I have a digital work station I use. I don't want to have to buy an outboard EQ so I can understand Q, and I can't use plug-ins.

OK, here is my situation. I know I just need to start using parametric EQ and learn from experience. But I have some guide lines I am trying to use as a starting point. For example, if I want to boost "5K-8K, carefully", what does this mean? Start with a one db boost=carefully, and then...

I know that by adjusting the Q, one is adjusting the bandwith. But, how do Q and bandwith exactly relate to each other. What does one unit of Q equal in actual bandwith Hz?

I recently bought a Stellar RM-5. I have not had a chance to really try it out, can't say if I like it yet. Also, it is my first ribbon mic, so I don't have another to which I can compare it. After reading posts here about the Nady ribbons and the Cascade Fat Head, and their ribbons, I...

If anyone cares, I finally fixed the mic. It ended up not being a bad zener(checked it again when I wasn't so tired, the meter was set in the wrong mode), but was a shorted .01 uf cap off of the power supply to the plate resistor. Shorted all the voltage to ground. MXL wouldn't give me a copy...

well, hopefully I have found the problem. A zener diode is no good on the board. I am going to get a new one today, put it in tonight and cross my fingers that that is the only issue.

Philgood, I don't think there is any use in doing anything unless and until I can get that plate voltage figured out. No tube is gong to work with 4.5v. I already tried a known good tube, to no avail. I am going to pull apart the guts of the mic a little further so I can see where the wires...

Well, I've got (looking clockwise at the end of the cable to the mic), 212vdc,8.9vdc, 212vdc, ground, and the last two have no voltage, I assume that they are the signal returns from the mic. However, at the tube, I only have 4.4vdc on the plates. The heater has about 6vdc on it, and the tube...

I'll do that when I get home tonight. I'll open up the power supply and look around also, maybe something obviously cooked.

I have MXL V69 tube condenser. I like this mic, I use it in my home studio to record myself. I used it a couple of weeks ago, no problem. When I went to use it this past weekend, I could only get a veeery small signal out of the mic. The mic had been left on for a couple of days( I had to...

I have a Korg D16. Currently, I use the built in preamps or a blue tube pre when I need phantom power. I want to upgrade to a nicer pre amp and am looking for something in the $500 to $1000 range, preferably 2 channels. my question is, since I will be running any new pre amp through the D16...

upgrading d16 hard drive check out yahoo groups for the Korg d16 user group. Yes, it is easy to upgrade and you can find out everything you need to know there. I just put in a 40 gig hard drive. http://launch.groups.yahoo.com/group/KorgD16/message/5471 I used a Hitachi Travelstar E7K60 40GB...
