    Tots - catchy new wave like stuff

    Had the immense pleasure of recorded an EP with my mates. In my ears they are a bit similar to Television, The Cars, Blondie and maybe Tom Petty on his first album. I nicked a tecnique from Roy Thomas Baker of stacking up the background vocals in the outro. There's 20 or more voices there...

    Folk tune; Sweet Lovely Friend

    Sweet Lovely Friend by Lasse Krog | Free Listening on SoundCloud I did owe my mate a favour and besides I have wanted to record more quiet music for a while now and recording a talented friend was a good way to practice this without too much pressure. The tune is kind of Cohen or Van...

    Wonderland Avenue - debut EP, dirty rock 'n' roll

    Recorded, mixed and produced this EP for a local new band. Filthy rock 'n' roll, powerful energy and great melodies. All analog recording and mixing, the only thing digital is a hammond emulation on a digital keyboard. Hope you like it. Change | Wonderland Avenue

    Layered psychedelic madness

    Been messing around with this since March now inbetween recording other bands and playing some rock 'n' roll. There's a lot of inspiration from Turkish 70's psychedelia along the lines of Erkin Koray and Selda Bagcan. I found it important to keep a lot of spontanity in the process and as I keep...

    Small job for one of you: Running master through a good two track?

    Alright, so this band I recorded a few months ago had some other guy do the mastering. Sounds okay but suffers from the classic problem of digital mastering for everyone but the very best ME's: slightly hyped and plastic like highs and high mid. So can any of you send it through a two track...

    Easy and cheap way to limit volume from analog to audio interface

    Hey guys, its been a while. Still run a Fostex G16C and DDA Q desk, mixing down to digital 2 track and still working nicely. However it has annoyed me for a while that I have to turn the desk way down low not to clip digital since our EMU 0404 doesn't have a pad. I had a non-functional MCI...

    MCI JH-110 A-2 won't move tape

    This nice old producer I know gave me a MCI JH-110 A-2 - needless to say I'm over the moon. However it doesn't move tape. Most lights are working except on the section with the transport where only "torque limit" light up. Nothing happens when I press play. I wondered if these could have a...

    Tots: Surfboard (new wave/punk)

    Surfboard by tots | Free Listening on SoundCloud Lately I had the pleasure of recording these guys at my small analog studio. They're kind of punk and new wave, to my ears there's a bit of The Cars, Libertines and Television to their sound but that's highly subjective I guess. Recorded with...

    Electric Scar - Rubber Boy

    So I'm in this duo with an old mate. Till March last year we had never actually played together despite of a similar taste in music and love for analog recording. We've finished an album of mostly classic, dirty rock and roll with him singing lead vocals, writing the songs and me playing the...

    The Motivation Radio - Be My Anita Pallenberg

    Hey there... This is my first post in the MP3 clinic but hopefully not the last. Haven't been focusing that much on writing my own music in the past year, more recording other bands and playing various instruments in a duo with a friend who writes all the songs. However I do run a casual solo...

    RMT branded SM911 and SM900

    Hey there! Any of you know what's up with the new company producing the old BASF and AGFA formulas? It's made in France so suppose it's still Pyral. However has anyone tried it yet? I had some trouble with two reels of Pyral made SM911 a year ago, hopefully their quality control has improved...

    Putting a tape echo on top of PSU?

    I'm one of these dumbasses who havn't got a rack yet. Just got a Dynacord Echocord Mini from a mate and as it stands haven't got space for it anywhere but on top of the PSU for the desk. The PSU has a retro fitted fan and the there's almost a centimeter/0,39 inches between the units. Wondering...

    What is transistions?

    Hey there... it's been a while... hope you're all doing well out there. I was reading this article where Mike Spitz mentions a term called "transitions" as a way of measuring audio quality. It left me wondering what that means? Havn't been able to find anything usefull on Google, though I might...

    BASF LH-R/SPR 50 any good?

    Hey there! Any of you people have experience with some old formulation BASF tape? It's called either LH-R, SPR50 or both? I found it as half inch for a ridicously low price. I don't mind if it is a +3 tape, saturation has its uses for certain kinds of music. What I do mind if it's SSS, is...

    DDA Q desk: Strange power issues

    We had our DDA Q for half a year now and love it's sound. However a serious issue has been occuring more than a few times. It's light will start blinking and if it doesn't get a break it won't pass any sound till it had a break. I suspect either the PSU, the cable between the PSU and the desk or...

    Fostex G16 service manual

    Does anyone of you have a service manual for the regular G16 without the "S" or even better a straight up solution to our issue? One of our G16's won't erase properly on all tracks and our tech who's usually a wizard can't figure out how to sort it. He's been looking for a service manual all...

    DDA Q series vs. Soundcraft Vienna II

    In a huge dilemma as for mixing desks. We plan on retirering our Fostex 820 in favour of something more profesional and flexible. We're on a budget of around 800 euro and the choice seems to be between two front of house live desks, both with sufficient direct outs and subgroups which makes...

    Annoying clicks during mixdown

    Hello fellow tapeheads... I've got a really annoying issue that have been going on for quite a while. When mixing down from tape to 2-track digital (M Audio Fast Track in lack of better) I often discover small clicks that ain't on the recording and is only audible on headphones or on earth...
