    Mixing - stepping out of the box

    Total green horn here but have a good ear and am a fast learner. Just starting home recording a few months back and am obsessed with soaking up as much information as possible. Where I'm at currently: Digi002, top of the line mics, TG2 pre, and a La-610 pre/comp. So far I'm finding the comp...

    Shootout: TG2 vs. La-610 vs. Digi002

    A friend of mine bought a Les Paul Standard and wanted to A/B it against my 1958 Historic Les Paul. Since I had him there I thought I'd get him to play throught the above mentioned pre's. LP standard-->Neumann TLM127 -->Marshall 1974x 18w -->preamp--> Pro Tools. The only problem was that he...

    TLM 127 side addressed?

    According to the literature the 127 is side addressed. What does that mean exactly? If you address it from the side it sounds weird...but if you address it from the front it seems the way to go. Am I misunderstanding somehting?

    Replaced a tlm 103 with a tlm 127 and...

    Well I sent back my tlm 103 cause it was scratched up (demo). They didn't have another one in stock so they gave me an awesome deal on the tlm127 they had in stock. They said it sounds just the same as the 103 but with more options. I said ok. Well I'm posting to tell you it DOES NOT sound just...

    -18db digital is 0db analog?? Please explain

    Was reading an artical by one of the guys in 9" Nails and this is what he says: 0db's in your analog equipment is atually -18db's in Protools. So when you run a line out from PT into one of your analog pre's you should reduce the PT trak to -18db's. alright, I understand what he's...

    D12e another problem

    Sorry for the million questions, but this studio building gets complicated :eek: I bought a AKG d12e and it sounds like your hitting a teaspoon against a tin pot. That is if you crank the gain...if you don't there's no sound at all. So the obvious troubleshoot is to turn on phantom power...

    Ok Dumb question about SP C4's

    I'm testing some SD mics against an el cheapo Apex SD to help me decide which way to go on my upgrade. Using the exact same mic technique on an acoustic (one bridge one neck in stereo about 1 ft away) the c4 came off real dead sounding in comparison. None of that crystal clean high's you get...
