Yes. You can use automation to reduce and increase or turn on and off the chorus. When you listen through a good set of nearfield monitors you will realize that you haven't been hearing what you think you're hearing. Skip the home stereo speakers.. they're no good for this job. You need...

When I listen to this track, I don't hear anything at the beginning that doesn't continue through the song. It's probably just becoming hidden in the mix. Are you listening through home stereo speakers?

My guitar player has been so annoyed with the recent mucking with the red-book standards. No CD's with those new "copy-protection" markings will play in his van CD played. Interestingly enough, it's done nothing to prevent me from copying them. Perhaps the labels are being paid off by the CD...

I'm happy as long as most recent (post 1995) CD players can play the audio in track 1 and later. I'm curious how many commercial albums have hidden secret tracks before track one. I only have first hand experience with one. Blind Melon "soup". I will check out audio-architect first. their...

I'm looking for a good CD mastering program that will allow me to take a single 16 bit wav file containing an entire album (including track transitions and so forth) and simply place markers where the track count should advance. I'd also like to be able to place music before the "track 1" marker...

Bassy? Muffled? I find that a broken 57 has these characteristics. Poking holes in the diaphragm usually fixes that. Use one of the pins on the flux capacitor for this purpose.

Yup. The D112 is a pretty standard kick mic -- the 57/58 is not.

Their review is pretty favorable. I like this mixer, but my experience with it lasted all of half an hour -- certainly not enough to make a judgement about reliability or build quality. I like the IMP's, and the D/A converters, which I believe are the same as those in the ADA8000's. They're not...

They both pretty much suck for kick bro. Try a D112 for a contrast to a standard kick mic.

The 57 and 58 are probably more similar than any other two mics. Frequency curves really aren't the only difference between one mic and another.

Interesting.. I was looking for a cheap SPDIF A/D converter last week.. haha -- I'm in multi-function paradise. Probably will wait another week or two until I'm done recording the band I have in the studio now, then I'll go for a little shopping trip and pick one of these up.

Chessparov, Good guess :) Indeed. She's a pleasure to work with, and really knows her stuff. Did you guess because of her recording technique, or was she the only top female producer that came to mind? Some of my buddies have been shopping for producers, and honestly, she's the only female I...

I had the pleasure of working with one of the worlds top record producers. She insisted on Neve consoles all the way through the recording process, but had less of an obsession for using trendy high-priced microphones. Not to say that we didn't get a chance to play with fancy equipment, but most...

Yes, I am looking for cheap over good here. Nothing will be committed to tape. Thank you all for your input. I will ook into the M300.

I remember having a pleasant experience with some Earthworks reps at CMW a few years ago. I'll definitely check these out again.

I'm looking for a cheap reverb unit that has spdif in and out. Can anyone recomend a model? It doesn't have to sound *great* since the sound will not be put to tape (it's just for monitoring)

I'd love to hear an update on how the machine is performing.

In high school I decided to rent a Yamaha MT8X and some mics so I could record my high school band. If I remember correctly, I decided to try a new microphone -- I believe it was a battery powered AKG C1000S. Well, when I plugged this thing in, I was just astonished. The sound of analog tape...

I'll give you $30US for it. rich@tallman.org if interested.

Sometimes, it's good to choose your battles. Me, personally, I just got back on my meds. It's working out great, thanks.
