Digging up old threads then commenting. My favorite internet past time. On Dark Side : . . . They're not being played very hard, and there's not much ambient quality to the recording that would identify the drum brand by sound. I'm supposing "ambience" here, or lack thereof, is the natural room soun...

Some random thoughts . . .

I spent the better part of the morning scouring the internet trying to get a grip on "knee" and how I might use it. This blurb was by far the most insightful and illuminating. Definitely a "light bulb" moment. Thank you.

This is exactly the kind of stuff I'm talking about. Thanks for the replies, makes me feel less crazy. I wonder what professional mixers constantly listening to music might have to say on this topic. Any rules you guys or gals might have to make sure that your decisions aren't being negatively influ...

Anyone ever experience what I call "tempo shock"? Explanatory Anecdote: Currently rotating between 3 songs. Writing, recording, mixing at same time. They are all on the grid. One is 108 bpm. One 126 . The other is 142. Yesterday I spent about 5 hours in the evening on 108. Before I called it quits f...

Anyone have any experience with focusrite repair shops in the USA? I just picked up a used ISA two. Went to check for a fuse before I powered on and noticed a completely blown electrolytic cap. Not the bulging type, rather the completely shredded variety. Smallish in size near the ins and outs of un...

bump on revised simplified post.

Simplified and edited from prior post. . . . Looking for technician to work on a stereo Magnecord 728. The machine is preamp only, pullled from the transport. It is in working order, but has some damage from shipping. It is vintage circa 1960, all tube, 12at7, 7025, and 6an8. Balanced transformers i...

That Buckley video is a great counterpoint as far as the sound of the acoustic guitar, or maybe I should say the presentation. The magic is in the raw performance, not the recording. I suppose it's appropriate for the situation though, just a dude with his voice and guitar. Lately I've been a sucker...

I just think the sound of the acoustic guitar on this track is terrific. It sits back in the mix but has a very distinct yet mellow presence. There is a lot of silent space in this track which I think helps. And the acoustic is not fighting for spectrum at all. Just wondering if anyone out there mig...
