    New, Cheap Isolation Tracking Headphones

    How many sets of headphones do you have left? If you have lots and thus potentially need lots of extensions, or if you have other personal orders to place on MF, they'll give you free shipping on an order over $299. 60 extensions is $300 worth...damn that's a lot of cords! I find that it's...

    New, Cheap Isolation Tracking Headphones

    Don't despair yet Harvey! :D I'm down for a set of those headphones! I was just waiting on the extensions before I place an order, because the headphones aren't really useful to me without an extension. I guess I could always go the Radio Slack route (bracing for the hit), but I agree that...

    BEST MIC for home studio

    Some people actually argue that the B-1 is better than the C-1, but ultimately it's a matter of preference. I've read a number of reviews where the B-1 was cited as a MUCH more versatile mic as compared to the C-1, but that on certain voices the C-1 really really shines. The v67G (or any other...

    BEST MIC for home studio

    As far as I know, the MBox doesn't have phantom power capability, since it's powered entirely through USB. Phantom Power is the way condenser microphones get the power they need to function. Typical stage vocal handheld type mics are dynamic mics, and thus do not require any sort of powering...

    What is it?

    I found a little info on the company. Of course you can't trust everything you read, but seeing as it was hard for me to find ANY info, I guess it's better than nothing. http://www.rockisland.com/~tonewoods/fentone.html Apparently it's a Japanese company that made a number of mics. This page...

    Alesis CLX440 CLX-440 compressor

    I can't find any info on this compressor, aside from a few old threads in the Alesis forum that consist of only one post asking for into. So here goes. All I know is, the CLX440 looks damn hot! Check it out: http://www.bswonline.com/prod_item.asp?item=CLX440 And it's got TWO discreet...

    Just got my first condenser!

    Maybe it's just a problem with your headphone cord, or the headphones themselves? :)

    Pre or Compressor in the signal chain - where?

    I can't speak for ALL outboard pre-amp's, but the ones in my price range (like the M-Audio DMP3) all seem to output a line-level signal, meaning they use a 1/4" TS (unbalanced) or TRS (balanced) cable. So the easiest thing to do would be to just plug your pre into your mixer's line-level input...

    Mxlv67g

    By the way, what sort of pre-amp are you using with your Behringer B-2? Generally speaking it's best to achieve the sound you want by using an appropriate mic, but in some cases choosing the right pre makes a big difference, especially if you're using one that really colors the sound of your...

    mixer w MR-8 (or other such standalone recorder)

    Thanks morindae! So just how much of a difference will using my crappy factory soundcard make, along with my altec lansing computer speakers? Is it worth getting some powered monitors, or is the soundcard itself more of a problem?

    Suggestions on gear

    I haven't actually used one, but from what I hear there are much better LD condensor mics to be had for around/under $70 than the Samson. Depending on what kind of music you're recording, the MXL 990 might be a good choice, for only $69 with case and shockmount from musiciansfriend.com. And...

    mixing: stereo? comp?

    I'm sure there is too, but I'm not using software for recording...I should've made that clear before. I'm recording on a Fostex MR-8, and then just transferring to my PC for mixing, etc. Basically I was asking about stereo tracks if you've recorded mono. Is there any reason to convert to...

    mixing: stereo? comp?

    Two newbie questions here. 1) When mixing my tracks (I'm using n-Track), I was wondering if it's better to split each track into a stereo track or not. Will this create better stereo imaging even though the two would be identical? I ask because I had a problem that prevented me from...

    Simple mic question - am I wrong?

    Wow, I'm amazed that you can get a matched pair of 603s' for $199! Thanks for the head's up DJL! I'm shocked, because it's $429 for a matched pair of MC-012's at the Sound Room! Sounds to me like $199 is a GREAT price for the matched 603s then. From what I understand, there's a reasonable...
