    388 User Leveling up to M3500

    I just read this and it's exactly what I'm trying to understand and try. Thank you so much for posting! I think terminology is getting swapped around again and again and it's causing me problems with the big picture -- since this picture is a lot bigger than the back of a 388! What I need is a...

    I think we are beginning to use language that's different form the manual (which I'm trying to read at the same time) so this is all getting confuddled ;) I see and understand the "channel inserts" -- no problem there, but I think it's a bummer that they require y cables. No one still has...

    The Fulltone Tape Echo is a guitar pedal. So in order to interface it with line level gear, one needs to use a Reamping device in order to change the input to Hi-z

    Cheers man. I appreciate hearing about your setup. Are you using group send/returns or busses to compressors? This is what I'm struggling with and I feel like keeps getting lost in the thread. I found one video on YouTube that was sorta dealing with this, but the guy was using all stereo comps...

    So a single channel compressor can work on multiple signals? Does the MS3500 have these buss inserts of which you speak? Do you have to make stems in a certain way to keep the insturments and frequencies similar?

    So Alan, I reviewed your website and I think I can certainly learn from your workflow based off the images of your setup. Q to both of you...and the meat of what I'm not understanding: what does Brauer mean when he says he uses his 4 busses to A/B compressors?? I'd rather not have the LA-4A...

    Yes the guy I bought it from said it was night and day difference in quality over the other noise reduction quality. Thanks for these words. Hope it works when I finally switch it on!!

    That's super helpful info. Glad to know it. I don't even know it the damn things works. I bought the board and the deck with remote and all snakes/cables in upstate NY about a year and half ago and they have been in storage while I get this new room/setup completed. If it doesn't work or gives...

    I need time to digest this, but thanks to both of you for contributing. sweetbeats -- I'm not confused about Reamping, I need to use the Little Labs Redeye in order to take the signal down to a Hi-Z, I'm not sure you quite understand ;) Regarding the tape machines in the workflow. Tape...

    388 User Leveling up to M3500

    Yeah I don't think I'm up for the course on parallel compression. My whole approach is to keep things as simple as possible -- which is why I loved the 388 If anyone is running AUXs out of their M3500 (or equivelant Tascam boards) to outboard and bringing in back in on the actual channels, I'm...

    I found a thread on Gearslutz where they are discussing using the Fulltone Tape Echo with a mixer. Dude says "aux send -> Reamp -> TTE -> DI -> mic in on console" He's leaving out that it's a stereo output. So am I understanding correctly that if I want to use this as a delay/echo (and bearing...

    388 User Leveling up to M3500

    So...adding to my confusion, I just found this on page 21 of the manual: "Certain devices, notably graphic EQs and compressors/limiters, are designed for in-line or insert use, dedicated to one instrument at a time." The 8 Group outputs do have inserts. The manual seems to want the user to use...

    388 User Leveling up to M3500

    Totally, I'm sorry for not doing that before. I am re-reading the manual of the M3500 now as well. I appreciate the help and input. To add more context so this thread may be helpful for others down the line, the project studio is a single room (multi purpose recording and mixing) 15x19 with a 9...

    388 User Leveling up to M3500

    Excited and thankful that others are using it/interested. So here is the hardware I'd like to set up and leave "plug n play" as it were. I have a DBX PB-48 that some of this stuff is already connected to in a rolling rack. One thing I get confused about is when I read things like Michael...

    388 User Leveling up to M3500

    Just curious how many folks here have a setup based around an M3500 and tape? I am completing reno of a garage studio and I'm a little freaked by the M3500 manual. I have only ever used compression via the send/returns on the back of the 388 and never really used hardware reverbs/delays patched...

    Irregular Corners Due to A Frame Ceiling and Treatment

    Yeah there is a heavy wife factor over here as well. This is not just my room since it's only a 900 sq foot house kitty corner ;) That's why I'm hoping to get some folks to add images. I pinged a rep at GIK I was corresponding with on email to respond here. I'm not adverse to buying some more...

    Irregular Corners Due to A Frame Ceiling and Treatment

    Ah, ok I can visualize that based on some of the images I ran across Googling this stuff. Thank you for chiming in. So, in that instance, filling the bottom of front corners all the way up to the straddled trap (or panel...whatever you want to call it) but not going all the way up to the top on...

    Irregular Corners Due to A Frame Ceiling and Treatment

    Thanks for the response. Would it be possible to add a photo or two of something close to what you are referring for the top (irregular) corners? It seems very straightforward to cut Owens Corning into triangles to stack below and above the GIK stuff that's already there. I have no idea what...

    Irregular Corners Due to A Frame Ceiling and Treatment

    Hi All, I've just completed a reno on a detached garage and I'm looking for advice on sound treatment. I'd like it to be an all-in-one tracking and mixing room. The room is 19 ft long by 15 ft wide. It has an A frame ceiling, with the center beam 10 ft high, and the ceiling is 7 ft high at the...
