First off I decided to use TASCAM TSR-8 as the center of my home studio w/ an Oram T8 mixer. In a few test tracks I did in the last week I've noticed that I need to clean the heads almost every session or else I start losing signals in the tracks. I record hot but then the signal is low on...

First off I've made a test recording using some high end pre/compressors out of my 500 series lunchbox with some good mics etc and I'm pretty impressed with what this baby can do. I think the multitrack cassette format gets bad wrap because of the internal preamps of many TASCAM machines and...

My beloved Blue Blueberry mic is starting to crap out. Without anyone singing into it it sounds like there's a constant wind noise and theres a momentary cutting out of sound as well.* I went through two different pres so the problem is isolated to the mic.* It's been a rough week.

I've noticed in my low ceiling recording space that i've been getting a sweeter drum sound when using the Pro-Mark Hot Rod Sticks as opposed to standard wooden drum sticks. I'm getting a nice crack and resonance and no obnoxious overtones and I can record later at night without annoying my...

I plan on using a TASCAM TSR-8 only to record drums because i feel drums just sound so much sweeter when recorded to tape. I am using an Oram T8 mixer to run the mics for the drums. I then want to import the tracks into pro tools using an Apogee Rosetta 800 into a Macbook Pro. I want to record...

I have been using a Digi002 Rack with PT 8 LE in the past and I am getting my rig up and running after a long while. I think Ive read that I do not need a Digidesign interface to run Pro Tools any longer. Is this true? I would like to run my Apogee Rosetta 800 with something else maybe of...

I plan on using a digi002R and an Apogee Rosetta 800 (already have both) for my interface with Pro Tools version probably no higher than 8. I dont plan on going 'plugin crazy' but just basic stuff. Maybe a guitar amp simulator and a synth emulation here and there but nothing too major. I would...

Considering getting an iPad 2 for recording. Have questions... First off I'm big into analog. It's almost like a religion to me lol but I was messing with gigdady on my iPhone 4 and was pretty impressed with the results using the built in mic no less. If I get the iPad 2 I plan on getting the...

Does anyone know the small diaphragm condenser mic in this vid? Is there any info out there of the signal chain being used? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NnzIrRykilA&feature=player_embedded Sorry I cant get the youtube video to work inside this thread.

'Goodnight Josephine' This is my first all analog from TSR-8 to 22-2 half track project. i know theres some flubs in there. i recorded this all analog and kept some of the mistakes. i am trying to set up a set of monitors and i want to see how off they are. the mix through my car stereo...

'Goodnight Josephine' i know theres some flubs in there. i recorded this all analog and kept some of the mistakes rather than edit too much. i am trying to set up a set of monitors and i want to see how off they are. the mix through my car stereo sounds a bit bassy but i kind of like it but i...

I just hooked up my 22-2 to my Apogee converter and then into my pro tools le rig only to find that my onscreen input levels were very low. Im only getting about 30% on the onscreen VU meter with the 22-2 output knob in the center. When I turn the output on the 22-2 all the way up I start to get...

http://www.audiotecusa.com/acoustic_panels.php I purchased 32 (24x24x1) of these panels to cover 130 sq feet of ceiling in a 400 sq ft basement recording space. i plan on only tracking underneath the treated area. its a white ceiling and i got all white panels that i plan on checkerboarding...

i have a pretty nice basement analog studio setup (Tascam TSR-8, LA 610 preamps, BLUE Blueberry mic..etc) but my vocal and acoustic guitar (especially) recording seem subpar. the room is about 400 sq feet with 6 ft 8 inch ceilings. tiled floors with a big rug in the center. i have a bar in one...

only after about 20 or so tracking passes channel 8 gets real low and dull. i clean the heads (w/ 90% rubbing alcohol) and it goes back to sounding good again. the cotton swab seems pretty dirty like its been much longer since ive cleaned the heads. the others might be getting affected too but...

rather than recording to a R to R? What i mean - i know a R2R will most likely have much better fidelity but is there a desirable quality a cassette can offer that a R2R cant? I have a TSR-8 and there is a tascam 238 being sold locally for $125 and Im thinking about picking it up and using it...
