnt record at 56bit or something, that the expansion cards won't sound like they should.....

The only way I can use plug-ins is if I buy a $300 card for my VS1880 and then pay more for the limited amount of plug-ins that are available. After more thought, I want a colored compressor, and I do think I will use it mainly for vocals. Any opinions on the EL Distressor or the 1176LN. I...

I bought a Gemini rackmount for $119 I think on ebay. It's been good so far...and autocue function is nice.

hahahaha for real.
