Re: I'm not a piano technician
Proud owner of a 1960’s Wurlitzer upright. You’re inspiring me to learn to tune the damn thing myself.

John Moreland / Visitor
Giving this a listen this morning. I think it may be his best songwriting yet, and the sonics are great. Worth checking out.

Re: Latest gear you've acquired.....
Ok, the Benson is also awesome. The CA-70s is ridiculously versatile for the small number of knobs. Have you gone through the presets? It does like a megaphone thing, distortion, high end sparkle. Really crazy how versatile it is. I didn’t expect that. Just did a quick scroll through some presets o...

Re: Latest gear you've acquired.....
Got the new Tape Op issue today and I don’t know if anyone here has used Mixwave plugins yet? In my search for a decent spring plugin I ran across the Mixwave Bensen Tall Bird and personally, I think it sounds fantastic. I’ve used it on guitars in every mix since I got it which I think was $49 on s...

DAV two-channel preamp. I’m pretty late to the party on these. They’re awesome. Clear but a little bit rounded up top.

Re: Television intro music that I never skip...
Not sure if it’s been linked yet or not, but nothing beats The Greatest American Hero for a tv theme song. Used to play the 45 on repeat as a little kid, singing into a brush.

Re: OH and room drum mic Techniques
I’m currently in a small room with some treatment (but could use more). ORTF angled so it’s on a line with the bass drum and snare, as Drumsound describes. I get them in pretty tight - about 6’ high and on a vertical plane with the outer rim of the bass drum. They’re effectively cymbal mics, without...

Re: RIP Mark Rubel
Lovely remembrance, Tony. I only had the chance to meet and talk with Mark a few times, but knew instantly what a kind and generous person he was.

Re: Holy Fak i've been waiting six years for this!!
It feels like the synth department actually gets to make good shit at Behringer. Too bad everything else is just meh. I have heard something like the synth department is a personal project for Uli and it’s just subsidized by all the cheap mixers and PA gear; and the investment in heavily automated ...

Re: FS: Northeast -- Tascam 388
Funny enough, I’m moving to Maine next summer and have been considering a 388. Longshot, but if it’s still available then, let’s talk!

Re: Fateful recording
I remember a blues gig in my early 20s where the bass player (who was limited to start with) and the guitar player were smoking hash (or maybe the were tripping) and THEY thought the gig was amazing . In reality, they both played like shiiiiiiiiiit. The singer and I were not amused. Reminds me of t...

Re: Fateful recording
I’ve been staying (mostly) dry lately, and along with the added energy I have through the day, I’m really appreciating the clarity I have while trying to be creative. It takes a bit more intention to put myself in a creative place, but I’m lots more into it once there without anything to distract my...
