My God, sometimes i just can't believe companies are putting stuff on the market just like that. The other day i was in a tv recording and was using a little a&h wizard as additional mixer for the livesound in the studio. I noticed that when i tapped the housing of the mixer, the right master...

uhm, actually it will. That was one of the reasons i decided to go for such a deal. I estimated that if it would take my studio less than a year to pay back the flagship it would be a wise investment. I had my money back in 5 months! It is true, big console do attract clients. I even lowered...

I chose the second option :cool:

I once had a big client who well gave me recording jobs and payed the bill. He beame a very close friend afterwards. One day he says...this is the fifth album with me as producer in the cover, but what does a producer actually do?......oh, if I fuck up completly, that's the everybody will blame...

Somehow D&R still raises people head. Guess that is something from the old days. Nowadays i feel pretty happy with what they make. Got 3.5 meters of heating from them in the studio haha.

I can see the first ad in front of me..... FOR HIRE....TUBE GITARIST....analogue playing technique!

I totally agree. My post is a bit of black-white situation. But what you hear on the radio has some great vibe to it because it was recorded with god gifted people from teaboy to drummer. And most are probably done with partly analogue stuff. I really like the cheaper tlaudio stuff. Their ivory...

Though i never really mixes made totally in the box i might not judge, but i do have my working experience with both analogue and digital. What makes me laugh the most is that the people who are shouting loudest about 'the analogue feel' are basicly full of crap. Let me explain that....someone...

That indeed is old. Didn't notice it.

I just read somewhere that behringer actually had leds behind the tubes to get the glowwwww. Pretty sure other brands use that trick to. Funny thing is how your ears work related to your brain. I've had numerous situation in my studio were i made a certain signal chain to let people hear...

Never think of your main reverb as something to have just because it belongs in a studio setup. The main reverb is one of the most important things to have. So spend a little more on your first, you won't regret it.

Try to get your hands on a used soundtracs. Something like a topaz 8 bus should be pretty easy to find and is a real bang for the buck.

Had the other day in the studio a funny conversation about weird recordings. So I summed up some of mine without realizing that they were kind of funny: our queen and the whole royal family american football players on the feild in stadiums the headphone-output of a dj at a 40.000 people...

a couple of weeks ago i had one of the cd's i mixed mastered by one of europe's biggest studio's, galaxy belgium. They mastering engineer complimenten me about the used converters. And guess what, the recordings took place over a period of 3,5 years, in which we replaced the recording console...

Being a dutch engineer who did a 14 hour session today, coming home and smoking a dutch 'cigarette' while trying to type english, yeah i can. :cool: But it should have been importance. btw, what does it mean? :o

I have the equipment, i have the studio, i have the clients. Missing: time to be able to do it all myself and sadly budget on the client side. It's hard to earn a decent living as a fulltime engineer in studiowork. clients are always on low budgets, keeping up with technology costs you a...

To get back to the equipment question. You probably have your soundcart connected to the line inputs of the console. Those are on -10 dbu. The mic inputs are at +4. Good change your soundcard is equipt with individual stereo outputjacks. Those are not for stereo, but for a balanced signal...

one of the simple reasons split mono is being used is because some of the older version of well known software sequencers didn't handle stereo tracks. And for practice reasons. i get a lot of live recordings where some sort of prerecorded/seq tracks are playing along in sync with the 'live'band...

last week, worst case scenario in our studio...complete crash of the recording computer. We had a raid function for backup but because it was not a faulthy disk, but a faulty write action both disks were corrupted. those drives contained multitrack files from all our open projects (even one...

That's true...most guys in the studio are friends haha
