I've mixed quite a bit at the Crystal ballroom, and for sure it's very difficult. The subs are mono center so there is the least amount of comb filtering, but the issue I've found is that the spring loaded floor resonates, making the bass very loose. The corner setup sucks, yes- and there is no acou...

Dynaudio BM15A monitors- for sale or trade

I have a l/r pair of Dynaudio BM15A's. They fell victim to a talkback in the tracking room being left on, loudly, with no engineer in the control room for a take. Yup, you guessed it- boom. $2,400.00 wort of monitors now wait to be refurbished. Both speakers still power up, but the drivers are mostl...

When thinking about modern music production, a large console is usually not in the picture when taking into consideration cost and above all, portability. The form is following function. But having owned and used quite a few different pre amps, I would say that the differences when equated in the ov...

Keith Mcmillan softstep foot controller

Keith Mcmillan softstep foot controller. New in the box, including everything. Bought this too quick for a project a couple weeks ago, it turns out I won't be needing it. Taken out of the box once. So i'll go ahead and say it's "mint" condition. Not a scratch. All original packaging, plastic still o...

Re: RADAR - Worth learning/ using?

the inconveinience/ non-visual nature of tape to me... That inconvenience can be a benefit, forcing you to make decisions with ears and not eyes. Having learned on analog in the 80's, I've come to really miss the format of ear only decisions and find myself turning off the goddamn monitor when work...

I believe it works either passive, or with phantom to be able to activate internal filtering options.

Been a touring engineer for years. I like the m88 a lot for body with female vocals,, but off axis rejection isn't that great. My current clients use the telefunken m80 and it's great, lots of clarity and good rejection. Lots of top end like a condenser. However... technology won't replace technique...
