We moved!
Into a new house.
Its... bitter sweet.
Of course the "studio" was sold with the old house.
But.....
I get to live here now! :)

in the Austin area.
I will not ship. You must pick-up.
It looks like we're going to be moving in about 3 weeks!
So, I have a lot of RockWool, that I'd rather not cart around.
If you want some, and you can pick it up, its yours.
For electric guitar.
I want to use it exclusively for recording in the studio.
I don't need (or want for that matter) a huge stack for live gigging.
I want something that'll give a classic rock sound.
I want something small for miking up.
I don't need (or want for that matter) crunchy...
I need some serious help here. :p
I have to record some training calls that take place on the telephone.
I know I need an interface to do this, and these are the ones I'm looking into:

This thing is just sitting around collecting dust.
Pretty nice little Drum Machine.
You can use Vdrums to trigger it, or a MIDI controlled Keyboard.
Make Offer.
Well, I sort of took a hiatus from the studio during June, July, and August.
Anyone that lives in central Texas would understand this.
So, with the cooler weather, I've resumed building these past few weeks.
I have one thing left to do, and I can start sheetrockin'!
I need to run a 3/8" copper...
I have 16 mic and 4 - 1/4" leads in my Live room, 12 mic and 4 - 1/4" leads in my Drum room, and 4 mic and 2 - 1/4" leads in my vocal booth.
How should I label these?
I was thinking of something like:
LR MIC 1
LR MIC 2...
LR PH 1
LR PH 2...
DR MIC 1
DR MIC 2...
You get the idea.
Is that...
My mom and dad live in a small community southwest of Austin, called Wimberly, Texas.
It has a local newspaper, and there on the front page was a story about the legendary Mr. Neve!
He lives there now, runs a small company that seems to do electronics research.
Pretty cool!
I think I just got one hell of a deal!
I won this Otari MTR10 at auction for $227.00
Now, I have to pay for shipping from New Mexico, but even if that's $400, it still seems like a great deal.
I've seen these go for $1800.00 and up.
What do you guys think?
I need to wire in some cables for the rear surround monitors in my studio.
These monitors are passive Event 20/20's. I'll be using a Hafler 1500 series amp to drive them.
The cables I use now (monster) are too short, so I'll need to get or make some new ones.
From the monitors to the amp is...
My 7 year old has decided he wants to play electric guitar. :rolleyes: :D :D
He sees me fooling around with my hollow body and has decided, yep, that's for him!
But he's really too small to play a full sized guitar. His hands aren't big enough to fret the neck, and his arms are too short...
A friend of mine, Fred Remert, owner of Cedar Creek Recording told me about a new microphone manufacturer, John Peluso of Peluso Microphone Labs.
John is making astonishing copies of some pretty famous mikes, for not a whole lot of money. And they're all hand-built, right here in the USA. (Not...
I got all of my wall plates finished, and I tested them for continuity with a meter, but I still wanted to run some audio through them before I install them permenantly.
So I brought them into the studio, hooked 'em up and recorded through them.
They all work fine.
I miked up the piano, and...
