    Somewhat off-topic: Vegas Video

    I realize this isn't about home recording, but am I the only one that finds Vegas Video to be an extremely underrated product? Everyone seems to latch on to Premiere and AVID, but I prefer Vegas to both of them... Just wanted to vent.

    Nady Starpower 1

    Am I the only one absolutely amazed by the quality of this mic, especially considering it only costs $10. Then again, it's the first mic I've ever bought, so if I ever end up moving up to something better I'll probably be changing my tune.

    Any one Porta 02 for sale?

    I'm looking for a replacement multitrack for mine that recently bit the dust and I'm quite fond of the Porta 02. Does anyone have a used one they wouldn't mind parting with for about $50?

    Fostex X-12 vs. X-14

    Hey, I have a question about the X-12 over the X-14. I read that the X-12 has a larger flywheel. How much of a difference does that make in the recorder?

    Fostex X-14

    I may be able to get one of these for $50. Is it worth it? Any notes on sound quality or performance? Also, I plan on using a 4-track that needs a new tape drive as a mixer for it... just thought I'd mention.

    Nady Starpower 1

    I'm going to be getting a 4-track pretty soon and I was wondering whether the Nady Starpower 1 (which is only $9.99 in Musicians Friend) is a decent choice for starting out on recording. Adding in a cable, stand, and XLR to 1/4" stereo converter is going to cost a lot, especially since I'm a 15...
