Wow, thanks a lot Lee for taking the time to write all that! I'll try to answer some of your questions. Budget: For this one, the budget is as low as possible, since the money would be coming out of my pocket, and the few I have I spend it on gear. :p The Decca tree seems like a good...

Of course it's a lot easier if you live in a third world country (Bolivia) where no one has the slightest idea about audio, and those very few who do change a shitload. Those recordings from the other post, I made them for free, to give them a sample of my work. After hearing that they decided...

Well, it's not really 24 channels, but 24 inputs. It has 8 mono channels (with mic preamps and direct outputs), 4 stereo chanels (only 2 with mic preamps) and 4 stereo returns. So the real XLR phantom powered, mic preamp´d channels, are only 10. And I'm going to be playing... drums probably. I...

Hehehe, I'll tell you my secret, but don't tell anyone :p Actually I'm not "affording" it. They aren't charging anything. It's like a favor exchange thing. They are doing this for me and I'm recording them a CD. They aren't a professional orchestra though... It's more like a comunity orchestra...

If you indeed have individual mikes for snare and toms, move the mikes closer to the cymbals. You could also compress the overheads using the kick mick as a sidechain. It compresses the signal according to the sidechain signal, so when there is a kick played, the OHs will be compressed a lot for...

Hi guys. Here is the deal. My band is going to have in a couple of months a concert with a 90 piece symphonic orchestra, and I'm working on the sound design for PA and Recording it multitrack for a DVD. I'm going to make two sound designs: An independent: No financing, using most of my...

When I saw the U87, I didn't even have to look at the other options.

Dig a hole in your garden and bury them for a couple of years. When they go out they should be pretty rusty, green, and dampened.

This one is a winner. A day ago was at 130$ but it's still a huge bargain

This is the winner.

Fuck the 990 and 991!!!! Get THIS!!!!!! 130$!:eek:

This one is a pretty f*cked up deal! Those who can, get it now! MXL 992/993 = 130$ (before sale was 300)

Not sure about that... Behringer for example always out-features their rivals. They always have way more features than similar products costing twice. I love behringer, but they are not pros :)

WTF? MSH drum pack? Am I missing something, or you just confused the naiant mikes with the Karma Micro? If you are talking about the karma micro, it's also a good suggestion. You get 7 really cheap all porpuse mikes, that you could use for example for toms, and snare, and get a better mike for...

Most audio gear should have something like this:

The urban legend is that you can put a nail in your wall with a SM58. SM57 is pretty much the same so you should be fine.

Get a standalone recorder. One of those 16 channel workstations. That should leave you a lot of money for mikes. And get the Rode NT5 for overheads, SM57s for snare and toms (maybe one mike every two toms), and the AKG 112 for the kick.

Try something like the Shure pack. Not the PG one. The one that is a Beta52, and 3 SM57s (with their drum mounts). You might wanna get an extra SM57 or two if you have many toms. And get a good pair of overheads. Like Shure SM81s, or Rode NT5s.

I have the same ZBT you have, except I got the whole pack (hh, crash, ride and china). The usual is tape. I don't know how it's called in english but it's the tape you use with cables, to aislate one with the other. Check it out here, if you look close enough you can see the tape in the crashes...

There is no "zero racks" option...:(
