I'm wondering if anyone has any experience with the Audix ADX40 hanging choir mic (and others for comparison). I can find next to no reviews anywhere on it. I tried one recently and it seems pretty good, but it needs a lot of gain - the specs seem to agree with super low sensitivity of 5dB/pa...
In case it's useful to anyone, I was just hunting for a cheap dual mic preamp to expand a Mackie mixer and an interface with limited mic pre's and stumbled upon the Alesis MicTube Duo. Also then found Alesis is selling them for just $50. Looks like they've discontinued them and are clearing them...
Pardon the live sound question in a recording forum, but it seems like there's a fair amount of live sound experience here.
Does anyone have a suggestion for mic'ing an upright bass in a small combo in an acoustically challenging room? The room is a large rotunda in an art museum, i.e. boomy...

I've got a strange noise problem that I've never encountered before. One particular patch cable (1/4" TS) when connected to one pedal, a TC Electronic Vintage Bass Distortion, generates a loud buzz/humming noise. The same cable does not do this connected to anything else. Likewise, the pedal is...
I recently made some fret levelers and a notched ruler for checking fretted neck straightness/relief.
After reading the Aug 2006 Bass Player Magazine article on fret leveling, (Good article: http://www.bassplayer.com/article/leveling-frets/jul-06/22006) where Dan Erlewine suggests using a...
I recently upgraded from Sonar 4 to 7. Everything went smoothly except that a week or so later I found that my saved plugin presets had been erased. I'd built up a collection over several years that served as quick settings, or at least good starting points. Fortunately I was able to find a...
Does anyone know what the two trim pots inside the Aphex Punch Factory pedal do? They are VR1 & 2. I found them while trying to clean the switches and pots. They are pretty well buried inside, so I decided they may not be intended for user tweaking, rather for calibration. The pedal uses a photo...
Does anyone have any experience with a Soundcraft Spirit Folio 4 console? I'm specifically wondering about warmth or preamps (I hear good things in general about Soundcraft), overall noise, and reliability.
I've been close to getting a Mackie 1202 for practicality (like that Alt 3/4 buss), but...
Has anyone had a problem with the Presonus TubePre's output (XLR) being too high? I use it regularly on two different Allen & Heath boards (don't know the models) and the output is very high with my bass and prohibitively high for my guitar. In both cases, the board op's say they're using the...
