I don't dabble in too much outboard gear, but by way of trade, I picked up a bellari rp 220 to mess around with, and will probably add other pieces in the near future. So I'm wondering what you good people are using for racks in the studio? I'm looking for a single, 4-6 unit rack. The gator, skb, ra...

MPC 2000xl. Should be an interesting adventure.

Yeah, I've actually been pretty fortunate with those impulse purchases myself (for example the Rhythm Master that just so happens to be the same wood grain as my monitors!).

But Craigslist...that's where the magic's at. CL trades are the absolute best for the burgeoning tonesman.

I actually just went through a nightmare on the 'Bog with a tube amp (against my better judgement, of course). Is it common practice to ship a tube amp WITH the tubes in their sockets? I've never had to ship a tube amp before, but I would just assume that it's a no-no? Regardless, I am NOT doing tha...

Currently fixing up a Tascam 424.

Last week was a very good week. By way of craigslist trade I acquired a Juno-60 and a Realistic MG-1.

Jazz Chorus. Traded some odds and ends via craigslist. Time to get that Steely Dan songbook out.

Brubeck. He's an artist, a pioneer.

SM7B has been sold. Still taking offers on everything else.

Added Fender 65 Twin Reverb Reissue and Orange Crush 15R guitar amps to the mix. Would prefer to sell those locally.

Trying to downsize my musical footprint. All items are lightly used unless otherwise noted. ADDED: Amps! Hard to see these two go, but I am limited to apartment playing/recording right now.

I went from 1st gen Duet to an Audiofire 8 back to the Duet. As a disclaimer, my main reason for going back to the Duet was because I downsized from 8 channels to just two because I only need two tracks now, BUT here are my observations. IMO, I like the pres/converters on the Duet much better and th...

and another thing... not having a full time day job. This. Before I started doing the full time day job thing, I had the time/energy/motivation to write/record an album's worth of music for a friend's play in the span of about 4 months. It was a lot of background and incidental music, but I was wor...

That Evil Robot looks pretty neat too. I'm looking for something a little less expensive

Meanwhile..looks like you can change the output of the Vox AC4TV (4w, 1w, 1/4w) to get that desired head room or get nasty. Interesting...

Thanks for the suggestions, guys. Ideally, it would be great to get something clean that can also break up pretty nicely too. I have an Orange Crush amp that I've been using in the interim, but I'm finding that colors the sound too much. I've also got an Ampeg VT-40, but I haven't been happy with th...

http://youtu.be/abjN6NvaXx8 There was another version up with commentary about the edits and such, but it got removed this morning. Not sure if you guys have seen this, but it's pretty crazy that "Purple Rain" (for the most part) was cut live at 1st Avenue along with "I Would Die 4 U" and "Baby I'm ...
