In this Manual here On page 12, I don't understand the last two bypass modes. the 0% Mix makes sense, it's basically a pass though. But as far as the FX input and FX Output, I'm just not getting it. FX Input Shuts off the Engine Input in order to let the effect "ring out", but leaves the same...

I didn't know Def used it. I had both the half racks and that rockman in the 80s. That thing was pretty cool. I mean it had a big sound. Like others have said, it had a very distinct sound, and I struggled to really fall in love, but the clean sound was great. But I never tired to run it though...

My friend is doing a celebration of life which will be outside. As for the original topic: I'm looking for consistency in volume and tone. The speaker mentioned a shirt clip. Seems like the SM57 was used a lot for speeches to my surprise. But the president is not usually turning his head too...

@ Lazer That Beyer M58 is $200 used. The OP was targeting the $100 range. My friend will not drop 200. I would, he won't. @bouldersoundguy In my experience with one, the SM57 looses a lot of power if you're not on top of it. Although it would help if this guys PA was more powerful. Maybe that...

Interesting, I didn't know that about the podium using two 57s. I could do two, I have two. Those mics are the only thing good on the podium. Lets hope 2024 won't get stolen again.

Hello I have a friend who does speeches for churches. He has a small PA. I was going to give him one of my SM57s, but he wants to be able to move his head side to side sometimes and still be heard. Being that the 57 is a cardioid, do you think an SM58 would be better even though it's still an...

@ rob aylestone Ya, I don't go overboard on cables. I always thought that the whole point in an XLR was to cancel out noise. And I think any decent or even low end XLR can do that. But I seen a video of this guy testing poorly isolated cables. Some of them did pick up some low noise which could...

I hear you. I had my recording engineer friend tear out the amps of my Event ASP 6's years ago. I run the speakers though a crown 1002 Xti. This is my setup here, and here with the speakers. It's pretty small, but It's just me. For the mics being in the low price range they are, I've been blown...

Good stuff guys. I'm saving all this to my notes. @bouldersoundguy I think my TotalMix channels are set to +19, and then there is digital gain up to 12 more db, but my John Hardy M1 has a tone of gain so I don't even use their gain. I appreciate you taking a look at that manual. (y) @rob...

I said 0dBVU equates to -18dbfs. I'm talking about a voltage at 0dBVU would translate to -18 in a digital system. I'm not saying 0dBVU is locked to that reference. I care about actual voltages because I'm trying to understand it. it's difficult to tie all these references together, because I'm...

I actuality do understand what you explained in the first paragraph. A common level can be anything. I know 0dBVU is a reference only. A wrong word used, and things can go way out of wack with these kinds of topics, sorry about that. I meant to imply that if you supplied a voltage to bring a...

I thought 0dBu = -18 dBFS / +4dBu = 15dBFS, or something like that. But what you said makes sense. That explains why it takes so much gain to get my levels up. RME chose to leave out the +4 on the input side of their Fireface UCX II and go with +13 & +19 reference levels which expect even hotter...

The specs say: the Maximum Output Level At 990 Output 75 Ohm load +24 http://www.johnhardyco.com/M-1PersonalDetails.html But in you're first response to me, you're talking about +4 line level range operations. That's on my interface. I'm not asking about my Input/Output sensitivity...

Hello My question is in the paragraph below, but to better understand the question: I'll just say that, I have an RME UCX II . The RME has, (for the physical inputs/outputs) sensitivity/refrence level settings of: +13db and +19db on the input side +4db +13db and +19db on the output side...

Try to see if you have any transformers near wires, move wires around, try to hide the transformers behind something hard. If you have cheap wires with bad insulation you could be getting EMI. XLR cancellation will not prevent this. Good shielding on expensive wires helps. Do you have any...

I'm trying to google a concept I'm aware of, but I'm sure if I'm using the correct terminology in my searches. So I'm not finding much. What I'm waning to improve on is: when you record multiple instruments, (guitars, keyboards, vocals) and they go into your mix, trying to find where to cut or...

I've always wondered what this thing sounds like The two AD/DA converters in this thing are supose to produce the same secondary distortion hormontics that you get from old saturated analog tapes. For the price tag, it better.

There were a lot of great ideas mentioned here. A few things I might add For volume, assuming your software has it, I think you would have the most control of your levels with volume-automation, not the fader. Also, take advantage of punching in and out on the parts you don't like, or comp...

I'm really not. I was just trying to understand how the different settings in TotalMix effect logic's routing. You really can't avoid TotalMix, it's how everything is routed in the FireFace. Most of the time, I'm using bus sends and loading stereo plugs in an Aux channel in logic. I have it down...

You're music is great. Amazing guitar work in that Landslide tune
