A U87 would be SWEET. I'll have to keep my eyes on ebay, I see one on there now for 2100 with 2 hrs left. Thanks for the advice, -Barrett

Awesome, thanks a lot. I'll have to give him a call!

After moving and getting my finances settled I finally stabalized my cash situation enough so that I can start buying some mics. But I'm a bit torn, so I'm looking for some advice.... The low down: I have around $2,000 to spend. Mics I already own: -Groove Tubes Gt 67 -Rode NT1000 -Cascade...

How much reduction are you getting? Also try a longer release time, somewhere between .60 seconds and 3 seconds. But I wouldn't suggest using a longer release if you getting more than 6db of reduction. I aim for 2-4 db. Hope this helps, its an awesome compessor for tracking and mixing too (what...

"Recovering" riiiiiiiiiiight... ;)

If only I had $1900 and a pickup truck....

I'm starting to demo with a friends band for their new EP and don't feel like spending a lot of money on tape so were gonna just do some live 2track stuff for now and I thought I'd snag some of these cheap reels...

You're not looking to sell piece by piece are you? I've been looking for a decent mix down deck. -Barrett

Hey I need to convert some AIFF files into u-Law files...anyone know a free converter? I'm pretty sure quicktime pro can do it, but its like 30 bucks and I'm pretty sure this is the only time I'll need to convert to u-Laws.

Because it would be awesome to be able to utilize every room in the house. From the basement (dead, super dry) to the Main floor (hardwood floors, high ceilings, Big open rooms, very lively) to the upstairs (a mixture of the two, some rooms have carpet some have wood floors, some big rooms some...

I've had a guitarist come in that by habit would alway put his iPhone on top of his amp....why he did this I have no idea, but it was a pain in the ass to deal with. Before every take I'd have to get on the talkback "Hey man, can you get the phone off your amp I'm getting interferance and I can...

We've already painted rooms, ripped up carpets, put other smaller holes in walls for Internet cables...I wouldn't tear through the house just because he told me to have fun :laughings: But thanks for the heads up

Our landlord told us to do what we will with it and have fun....How much is this Bidford?

I wasn't going to run anything between walls, just along the inside of the interior wall. I'll be able to take this out very easily when we move.

Hey guys, I just moved into a house with 5 of my friends, everyone plays music (there are 2 bands that live here) and I brought all my recording gear and set up a control room and a spare living room. I'm just wondering what would be the best way to run cables through the entire house... My...

Yeah, I know what it is, thanks for the clarification though. :D I just figured it was something he rigged up and it could have been a box made of sheet rock or a plastic storage container which in both cases would probably be doin somethin funky to the sound ( maybe itd sound pretty cool though)

What is this "small soundproof enclosure" you say you put the amp in? I would just lose the enclosure, most likely its not helping you out. Use the room you have and if the room sounds like crap try another room. Make sure your gear sounds good, get up close to the amp, like a foot or two away...

I thought you said you didn't play the drums!

I have a friends that keeps them a good 5 inches apart. I always laugh when he plays drums cuz it looks like something outta peewee's playhouse with the things flying up and down :laughings: He's a good drummer though, he's a jazz guy so he only uses it for hi-hat steps to keep tempo basically...
