    Are real drummers "extinct?"

    This thread makes me think of this video clip. Buppa Po posted this at A+A so he gets credit for it. Funny, though. All-robot band plays Motorhead's 'Ace of Spades'

    Does anybody use or used to use Groove Tubes Model One mics?

    Do you use these Miro?

    71 JMP - screws for backplate

    It does. So between your two Marshall heads you're in amp heaven. Really impressive if that thing has the original tubes still in it. It looks very low mileage from the pic.

    Does anybody use or used to use Groove Tubes Model One mics?

    After a lot of research and reading I decided to buy one. Like anything else, it seems there are lovers and haters of them. I would like to use it for vocals, but have heard they sound great on guitar amps so I guess we'll see once it gets here. Pretty expensive for an amp-only mic, though...

    Are real drummers "extinct?"

    This ^^. On the Gear Page someone once asked about amplifiers and whether they would replaced by modeling technology. But then how far is the guitar (or other instrument) itself from replacement and errors in fingering and fretting and picking at that point? If you keep eliminating the...

    71 JMP - screws for backplate

    Fuuuuuuuuck me. Nice score, man! I have an '82 2204 but the backplates and screws are likely different. The blackplate on my head is a simple piece of sheet metal with holes on a 45 degree grid pattern. If this sounds like yours, I'll measure/photo them for you. They are the originals.

    What exactly is wrong with Behringer brand mixers?

    Certainly in some cases and if you gradually shift production to an existing manufacturer inflation will eventually catch up to your current profit margins. But until then, there can be a lot of money saved by overseas manufacture that can be unaccounted for. I give you the Harman group as a...

    control room 14x12

    Here is a 12'x13.5' control room with a high ceiling. Nothing too fancy but the peak ceiling (vaulted) is about 9-6": cloud over mix position (unseen), treatment behind monitors and on the back wall, bass traps in corners and treatment floor to wall every 2' o.c.(unseen).

    The studio is 100% complete, including acoustic treatments! Been a long time coming!!

    Agreed, it was a little hard to soak in the visuals, but nice job, New Guy. Looks great!

    What exactly is wrong with Behringer brand mixers?

    Weren't the original Berri comps non-Asian manufacture? Kind of like the Mackie products. I remember when Mackie was considered a great product which is why I bought a 24.8 and it has been a great board to me. And this is the same with a lot of other brands until they send manufacturing...

    Playing what you like

    When I played professionally, we used a booking agent. They required a set list, equipment list, and promo photo to market and book you at clubs. There was a 'bread and butter' set list most rock clubs expected but you could always throw in some originals or a few off-the-beaten-path songs as...

    -2. I don't even have a computer monitor hooked up to my system. I am in the complete opposite direction as you: I don't even have a computer monitor hooked into my system. If I want to know what frequency needs adjusting, I just listen for it.

    Recommendations on Inexpensive Tube Mic Pre-Amps

    I've only heard clips, but it gets a lot of positive hype for sure. I use Fletcher-era Joemeek products and they are nice.

    What exactly is wrong with Behringer brand mixers?

    +1. It is the way I learned and I have no desire to change it at this point in my life. I kind of admire the people who learned or evolved to learn in-the-box, but that will never be me.

    Money for one/two colored mic pre(s), what do I get, and where do I apply it?

    My chain is old school and I don't even have a monitor to see a sonic graph that I could post for you, but I can tell you by hearing both that the e609 is a little less detailed in the mids and highs than a 57, traits that I want to capture from my Marshall amp, so I switched them. I like it as...

    Money for one/two colored mic pre(s), what do I get, and where do I apply it?

    I use an e609 on snare because I didn't like it as much as a 57 on my amp. It sounds like this dry... https://soundcloud.com/seeker-of-rock/drumkit-dry
