OK, so I spoke with a radio broadcast engineer and his first response was shielding. His suggestion was to solder a conductor from the ground pin of the XLR to the shell of the connector. He also said that occasionally he will run a ground from the chassis of the power supply to the ground of an ele...

I had a similar problem on a guitar cable of all things and it was the shield. A person who is much smarter in the ways of the dark art of RF told me that all of the shields are, in effect, an antenna and will pick up the signals in the air. The fact that it is transmitting through the output leads ...

I don't think anyone should HAVE to like Pinkerton. For me, it was one of those records that demonstrated very clearly the difference that engineering can make. The blue record and Pinkerton sound miles apart. I always knew people in the booth could make a record sound different from another guy. Pi...

Agreed. I love the sound of this record BECAUSE it is so different from their others. Great feel for the room sound, dirty guitars. Drums sound is epic. One of my favorite records. I know it was critically panned, but Pinkerton represents one of those artistic moments when exploration is crushed by ...

Are these electric trains? What kind of power are they using? In Chicago, the L system runs on 600 volt DC lines. EMF is generally not a problem because unlike AC current, the EMF fields tend to be smaller. I'm sure it's not a coincidence. Short term, I'd try to buy one cable of the best shielding y...

+1 on the reamp idea for reverb. The size of the barn is epic and the grain bin might be a worthwhile experiment. The only other thing I thought of was recording the vocalist away from everyone and use a high room mic above them in addition to the mic in front of them. On the other hand, this may ca...

Congratulations may be premature, but my fingers are crossed. The audio gave a great impression of the room. Considering you haven't had time to really get to know the space, your first time out was a dinger. You can really hear what it does for the drums, especially the snare. Nice work and keep us...
