    more bang/less buck Hi Hat recomondations

    I've searched around and can't quite find a direction to travel. I'm purchasing a set of hi hats for a church praise band and would like any recomondations on a good sounding hi hat set that won't break the bank. Does such a thing even exist? I'm not a drummer so I don't trust my technique to...

    Quiklok OR120 20 space studio rack

    For sale is a virtually new Quik Lok OR-120 20 space rack. It's been in storage since purchased six years ago. Plans have changed. These are no longer made but in my opinion it bests anything they offer currently. Holes are drilled for casters and a top - neither included. A cable management...

    Yep you're right. I got them swapped in the previous post. I'll switch it so no one gets screwed up.

    Summing Mixer

    That looks pretty good. Three questions: 1. What 1/4 TRS jack did you use? 2. Any tips on working/drilling with the Middle Atlantic case? 3. and was it worth it? I'm getting ready to start mine in a week or less. Wish me luck.

    MXL 990 Modding Tell Me Everything!

    The first thing to do is take out the two innermost layers of mesh. There is a huge difference is made in that alone. If your brave, you can try to remove the little grill on the capsule. I didn't as it's too risky. Some have changed the shape of the brass metal ring around the capsule to...

    Apex 460 mod problem!

    Sounds like the tube was leaking DC. Happened to me once. Any chance it was dropped?

    Cat 5 Cable?

    I can't say anything regarding the line level wiring but the DIY braided CAT5 speaker cables illustrated here: http://www.venhaus1.com/diycatfivecables.html are the cat's meow. I actually made a pair and they really impressed me and an audiophile friend of mine.

    HHB pre / tube help

    I saw your thread wasn't getting much attention yet so I thought I'd jump in. I had a Radius 10 and thought it did a pretty good job. Mostly because it responded well to a tube swap. I think I used JJ Tesla's. I think you'll notice a pretty big difference over the Sovtek's. Another direction...

    Saxophone Microphone for Under £150/$250?

    +1 for the Naiant mic for this budget. I have a pair of the older omni's and figure they're similar to the current offerings. I used these for my saxes for quite a while with pretty good results. The number one benefit is it's omni so no proximity effect which will allow you to get the mic as...

    Dbx 160xt

    Hello, I thought I'd try here before I attempt eBay. I have two DBX 160XT's for sale. Both work great and look pretty good as well (minus a little rack rash). Comp 1's meter button is stuck in the "Input" position. Comp 2's suffers from a few slight nicks by the meter section. I'd keep them...

    Ev N/d457

    I don't know that particular EV dynamic, but I have several others in that series and they're all very good. And my limited experience with EV product support was painless. Probably worth it if you ask me.

    Rode NTK and Oktava MKL-2500

    I spoke with them on the phone a while back and apparently that wasn't always the case. After the controversy came to light, they became much more religious about including the serial numbers on their mics. Several from before were without serial numbers I am told.

    Rode NTK and Oktava MKL-2500

    I thought I'd try here before ebay. For sale is a gently used Rode NTK with shock mount, regular stand mount, cable, and power supply. It has an upgraded tube, though I don't know what it is. The paint has rubbed off the glass, though I will say, it sounds great. $325 firm plus shipping...

    Pop Filters: Metal Grating or Sheer Fabric?

    I lean towards the metal grated ones, but there is one drawback. You'll need to listen for wind noise whistling across the holes. If you notice anything, all you have to do is reposition the mic, singer, or windscreen. For instance, "OOOOOOOO's" in a project caught a lot of wind noise and we had...
