    a booth for me and a box for my loud mac?

    good stuff guys- thanks. let me give you some background on what i'm up to musically and the general room situation. second floor- correct. the bedroom is probably a good candidate because it's the only real room in the appt that doesn't have dormers. (the ampeg in the pic is just a jet...

    a booth for me and a box for my loud mac?

    thanks guys! better late than never =) i checked those links- had the first one already and i guess i still need to poke around there. i think i'm more curious about treating the bedroom effectively now than boxing in the tower. i mean i'd like to do both, but the iso box at that second link...

    a booth for me and a box for my loud mac?

    damn! i just read the acoustics101.com site and now i'm thinking maybe folks aren't interested in commenting on my bedroom situation because it's just so lame compared to the ppl here who are building studio's. i feel like there's hope for that bedroom idea though- it's all tiny and echoey in...

    a booth for me and a box for my loud mac?

    no ideas? sorry to reply to my own post, but doesn't anybody have any suggestions for me? i'm thinking now that the best thing might be to foam up the bedroom- the lack of dormers make it bigger and i'd just have to tilt my bed up against the wall if i needed extra space. not sure of the...

    a booth for me and a box for my loud mac?

    hi folks- here's my sitch: PART ONE- THE COMP my new tower is a new 'windtunnel' g4 dp867. 5 fans in it and it sounds like a dustbuster when the aux fans on the powersupply kick in. so i want to put it in/under a box or something if i can because there are no closets anywhere near by and even...

    deciding on a mixer.

    tex, you probably meant that as a retorical question, but just in case you were genuinely curious here's my reasoning: it's not a question of whether it's complicated so much as whether it's relevant or appropriate. the site offers audio production tutes and gender is a _required field for...

    Rudy Van Who? or These Are a Few of My Favorite Things

    i thought i'd name drop just this once- as a way to introduce myself to the folks here since i only recently found out about this place. ready? okay, so some of my favorite recordings in terms of overall feel but production too would have to be.. Johnny Hartman & John Coltrane- actually, my...

    deciding on a mixer.

    nice thread roker, thx those courses like good solid everybody-ought-to-know-it-to-do-anything-really type stuff:) they shouldn't insist on you declaring your gender as part of the reg page though- that's an intrusion. age is fine, but nobody except maybe your doctor _needs to know your gender...

    is there such a thing as a good affordable mic pre?

    renting sounds like a good idea, as does that focusrite platinum- thanks natpub and roker. and int, thanks for your comments as well. i gather there are different schools of thought about color vs transparency in a mic pre. of course the at4033's aren't the best mic in the world so it...

    monitor recommendation: are those Behringer ripoffs a good idea?

    teasin' me!! =) i know- i should abandon my nic- i've been meaning to do it. i just started it as something famliar and easier to chat to somebody- it's actually from a harlan ellison short story- some future cats racing cars to the death and the young kid is taunting the grownup guy and...

    is there such a thing as a good affordable mic pre?

    michael- thanks again, those shopping sites are great. gidge, thanks for the product names- i was looking at that all-in-one joe meeks thing. seems handy. i liked the xlr input and i liked the spdif output too- i could go straight to my soundcard or my o1v's lightpipe with that! there's a ton...

    is there such a thing as a good affordable mic pre?

    thanks! so maybe i should just do the best i can with what i've got? are these focusrite Green series and the FMR's and such more for ppl with mics that cost way more than my at4033'? thanks for the shopping links those look great- damn this board is active as shit! i got linked here from an...

    monitor recommendation: are those Behringer ripoffs a good idea?

    my friend is gonna finally get real refs for his kit and he likes my event20/20bas monitors. someone pointed us at the behringer truth series but i was just reading here about some shadey shit regarding the company in general. also really curious about the new tr8's from event but despite...

    is there such a thing as a good affordable mic pre?

    i have a home studio setup with a new mac g4 tower, a motu2408, a yammy o1v, event2020bas, two AT4033's and an sm58. i'm producing lots of stuff but most of it dancy stuff with no recording involved- the o1v and the motu have been way overkill to this point. now i'm experimenting with...

    where's that long-ass thread with the eq/mixing advice?

    i had it bookmarked, but the whole bbs wasn't responding for a while and now i'm on a new mac and i can't find the tread again. i'm doing some brokenbeat dancy stuff to have some deejay friends send to their label mates for me and i have the opportunity to get some live players involved. i'd...

    advice needed: mixing/mastering a track to send to a label

    =) the song doesn't suck:) i'll definitely do that though, thx nave. i was just asking my deejay friend and he said we could check it out through the big system at the club where he spins on wednesdays as well. that plus a few home stereo's and my event monitors and headphones and my gf's car...
