    Large Ensemble Mic Placement

    When I recorded my high school's band concerts last year, I did an x/y or ortf pair pretty much right above the conductor's head, as high as it could go. This way, the mics hear fairly closely what the conductor hears, and he can then control the mix for you, that's his job. Worked really well.

    Presonus TUBEPRE question

    I believe that those things will run without a tube in them, because the tube in that circuit does practically nothing. I don't think that the tube is your problem. I could be wrong, though. It has happened WAY more times than I'm willing to admit.

    RP50 Question

    You need to adjust the amp level (under the amp model), for each patch so that they match. RTFM. :D

    Holes in side of acoustic?

    link Just saw this picture, and I was wondering something. What is the purpose of the holes in the side of this guitar? Are they just auxilliary soundholes or something? Thanks!

    Sonic Maximizer question

    My guess is that they had good instruments, had a good FOH engineer, and that he had MUCH more to do with the great sound than the maximizer did. Also, (don't know if this is true or not, but I wouldn't put it past them.) I heard that when you "bypass" some of these maximizers, they are...

    Hum from bass strings

    I'm just going on experience here; when I assembled my guitar that I built, I forgot to run the bridge grounding wire. It would hum a lot, but when I touched the strings, it would go away. Then, I put the grounding wire in, and the problem went away. Just my experience. :D It very well...

    new acoustic

    My guess is that he just had a problem with a guitar that just happened to be a cutaway, and then generalized it to all cutaways. Not that he is completely wrong, but I just think that other aspects of a guitar can make a larger difference on the sound than the presence or lack of a cutaway.

    cracking sounds in WAV files--HELP

    You may also want to check that your clocks are synchronized while transferring digitally. EDIT: oops. You said you were getting it with analog too. Halion nailed it.

    dazed and confused

    I believe that it was actually a cello bow, as they have more hair on them, and are sturdier. But Jimmy Page still ripped through them anyway. :D (nitpick, nitpick, nitpick. sorry. :) )

    XLR vs. TRS

    I have done it, so yes, it works. At least for me. :D

    bass recording

    If the bass amp has a line out, I would say that it would be preferable to use that, rather than miking the cab in a live situation.

    Solid State / Modeler / Tube shootout!

    I was actually thinking the exact opposite thing. The modeller sounded more processed to me, and seemed like it would get lost very easily. But, I suppose this is all subjective anyway. :D

    Babicz Guitars

    My favorite part about it is having the adjustable action, so that you could play slide on it, with really high action, and then just crank it back down, and do fingerstyle stuff. That's just really cool.

    Tube Mics: Worth it?

    It completely depends on the microphone. There are some tube mics that have a "warmth", and non-tube mics that are clean and clinical. On the flip side, there are also tube mics that are very clinical and clean, and warm non-tube mics. It all depends.
