Had the ART PRO MPA for a short while - I was disappointed.

I wish RODE could marked some ribbon mics.... Ola

You`re right ametth, there it was in front of my eyes - thank you very much! I`ll try to change capacitors in the signal path with polypropylene ones of the same value and replace the transformer to begin with and see how it works. I won`t touch the power supply capacitors, but parallel...

Pat`s Tube Schematics (see link above) also sell Royer`s modification papers for Marshall mics. You can probably get them as E-mail attachment. He writes: `U-47 mic conversion information.. turn those inexpensive Marshall mics into a decent tube condenser...!` Ola

If you are willing to try some modification, you may get som inspiration from Pat`s Tube Schematics web-site: http://nanaimo.ark.com/~pat/record.htm He writes: My MAIN referance mics are a pair of CLASSIC TWO, which have the wonderfull remote pattern switching, which gives possibilities that...

I havn`t tried this, but what about using two ECM8000 (omnis) and a Jecklin disc three feet or so above the snare. You will need a good sounding room. My guess is that you can eq the high frequencies coming from the symbals by the way you angle this rigg. Well, what do you think? Ola

Contact H.E.A.R. http://www.hearrecords.com/shopsite_sc/store/html/er20.html They have: `ER 20 hifi plugs (pair) $20.00 $15 On Sale! These ready-fit earplugs provide 12 dB protection with a flat, hi fidelity sound No custom mold needed.` Ola

Regarding building a tube mic pre, I would probably have tried: http://www.tangible-technology.com/tubes/altec.html FREE SCHEMATICS can also be found here: http://nanaimo.ark.com/~pat/ 1. THE FABULOUS... TUBE HI FI PRE-AMP!!!! - a line level amp. 2. MAKE YOUR OWN....BALANCED MIC PREAMP! 3. MAKE...

I made interconnect cabels for my stereo/hi-fi-system. Improvments in audio quality from every signal source: Vinyl record player, CD-player etc. Much smoother and open sound - not something you will experience everytime you try to invest in new cables. The idea behind these cables has its...

...or make your own cables: http://www.svalander.se/tips2.htm (a link to Svalander, another Swede.) I have tried tried both and like the ones that I made myself (see Svalander) Ola Norway

MXL V63M mic?? Not to be seen on Marshall`s web-site. Ola

imacgreg - please, tell us more about your 1272 project.

Sorry, I meant to write George Massenburg.

Well, look in George Massengurg`s forum on The EQ mag. site: http://www.musicplayer.com/ubb/ultimatebb.php?ubb=get_topic&f=3&t=002175

Just read in another forum about a guy who`s peavey vmp-2 mic pre caught fire...no, it didn`t warm up the sound. I have never heard the Peavy mic pre, but many like the sound. You get some tone regulation included. Ola

The V67 has a transformer at the output - the V93m is transformerless. Ola

My guess is that the Marshall MXL 2003 could be fine on kick drum - I mean if you would like to try the two microphone techniqe with a dynamic mic inside the bass drum and a con- denser outside/in front of the drum. The 2003 mic has a preattenuation Switch: 0/-10dB and could be fine for this...

Thank you, monty teebaum, for giving me the opportunity to hear MXL 603 that I plan to buy several of in the near future. It seems to perform just OK. Fine if it`s a bit rounded in the top - just what I want. Many modern condensers sound too bright to my ears. I have three V67G that I like a...

I bought three V67Gs in spring this year, Harvey, based on your comments, in your forum that you had on your web site, about the V67`s sonics - I have never regretted my purchase. Based on what you say now, Harvey, I don`t think I`ll need a tube based mic for the time being. I think I`ll buy me...

Interesting reading about mic choice here: http://www.discmakers.com/music/pse/mic3.html "Mitch Easter's production and engineering credits include work with R.E.M., Suzanne Vega, Pavement, and The Hang Ups. What affordable microphone do you prefer? Actually, there are two I use every...
