Been seriously considering the past couple of weeks switching out my 1604 VLZ for an AH wz16:2dx. Been hearing a bunch of good things bout this board and just wanted some last opinions (some reassurance). For those who know, are the AH pres just as quiet/quieter than the VLZ pres (I always go...

Sorry if I'm asking a stupid question, but I'm thinking of upgrading from a Makie to an A&H board. I know that there are a few different classes (GL, Mix Wiz., etc.). Do they all have the same type of pres, just different bells and whistles otherwise? Are the 16:2 and 12:2 basically the same...

Hey guys. I don't mean to hijak the thread, but since the CAD was mentioned, I was wondering if anyone knows how the m179 stacks up against the SP B3? I have a B1 that I'm pretty happy with and was looking at these two as another possible purchase.

thanks ms Are you familiar with the 4040 at all and how that sounds relative to the other mics. Another question... I noticed that I had to pump the gain a little harder for the 32 to reach the same level as the other condensers I was testing. Is this typical for this mic?

A friend just lent me a couple of KSM32s to check out. I thought I'd have fun and compare them kinda side-by-side to a B1, 4033, SM57, 603 (for giggles), an M201 (for more giggles), and some other dynamic beyer mic that I think was called a Revox but the name is scraped off (looks exactly like a...

I was wondering if anyone was familiar with this organ. My friend just got one donated to him and neither of us know squat about it. Is it any good. Usually when I think hammond I think b3. So I not certain what a cv is or a jr20. The other obstical I was wanting help with is that we don't have...

I would usually ask this in the "unicornation" web site but it seems to be down right now. I've never tried to use this plug-in ("Trigger") until this past week and I can't seem to get it to function properly. I was trying to get a recorded snare drum to trigger a sound in my jv1010 (I'm...

A little bit back I posted a thread in here about having owned a couple of Adats at one time that sounded noisy (not mechanical but actually going to tape). Well, a friend of mine decided he wanted to take a chance with the lx20 as he was just starting to get into recording. I asked him if I...

Thanks for the insight, guys. Really appreciate it.

Thanks for the input. I guess I was probably just the unlucky one and got two duds in row. I had the LX longer than the XT just for frustration's sake. Got the XT when I was first starting to get in to recording and it wasn't long before I moved into daw. Had major transport problems with the...

I use to own an LX20 and an XT20 for a while. Got rid of the XT20 first because I had issues with it fom the moment I bought it and now turn people away from a certain music store in Pa. for their poor customer service on the entire deal (sorry for the vent). But I also purchased an lx20 that...

hey donk, Yeah. The choirs have sung selections from things like 42nd St. or other broadway shows and arrangements or origonal pieces from modern composers (john rutter, etc.). I'm trying to figure out the legistics or leagle aspects of making CDs for these choirs and if I or they or anyone...

I'm not certain if this is the right forum to place this (if not I'll try reposting it somewhere else) but I figured someone in here might know. As an engineer, do I have to take care of paying royalties for choirs that I record. I usually dupe off less than 200 CDs and give them to the client...

Sorry for the double post but I just remembered one more question. Samples from libraries are more than just sound waves, right? They're proprietary? which means I can't just grab a library collection and load some waves (samples) into Digital Performer? Am I correct in this assumption that most...

thanks alot for the input ya'll! this'll at least get me headed in the right direction.:)

FWIW, I really was just trying to state what Bear said in the first reply (certain mics for certain applications) and thought I'd share my experience and mild surprise on the circumstance. I mean, I have this cute little Radio Shack mic that I've used on certain situations over my friend's U87...

Though I've been recording for a while and have composed a number of songs, I've never much played with samples/ samplers. The things I hear about them (like the orchestral libraries out there on the market) sound like they would make a great tool for the compositions I do. But I'm not totally...

Just got both of these mics recently and used them on a session the other day. Tried the B1 on acoustic guitar and it sounded really nice. Then we were going to track vox. She's a mildly gritty blues style singer so I thought it would be a good chance to try out the 4033. I had used one from a...

I've heard a couple people mention recently that they use a motu 896 and 2408 in their studio. I was just curious if anyone knows if these two units can be operated simultaneously (a firewire device and a pci device) during recording. I thought at one time I heard it mentioned that you couldn't...

Thanks so musch again, Flatpicker! Another fantastic post that gives me a better idea of what's going on between the two mics. I've really appreciated the responses. They're exactly what I was looking for. Thanks so much - David
