    Least expensive solid (no HPL) body Martin?

    Which Martin model is the least expensive with a solid body? I'm assuming that HPL is their version of presswood... I'm thought it might be the D-15, but I'm not sure.

    Studiomaster consoles...anyone know anything about them?

    Looking for a medium priced 8 bus board...saw a ton of Mackie 24-8's and 32-8's, and a couple of these Studiomasters. Seemed to be priced comparable to the Mackies, maybe set up more like an AH or a Soundcraft. Supposedly have a "British" sound, whatever that means. Anyone have any experience...

    Anyone used a V69 w/ a Sytek?

    I'm picking up an MPX 4 as my main mic preamp. I was wondering if anyone had used either a V69 or an AT4040 with the Sytek and what their opinions were... Thanks.

    Thanks to all...

    ...who provided feedback on the tracks I posted over the last six months or so. The band I've been recording (Minus Six) for the last 9 months has gotten their CD back from the printer, and the release party is tonight. I posted several tracks off the CD for advice and critique, and many of you...

    Crisis!!!!!!

    I'm using Vegas, SF, and Acid... Here's my crisis...apparently, my studio computer took a power hit, or lightning, or got whacked by an Internet worm, or something. My operating system (Win 98SE) will not start normally. I have tried repeatedly to reload the OS with no success. I can boot the...

    Mastering/volume equalization question

    Here's my deal... A 17 track CD that I'm done tracking and mixing. Now I'm trying to do some basic mastering myself. Biggest issue I'm running into right now is getting all 17 tracks to play at or near the same volume. I used Vegas to mix and track, and Sound forge to edit. I'm going to use...

    ANother mix for critique!

    Another mix for critique! Another tune from a band recording a CD in my studio. I've used a lot of the suggestions I got on the mix I posted of a different tune last month...hopefully this one will be relatively "tweak-free" at this point...but if I REALLY believed that, I wouldn't be posting...

    Did anyone else bid in the MP3.com auction?

    They had 4 Avalon 737's, 3 U87ai's, and couple of 414's, and several 58's and 57's. A bunch of boards and external processors. The Avalons went for about $1700-$1800 each, the U87's for about $1400-$1500 each. No real bargains....

    What's left to do to this one?

    Submitted for your approval... Is this one ready to put on the CD? I think so, but I'll defer to the more experienced ears on this forum. Feel free to make suggestions about the mix. I want to think that we're done tracking on this one, but if anyone hears anything goofy, let me know. More sax...

    A new one!

    A couple of months ago I posted a tune called "Dennys" by a band that was in my studio at the time. We've been recording ever since then, and they want to do a full-length CD. I've got several songs (in MY mind) ready to go, but want some feedback on the mixes. This one's called "Tell Me"...let...

    I'll try one...

    Tis is a REAL rough mix of a song I tracked today. The vocals are scratch, and we're going to work on it again next weekend. I'm not happy with the sound of the electronic drums, but I'm not sure what to do with them...I'm open to ideas. Feel free to give advice, criticism, or kudos to the...

    Has anyone used a Mackie SR24.4 in the studio?

    I know, I know...it's a live sound board. But I found one on fleaBay for $475 (Buy It Now), and it was too cheap to pass up. SO....since I was looking to upgrade the fine Peavey board that's currently humming away (literally) in my studio, I figured I couldn't go wrong. Has anyone used one of...

    Need quick help!

    Anyone know the difference between the Behringer MX3282 and the MX3282A? I won't be using the mic pres, so I'm looking VERY closely at one of these boards as the "patch bay" into my Seasound Solo. I need a board that won't generate a ton of self-noise when using the 1/4" inputs, and I'll be...

    Oktava shock mounts

    I bought a set of 012's from GC about a year ago, and noticed that the clips don't thread onto the ends of my mic stands very well (They seem to be just a smidge too big for the stands). About two weeks ago, I bought the Octava shock mounts for the 012's, thinking that I had a bad clip...

    TG55 sysex file conversion

    I'm stumped. I've got a Yamaha TG55, and I bought some patches from Soundengine.com that came as sysex files. I downloaded Dumpster to handle the sysex dump to the TG55. The files SEEMED to transfer OK...but how do I access them once they're in the TG55? The manual is useless when it comes to...

    Technical help needed!

    I'm confused. I've got a Yamaha B200 (It's a YS200 with speakers...). I'm not thrilled with the factory presets, and have downloaded multiple editor programs (specifically, a Yamaha 4-op editor/librarian from Blue Bear Software, as well as a demo version of Bitheadz software) with additional...

    Question for brzilian

    You've been very helpful in my (ongoing) search for keyboards, so, I thought I'd throw one more question out there... Yamaha TG-55 module for realistic pianos, stings, voices, horns (using the B-200/YS-200 as a controller). Yes, no, maybe, or NFW? $79...if that influences your opinion...:D...

    DX-7 voice ROM question

    Wil the DX-7 voice ROM's work with a B-200/YS-200? I've got an MCD32 enroute for the B200, but I'd like to get some more preprogrammed voices, and most of the stuff I can find on eBay is listed as DX7 ROM's...are the readers the same?
