I WAS WONDERING,IF I USE A AKG C 3000, WILL THE 48V PHANTOM POWER IN MY MIXER POWER IT PROPERLY? THE AKG SUGGESTS 52V TO BE USED, ALSO THANKYOU GREEN HORNET FOR THE YAMAHA DRUM PAGES, I GOT THEM.
I HAVE A SM57 SM58 AND A FRIEND HAS THE BG3.1 NOT MUCH DIFFERENCE IN THE SOUND QUALITY BETWEEN THEM, BUT I WOULD RATE THE BG 3.1 THIRD ONLY SLIGHTLY. I DON'T THINK IT WOULD PAY TO GET A 58 SINCE YOU HAVE THE 3.1. ASSUMEING YOUR ON A BUDGET AND MAYBE WANT TO PICK UP ONE MORE MIC. WHY NOT CHECK...
ODIZZY, IF WE ALL CAME OUT OF THE SHUTE ALL KNOWING, ALL COMPLETE,ALL WE WOULD HAVE IS TIME , THAT COULD BE A PROBLEM. WHAT I HAVE FOUND, LINE ONLY INS DON'T HAVE GAINS OR TRIM TO BOOST YOUR SIGNAL SOURCE SO YOU EITHER HAVE TO TURN YOUR VOLUME UP TO MT. ST. HELENS LEVELS, BAD IF YOU LOVE YOUR...
HOPE SOMEONE CAN HELP.I JUST BOUGHT A USED YAMAHA RX21 DRUM MACHINE ON EBAY. IT DID'NT COME WITH A MANUAL. HOW DO YOU RECORD YOUR DRUM PATTERNS AND WHATS THE PROCEDURE TO ERASE THEM?
I DON'T KNOW HOW REALISTIC OR PRACTICAL THIS IS IN MOST "REAL WORLD" APLICATIONS, BUT THE BEST PLACE I HAVE CONCLUDED TO RECORD VOCALS AND DRUMS IS IN A HOUSE THATS UNDER CONSTRUCTION,DRYWALL INSTALLED, WITH ONE COAT OF TAPE. SOUNDS MONSTOROUS
ANGELLO, I AM CURIOUS ABOUT THE FOSTEX 380.I'M ALL TASCAM BUT I SAW A DESCRIPTION OF THE 380 IN A 3 YEAR OLD MUSICIANS FRIEND THAT LED ME TO BELIEVE THIS WAS THEIR BEST RECENT 4 TRACK.IT WAS AROUND 1000.00 THEN AND HAD DOLBY S.IT SAID IT WAS SCARY HOW CLOSE TO DIGITAL IT SOUNDED. IF A FOSTEX...
THANKS FOR THE HELP GUYS, I APPRECIATE WHAT YOU SAID RHOADZ, THAT YOU CAN HEAR THE DIFFERENCE IN THESE "FLAT"RESPONSE UNITS AS OPPOSED TO REGULAR STEREO SPEAKERS, AND GLAD YOU GUYS LIKE EM, I WILL GO TO SAM ASH AND GIVE EM A LISTENING. HR
I'M CONSIDERING PURGHASING ALESIS POINT SEVEN MONITORS. I LIKE THE FACT THAT THEY ARE SMALL BUT I'M CONCERNED ABOUT THE SIZE OF THESE AS IN PERFORMANCE.,THEY'RE ONLY 11 INCHES HIGH AND 7 INCHES WIDE.TO BORROW A OLD LINE "SIZE DOES'NT MATTER",FORGIVE ME, BUT DOES IT? SHOULD I GO WITH MONITOR...
I'M PROBABLY THE LOWEST TECH GUY WHO VISITS THIS POST,I HAVE TOO MUCH INVESTED IN ANALOG,SO I'M COMMITED TO THIS DOMAIN AND LOVE THE CHALLANGE OF STRIVEING TOWARDS PROFESSIONAL RESULTS WITHIN THE CONFINES OF THIS EQUIPMENT . I HAVE A TASCAM 488MKII DBX, A 246 DBX,A 388 DBX, AND IF THAT WERE'NT...
Hello there drstawl,Thanks for the clarification on my comment, But is it fair to say that dumping down to the cd is better as far as sonic value than to tape?
Hello There Stewey, If you decide on a cassette tape based system,use what I use. Tascam 488MkII,A great machine thats a good buy today.run your mix through a BBE sonic maximizer,"the 262 is under a 100.00 dollars" and buy a philips dual cd recorder.you can mix down to the philips,so there's no...
I WAS WONDERING IF SOME FOLKS WHO ENJOY THIS SITE HAVE EXPERIENCE WITH BOTH DECKS, I'M INTERESTED TO HEAR SOME OPINIONS ABOUT SOUND QUALITY.SPECIFICLY IF THE 238 SOUNDS NOTICABLY BETTER.YOU CAN GET A 238 FOR A FRACTION OF THE ORIGINAL COST THESE DAYS.
I FORGOT TO MENTION THAT KEEPING THE SIGNAL AS TIGHT AND STEADY ON THE TRACK VU METER IS WHAT I'M LOOKING FOR,MEANING THE SIGNAL STAYS RESTRICTED TO -3 TO 0.AND SHAPEING THE SOUND FROM THERE,IF I CAN ACHIEVE THAT,I THINK THE REST WILL FALL IN PLACE
WHAT I'M AFTER IS A SMOOTH TIGHT EVEN SOUND THAT IS PRESENT IN A MIX, BUT NOT DOMINANT..I AM GUILTY OF NOT KNOWING THE WORKINGS OF MY FURMAN COMP/GATE,OTHER THAN THE IN OUT GAIN,BUT I'M HOPEING THAT SOUND IS AVAILABLE WITH THIS UNIT,IF YOU KNOW WHAT SETTING RANGE TO WORK IN,DO YOU HAVE A PREFERANCE?
I have a tascam 488mkII,a tascam 246 4 track,and a tascam 388 reel to reel 8 track mixer/recorder combo.I love them all for different reasons. For messin around with Ideas,the 246 is my main deck of choice.It's built like a tank,a bit bigger than the newer portastudios,almost as big as a...
