    MK 012, needs a waranty badly

    I tested out for the first time my new mk-012 pair and jesus did it make a noticeable improvement in the sound of my overheads. I've been using those ECM8000's and there is absolutely no comparison. For Blues/rock, those silly little oktavas I bought form guitar center are the shit. Now lets...

    at4033

    my pal at AT tells me that when the at4040 came out they renamed the at4033 to the at4033cl which stands for classic. apparently despite it being around for so many years, it is still a staple in many studios so AT has decided to let it hang around. The 4040's job was to improve on what...

    at 4033 ( 290) or C1 (200) HURRY

    its not just the specs. Check out recording magazines review of the mic and their opinions as well. Besides my buddy at Audio technica really doesn't have any reason to push either one, especially the lower priced 4040. He simply states that their R&D dept at audio technica feels the AT4040...

    at 4033 ( 290) or C1 (200) HURRY

    A good friend of mine works for Audio Technica in Stow, Ohio. He has told me that the only reason they keep the AT4033 around is that it has been sort of a standard "must have" in any mic locker for the past several years. With that said, he tells me that the specs for the AT4040 are actually...

    digital S/PDIF cords: quality important

    why is this? Do you get signal degradation if the resistance is different?

    digital S/PDIF cords: quality important

    I should know this and I know it applies to XLR and other analog cords, but to what degree does the qulity of digital cable play in the signal route. Is it okay to run out of the digital outs of my preamp with a simple rca cable like one uses for their stereo, or do I need something better...

    mic preamp suggestions under $500

    on that note, I also upgrade my at3525 to the at4040 which both here and recording magazine have given favorable reviews. so...i'm at a point where i think a new preamp is the next step. a good a/d converter would help, but i gotta have the preamp to begin with and like everyone, i'm limited...

    mic preamp suggestions under $500

    Well, to be honest, I have done a bit of reading on this forum over the past year and really made an attempt to follow some of the advice mentioned. I dry-walled my basement, put up owens corning 703 on the walls and carpeted the floor. The acoustics have improved drastically. My korg d16 is...
