I am thinking of buying this cabinet from IKEA for my mics, so they are 'on display', easy to get at and still locked up to keep my 4 yr old out. FABRIKOR Glass-door cabinet - black-blue - IKEA What do you think?

Here's some mics to check out What is your budget for a new mic? Let's assume your budget is about $350 An SM7b is a dynamic mic, but a darn good one at that. It is used extensively for spoken word vocals. In the same range and also a great dynamic mic is the Electrovoice RE-50. I have never...

Is it worth it to make a acoustic diffuser that doesnt use math in its design? I am thinking of building some diffusers that are similar to this: Vicoustic Multifuser Wood 64 Diffuser Does it have to use a QRS (Quadratic Residue Sequence) to be relatively effective? The one in the link above has...

Tall mic stand I agree the quickest and cheapest thing to do would be take your existing zoom and record with that and see how it sounds. The quality you will get is in the ears of the listener-it may be just fine for your purpose. You can get a tall stand intended for video lighting here...

There are many ways to record piano. If you want stereo you need two mic sources. For classical if you want to sound like you were in the hall audience, a good way to record is with two mics in an X/Y configuration (also a M/S- mid/side setup is great). Guitar Center sells a cheap X/Y bar that...

Try: 1) Kick only first. DONT overdo the bass, put some midrange bump in to emphasize the THUMP. Compress to control any major volume discrepancies in the kick. 2) If there are overhead tracks, let them do most of the rest. EQ the overheads to get some sizzle and room. 3) If there are multiple...

This is more of a problem in the A to D conversion process. Lower volumes (gain) have fewer bits in conversion to work with. The faders themselves should not have anything to do with it, unless perhaps they are digital faders that present fewer bits of resolution at lower levels. The idea of...

Hi: You might want to consider a couple of changes. USB Interface- I would recommend perhaps a PreSonus AudioBox USB- details below. They go for about $150 US. It would give you two inputs with decent preamps, USB and phantom power for condensor mics. While using a dynamic mic is OK, more so for...

Also, I wouldn't mind mixing to my Otari MTR-12 (analog tape)- that could warm up the tracks. So in that case I would take the outs from the computer to line ins on the DDA, mix out to stereo (or 4 tracks) on the Otari. Still would have to Master back to the computer...

Well that brings up the question- lets say I have a bunch of tracks on the computer, and I want to do a mixdown. Whats the best way to bring that back out of the computer to the DDA and back in? Obviously if I want to do that, I am going to need something that can output multiple tracks...

In my home studio I have a lot of old gear, such as PAIA synthesizers, self built tube amp, an OTARI MTR-12 4 track reel-reel, AKG TDU 7000 digital delay etc Up til recently my mixer was a Behringer DDX3216, interfacing to a Presonus Firewire Mobile and Apple Macintosh G4. My main keyboard is a...
