    Stereo or Mono?

    Both. (or at least i am) Sometimes people use a stereo mic setup and use up 2 tracks for that in recording or will pan something that is on one track in the mixdown. Recording in mono is very basically not panning any of the tracks in mixing and not having any 2 tracks with a stereo image. The...

    Stereo or Mono?

    Mono is the new black. I personally record everything to mono and use stereo reverb on the final mix to fake slight stereo. One thing to note is that people listen to music on infinite systems having wild degrees of quality so if your big L.A. power ballad guitar solo is panned hard left (the...

    SP T3 power supply + phantom power = kaloooey!?

    Thanks for taking the time to post a response alan (and one i was hoping to hear as well!). Luckily your mics are as great as your customer support. Hopefully that sounds like a compliment. It's sorta like when your good friends are in a really bad band: "Alan is so nice and helpful but his mics...

    POLL: underrated and cheap secret weapons. 1st example incl. MP3: siemens W295b EQ

    Furman RV-1 spring reverb. $50 on eBay (still < $100 sometimes). Get that HUGE lush analog springy Red Sovine/Minnie Pearl/Boxcar Willie vocal or snappy old skool sound.

    Should I consider these?

    RNC With the RNC there are no artifacts of compression; you'll keep asking if it's on. For $200 it is an amazing deal and i don't think you'll find too many people that are unhappy with it. Though i haven't heard the others i would imagine since they are tube they are going to give you a more...

    SP T3 power supply + phantom power = kaloooey!?

    Thanks for posting again ausrock. I was reading a bit of attitude in the replies to something that didn't really warrant sass. This isn't so in your case. :) Thank you.

    SP T3 power supply + phantom power = kaloooey!?

    indeed the warning HAS BEEN NOTED and is why i posted. the unanswered question still remains: will phantom power fry the power supply and if so why? I thought someone in this forum might have insight as to how a power supply works. Thanks for the comments.

    SP T3 power supply + phantom power = kaloooey!?

    calm down yo. I was asking because i don't have individual channel control of phantom power on my mixer so i can't use my T3 with other condensors unless i get an outboard pre. I thought i was posting on home recording instead of RAP. I'll be more careful next time. :rolleyes: Thanks for the...

    SP T3 power supply + phantom power = kaloooey!?

    SP T3 power supply + phantom power = kabloooey!? I just got the Studio Projects T3 and for the little time i have spent with it, it is quite lovely. I have a question about phantom power and the power supply that powers the mic. The manual says to not use phantom power but does not say why. I...

    Studio Projects VTP-1 available?

    sometime next month todd from soundpure.com recently replied swiftly with a price quote for some mics and an answer for the above inquiry: "the sp preamp has not yet been released... due out sometime next month." perpetual never release schedule i guess.

    Opinions needed.....

    Other thread check out this link about small condensers. https://homerecording.com/bbs/showthread.php?threadid=46800 ribbon mics are also suggested. consider also the oktava mc 012 with the 3 interchangable heads as it might provide additional flexibility. as you say, the ones you've listed...

    small condenser

    Which range? Which range do you mean? The oktava mc 012 is a small diaphram condenser like the ones you have asked for opinions. The oktava is amazing, even disreguarding the price tag.

    Opinions needed.....

    so many options. As you probably know there are 10zillion good small condensers. Both of the ones you have chosen will be good for your applications. I've always found the sm81 to be a tad harsh for my tastes but on wooden picked instruments it might highlight some frequencies you want. Just...

    3 mic drum set up with a new Studio Projects C1 overhead (MP3 sample)

    Amazing drums Thanks alot for posting the mp3. I'm a big fan of minimal drum micing. Your recording sounds really great. How does it sound in a mix? I would like to hear more if you have stuff. I just got a studio projects T3 so i hope it is as good as the C1. I would also really love to check...

    Tube preamp opinions

    Universal Audio I don't know if the Universal Audio 2-610 (2 channels, tube) was out when this thread started but it has a really nice warm tight mid clarity that i like with a ribbon and small condenser that i tried. Pretty hefty price tag though. I too am really excited to hear the studio...
