thanks for the quick reply. i was thinking that might be the way i had to go. after reading through this thread and doing some additional research i was considering going the route of a matched pair of MXL603s, and then i was thinking the MXL V67G for vocals. i might actually be able to spend...

harvey, amazing thread, i know its years after it started but ive read through it more than once and it is an unbelievable wealth of information. my question is one that might be stupid, but im just hoping i can get some recommendations. i need a couple of mics for my home studio. i need a...

not if you turn your pack all the way up! our drummer has his pack usually on 9 almost every night, it is absolutely ridiculous, while i have mine barely past 3.5. i see advantages of wedges and in ears, but we also have a dedicated monitor engineer so for us ears are much easier. personally...

i have the original mbox, but ive been using an 002 lately that isnt mine. just moved into a new house and ready to set up a halfway respectable home studio (sans drum room). buying a new macpro as soon as they announce the new revision most likely. i also have a pair of genelec 1030a monitors...

yeah, that makes sense, thanks for the input.

this is exactly my concern. id rather have 4 higher quality pres than 8 of lesser quality.

i would think the same thing, but then why would the specs be identical on the 003 and 003 rack but different on the rack+? it just doesnt make sense.

ive had a lot of experience traveling with equipment, and ive never had a single issue. nothing ever stolen or turned away at security. not to say its not possible, but in the end i think something like a watch would get stolen from checked luggage faster than some obscure audio equipment that...

hi all, a question regarding the preamps in the 003 rack+. ive read that the preamps in the 003 are a big improvement over the 002, and im wondering if the 8 pres in the new 003 rack+ are identical to the ones in the regular 003. on the digidesign site the specs on the 4 pres of the 003 and the...

first off, i definitely searched the forums first before i started the thread, just so you all know, and didnt really find an answer. my question is about stands for studio monitors that would go on top of a desk, not separate stands that would go next to or behind one. i am looking for stands...

nothing like a totally elitist, non-useful answer. thanks!

so if you arent supposed to have the monitors angled up towards you from the bottom, why are mopads suggested for use flat, angled down, or angled up?

i read the information on ethans test cd page afterwards and it helped me. i see now that the questions have been answered, its just that at the time i didnt realize that you were just listening to tones, and writing down the level at each tone. i have heard about analyzing software, etc...i...

ok...its just that in the research i have done, and actually also in the manual for my monitors (genelec 1030A), i was informed that you are supposed to have the tweeters pointed at your ears in the horizontal and vertical plane, so theoretically the actual height of the monitors wouldnt matter...

i was under the impression that it is ideal for the tweeters to be pointing straight into your ears. is that wrong?

i just finally got most of the acoustic treatment in my room set up, and everything positioned correctly, etc...so now i want to calibrate my monitors and sub, and check the frequency response, etc...like you guys are talking about here. i am going to get a radio shack spl meter, but when what...

this is something ive been wondering about. ive read about positioning the monitors different distances from the wall, and how there will be cancellation at certain low frequencies because of reflections off of the wall right behind the monitors, so the "best thing to do" if you cant mount the...

of course. if its mostly the nasty echos you are noticing, the hi/mid traps will be what you want. however, you should also do some bass trapping because most rooms out there can benefit from it. even if you havent noticed anything yet, im sure there are plenty of low frequency peaks and dips...

dont be silly! this is exactly what i wanted, a lot of different ideas and discussion about this. thanks for asking a bunch of questions i would have asked :)

ive seen a few suggestions in random threads on the board, but it would be cool if people could post ideas/suggestions here, so as to have one place to look to see the different ways people have done it. im looking for ideas all around, but a big question is how to go about hanging panels of...
