I just got an HD24 and want to transfer a three song project. First song was fine because the clock counters read the same. How do you transfer a song to an HD24 "song" when the tape counter does not start at 0? I kept getting an out of range message and couldn't get the record to engage on...

The acrylic piece is pretty light. The whole assembly is easily balanced by the counterweight. I got the studio boom at guitar center. They price matched one I found online. Yep, those are ksm109's. I like them pretty well. I had to return one of the first ones I got because the connector...

This is my new overhead rig. I work in an acrylics shop and made the crossbar on our laser. Maybe I could sell a few :)

I followed the procedure everyone describes online. Lint free cloth, 99% alcohol (91% was the best I could find), very light pressure, turn rotary head counter clockwise. There was quite a bit of dirt on the cloth. Didn't help the error though. I tried several tapes including a new one. I...

Well, it happened. I fired up the XT for the first time in a while. At first, everything was great. Then the intermittent Error 07 flash. Then full on Error 07 meltdown. When I first press play, the counter starts rolling but the error immediately pops up. The tracks might play for a while...

They had a digital Sony reel-to-reel deck at Middle Tennessee State University back in the early 90's. Don't know how much use it got.

I didn't realize that Pink Floyd's "Final Cut" was holophonic. I knew there was some interesting stereo stuff going on there but I had never listened with headphones until last night. Too bad "Animals" wasn't holophonic.

I remember two ways of creating 3 dimensional sound that I learned in my college audio class. One involved electronically manipulating the phase of a sound split into stereo separation. The other involved capturing the changes in phase caused by the human head and ears as a sound enters each...

I think that most of the issues you point out is performance related. The bass was run direct and played with fingers so that caused a flappy sound during the intro. I think the snare noise at the beginning of the softer part is actually light stick hits. The drums were isolated when they...

Ok, I brought a new band into the studio last weekend and I have listened to the scratch mix to the point that it has tainted my ability to hear what this needs. This is my latest attempt at a mix. What do you guys think it needs? Thanks in advance:)...

Thanks!!!!

I actually have the older version but I think the differences are mainly cosmetic. After taking a closer look at the rear of the board, I think I have a better understanding. I didn't realize that the inserts were TRS. I just saw a bunch of jumpers and thought it had a basic insert/return...

I just picked up a Soundtracs Topaz-24 console and had a quick question before making my connections. Does the tape out on each channel only pass thru the mic pres? Just wanted to make sure it was designed to connect the way I think it was: with the tape returns from the recorder connected to...

I made a bit of an impulse purchase last night and picked up a low hours ADAT XT to add to the blackface I have had for nearly 10 years (at a tenth of the price I paid for the blackface way back when, I might add) Is there anything I should know about the XT other than the fact that it uses RCA...

Thanks. I agree with the drums. I am stuck with the drum mix because I only have 8 tracks to work with and mixed the drums to 2 tracks to make room for everything else. The snare is a piccolo so there wasn't much body to the sound. The kick is there, the striker hit is just a bit buried. I...

Hi everyone. This is a studio track I have been working on. I posted a live to 2-track song a few weeks ago of this band. This is one of their down tempo songs. Tell me what you think. Thanks in advance:) http://www.soundclick.com/util/getplayer.m3u?id=4537950&q=hi

Thanks for the input guys. I will post some multi-track stuff when I am finished mixing:)

New guy here. I have been lurking for quite a while but this is my first post. I graduated from Middle Tennessee State University 10 years ago with a B.S. in Recording Industry Management and promptly entered an unrelated field of work. I recently decided to dust off my recording equipment...
