    microverb, balanced in/outputs?

    No, they don´t specifically talk about balanced connections but since I´m not a native english speaker I figured they might use another term... cheers, giggsy

    microverb, balanced in/outputs?

    Hi all! Just bought a Microverb 4 and I´m trying to figure out if the in/outputs are balanced or not. My manual is kind of vague on this, or maybe it´s my english... cheers, giggsy

    Stacking vocals in a mix

    Tim, I certainly see in theory what you´re getting at. This kind of harmony is sort of what I´m looking for in my next project so I´ll give it a go... cheers, giggsy

    Stacking vocals in a mix

    Hmmm, 14:1 compression sounds interesting. Guess I´ll have to try that... giggsy

    Stacking vocals in a mix

    What I´ve done a few times is to record a 3 part harmony on separate tracks, then transfer them to a 4th track. The I do it all over again(record 3 new vocal parts transferred to a 4th). After that you pan the two stacked tracks to nicely frame your lead vocals. Also, try stepping back a bit...

    Indigenous mix

    Hey Twist! Guess you gotta put into consideration how the two guitars actually sounds individually. You gotta match them before you can get a good blend. Their sounds gotta go hand in hand, not only sound good when played alone. giggsy

    ear fatigue?

    If you mix at around 85dB that many people recommend you to do for for a good frequenzy response you should never mix longer than a couple of hours before giving you ears a good rest. It´s very important not to stress the mix by doing too long sessions. Listen to JC and never finalize a mix the...

    Cool edit to Wavelab...

    Ok, here´s the deal: I´ve used the Gina 20 bit cards analog rec input to record a stereotrack from a CD-player on the Cool edit version that came with Gina (appearently a light one). First of all I can´t the meters up on Cool edit so I have to rely on the easy trim function that I have activated...

    How many Les Paul owners?

    msr! I have a DeLuxe from ´71. It´s a sunburst and it´s in original shape including the mini-humbuckers. I bought it in ´89 and there´s no way in the world I would ever sell it. I´ve thought about it too, why the model came out and why they only made a few thousand over a few years before...

    VOCAL MICS

    Well LSA 100X, I´d just like to express my humble opinion. I´ve used both NT 1 and C1000S and there´s no doubt in my ears that the C1000S mic sounds a lot better. If you have some old vinyls left to sell of for extra cash I would strongly recommend you to buy a C2000 instead. The 1" membran...

    ADAT tape head cleaning?

    Hey Engineear, that´s kinda what I thought too... Anyway, my machines are running fine now. Had a friend clean them for me, hehehe. Last but not least I recommend everyone to check out a copy of the Alesis tape head cleaning instruction video. It´s almost at the same high comedy level as...

    ADAT tape head cleaning?

    I found a geeky instruction video from Alesis on how to clean the heads and they recommend Isopropyl alcohol and a lint free cloth. I´m looking forward to hearing why I shouldn´t use alcohol. Just started working in a studio with three ADAT´s and a BRC hooked up with a 02R so I´m sure any...

    ADAT tape head cleaning?

    Thanks, BigKahuna. I think I´ll clean it myself after clearing my head from the thoughts about how much a new head costs... giggsy

    ADAT tape head cleaning?

    Hey all! Does anyone have any good tips on how to clean the tape heads of a ADAT XT? Alesis themselves recommend 3M ASD HC. Is that a good choice? cheers, giggsy

    VF-16 Question: Buss Record

    bussing again Calo! I meant that for instance if you´ve got 6 tracks of drums that you wanna fade/mute for a few seconds in a mix it would be helpful if you can assign the 6 tracks to a stereotrack (previously unused) for easier handling, only having to deal with 2 faders instead of six...

    VF-16 Question: Buss Record

    bussing Hi all and especially mic98! I´ve been monitoring this excellent site for a couple of weeks and now decided it´s time to join. I´m gonna buy a VF-16 soon and I´m also curious how the bussing is working out, especially at mixing. Can you gruop tracks to a bus or to you have to bounce...
