The Dimarzio Super 3 is a good choice (the one that was stock in the HM Strat's) Another one, if you can find one, is the Duncan Trembucker 2 aka TB-2 (an emphasis on the 2 there). I had one mounted in a Fernandes Le-2XR and also an 86 strat (strandard trem). Both pickups have oodles of...

metal is back where it belongs - off of the mainstream radio. being off the radio gives the artists more creative room. Radio killed metal. The 80's killed metal. The fans of that era killed metal by making it a fad. None of the bands above killed metal - they were just doing their thing in...

I built the following desk around my console and, to this day, I still believe that is the best approach. The section on the right was originally going to have a table-style rack on the top, but I decided against it at the last moment and that decision has worked out well in my studio...

You have a Socket A Newer AMD CPU's are socket 754 or Socket 939.

Seems to be a bit of a misunderstanding lol I already have it spec'ed out to have at least 1.5GB DDR2, P4 Dual core, 10K RPM SATA, and an x600 ATI. My primary curiousity at this moment is the motherboard. I know who has the good ones for AMD CPU's, but have lost track of the intel platforms.

Oh yeah, I fully intend on building ti myself. I haven't bought an assembled PC since the Commodore 64 - ouch - I just dated myself lol. My main concern is the varying variants of the P4's out there nowadays and the motherboard chipset. I'll be running a Delta 1010 and a Delta 44. Latency and...

Upgrading to a new system. Unfortunately, I have all but completely lost track of what's good and crap in the ole world of Intel. My studio machine is an older P4, but the rest are current AMD's. So, what's your system specs (motherboard Brand/Model and memory Brand/Type would be wonderful)? TIA

No complaints with the Delta series from me. I run a 1010 and a 44.

In the early days, there was no standard on XLR pin assignments. You'd be surprised at the number of pieces out there that require pin 3 to be hot. In the case of the phantom power, alot of condensor mic will work that way since they're transformers (essentially) and the juice will pass either...

I use pegboard, but my room is large enought o where it has no impact. It's also a rather small piece, but there's about 100 cables hanging off of it.

This one is local for me. Dunno if he'd be willing to ship or not, but the price is alright. http://www.thetoe.cc/forum/viewtopic.php?t=3809

Just did this on one of our recordings: Korg Triton LE Recording a pianao part, but none of the piano's seemed to fit the part. Either they were too bright and ringy or they were to flat with no life. So we recorded a lively piano in stereo and a flat piano in stereo. I reverse phased one...

Well...... They were quite whacked, I'll give them that lol!!!! But The way you described it is almost how I built mine. Mine has an 18" false ceiling though. The walls are covered with a thin, but dense carpet that can be used as a wall covering as well as flooring albeit it's a bit thin for...

How quiet is it on the output? Is there any attenuation to the sound quality?

You're going to have to double frame the vocal booth to isolate it from the room. You'll lose about 1 foot in width & depth. Unless you are on a slab, then you will have to do the same with the floor of it (already will have to do the ceiling) which means about a foot from the overall height...

Cleaned up a little more this evening and ran the cables to everything and started wiring up the board and sig processors. Gonna be a loooooooooooooooong weekend :) As far as the construction on the desk, it only took about 9 hours to build it and polyeurethayne it. A 2nd coat of poly was...

Shellshock - I double framed it basically. I framed in a 1 foot section at the top. A box if you will and isulated it. I used a styerene style insulator for along each 2x4 (even between the sheetrock). This can be bought as a roll at Home Depot/Lowes. The floor is a concrete slab in there, so...

Adding on a control room was out of the question financially, but it's what I really wanted, and needed to do.....oh well, as usual, I do the best I can with what I've got lol. In order to maintain as much isolation as possible without reframing the entire structure and also to maintain the...
