Hey there! I need to convert a high level xlr line level to a low level rca input on my inspire. Does anyone know the cheapest way to do that? Can an XLR to RCA cable with a resistor inline do the job? I know there are the active line converters, but that's overkill for this task. Can't it be...

Hi. I accidentally had the MS button on my Octane when I recorded a band. I never have done any MS teqniques before. One channel was a bass direct, and the other was a sax mic. The width was all the way up. One of the channels also had the phase button in. When I flip the phase on one of the...

Yeah, TONS of people play banjo in the Office! Right after they're done with their TPS reports. Today's stupid deal of the day Great sound and fine feel for banjoists on a budget! 18 brackets; high-quality, vintage-style head; open back; satin finish; and first-rate string tuning machines...

Hey. This amp runs pretty quiet. One of the 2 power sections isn't running, it seems. I can take it's tube out, and it's the same volume. It's not the tube, it's the socket, and it's corresponding power section. I poked around a good bit, and did a few obvious continuity tests, but can't seem to...

Disclaimer: I work for them! But I'm a regular on this site, and I hope this isn't considered spam. This at least seems like the proper category. We're actually a post-production studio Near Rockefeller Center, but my boss got this idea for this website. It's sort of like a cross between...

Hey. I have an Aphex 107 that I really like (with an Amperex 12ax7), but it doesn't play nice with my snake and other preamps, having the inputs on the front, and all. Was thinking of trading it out for something similar. The 207 has the ins on the back, so that might be good, but does anyone...

My roomies hooked a lightbulb in series between a guitar amp and the speaker. It definitely acted as a compressor. And the light gets brighter the louder the signal, and the more extreme the compression. I didn't get too into it, but it did sound pretty cool. Anyone have any experience with this?

And didn't he kill himself and his landlady on the anniversary of Buddy Holly's death? So who, why, and how did this company come about using his name? I mean I understand his contributions to music and engineering. I just don't understand how this company came about. He's been dead almost 40...

Just wondered if anyone had any idea about how nice this mic is. Particularly for drum overheads.

Crazy! Anyone ever play one of these? Any thoughts? Musicians Friend

I've seen premium IEC power cables from like 60 bucks to over a thousand! Magic power seems to have cheap ones, and cardas more in the 200 dollar range. Does anyone have any experience with these? Could one improve the quality of a tube mics power supply, or a preamp or interface? I thought it...

I did all kinds of mods on this. And like the tool I am, I didn't test after every mod. Just went and did them all at once. So now I don't know what's wrong with it! I turned it on, let it warm up, and no signal! Opened it up, and the tube was warm like it's supposed to be. I changed the tube...

Somehow, very mysteriously, it seems both my 603s' got their diaphragms busted. They were just sitting up on their shockmount/t bar over the drum set with a sandbag on the base. My roommate's always whining about why I don't just leave everything set up so we can record whenever. Well I did, and...

Hey, this mic comes in cardboard box. At least the Nady. I've moded the hell out of it, and now I'm looking for a hard shell case for it to complete the package. Anyone know of one that would fit? Inside the box there is a nice cut out foam block that has compartments for the power supply, the...

Hey, just wondered if anyone knew a difference between these two mics? The specs seem identical, the 1150 just has a longer body. Does anyone know of any other differences? Thanks!

Hey, does anyone know anyone know if any of these are any good? The new ART X-Direct and Z-Direct. Or the Whirlwind edb-1? Thanks!

Hi. I need a little help in figuring out how the modules are supposed to be changed to change the modes on these. I'm pretty sure I want mode 5, half-normal. But the instructions and the diagrams don't really specify how the modules are supposed to be oriented for the different modes. They just...

So I've been thinking of making a plate reverb. http://www.prosoundweb.com/recording/tapeop/plate/plate.php The company that sells the parts and kits seems to have disapeared. I can't seem to find one of the drivers they described, but I thought this thing might work...

Got a few Ideas for some preamp mods you might fiind interesting and useful. Just something I had swishing around in my head for a while, thought I might mount a second tube socket in some of my preamps with a switch to switch the tube used without having to actually pull it out and replace...
