bass emphasis Buck, I was having a problem with too much bass when playing songs back on a system other than the studio monitors. My pro friend found via his spectrum analyzer that there was a big hump at 40K, and we adjusted accordingly on the 1/3 octave EQ. There were other areas also out of...

have spare parts handy! I like my Event 20/20 bas, but today, when I had a pro come over to run Pink Noise through them, I learned a fact of studio life: After getting a pretty flat line with the pink noise, he played a test CD through them, with tones in various octaves, etc....and the...

New band name Here's a term that's been in the news, and is one of those newly minted words that receives a lot of airtime on our so-called "news" reports: Ladies and Gentlemen, lets have a big hand for...SHOEBOMB! Yaaayyyyyy!

Now we're cookin' Gidge, thanks for suggesting the AT Pro 25, I obtained one, and combined with the DI bass signal, I'm much happier with the bass sound.

Aaarrgh! Patch bays! Well, I actually fiddled with my Neutrik patch bay this afternoon, and was able to bring the R/L main outs of my mixer up to patch. But when I tried to add the inputs and outputs of a cassette deck via patch cables, I could only get the R channel to send signal to the deck...

Patch Bay info Thanks very much for posting that, C. I'm taking it with me to the studio today and maybe I'll get things up to patch. I can usually understand most of this stuff, but for some reason I have had a mental block with this one little piece of equipment. I think this will help more...

where d'ya get this stuff? Can anyone suggest a good source for cleaning supplies (Lint-free chamois, pure alcohol, etc.). As well as a source for idler wheels for ADATs? Thanks!

Thanks to all who responded to this question! Just to be more specific, my bass player runs an Alembic bass with active p/u's, and a 5-string Music Man bass through her Hartke 3500 top into a Genz-Benz cab w/4 x 10's and a tweeter. The Alembic has what seems to be a built in parametric EQ, so...

Thank y', thank y' very much! Thanks for the info, Bear!

I'd like to hear what all of you out there use to mic bass guitar amps. AKG D-112? EV RE-20? Any others you like? Would an SM-57 be acceptable?

Contacting Alesis I wanted to get a copy of that ADAT video for reference, but the e-mail I send to Alesis (both parts dept and their general address)keeps getting bounced back. Do they have a new e-mail address?

Bear, what mixers would you suggest as an alternative to the Alesis Studio 32 at a similar price point?

The pro I took a course from advised me to use Sony tapes in the ADATs.

Fortunately, the pro I took recording lessons from had me bring my ADATs in to him, so he could show me how to do the maintenance, including cleaning the heads and guides, as well as replacing the idler wheel. Mine work fine.
