I find the concept of credit reports to be quite disturbing. To begin with it is such an abstract in terms of judging a person's worth. Sort of like looking an unfinished self portrait. You only have a vague idea at best. Then it is completely unfair that EVERYBODY has to have a credit history...

Hey Doc nice to hear from you too! More bad news for me. I didn't get the job in Milwaukee due to my wrecked credit report. I have got less than one month to find something else now before I am back in my van again. This is getting really damn frustrating. I have 4 more people looking to have...

Hi Dom, This is actually an upgrade that can slightly increase the value of your instrument as long as a professional does the installation. I have added Synhouse converters to a few synths and yes they work nicely.

In all honesty, yes you can get away with omitting the heatshrink and save a few cents per cable. However, I am very much the Drooling Goon and as a Drooling Goon my mental options are rather limited which means I tend to view the world and those in it from the Drooling Goon level. Therefore I...

I believe you made a fine choice Emmay. If I had to select a modern piece of gear as my main instrument for the kind of music I do I most likely have selected the M3 myself. It has the right combo of features and accessibility. More specifically the sampling and sample editing facilities are...

Hi Dragon, Please make this post a sticky when you get a chance - http://homerecording.com/bbs/showthread.php?p=3001443#post3001443 Thanks!!!

Yoohoo! Moderator? Any chance this can be made a sticky? Not trying to stroke myself off here, but this topic is essential DIY material that can benefit everybody.

I get pretty hard sounds but didn't have to pay out big money for them. My signature sound is made with a $76 Casio synth and a homemade distortion pedal that may have cost me $35 to build. Frankly, getting hard sounds is not a function of money but more a product of inventiveness. Best thing...

Thanks for the kind wishes guys! My trip to Milwaukee was hectic and exhausting. I got a call form the people today and the interview went very well. A few more formalities and hopefully I'll be gainfully employed again and planning my relocation. As soon as I'm settled and have unpacked my...

I used to have one of these. It had a nice gloss to it but I found the sound to be weird. This is actually a good thing for my style of music and was very happy with the purchase. For more traditional music it's use may be limited a bit. I paid $70 for it used.

Installing sockets like antichef did is a great idea. You could then buy or order samples of several different types of opamps and try them out. Recapping is also a good point that was brought up. You may just want to try doing this first. For electrolytics I recommend Nichicons - almost any...

Thanks buddy, it's good to hear from you too and to be online again. I hope people here understand that there hasn't been any intention of being greasy to kojdogg's friend on my part. I think some of you remember when the troubles began for me and a few of you even helped me out by buying...

Hey kojdogg, I emailed Lyle today and gave him an update. I feel really bad for being out of touch for so long but things have been seriously bad on my end. After my wife left me I had planned to move to DC for my new job. Unfortunately the week before I was to move my new employer terminated...

Oh yeah I recognize them now. The ones he supplies the inductors with the PCB right? I was gonna order those before I decided to go with the Blokes. Which I still haven't found time to build up yet...

http://www.allelectronics.com/make-a-store/item/MC-2/2-CONDUCTOR-SHIELDED-MICROPHONE-CABLE/-/1.html Not a bad deal for copper shielded cable. Full Compass is where I ordered my Switchcraft plugs. Nobody had a better price at the time...

Which DOAs are those? They look pretty old.

Not sure about the Motif or how it operates. But it sounds like you need to turn off local Midi on the instrument. Older synths usually had a back panel switch or even a button on the front panel for this. How to do it on your instrument is anyones guess. Check the manual. Another thing to...

That pic gave me a hard-on. Should I be seeking help? ;)

Everything ordered from folks up here has been shipped out. Thanks everybody! :) What's left now: Sennheiser MD-441U dynamic mic - $400 TC Electronics Triple-C Stereo Multi-Band Compressor - $225 TC Electronics G-Major Guitar Effects Processor - $275 Alesis Midiverb 4 Multi Effect Processor -...

Sony has a DVD set for sale... http://www.fullcompass.com/product/325791.html But I see nothing for free out there. Just post questions you have about it here and eventually we'll have something like a tutorial here in the forum.
