Thanks for all of the advice guys. Wow, I knew it was going to be expensive, but there is no way I can afford $650 worth of repairs right now. The nearest Martin repair center is in Orlando, which is a 4 hour drive from where I live. Right now, it is obvious that it needs a fret job. After 53...

I'll be honest with you, when the song first started playing I thought "Oh no, not another 80s nightmare!" I really hated the drum machine and all the reverbed out guitar. But by the end of the song I actually found myself really getting into it. I really don't care for this style of music, so...

How many channels do you need? There are brand new, old stock soundcraft spirit F1s for sale on ebay right now for $219. They are rebadged with a JBL logo, but it's the real thing. Great deal for a 12 channel soundcraft mixer. Mine just came the other day and I can't believe that got such a nice...

I'm so excited that I just had to brag for a moment. I just scored a Martin today... for free! There had been this vintage Martin guitar floating around in my family for ages that rightfully belonged to my mother. It had somehow ended up at the wrong end of the family because of some mix ups...

I'd say that all it takes is being smart and having a realistic outlook, but then I wouldn't be smart or have a realistic outlook if I said that.

Thanks for clearing everything up bdemenil. That helped me out a lot. To SATA I go!

+248v!!! I want one! Give me power ye 'ole barge mic!

AKG makes some decent mics. Just stay away from the c1000 and c3000.

Okay, I think I'm confused here. Is PATA and IDE the same thing, because I thought ATA and IDE were two different formats?

I have compact, rounded IDE cables, so they really don't block airflow any more than an SATA cable would. C'mon, you guys seem really knowledgeable about this stuff; somebody must know what the actual technical tradeoffs are between IDE and SATA? If they are the same, then what's the deal with...

Thanks, but I'm not asking about SATA vs. PATA. I do have a SATA controller on my board and I'm wondering what the difference would be using the SATA controller instead of puting the hard drive on an IDE port like I normally would.

If you are handy with a soldering iron then you might also want to check out Hamptone pres. http://www.hamptone.com

I just recieved it today. It's the exact same board as the spirit F1, no changes. It just has a JBL logo on it. I think the F1 sold for about $475 when they were still in production. This is an incredible deal for the money! I can't believe I got it so cheap! It was still in the factory wrapper...

Thanks for answering my question about RAID arrays. Makes total sense now. But I'm still very curious about the performance and trade offs of IDE vs. SATA, because I'm going to be making a new hard drive purchase in the next few days and I'm a little confused about my options. If anyone could...

Some studios have access to equipment that very few people could ever afford. Most of it is vintage gear like fairchild compressors or neve consoles that cost more than a lot of nice houses. Others like Sear Sound have a lot of hand built equipment that nobody else has, but it is never this gear...

Hey first44, I've noticed that you also own a pair of mc012s and I was just wondering how they compare with the m179s as drum overheads? I was wondering because I was thinking about getting something as an alternative to the oktavas for overheads. I was leaning towards another at4040, but now...

MOTU bites the big one on pc. They just can't seem to get their drivers to work right on Windows OS.

Have you ever reformated and started clean before? It's the same deal.

Why don't you just look at the thread four spaces below yours titled OVERHEAD MICS.

You do realize that for only $190 anybody could buy these brand new right now from a certified dealer. I know that you don't want to lose money, but used is used and don't think anyone cares all that much about saving $10.
