my two best finds were on eBay doing a local local search (probably at least 5 years back). 1953 allen organ rotating cabinet that a guy had rescued from the trash, replacing the 3 12's with prototype speakers from Reverend. 140 lbs, nobody but me bid, I got it for $20 and drove over and picked it u...

I'm not sure I think the Cubase/ProTools/Nuendo business model is better for the consumer than the Reaper model. This is not a judgement on any of the specific software or an assement of which is a better way to make money in the current techological and legal climate -- but rather an assessment of ...

I use sendspace a lot but I recently bought a pogoplug, which allows you to make any usb drive a webserver. You can create a folder on the harddrive and give whoever password protected access to the folder. http://www.pogoplug.com they are about a $120 as I recall. Great for music and video sharing ...

I agree that a whole magazine of rack photos is boring and the editorial direction is very clear from Larry here. BUT, what about some pictures of control room, racks, home studios, etc.? I'm actually thinking of a feature in the old 'Musician' magazine where they showed someone's home studio and la...

check this out. bestnetworx.com/uploader/files/48/mutantesfuzz.pdf I don't build them myself, but I did find it when looking up the same thing. To me it always sounds like it's got more harmonic information than just a regular fuzz face or big muff -- or maybe its more a mix of a knock off fuzz face...

Yes, it's hime.
Baseball was not as good to him as he'd once have us believe.

It does all come down to unique listeners. If almost all 200,000 were unique -- well then be happy with $50 because they listened and then didn't listen again. But let's take the more likely scenario that 50,000 listened on average 4 times... even if you only sold the song for a penny, you'd make 10...

I didn't find it that bad as a consumer, but as an advertiser I did cringe. The visual did get me to read the ad (good for them). But the content (you give us your email and we'll give you a yoyo) was disapointing. Okay, I know who you are and what you do, and I get that if I sign up for the newslet...

I don't have a pile of LDCs either. I've had un-moded oktava 319's in the past, the cad gxl300 and currently have a at4050 and an CAD e100 (an older usa model). There isn't a whole lot I don't like the at4050 on, but I've had a similar reaction with CAD 100 -- I've never found a voice that I liked i...

I've had good luck with the mackie active speakers described above with a mackie board, and the yamaha mixer heads (mine was 6 inputs and 400 a side) with the BR series speakers with 15 inch woofers. New the yamaha is probably 11-12 hundred. If it was used, I'd expect to pay half that if was in good...

I love my Grado SR80s. They are marketed to an audiophile audience, not recording -- but they sound great and while I don't only mix using headphones, I find what I do mix on them translates really well to "real world" systems (cars, computers, bookshelf systems) I think you can get them on amazon f...

+1 on if you need it/ have an application in mind. If you already have a cabinet, test it out with the cabinet to see if you like it. If you plan on buying one, take it to the store to try it out with different stuff. I got one for a large cabinet (4, 8, 16 ohm outputs on the head are great) that I ...

LazarusLong wrote:e902 will do both very well. so get 2, I guess. Don't skimp and get the e602, you'll be sorry. e902 both gets the attack and the WHUMP. Good stuff!

+1, But I also like the sm7
Recording drums I'll often use the e902 on the floor tom, which I really like

I do like these Sabian Paragons.

I have not yet had the opportunity to record Neil Peart playing them in the woods.

You need to get some mass to have the desired effect (which it sounds like you understand). Rigid fiberglass (rock wool etc) would work, and you are basically then using the cube walls to cover that up -- cosmetically it should work, but the 703 (or competitive product) is the actual bass trap. The ...
