Just wondering if you guys think the stock tubes are OK, ot if there's an upgrade that just WOWed you? Anyone?

A testament to the durability of Shure's SM57 and SM58. http://www.homestudioguru.com/766/the-ultimate-microphone-shootout/

I see all these new and exciting mics from Marshall (MXL) and I look at the specs, which look good on paper for the most part, and I look at the prices (which are now getting up there with boutique mics) and I think "hey, maybe they're learning and doing something new! Something like - better...

Hey guys, Thought I'd post the final pics of my restoration of my two Soundelux e47's that was part of that restoration project I began more than a year ago. It was part of the batch of mics I recieved from the guy who bought a load of left over parts in an auction. In exchange for fixing up a...

I was just getting into this band. The Rev was a damn good drummer. http://www.foxnews.com/entertainment/2009/12/29/drummer-avenged-sevenfold-dead/?test=latestnews

I have either dislocated, pulled a tendon on, or broken my right index finger!!:mad: I won't know until I can get it X-rayed. I have it in a splint for now.:( That is all.

Need opinions: I am am trying to decide between a Shure Beta 52, an AKG D112 and Audix D6. I want a nice thwap and punch, but want it to be versatile enough to go from punk to country. Is that asking too much? Which would you choose? Or should I hold out for an AKG D12? Any other options?

I am in the beginning of recording tracks for a friend in Canada via the internet. Though I'm probably not supposed to post this I thought I'd get opinions of the tracks I recorded for him. All he sent me was some guitar tracks and rough vocals to work from. He asked me to do a lot of percussion...

If you were to build the ultimate tube microphone today, what parts/qualities would you use? Generic, I know, but I wanna see what people have dreamed about. Any combination/suggestion welcome.

I finally got done rebuilding a Soundelux e49 for myself from the SD parts I acquired. I used a Dave Ulan M7 that I've had for a while. It doesn't sound like the standard e49 that I rebuilt using a Soundelux K47 or a Peluso PK47. Its very round without very much high end at all, though it seems...

Anybody know of a sub-miniature triode tube that would be the same as 1/2 of a 12AY7 or similar? Not looking for two triodes in one tube, just one triode with the same sort of specs. Thanks.

I have been rebuilding some mics left over from parts and circuits left over from Soundelux. I ran into a road block. The machinist making the bodies got one done for one of the e47 (U47 copy) mics. I bought aluminum pipe that was 2.5" outer diameter and 2.25" inner diameter. The 2.25" inner...

Why must my mono songs become converted to "stereo" on cd (1,2,3 ... Last Page) This thread has been closed by the moderators for being too off topic.

I just saw an add for the MXL V67N, which looks like the 603, but green and gold like the v67G. I made the assumption with the Genesis that it was a painted version of the 960, which turned out to be incorrect. Any insight to share on this one? ...if you're here?:(

We have been spammed over and over by this guy, claiming he is not only a self proclaimed "Master Percussionist" as he is "called by his students" (yet no one else in the world proclaims him as such), but also calls himself "Dr."! Specifically "Dr. Zaragemca", which isn't even his real name...

Just so I'm clear on something...how exactly do you pronounce "SCHOEPS"?

Scored a deal on eBay for a TCM1100 for $90. Hell of a mic!! Not one of the new models, but an unused original 797 version. You can tell by the beveled ring at the bottom of the grill. Since I am one to keep files around of the innards for my own edification I happened to compare the guts of...

and who injured or were effected by this crash. http://www.cnn.com/SHOWBIZ/ Pray that if he pulls through that the pain and recovery are short. Not my favorite type of music or favorite drummer, but a damn good one! My heart goes out to all of them! P

OK, I'm hoping Harvey will tell us something about this mic in this thread and the drama can play out in the other one. I for one would like to have some details before I buy one myself to see what it's like and my wife divorces me for buying another mic. Any pics or samples Harvey...

Because they slapped some red paint on it, gold plated the grill and made it their "flagship" microphone.:rolleyes: http://www.mxlmics.com/condenser_mic/GENESIS/GENESIS.htm
