    Tascam 388

    I now have it sitting in my room. The only tape I have is the tape that was in it when given to me. What's happening when I hit play on it is that the reel on the right is jumping up and down and making loud noise(think Linda Blair in the Exorcist) It appears to me that the reel on the right...

    Tascam 388

    A friend of mine has an old Tascam 8 track, model 388 sitting in his room collecting dust. He's not sure if it works or not. I remember being over there a while ago, we turned it on and when trying to play the tape it made a loud weird noise. He wants me to take it and try to get it fixed up...

    Snake

    Alright, so I need to get a snake. Based on a lot of reviews on various snakes, they seem like they're all made cheap and one of the inputs always goes out. I need only 8 channels, but I figured I'd go ahead and try to get a 12 channel snake. Any suggestions on brands or anything. I was...

    Talkback

    Alright, so I have the HP4 headphone amp that I use with my Firepod. If I bought, say that Behringer Mini Mon where would I place it in the Firepod-Headphone Amp-Monitors chain?

    Talkback

    I thought about that, it's just sometimes I don't really have a spare, but now that I think about it, it's a rare occasion that I use all 8 pre-amps at once.

    Talkback

    Ok I have a Presonus Firepod, and for the past year all my recording has been done in one room so there has been no need for talkback. Well, I'm about to have a seperate control room and I need a talkback function, but I don't want to spend all the money on the Presonus Central Station. Does...

    Old house

    I'm moving into an older house, I'm guessing it was built in the 40's or 50's. I plan on setting up a studio in part of the house but I have a small worry that because it's such an old house, the wiring might be old and dirty causing some undesired noise and buzzing through amps and recording...

    Using a Limiter

    That's exactly what it was, I had my output gain on my compressor set way too high before using the limiter, but it's all good now. Thanks alot.

    Using a Limiter

    I downloaded a limiter program to use on my overall mixes. I applied it and I really like what it does as far as making the waveform consistant and the sound a little bit fuller, but my only problem is that it seems like I can hear cymbals and various instruments, especially higher frequency...

    Drumagog for PT LE 6.1???

    No way. You do not have to spend hours with drumagog, just takes a little tweaking to be able to pick up every hit, and not pick up hits from other drums when your trying to work on the snare or something. It gets super easy and stress free when you use actual triggers instead of microphones...

    Opinions on compression and eq

    I would like to know where most of you stand when dealing with compression, eq, etc. Do you feel that every track in a mix should have compression applied to it, including guitars, cymbals, etc. or do you feel that can ruin a mix and some tracks should be left raw? How about EQ. I personally...

    Pointers?

    Alright so I'm working on a mix for a band, and I've gotten to a point where I'm just not completely satisfied with how the mix is coming out. For one, I feel like it's kind of dull sounding, especially listening to it in my car, it just sounds so "flat" and unlively. What are some steps I...
