    Behringer T1951 Review

    I managed to mess up a few mixes with a GML 8200. The thing can make mixes so clear I went nuts. Used it to master a pretty important project around 2002. At least it was a teachable moment. Never strap new devices across the mix buss in the middle or end of a project. The t1951 sounds good...

    What does the FMR RNC sound best on?

    People's idea of a good transparent compressor I have used a Distressor for over 10 years now. I like it for vocals. Many a times i won't compress guitars or other instruments on the way in. The reason I like it for vocals is it will hold back even loud vocals. It sounds big and natural. Of...

    Will Analog Multitracks ever be made again?

    I recorded on Analog machines in the 60s 70s and 80's. The last 10 years I have been collecting them. Finally figured out they take me back to younger days. Whatever it must mean to me. Find myself getting a motel room in Nashville to pickup a MCI 2"16 track. Or driving down to Miami to pickup a...

    B-16 mod to run at 30ips?

    There was an article where the author talks about Tascam M16 machines either come from the factory either 15 or 30. The Fostex machines I own and have owned have 2 speeds. Either 7.5 and 15 or 15 and 30 ips. I like the highs at 30 ips and the low at 15 ips. If I had to choose 30. You just need...

    Fostex E16 won't rewind?

    Ok ...problems solved. I just pushed the dancer arm on the supply side up and it goes into fast forward. Push it down and rewind works. This recorder looks almost new. It won't sound like my Tascam ATR80 2",but it's got a punchy sound to it. The price was right. Will look into getting a service...
