I just picked this up for practically nothing: It's in pretty rough shape. I don't think it's been touched for 20 years... I've disassembled it and removed all the electronics. They'll all be replaced. Now, the next step is refinishing... but, I've read some conflicting things. "Sand it."...

I've become totally obsessed with pick history lately and now I'm on a journey of documenting them via a series of overview videos on YouTube.

Seriously. The absolute worst support I've ever received. I just bought a new desktop with Windows 8.1 installed. Windows Updates fail to install. Now, normally, I wouldn't care. I'd actually be delighted - we all know Windows updates will brick and audio system faster than I can finish this...

Hi all! I'm back on PC armed with Cubase 8 after a couple of years of using Mac exclusively. I have a question - is there an easy way to have mono audio output on windows? Macs just have a single button to click and it makes everything mono including interface output. I have a single...

After being fascinated with meat smoking for a couple of years, and just using indirect heat on my grill, I bought a cheapy brinkmann vertical smoker, cured it, modded it, and smoked a pork loin for my first cook yesterday. Turned out alright, but I had to keep refilling the water pan every...

Well, the combination of realizing I'm a gear hoarder and realizing the paychecks aren't coming in like they used to has brought me to the point of trying to sell of some gear. I thought I'd ask here before I have to resort to eBay. Ibanez AF75 w/ stand - $320 Novation Launchkey 61 w/ cable -...

[There's a TL;DR version at the bottom underneath the ______] A few years ago I cannibalized the off the shelf HP desktop I had. It was a nightmare process for me. I was limited to using AMD processors, the PSU was crappy, and the machine kept hitting me with the BSOD every time I opened...

My mixcube is dead center in the room. My Focals are equal distance from it and the side walls... But there's 40 inches tweeter to tweeter, and 36 inches from each tweeter to my ears :( Should I: A.) Do some repositioning of the monitors to get them 36 inches from each other at the risk of no...

I'm in Los Angeles for the week to see a Massive Attack show. Got to the hotel. Ordered some stuff. The large amount of food was about $50. But then we got a few drinks that weren't priced on the menu... and it turned into $80. And then I tipped $10. And orbitz said my hotel had a shuttle. But...

Any of you ever not gone to a gig for whatever reason(s) you would've otherwise went to? And then hated yourself for not going? In November/December I pre-ordered tickets to this. 3 of my all time favorite bands playing at the same time. 2 of which were disbanded when I started listening to...

This is stuck in my head in the worst way.

Sometimes I just want to listen through or work on monitors without plugging in my interface, powering on my mains, etc... I remembered that I still have my old KRK Rokit 6 monitors sitting in boxes... so I've decided to take advantage of them and use them for hassle-free monitoring from my...

Movies, television show, or games. Or ****. whatever can have a soundtrack. Here's one of my favorites: Particularly Cohen's Masterpiece. Apparently composed to torture pianists.

Can Neil Young & Pono ‘Restore The Soul Of Music’? » Synthtopia Thoughts? I've been dreaming of a .wav player for a while now. And I think someone we Q&A'd here a few years ago said he'd like to see a cloud based .wav player at some point in the future. But at $400 I don't see this doing...

About two years ago I bought some Roxul to build bass traps in my corners. And a gobo or two. But life got I'm the way and I never had time to build the frames and all that. So now two years later, the Roxul is still in my attic and I have a gigantic roll if burlap in my closet. I'm ready to...

So, I've got a problem with coke (the liquid, not the powder). I stopped drinking it for a while, but since October I've been drinking ridiculous amounts of it and have realized for health reasons I should probably cut that shit out. So, that's it - I'm quitting cold turkey and realizing that...

I'll upload pic(s) in a few hours when I'm around the mics if anyone is interested. But yeah. I bought a Rode M1 about a year ago and just don't use these. They're in excellent working and cosmetic condition and have lived their lives in my smoke free home. $100 (shipping included anywhere...

Not sure where to post this, but I figure since most people check here I'll post it here! The RPM Challenge I'm "entering" this year because after 8 years of making music I haven't released an "official" piece... EVER. They've always been demos or ideas or things that I made sure to point out...

Hi. It's me :p Still hanging out here in the newbie section. So earlier this year I was able to purchase a nice set of Focal CMS65 monitors. Unfortunately life happened and I've powered them on a handful of times - opting to listen to my Rokit 6s instead until I was able to properly welcome my...
