Hiya! I´m looking for a multi-input FW interface for my 12" G4/1.5 Ghz Powerbook. On paper the Hercules FW 16/12 looks very tempting, I would really, REALLY love to have those 12 analog inputs. However, the company is not known for pro (or even prosumer) audio products and their reputation...

Hello everyone! I am on a lookout for a new mic pre. Currently I am using Mindprint DI-Port and while I am quite satisfied with it I would like to have something different to complement it. To me Mindprint is pretty clean and transparent, perhaps a bit on the bright side. So I am looking...

Fellow Europeans! Please share your information about online music stores that ship all around EU (or Finland at least). I´m particularly interested in places that sell Studio Projects, Oktava, FMR and like. It´s frustrating to read about all this stuff when its nowhere to be found on this side...

Okay (*takes a deep breath*)... I like MIDI karaoke (you guys back there, stop laughing). It´s fun and it´s a great way to practice singing. And it´s great drinking activity too. The problem is that despite excessive searching, I haven´t found a MIDI karaoke player that would support software...

Haya! I would like to hear your recommendations for a good horn sample libraries/softsynths. I´m looking for soul/jazz horns: trumpets, trombones and saxes of all sizes. They would be used mainly as arranging help. I play in a big band and I can get good players to do the final parts if...

Hello again! Here´s the deal: I play in an amateur big band. We are doing a little Christmas concert for our friends and relatives and I would like to record that show. The easiest way would of course be a stereo recording with two room mics. However, the acoustics of the room leave a lot to...

I was wondering: they might not be of much use for a home recordist but just for the sake of it, what is the design principle behind shotgun microphones? I don´t think Harveys big mic thread covered this one... I did a search, but didn´t find anything - well, except a rather amusing thread...

Haya! First, let me state out that I do know the principles of M/S-setup (1 cardioid, 1 Fig of, split, phase etc.). My question is: how similar do the two mics have to be? I understand that a cardioid can never sound exactly same as a figure of 8, but would two similar multi-pattern mics be...

Haya there! Mic mania has struck me again and as you know, resistance is futile... As it says in the subject, my mind is set on a large dynamic. There seems to be three major players in this field: Sennheiser MD421, Shure SM7 and E-V RE20. I don´t have any experience on these beasts (Actually I...
