Which model? >If I were recording on to a cheap sound card or a multitrack recorder (Roland VS, Korg D12, etc.), THEN the 576's price tag would be more than justified, because the dbx has a good analog-to-digital converter built in to it. Now it's starting to look like a good option for the...

>Now, when we look at budget-models (MX60, Voicemaster, ...) shouldn't we compare it to the dbx 376???< Yes. Tom Cram dbx Senior Technical Support (801) 568-7530 tcram@dbxpro.com If we don't believe in freedom of expression for people we despise, we don't believe in it at all. -Noam Chomsky-

I dunno, I just tried the mk-219 and I like it on vocals. It would probably suck rocks on acoustic guitar though. How about a C451b for acoustic? I dig that mic. Tom Cram dbx Senior Technical Support (801) 568-7530 tcram@dbxpro.com If we don't believe in freedom of expression for people we...

>From 2.5 inches I would think all mikes are pretty sensitive to plosives, aren't they?< Yes and no. There is a degree of acceptability. You want to be able to get in close for those intimate vocals, and to take advantage of proximity effect. But you don't want the plosives to become...

I know how much you guy's love non-scientific mic evaluations, so here is another:D I just tried the MXL 1006 and the Oktava MK-219 here at work. First impressions are; 1006; facing the capsule-very, very bright. Some, but not a lot, of proximity effect. Reminds me of the 2001 (not good)...

Other than the usual -20 dB pad? Shure makes some in-line pads, is this what you are referring to? Chess, I guess I'm not sure what you mean. Tom Cram dbx Senior Technical Support (801) 568-7530 tcram@dbxpro.com If we don't believe in freedom of expression for people we despise, we don't...

Toot our own horn... I gotta toot the dbx horn here, they were using a bunch of dbx 160SL's as well...Cool! I'm not sure what pre's they were using though, probably the ones on the board. Tom Cram dbx Senior Technical Support (801) 568-7530 tcram@dbxpro.com If we don't believe in freedom of...

Look at it this way... Michael, It has a different sound than all your other mics, so that's good. And it only cost $150, so you feel a little safer using it on potentially damaging sound sources or situations. If you are concerned about damaging your 77dx micing up a dimed Marshall, you...

It's cool... I understand Harvey. Last week I jumped all over some poor schmuck for something I would normally ignore. I was just having a bad day. Everybody has 'em, and everybody's human. To paraphrase the elephant man; "I am not a robot, I am a man! Tom Cram dbx Senior Technical...

Way cool questions; >1) When going to a recording school is accuracy ever discussed or better yet taught ?< Yes, I was taught that if the listener is ever aware of any choices made by the engineer, that engineer had failed miserably. >2) Since all links in a chain starting with the microphone...

Yes and no... The human ear can discern very minute changes in dB with very specific individual sounds by themselves. The 3dB figure your professor was referring to is the level detectable in program material. This is a very important distinction that is often not mentioned when discussions...

Mike, Remember that the Drive knob on the 386 is not an input level. It controls the amount of signal that hits the tube. You derive most of your gain from the output control. The rule of thumb is that any setting before noon (on the drive) sounds more solid state. Any setting past noon...

Hey! Mike, sorry for not getting back to you sooner, I've been out of town. Congratulations! You have discovered an error in the diagram. The correct location of the filter is the one just after the peak LED. The one in front does not even exist. Good eye man! Tom Cram dbx Senior...

Nice try? CarmenC, this was the post from Spectoar that prompted my response; >Thanks charger, That makes sense. I must admit to being a bit taken aback by all this and as a 'newbie' it's probably a good idea to lay low, and I will. To prove I'm no secret agent man I will only post my c3...

Hmmmm.... CarmenC inexplicably wrote; >The man is interested in giving HIS opinion on a mic, and I'm interested in hearing it. What the fuck has that got to do with the search engine?< Because...Brain Trust...the thread at that point had developed into one poster asking how a newbie could...

yeah... Michael, I know, sometimes it's hard to resist. I normally wouldn't have called you out on it but, your post was like the second one. Plus I hadn't had my coffee yet.:D Tom Cram dbx Senior Technical Support (801) 568-7530 tcram@dbxpro.com "Jazz, pfffft...They just make it up as they...
