Sorry, Not a chance. I realize that pickups have many things that recommend them. Chief among them is that they produce no feedback. With classicals , however, the quality of the amplified sound can vary tremendously and from what I've been told, it doesn't have much to do with the quality of...

Well, I may have to rethink my idea then. Such is life. Thanks for the additional mic ideas, I will check them out also. I also like the thinking regarding going with a cardioid rather than hypercardioid. Makes sense. Use a single cardioid rather than two hypers. I may just experiment with...

Hi, That's a very good point and one that I hadn't considered. I guess that's why I spend time here, to learn. (I happened upon the AKG C1000S today at a local music shop. They highly recommended it for live and according to what was told, it is hypercardiod. Any thoughts on this?)**...

My thought was a better tone. Aim them at different parts of the guitar the same as is done in the studio. I could be wrong here as it relates to a live situation, it may make no difference. I'm here to learn. Hey, I don't mind saving money! Regards, Steve

CG= classical guitar btw :D I may have a need in the near future for amplifying my guitar for things like weddings etc. (Sorry, it's what I like doing. I know it ain't heavy metal but dif'rnt strokes and all that crap). Anyway, I won't be using huge amplifiers. More like 20-40watts. Just...

I suggest that you throw it all away and start over. Now, I only live an hour south so I would be HAPPY to voluteer to come and help you get rid of all that junk. I PROMISE I will put in the trash! Regards, Steve (Sylvania, OH) ;)

Hey DB, Was cruizin' this thread and I found the thread referenced. If you haven't yet found it, try these links: This one is for spectrum analyzer utilities: http://www.maxim.abel.co.uk/utilities.htm This is for the thread...

Hi Marik, My attorney friend had a couple of questions and wanted more info so I await his input. The basic rule of thumb though is 26 years for a copywrite and a 26 year renewal, if used (I doubt it in this case) I hope you won't be dissappointed though. The capule size suggested in the...

I've purchased 2 AT3035's in the past 6 weeks and although I haven't had a lot of time to record with them, they totally blew away my other condensers in the few trials I've done. I did a side by side in mono and the difference was startling. :D Contrary to what was stated elsewhere on this...

BINGO!! :D I found the book and I have the articles coming over from another library in the state (I'm glad I voted for the last tax levy!) I am going to email a good freind of mine who is a law professor and a patent attoney. When I resolve the issue of copywrites, I will make this article...

been reading with interest I've been reading this thread with a lot of interest. Not so much the existential aspects of hanging a diaphram in space but rather the physical process of building a condenser unit and diaphram. This is something I have pondered since I got interested in...

Hi, I hang out at the mic forum quite a bit and frankly, I haven't had this problem at all and what do ya know, I don't own a Nuemann mic! Not even one. ;) I all seriousness, there is an excellent thread on the mic forum. Its a sticky and so its always near the top. It discusses all the...

Thanks!! Sounds like the consensus is for the DMP-3. There are a couple of new units on Ebay with free shipping, I think that's the way to go. Regards, Steve :D

Hi, I currently using Art Tube MP's (2- I record in stereo). I know they're on the low end of cost but they were a definite improvement over those in the Behringer mixer I had used. The details are as follows: I record acoustic guitar (almost exclusively). My mics are AT3035's and I...

Why is it that I start reading with an accent when I read this thread? Thanking you so very, very much, Steve

Marik, If you get a response, I sincerely hope you will share it with the forum. I'll be especially interested if Mr. Schneider answers your questions directly or if he skirts them. It's funny though, it goes back to what I was saying about marketing. I didn't mention the service aspect. A...

Marik, as I pointed out to Han, we really doesn't disagree, we are merely talking at cross-purposes (I read that one in an Agatha Christie novel). We are jsut talking about two different parts of the whole. How about this for an analogy. I make and sell custom designed, hand-built furniture...

Han, you get no arguement from me. I not only agree, I second the motion. You misunderstood my post though. The arguements I made were not necessarily how I feel it should be but rather how it is. Neither you nor anybody else has changed my mind. On the contrary, you have tacitly agreed...

Thanks for the info on the quote thing! :) Sorry, I have to respectfully disagree with you folks on the analogies. I was trying to make a point, nothing more. Simply put, there is as much in common with VCRs as with art. I can further the analogy but that's not the real issue. My issues...

"The point is that IMHO any even cheapest and crapiest VCR is much more complicated device than a stupid microphone and can be have for under $100. Yep, wonders of capitalist market." (Question posted by Marik) Sorry, I haven't figured out the quote thing. There are actually several parts to...
