I am launching a new site, dedicated to mix offs, for fun and education. I am looking for feedback, as well as inviting anyone with some tracks they'd like to share to come on over and help get things rolling. I've started a couple of mixoff threads, but this is a brand new site, so any help...

This is a project I recorded back in November. The room was a typical practice space, with high currugated metal roof, cement block walls, about 15' x 30' or so. One of the guitars is a pod, the bass is mostly a DI, vocals were recorded with MXL V63m, through an ACMP84. I used the ACMP84s on...

I just posted a new article on my site about Character in recordings: http://suitcaserecordings.com/character-in-recordings.html I'd be curious to hear others' opinions on the issue. Do you try to create technically perfect, acoustically neutral recordings? Or do you make recordings that try...

I was recently reading 'How we Decide' by Jonah Leher, in which he makes the case that complex decisions (ones with more than say 4 variables) are best made by going with our gut. I was thinking about this in regard to recording. Often, when I am recording a band, I don't try multiple set-ups...

I recently wrote a little ebook about selling on iTunes, and why it's not so great. And more importantly, a better way! Feel free to subscribe to my list for the ebook, then unsubscribe if you'd rather not receive my newsletter: http://suitcaserecordings.com/whysellingonitun.html

Just updated the site a bit, appreciate any feedback, comments, critiques: http://suitcaserecordings.com Thanks!

I wrote this the other day: http://www.squidoo.com/Record_a_Kick_Drum Feel free to check it out, let me know if there's anything I should add (not that I could ever cover everything!)

I put this little page together for comparison shopping, I'm thinking of buying a Vibrolux, if the price is right... Check it out, I used affiliate links, so I'll make a (small) commission if you buy one ;-) FenderReverb.com Kinda silly, but you know how it is when you're home with the...

I've got a Mackie 800r that I've been using for about a year. It's been racked up, is in pristine condition. I'm asking $750, includes shipping in the Continental USA. I'll include a D-sub cable, so you can hook it to a mixer, etc. Unit is in Phoenix, AZ, I take Paypal, have great eBay...

This is a really nice little mixer, unique in that it has 4 Group outs, 6 aux sends, and the stereo buss. The eq sounds good, the preamps are clean and quiet, typical Yamaha quality. 12 mono inputs with preamps, 2 stereo line inputs. The board is a few years old, I used it as the front end to my...

This is a great mic, but I have a whole locker full of LDCs, and I've got my eye on some other outboard ;-) Asking $350, this sells at Sweetwater for $629. I've used it a couple of times, but it's still in the box. I'll pay shipping in the USA.

I recently upgraded to a larger snake, so I have this one for sale. It has an XLR fantail on one end, a steel stage box on the other. Perfect for use with any of the 8 channel firewire interfaces, 828, firepod, etc. I used it for tracking drums, primarily. Asking $50, $10 for shipping in the US.

Just got one of these little dealies today, pretty damn cool. Seems to work very well, it's a little limited (not a chromatic tuner), but for $15, it's very cool! http://www.planetwavestuners.com/index.php?option=com_tuner&task=tunerdetailpage&id=1

In the past, I've done some mixing for home recordists, but I'm feeling that this is a service I'd like to offer to more people. I'm trying to develop my 'pitch,' as it were, and so I'm hoping to get some feedback here. I'm not trying to get business from you all (yet!), but I'm hoping you...

I recently upgraded to the new(er) 828MKII, so I'm selling the old reliable MKI. It works great, sounds good, I used it with my Soundcraft board, and used the ADAT input for my Mackie Onyx 800r. It's a very solid unit, never had it hang or crash. You can download the current drivers, etc. at...

This mic is in pristine condition, comes with the spider mount, and a hard case. Great sounding mic, but just a little out of my price range (wife's pregnant!) This is a great deal, I'm asking only $1500, shipped in the USA. PM me with your email for pictures. Thanks!

I used this on drums sometimes, bass sometimes, even vocals on occasion. Works fine, sounds as good as it can for the price. I'm movin' on up, to a delux compressor in the sky... Well, anyway, it's yours for $75, shipped in the USA. (I also have a Groove Tubes Glory Comp, if you want something...

This is a Yamaha mixer, with 8 mic pre's and two stereo inputs. It has digital effects, and would be a good front end to a small DAW setup (allowing submixes, headphone mixes, etc.) I'm asking $225, shipped in the USA. It's pretty straightforward, Yamaha has since replaced these with the MG...

I've recently ugraded to some new A/D, so I'm selling my old units: The Behringer ADA-8000 is $150, shipped in the USA The MOTU 828 MKI is $225, shipped in the USA. I'm in Phoenix, AZ, FYI. I'll consider interesting trades, as well!
