Yeah I agree, that's seams a little high! 100+80+25+20+40=$265 so that's $265 worth of USED gear, and the starting bid is set at $250? If you add on the $30 shipping that brings the grand total to $280. Hell, I could walk into GC and buy the same stuff NEW for less! Seems a little steep to me...

Okay, I could be wrong, but I think I know wha you are trying to achieve. Here's how most bands get that big wide guitar sound on the rhythm parts: Record your rhythm parts to a track, now use a different mic, and possibly even a different guitar or amp, and record the exact same rhythm parts...

I also have an ebony pinstripe batters on my toms and I have been experimenting with tuning A LOT recently. I think I'm finally getting satisfied with my tuning ability. It just takes quite a bit of practice. The prof. sound tuning bible is really a great tool. I couldn't get it to work the...

Yup, chessrock hit the nail on the head. Get that damn thing off of the floor! I'm really surprised that nobody said this earlier. This is a common problem and getting the speaker a few feet off of the floor fixes that annoying bass boom 90% of the time. Also, if you are using a guitar with a...

If you want a great effects processor, and you are very serious about recording, the ksp8 is well worth the price. It's makes most of the effects processors by lexicon and TC at the same price point sound like toys. It is not just a combination of the rumor and mangler. The rumor and mangler...

at4050 or ksm44 would be my vote. They are both clean and neutral, and they can both do the omni thing. Either are great on most vocals and acoustic guitars. Definitely a step up in detail and clarity over the at3035, but not a huge step because the 3035 is a pretty decent little mic. If you...

I'll give you a hint: Those recordings sound that good before they are ever even see a mastering studio. The mastering is just the final touch. If your stuff lacks the depth and clarity you desire, then start with omproving your instruments, room, mics, recording techniques, preamps, convertors...

Yeah, do a search. There is one dual channel quality pre that is consistently recommended in this price range, and that pre is the fmr rnp. It is exactly what you need. There are some other great single channel units in this price range, but if you need 2 good channels of mic pre then this is by...

Yeah that's a great idea!!! Why don't we just stop recording guitars through real amplifiers as well? Hell, we can just use a POD for guitar and trigger everything else! Sorry to burst your bubble, but E-drums sound nothing like a well miced live drum kit. Don't get me wrong, they sound fine...

You might also want to try posting your question over at gearslutz.com, or just try running a search there. Those guys live for this type of high end gear and many people who post there have experience with this kind of stuff every day. They should be able to give you a very good picture of how...

The C1 is a great budget LDC, but I've never cared for it on most female vocals. It seems to accentuate the right frequency ranges on male vocals, but it gets a little shrill on some females, especially when they're belting out stuff in the higher vocal range. I'd try the sm7 first.

I've heard good things about these snakes. Great bang for buck value: http://www.audiopile.net/products/Stagelink_snakes/PSX-8/PSX-8_cutsheet.asp

I think we have a winner!!!

I feel very strange saying this, because it's usually totally the opposite problem for guys recording this type of music, but it sounds like it needs a big 'ole smiley face eq on the mix bus. I'm just hearing too much midrange and not enought highs and lows overall. You did a pretty good job...

Good Stuff!!!! Thanks Fletcher!

Lynx is still making the best in the box A/D/A converters on the market as far as I know. They have the Lynx II now, which is better, but the Lynx I is still very respectable. In order to beat it you would have to get some rackmounted out of the box converters like Apogee, Mytek, Benchmark, or...

I think BUDGET is the point. Unless you have 100k to spend on an SSL or a Neve console, then you aren't going to get anything amazing in the eq department. For those looking for budget mixing boards, mackie is a typical and decent choice, but these mixing boards aren't even middle of the road as...

How does this heel-toe technique work exactly? I've heard of it before, and tried it out, but I must be doing something wrong because it didn't work right at all. When I place my foot all the way up my drum pedal until my toes hit the chain, my heel just barely reaches past the hinge at the bass...

Yes, you can do this. It would be more than a pain in the ass to deal with live and probably not worth it, but it is definitely possible. Actually I read somewhere that Radiohead does this for a certain guitar effect they use live. One of the guitarists splits his signal of to a mac and uses it...
