    Bid on a house for a studio

    Congratulations Freudian ! I sure do understand the frustration of waiting on your new place. We got the keys to our new one (also a repo, vacant for 2 years !) on the Wednesday before Thanksgiving, we've been waiting since August. The amount of work that needs done before we can even move in...

    Some psycho-surfa-punkabilly from Greg_L

    LOL ! Well it sure is doing you some justice cause your mixes come out great in my opinion. Sometimes I get impatient trying to find the right recorded sound and I shouldn't because that's when it's most crucial. Thanks for the insight ! I'm not done with questions (I have many) but I'm...

    Some psycho-surfa-punkabilly from Greg_L

    Cool tune dude. Listening on pc speakers at the moment, sounds clean and clear on them. I really like the sound of the drums and cymbals, specially the ride it's comming across with a real nice sounding musical "ting" (don't know how to describe it). Your vocals are so clear and up-front, dig...

    mixing--how do YOU approach it?

    This was a helpful thread for me. Thanks to the op for starting it. I really appreciate the techniques discussed and the references to other very informative threads with equally useful techniques. I've printed out much of the explanations and how to's both in this thread and the referenced...

    Reaper 2.0 is out

    Well, I just had a desktop PC given to me a couple days ago. Installed a firewire card yesterday and got the Alesis io26 hooked up to it and working with no problems. Decided it's a perfect time to install Reaper 2.010 so I did. Wow, it looks completely different, I like it. Runs great so far...

    11-1-07....CAD M177 for $59 - MF Stupid deal...

    Dang, I'll have to wait til later to check this out, but I am very curious. Used mine on a vocal track the other day just checking it out and messin around. Now, I need to set up my area to record a real vocal track with it and see what happens cause I swear it cut through better than my other...

    New tracks with REAL drums!

    Little kids in the begining sound pretty neat leading into the song. The vocals both male and female sound solid in the mix, blend well with the acoustic.

    Perpetual Motion

    I don't have any useful mix type comments to offer , but I can tell you that it came across as very rich and full sounding with lots of energy. Sounded Good!

    Holy moly ! The case for this thing is much bigger than I expected. I saw the box from Musicians Friend when I got home and told my wife that they must of messed up cause that box is awful big for what I ordered. Then I pulled out another box and inside of it was this huge case ! Nope, they...

    Cant kill the buzzing

    This is why I was wondering if he was using a laptop. I've been using laptops almost exclusively for recording for years now (that's about to change :) ) and every one of them I have used has this problem while the power supply is plugged in. I'm gonna get beatup for this, but I use a ground...

    Retubing

    It won't hurt to keep your skin oil off of the tube, it could be likewise the other way around but I'm cautious and it's just my opinion. I use a clean rag or maybe a clean jersy glove or possibly the tissue paper that comes with them when i'm messin with tubes. Capacitors store energy...

    Retubing

    Good Point. I always understood it to be good practice to keep the oils from your hands off of the tubes as much as possible to help prevent uneven heat build up in spots. But they really don't get near as hot as something like a halogen lamp so some prints probably won't kill it. I'm sure I'm...

    Retubing

    I'll second this ! Those guy's at EuroTubes are great and very informative. If your amp is the same as a 5150 (mine btw) you might want a ballanced pre amp tube in the invertor section (Bob will explain). For the Output tubes, a matched quad will be what you want. I had to modify my 5150 (not...

    Cant kill the buzzing

    Welcome to the board ! Now, a couple of questions. Is the noise present (audible) before you record anything or do you hear it only upon playback of the recorded track ? Where are you monitoring from ? By chance, is your computer a laptop ?

    Thanks to Thajeremy for posting this, I wouldn't have noticed otherwise. I ordered one and then thought, what the heck, I'll need a like pair of mics anyway, so I ordered another one. My wife might not see it like I do but I've learned that it is easier to ask for forgiveness than to beg for...

    Alesis IO|26 or Presonus Firepod (both $400)

    I really like my io26 too ! Best dang musical tool I've bought in a while. It finally came down to the Firepod or the io26 for me. I him hawed around, read a lot of different message boards, and researched both of them as best as I could. Though I like the idea of being able to put the Firepod...
