Hi, I know this has been covered before a while back but are spectral analyzer's imperative for mixing (especially for home recordists without a refined ear and excellent monitors (to be able to actually visualise those hard to hear low bass frequencies rather than missing them)? I mean to...

Hey blue bear; have you seen what the guy over on pro rec thinks of those KRK V8's: Conclusion of article: http://www.prorec.com/prorec/articles.nsf/3fbdd95be86013f1862567f30025b305/7ee658e1cba3a77e86256ae10015266a?OpenDocument At the end of the day it's what your ears like. I think I'm...

Cheers mate; it seemed like there would be some obvious explanation as many mixers state global phantom power and many people record with condensors and dynamics together.

Hi, Quick question regarding phantom power on preamps. If a mixer has global phantom power does that mean that the phantom power is either on all channels and when it's off not on any? That is how I've understood it. The problem being using say two condensor mics and two shure sm-57's for...

Hi, For anyone who owns or has used the Soundcraft folio notepad what are the preamps like? It says they are studio qualtiy and clean but it would say that wouldn't it. I have a KORG D16 and need really to have the trim levels of the D16 as low as possible as they are noisey when up; I am...

Hi, I am looking for a preamp for recording a multiple of sources. I am leaning towards the Mindprint Envoice, Joe Meek VC-1Q or the DBX 386 (not 376). First things first; I have not tried any out yet (I ill of course before commiting) so I am going purely on what I've read so far. The...

Join the Yahoo U2 sound site discussion at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/u2sound/ I'm a member and get daily e-mails, part of an email that came today: I think the general consensus is that it is an orchestral- pitch shifted sound, aided by the ever present modulated delay. I won't go any...

Well regarding the price first. There are a few variables really but mainly what I would want to know is, are the songs good enough to warrant my spending $8 and the other part is the quality of the recordings. Was the album recorded at a studio, with a producer/engineer/arranger, with hi tech...

Hey; get this thread out of the songwriting forum, this is where the intellignet people hang out, LOL.

I made my own electronic kit about 6 months ago; I've made it as true to a real drum kit as possible. I have an a snare (8 inch), hit hat (which is semi-movable 6 inch), floor tom (10 inch), 5 toms (all 8 inch), and the best part, 3 fully movable cymbals, ride and two crashes. Off course I can...

Oh yeah,; with regard to the split-it has to be 50/50 really. Even though one of you has done the majority of the work, he came to you with the basis of the song and the original idea of the lyrics (even if not kept) and you reworked it/embellished it. The only way you could really argue it...

But if it's too much hassle, fuck the song and write another one. When all's said and done blues songs are that difficult to come up with; it's all been done before (well just about anyway). I try not to get others involved in my songwriting until the later stages. It's where all this music...

Here's what I've done to my Mexican tele; -Replaced the nut to graphite. -Replaced the tuners. -Did a complete fret job (took out those small fender frets and put jumbo dunlop wire instead). -Inserted carefully a 22nd fret like there should be (I think there are 22 on the american standards)...

The Edge of U2 owns at least three of these. He basically uses them to replace the use of an EBow on with or without you.

H2H; have you hit some hard times or just being realistic (knowing you can only play one guitar at once (or is that two))? I kinda' know how it feels (music as an occupation as opposed to a hobby). I had to sell one also this week (Casino (yeah and the casino too (and the yacht and golf...

Hey Mantal; you realise that even with a discount at Foxes you'll still be paying more than you should. the Foxes in the centre of Sheffield closed for this reason. What exact model are you looking to purchase and what price are you aiming for. I get huge discounts in a couple of shops in...

This has been covered many times before. If you want some more instant answers then search this forum via the search button or what I suggest you do as your new is to go to the bottom selection bars and choose from beginning (order, from). Like I said this has been covered many times and there...

Mental; Rotherham hey, about half an hour from me. I know why you are searching abroad for cheaper prices in the US, I've done the same. You get people on this forum complaining about prices that are still at cheapest a third more in the UK (generally speaking). Beware however. When the...
