    Bought a new console!

    He Guys, an update on a really really old thread! Bit I guess it is an interesting one.

    let me see your studio!

    Here you can see how my studio has grown over the past years. Funny thing is that 6 months after i bought my last console (the one in the 2005 pic) i decided to let the studio go private since i'm earning my money these days in broadcast sound.

    MIDI or Word clock?!?

    You are confused about terms regarding clock etc. wordclock is a method to 'sample-sync' digital connections. One machines cristal is used to trigger all the other digital equipment. This has nothing to do with timecode, or midi. It is just so that the (for example) 44.100 samples per second...

    Dont buy audio-technica phones

    my experience in running a pro studio is that AT is a company that deliveres a big bang for the buck. Actually, the '40' headphone is the only model that my studiomusicians weren't able to break within a couple of months.

    What do you think of this setup?

    Looks kinda ok to me. But just a question...did you decide for this setup based on personal taste of because it looks good on paper.. reason i'm asking is: if you're gonna buy, buy stuff YOU like. 5 good gadgets won't guarantee a good signal. Digidesign Digi 002 Rack with Pro Tools 7 Custom...

    Monitor Mistake

    ow, and very important...when in doubt..always ask a neutral person. Most of the engineers i know run away when they hear a mix of them played back on the air. Me too...you are used to hearing that mix over and over in the studio and that's a big difference once it's mastered and even more when...

    Monitor Mistake

    Reminds me of a tannoy 12 dtm story long ago...i bought a pair for the studio and wow...they are true main monitors...so i decided...well..lets try them in my livingroom too... oh man...big mistake..awfull! Studio monitors are for mixing in a controlled situation, hifi is for at home! But...

    Going into the deep..pro's and con's

    That is very very true, although most recording jobs in studio's these days are payed by bands itself. (but they like to sound like those on the radio haha.) Your last sentence was something that i consider very important. Looking back at my childsdream, running a commercial studio, i must say...

    Going into the deep..pro's and con's

    True, but there are always lots of real talents with a cracked nuendo version on an old pc and a 500$ setup who make productions that make me feel like a geek. I now of one person who could actually blow a lot of the most rewarded musicians away without blinking....but somehow it just not...

    Going into the deep..pro's and con's

    This is a discussion i frequently have in the studio. People (both musicians and engineers) seem to be affraid to go pro in the business. I understand from their point of view but sometimes I see people who would actually do pretty good in the business not daring to make the jump. If you have a...

    DA-88 and midi sync question

    In the menu of the da88, set tc out to abs time. That way the time displayed on the front of the recorderdisplay hh.mm.ss.ff will be outputted as smpte to the tc output on the back. It will not cost you an extra audiotrack. TC information is recorded on a subtrack of the tascam. Connect the tc...

    Had another A&H moment

    Nop, you had to tap the housing. The reason this thread is called 'another' ah moment is because this is not my first encounter with poorly fabricated a&h. I know the gs2000 series had a very bad design regarding the powersupply. I friend if mine is the repairsmen for a big distributer and...
