Eddie -I wrote a fir bit of info regarding analog tape recorders, consoles etc for the SAE - (BTW- I don't work for them) You 'll find it at their site here. http://www.saecollege.de/reference_material/index.html cheers john

The boomyness is the proximity effect of the mike. Either use the bass roll off on the mike (That's what it's there for) or roll off the extreme low end in cool edit. I agree with shep about angling away from the right hand but that close you are going to get proximity effect. Also, have...

try reversing the eq of the sm57. A SM57 has a peak at around 6khz and rolls off below 100hz. (Why they are good stage mikes) So try dipping at 6khz and low shelf boost at 100hz. cheers John

That's called methylated spirits. DON'T use it - the blue dye leaves a residue - only use isopropyl alcohol. You can get it from the guy that makes up your medical prescriptions at the drug store. - they use it. cheers John

Love the riff rats - I feel it's a shame betty didn't send you the dry version as you've had to verb it all out to match her so you both dissappear into a wall of verb. Mix sounds fine apart from that ;) cheers john

It's raining here too Fitz. has been for a week now - we haven't flooded yet but could if it keeps up :) BTW I mixed "the Real Thing" - an aussie classic from the 60s in a control room 10 x 10. :D cheers john

I agree with steve about the 75 ohm standard video cable - may be run three lines in case you are required to run separate RGB cables. cheers john

I doubt it as the mackie 8 buss is built on one dirty big motherboard. (which is why they are cheap) :) cheers john

It helps if you can put the harmonies in another space to the vocal - I don't mean panning space here - I mean time space. I often add a harmonised (pitchshifted) short delay to harmony vox. i.e. one delay harmonised up .008cents - the other side down .008 cents. my .002 cents cheers john

I've used cork as a wall treatment - it was in sheets 1", 2" and 3" thick. Bit thicker than your app. I've also used it on the floor in a control room - works really well in that app as things don't break when dropped and it outwears most other stuff. cheers john

Good in that it can handle the spl good in that it has a tight pattern - keeps other sounds out. good in that it has a slight high end lift built in only problem is the rolloff in the low end but that can be compensated for. cheers JOhn

Ric - I assume ausrock has the green jumping ants that sting like hell - whoa! when there's 10 on your leg you fucking know about it!! cheers john

Wow - beautiful view Steve :) I'm sitting here with just a sarong cos it's 90 degrees ;) The weather's weird here too mate. Inland NSW which is normally 90+ is 60 today! - severe storms just went through south of me - could be a cyclone year - we are due for one. cheers john

No Warren - you don't need to stagger the walls. You only do that when both sides of a wall has drywall. Peter has established that the fault is the phone line so we now wait for Telstra to fix the line. Should be back next week sometime I assume. cheers john

Is this it Jeff?? cheers john

as an atlternative to Rick's talcum powder you could use graphite. cheers john

at your age you are still living at home??? :rolleyes: now that's ghetto ;) cheers john

by comparison the 3 similar units at left bank cost around AUD$12,000 or US$8,000 cheers john
