As a former owner of a matched pair of 414B ULS, an unmatched pair of 414B XLS, and a current owner of an unmodified 319 (except the resonance disc is removed to flatten the frequency response) I'd go for the AKG. The ULS were my favs. I had to sell all the 414's in hard times, and they were...

This is somewhat like comparing apples to oranges. The Blue Robbie is only a mic preamp, right? While the Babyface is a USB interface for your computer with two preamps included. If you buy the Robbie, you still have to figure out how you are going to get the signal into your computer DAW...

Thanks again for the recommendation. Looks like the 58's and 57's are going to be around another 50 years because Shure does a great job of selling them. I guess I will hang onto mine, even though I'm much more excited about other choices.

On a mic buying binge here. My bluegrass band played over the Behringer XM8500s last night (without me as I had another commitment). They loved the mics. No feedback whatsoever. I just took delivery of 3 ADG D770s from Ebay. $85. They really sound nicer than my Shure SM's. Why do these...

The re11's are in great shape but the foam is crumbly. $18 replacement part from EV...or I may try cutting my own from a foam windscreen. The diaphragms look really clean. I have a friend who has a sonic cleaning tank. I will put the grille and the screen shield in for a sonic bath. The...

just ordered 8 of them. thanks again for the recommendation.

with help from a friend, I just picked up 4 old mics on CL for $100. 2 RE11's, an akg d1000e and a shure something or other. I will take possession in 3 days.

is anyone a little suspicious that the Digital reference Mic's look a lot like their GL S es 57 counterparts?

haha. " bear injures". autocorrect

great testimonial, but I believe I would put that $12,000 in a safe or a bank. seriously though, the bear injures are up to something like a hundred 63 reviews on Amazon right now. most negative comments seemed to be from people who think the mic should come with its o wn speaker or you...

Thanks, Richard. That was fast, and appreciated.

My bluegrass band needs to buy 6 stage mics. I'd like to get something in the $25 range, new, all the same, where we can set the gain, eq, etc uniformly and mix ourselfs by 'working the mics'. My fear is that the options right now will sound fine on instruments, but be a little harsh for...

I just picked up a Sound Devices usbpre (I) for $75 used. The guy sold it because they don't work with a 64bit OS. Those of us happy using older stuff benefit. I've used M-Audio, mobile pre, FW 410, PreSonus Firebox, Yamaha GO46, an EMU 0404 usb, and an RME FF800. As long as you don't need...

Thank you both for listening, for the compliments and for the fair assessment. I agree the guitar fills and solos on the vocal # need to be pushed up a bit, and perhaps the banjo pushed back. I know there are timing issues around some of the guitar fills during the first verse or two. I don't...

I'm posting three tunes. :guitar: All instruments and vocal were recorded with a SPB1 ($50 on CL) onto a Zoom R16. I'm playing all parts, but I didn't do any punches...just played the parts through until I could live with it and adjusted levels and pan. The final mixes were boosted with an...

Reaper for tracking and and adobe audition 1.5 / Ozone 4 for slicking up my mixdowns.

Thank you all for your help. My bad on the size of the card (8 gigabytes).

I'm recording 7 tracks per song onto an SD card at 24 bit / 44.1 khz. How many minutes of 7 track songs can I get onto one 8mb card? Is there a formula I can plug into or a resource online somewhere I can reference?:listeningmusic:

Would throwing a heavy folded moving blanket over the computer while you are recording cause the cpu to overheat?
