Hey guys, I've just built a Gyraf G7 and can't decide if it sounds good. Can someone please comment on how it sounds to them? I recorded the vocals for in this track to test the mic out. The vocal was compressed with a UAD 1176LN and EQ wise I cut about 3dB of 500hZ, bumped up about 1dB of 2kHz...

Hey Man, ta for the pics. Your studio looks a lot more professional than what I'm shooting for. The skinny on my space is that it's a tin shed with a small room built inside which I've fitted with some bass traps and absorption panels. I've done a fair amount of reading on studio design...

Here's a few updated photos of the studio project. I really need to do something about the tin to the right of my console. Surely it can't be good for my mixing. I have absolutely no idea what to do about it aside from making a massive panel to put there so I'll have put some time and thought...

Thanks for the feedback. I didn't spend much time mixing the song as a whole, just trying to get a good female vocal recording. I'll play with the panning next time I'm in the studio. I could probably double the guitar and offset each take 10ms left and 10ms right to create some width in the mix...

You say it was recorded in a studio in London but, seeing as this is the mp3 mixing clinic, where was it mixed? I haven't listened through my monitors, just my laptop speakers so I can't give a definitive critique although I will say I had to really strain to hear the vocals. I would definitely...

Hey mate, it does take a bit of doing and it's hard for me to explain (also I'll need to refresh my memory :cool:). I'll be heading out to my studio this week to take some photos with my new camera so I'll make a little video on how to do it while I'm there. At the time I too was using a Delta...

Just a quick update, 8 channels and the master section are all now re-chipped and re-capped. There is no way I'm re-capping the rest of the channels. I'm about to start re-chipping the remaining channels. There's definitely a massive difference between the stick channels and the re-done ones...

I'm still working on how to record female vocals. I wouldn't mind some thoughts on vocals in this cover of What a Wonderful World. Vocal signal chain - Studio Projects C1 (replaced stock capsule with a 34mm) --> Alctron MP-100 preamp (UA Twin Finity) --> Terratec Mic-8 --> Reaper...

Looks great Shorty! I had previously followed a couple of threads of yours regarding these consoles. I've recently picked up both the M-3500 and the M-3700. I'm also in the progress of re-chipping the channels too. I'll be replacing U101 and U102 with OP275 is channels 1 and 2. I'll then...

Received a shipment of OPA2604 and OP275 chips this week. Still waiting on OPA2132 and NE5532. Already pulled out 8 channel strips, can't wait to get busy!!!

Make me an offer ;-) I can send you the balanced out boards (there are 2 on the kit) and a copy of the manual. Postage should be around $40 if you're in the USA.

Do you need balanced tape in or would you be happy with just balanced outs?

I also have both the M3500 and the M3700. I was planning on using best parts from both to rebuild a single M3700 (there are a few knobs missing here and there and some scratched paint) but now you've got me thinking otherwise. I would need to find another full meter bridge though. I also have...

This thread has been fairly neglected by me of late. Mostly because not a whole lot has happened over the past six months. I'm about to enter a fairly big step forward though. Now I've gotten the tracking room sorted I'm keen to start working on a mixing space. To kick things off, I've just...

The landlord hasn't see the inside of the room since we started renting ;)

While that does sound like a good plan, the unit is externally mounted and I can't get to it because it is inside a locked cage (adjacent to my shed) which the landlord uses for his personal storage :(. Nobody seems to be concerned about the impict the uni may have on the room acoustics so I...

The landlord won't replace it, I don't own the premises so I can't touch it.

Sorry, forgot to also mention that it is broken. OP updated.

Ha! They're actually on there pretty well. I don't think thery will fall. I didn't just glue the bottoms, I also glued the sides of the blocks together :). I do plan in nailing a selections of the blocks though to help give it extra strength.
