Sorry don't know.... The Dmt8vl is an older discontinued unit, It may be hard to get any response from Fostex, since they have now produced quite a few generations of products that have SCSI built in, and it may just not be worth the time or money to modify... Just my oppinion; Dom Franco

Point made, Point Taken But... Experimentation leads to great discoveries. There is no better method than using your ears to judge. Classical instruments, Pianos, chamber groups, choirs, string quartets etc. often benefit from room ambience, rather than close microphone techniques. Perhaps a...

For a nice stereo piano sound.... For a nice stereo piano sound try using your two best mics (Condensors) one just about ear level with the pianist but in out front of the open cover about 1 foot away, and the second mic 8 to 12 feet away for room sounds and ambience. This is a more natural...

? Be sure to only activate one track record ready button at a time. It sounds like you have all eight buttons pushed in? Do you have the manual? Also keep all the other faders down while monitoring and recording only one track at a time, if you have the switch playing back a track it will...

Panning for GOLD! I like to pan similar instruments away from each other, so they will have their own place in the mix. FOR EXAMPLE: Acoustic guitar left and Electric guitar right. Piano left and Organ right. I always keep bass and lead vocals center. Drums in stereo left and right or if...

$ The answer is "$" Sm58=$100.00 -VS- An Excellent Vocal Condensor Microphone=Over $500.00 ART Pre-amp =$100 -VS- A high Quality Tube Preamp = ? $300.00 or more. You can get good sounds with what you have, but you get what you pay for in Mics and Pre-amps. Dom :)

Can't have too many! I have a Tele, Strat, Harmony (Gibson Clone), Cheapo Bass, Three accoustics, not to mention two mandolins, a dobro, three steel guitars and a uke. I want more..... Dom:eek:

OK I have a CD! Now What? I started this post sort of as a joke, but now it seems a bit more serious.... WHAT DO YOU DO WITH YOUR FINAL MIX? Sell it? Give it away? To Whom? Bring it to school for "show and tell"? Let's hear from all of you creative masters out there. I'll start; I usually...

or you could.... Have him play an electric guitar through an acoustic simulator, and send the direct signal to his headphones. This will be much less noticable on the vocal track. It may sound great, or you could over dub the acoustic later,\. Dom:p

BLUEGRASS? I don't have any particular suggestions, but it's refreshing to hear that some one out there likes bluegrass besides me! Try listening to some CD's that you like through your mixer and playback system, then match your levels and EQ as much as possible. Dom Franco:p

Vocal Effects A compressor will even out the vocal volume level and help it find a place in the mix. (A Compressor is like an automatic gain control) they can be simple or very complex depending on the model you purchase. A good quality compressor will be very useful in any studio. EQ is a...

Squire Pro-Tone Thinline Tele! A few years ago Squire made a Thinline (Beautifully finished Clear Red) with a maple neck and All Gold Hardware. It's is labeled a "Pro-Tone" whatever that means. I bought it and I love it! I had an original Fender Thinline Tele. In Natural ash Finish way back...

Thanks for the swift reply! Thanks for the swift reply! But doe's this mean that I have to have a picture on a web site to attach it to a message? Thanks Dom :o

Ok don't make fun of me, but how you guys get pictures of your studios to show up in your threads? I'm pretty clueless when it comes to computers so explain it to me step by step. I tried to attach something to an e-mail once and the duct tape got the computer screen all sticky! I want to...

This baffles me! Baffles are most often used to keep one instrument from bleeding into another instrument's microphone during a "live" recording where two or more parts are being played in the same room. Baffles are also used to make a "dead" space in an otherwise "Live" (Reflective) room...

The simplest Reverb? This is the oldest and simplest reverb..... Under $600. Too! 1. Run a signal out of your board using an AUX Send or EFFECTS send to a guitar amp placed in a live room (Like a kitchen or a bathroom). 2. Place a mike in the same area but on the other side of the room...

Wow! I covet....... I desire...... I lust....... I need money..... :( DOM:(

No bugs that I know of! I haven't heard of any problems with the HD24, I just figured at some point they will upgrade the software version... You know those pointy headed computer geeks... they are always "improving" something. Dom:)

Yeah they need maintenance...but I had an ADAT down for a week or so...$120.00 later and it's like new. I know I've got my money's worth already, and when I get the new HD24 I'll probably sell one of them and just keep one for compatabillity. I don't know if ADAT'S rule, But I do agree that...

OK I'M saving up my money... I hope the price drops or just remains the same.... and mabye they will come out with a version 2.0 fixing initial bugs! Merry Christmas All Dom Franco:p
