    Ethernet vs audio

    I should know this, but i don't. Is there a risk of interference if i run a length of cat5e in the same conduit as my drum room snake? Thanks!

    Active Monitors Poll

    i mixed on a pair of ADAM A7's and liked them a lot. couldn't afford the upgrade from my event tr8's but they're on the list.

    Just some Newb questions

    i've gotten some really great sounding drum recordings with one condensor mic in the drum room. granted, my room sounds good, but i wouldn't necessarily rule out a single mic approach for recording a full drum set

    let me see your studio!

    You're outhouse studio rocks! No seriously, that place is super cool for being 15 years old :)

    Just some Newb questions

    i think the best advice for a beginner is to try different mics in different locations and analyze the results. If you like the way one scheme or setup sounds, then go with it until you don't, then start experimenting again. Experiment experiment experiment. Never limit yourself to a certain...

    why people build studios

    our studio pays for itself through the work we do recording artists and bands, making it possible for my partner and i to produce our own work. It was in my basement up until three months ago, when we were offered a seven room facility upstairs in a historic building with high ceilings and wood...

    iMacs?

    the only issue i have with my Imac is that there is no support of PCI cards. My mistake for buying it and not holding out for a G5, but it limits my use of certain interface systems.

    why bother with 24 bit

    well i just got a great deal on a radar 1 16 bit 24 track recorder. i'll report whether i notice difference, although, that might point to my own inadequacies more than that of the recorder :)

    Who uses Omni's?

    Mackie 32-8 buss console

    I have a mackie 32-8 buss w/power supply. Dusted and ready to go. Pickup would be great in CT, but i will ship. $1800 or best offer you may need to clean some pots, but other than that she's a ripper. I also have a Mackie 1604vlzpro with rotopod $500 or best offer i'd probably run the...

    Reason 3 won't load

    I reinstalled my protools LE system with the digi 002R rig last weekend. Protools loaded fine (i updated to 6.3 i think). Anyway, i reinstalled reason 3 and everytime i open it, it stays stuck in a loading loop. I have to force quit it. Mac OSX IMac g4 i's confused anyone else have...

    Dumb Digital Rant

    And here i thought that "modern music" is the stuff WE'RE writing and recording every day. I never thought that "modern music" was confined to that which is sold at Sam Goody or Best Buy. If you're a purist, stop shopping for music and start writing it for the sake of writing it. Record it...

    Setting Up a Patch Bay

    a well planned setup would benefit from soldered connections. But to compromise, soldering recorder ins/outs, console tape ins, console inserts, aux busses, groups, stereo busses would be safe, those are not likely to change. Soldering in preamps and your effects rack might become tedious as...

    my orban 642b eq hisses too much, fixable?

    excellent! we're getting close. It has not been rewired as the original RCA type connectors are intact (and cracking a little bit). Thanks :)

    recording

    how do i write a song? i can't hold the pencil and play the guitar at the same time. Better yet, is there a plugin that will write my song while i play the guitar?

    my orban 642b eq hisses too much, fixable?

    i was wondering why the article called for sockets for the vca's. I didn't think vca's were something i'd be changing out all the time. That's good. i'll just solder them directly. Any luck with my hammond fiasco? :)

    my orban 642b eq hisses too much, fixable?

    i get parts through mouser. they have this cool "project manager" thing that allows you to save parts lists based on a project name. SO i have a bunch of project parts lists pending and i buy them when i start a new project. mouser.com
