Making a new uke, and i was trying to match one of my existing ukes because i like the fingerboard so much. It's a 15 inch scale which is more like a small concert scale, but it's on a soprano size body. So i can place the bridge wherever i want. Ukes usually use the same gauge strings for...

So i'm trying to make a fingerboard for a uke and was wondering if i could just use one of the extra guitar fingerboards i have sitting around if i just start the first fret farther up. I can slide them up and down side by side with my other uke until i find a spot where they almost line...

hey sweetbeats, Just an aside here. Always enjoy your over the top detail obsession posts. Especially the photos. Very good detail. Do you have to compress them to post here? thanks and keep up the good work

i only own four mics... hey, wait a minute....

my understanding is he records on the 388 them throws it into a daw and adds additional stuff and edits in the box. Maybe someone ( hi kelley) can confirm? from his comments, i gather he is aiming for a mid-fi approach. It seems to me that the whole "indie pop" esthetic is kind of a...

Hey sweets, I appreciate the in depth explanation. If i ever see a reasonably priced one in good shape around here, maybe i'll give it another try.

been thinking about getting, er, one. anybody care to comment on the mic? i called them, and they confirmed it was an omni. i like apogee stuff, but i get a kick out of companies with their marketing language sometimes. In this case it is " tuned aperture technology' whatever that means...

Hi Cjacek, yes i was comparing fidelity to 15 ips half inch. I was comparing build quality to my 488 and 80-8 which seem more solid. I'm not saying someone is "wrong" for liking this machine, it just seems that a lot of people really like this machine and i can't figure out why. Maybe i...

I know these 388's are a cult item, but why do you all think that is? I have to think the all in one design is the main reason. Because when i tried to get mine working, and took it apart, i didn't find it that robust. especially for how heavy they are. and if you look at the specs, they...

Any for sale used around here? thanks

Just my opinion, but i wouldn't buy new. Drums remind me of cars where they lose value as you drive them off the lot. In my local craigs, there are fantastic deals every week on used drums. If they don't have to match, or be collectable, or be in perfect condition, so much the better. The...

uh... Am I missing something here? Width divided by the number of tracks?

yeah, I'm going to have Terry re-do my rollers. having factory parts is nice, but don't want to have to check ebay every day for who knows how long.

They said to check in next month. They also said they may announce next month that it will not be available anymore. I'm sad to see a lot of these parts disappear, but I can't really blame them. After all, some of these machines are 30 years old.

Anybody got an extra counter roller, also known as a footage roller for a 48? thanks

my right foot.

i have some vice grips and other pliers with round jaws. That helps with not deforming the mic housing. You could also make a gripper out of wood and then put it in a bench vise or vice grip. First, cut a hole in a piece of wood the same size as the mic body with a hole saw or use a zig or...

teach a man to fish and he will bore you with fish stories.

nice. You should post this up in the analog section.
