I was just checking out some NOS 456 reels on eBay, asking the guy to provide me with the date codes on the box so I could decide if it was safe or not (it wasn't, made in '92)...and I started thinking about how NOS reels are becoming less and less listed. :( In my situation...I have accumulated...

Spoke with Cory a couple of days ago via email...he was forced to evacuate his home with his family due to the Oregon fires. At that time, his house was not in imminent danger, but the fires were getting closer, so it was a precautionary evac as I understood him...but I'm not sure how things are...

I wanted to bring this discussion to a new thread, rather than where it was started, so as not to mess up the topic in the other thread. Dive in...let's kick it around here...this was the original comment.

Getting ready to order materials for my DIY acoustic panels, but I also want to add some diffusers at least on my back wall. While I do know the differences between the basic types of diffusers (QRD, Skyline, Fractal, etc), and how they work and how to determine which frequency range the will...

I got a newsletter email today from Sweetwater, and one of the articles was about the cost of high-end preamps...so I thought I would post a link to that article for all the guys who have ever asked about them...or argued against the value of buying and using them. Why Do Boutique Preamps Cost...

I finally decided to get a high end bass preamp/amp box (Sonic Farm - Tantra) which is probably meant more for studio use (why I got it) since it comes with a slew of options, and not just the typical volume/tone controls. https://sonicfarm.com/tantra-bass-preamp/ It's stock as just a...

I have an opportunity to get some of these: ATS Acoustics Studio Stacker, Gobo Panel There is a local guy who has 16 of them...like new...and he's asking $1500 for the lot, which is a great deal considering they cost about $200 each, plus shipping. The thing I'm curious about them is how well...

The videos are a few years old, but cover in detail some copyright topics and more importantly, how your music generates money (or why you many not be seeing any money from streaming services). The presenter curses a few times...so maybe NSFW...but overall good info...in great detail. I only...

My new studio build has finally begun, with the initial excavation for the footings/slab beginning today. I'm going to update with more pictures as the build progresses through the different main stages of construction. Day 1

So in all the commotion of the day...I completely forgot to mention the new amp that showed up at my door. :) I scored a Fender '57 Custom Twin Amp. :cool: This is not the high-powered Twin...but the 40W Tweed, which has been called by many "one of the best amps ever made"...but that's...

I recently mentioned in the Prime "goals" thread that I was possibly going to be doing a studio expansion in the near future. Today I met with a contractor, and we kicked around some ideas. This will involve an addition, and also some overall house remodeling...but the addition and the existing...

Happened to see this pic in the story today about Aretha's passing....and couldn't help notice the tissue or handkerchief that is strategically placed on the mic...I assume to cut out reflections (?)...or...? Wonder if anyone has ever seen this before or knows of the specific reason why, and...

A coupe of months back in a Tele thread...(I think it was)...I had mentioned how this past winter I decided to sell my Fender '52 RI Tele, after having it since '95, but just not playing it hardly at all, due to the fact that I could never warm up to the feel of the '52 neck with it's very...

I got a newsletter email with mixing "tips" from Waves, and one of the topics was about over-compression. I see a LOT of people here always saying to others, "You don't have any/enough compression, you need do add compression to this and that" ...and it has become like some sort of magic process...

Came across these new stands and add-ons from Triad-Orbit...and totally blown away by the design and quality. Some of you might have seen these already...but I think they are a fairly new design and production, so I figured it might be of interest to anyone looking for top-notch mic stands, and...
