hm There is a difference between amplifying a signal and not being able to play your own song. Also, if a COMPOSER wants to try making a brilliant song using tape tricks thats a completely different thing than a bunch of dudes who cant play not knowing where the verse goes without the...

mixing KRKs are fine for what you are doing Allen. If anyone says otherwise they are being ridiculous. Just use a pair of decent stereo speakers and a hi-fi until you can get some KRKs. Once you have them, set your system up so that you can switch between the regular speakers and the KRKs to...

metal headz Bratty idiotic know-it-all youth eh? Gonna change the world and show us all that the past was just bullshit eh? Ive seen this human phenomenon before... Once they realize the dreams a dream and the wife and kids are screamin and none of the "guys" can hang tonight because...

music Whats easier? writing and performing a great song that people actually want to hear over and over (non family and friends), or getting a cool sounding synth tone or drum machine loop? Its obvious which one is easier. And so, thus ends the great mystery of why there are a million sound...

dont forget Dont forget about Orban parametric EQs.

parts Well, if each time you take it apart and put it back together you have extra parts, just do it over and over until you have enough parts to build another one.

You You are going to have a good setup once you get it going. I know people sometimes fear splitting a cassette tape into 8 tracks, but i have heard many great sounding albums that were done on 8 track cassette. In fact, a couple of my favorite records were done on 8 track cassette and then...

dont man Dont go spreadin' gnaw-ledge 'bout the heavenly glory of tape you fools... 'less'n you want folks is comin' over them hills ta take what we got fer their own. Ebay prices is already sky-high and the pickins is gettin slim.

wellp It kind of depends on what you are planning to do with the mixer in terms of how many channels you need etc, or how you like to do things in your own particular way. Have you found yourself needing (not just wanting) a certain feature or function when you are mixing things? How are you...

casa cassette I sent you a PM regarding the m30. You may or may not find my 2 cents useful, but i sent them over to ya anyways.

Fostex I love this dude. One of the only interesting people on youtube. Thats right, i said it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kAtgFj3IXiY

tape and analog Everyone already knows this, but i like tape and analog things in general because the harder you push them, the more the character of the unit is heard as the components do their best to deal with what is happening in a very real and physical way. For me, digital is just a...

let me know Let me know if you need some 38 parts. I have a 38 here ive been meaning to part out for a long time. If i recall correctly, all the meter lights work on mine. Also, the heads are in great shape, and one of the motors is new from Tascam.

yes As a big fan of all music, i have found an uncountable amount of decent modern musicians. But but BUT... There is just something about that good old classic style writing that relies heavily on sky-high harmonies and hooks. Right now alot of popular music is drunk with its own power...

I bought a Tascam 44 months ago and found out that it was once owned by the animatronics studio that created the ShowBiz Pizza animatronic characters. And once in awhile i go on ebay to see if any other 44s pop up, but they rarely seem to. But today i found a guy selling one and it looks like it...

man All i can say is, AWESOME SOUNDING RECORDING. Seriously. Punchy, crisp, warm, and even with so many volatile percussive types of instruments and playing styles the recording never gets harsh or sonically obnoxious.

tape I have a Roland Space Echo and the tape that is in it is old and spliced in an amateur way. But, whenever it hits that splice, or certain parts of the tape, the echos sound like they are skipping a little bit while "choking". I put in a nice new tape and it didnt sound as magical, so i put...

oh man Im so tempted. I need a tape machine that works well and uses 1/4" tape. ha ha... "need".

hm Interesting and sickening all at once. I mean, its a great thing i suppose, but this line bugs me: "Additionally, it gives commercial recording facilities something unique that people cannot get at a typical home studio.” There are many many things that typical home studio doesnt have. And...
