Re: Snares - what’s everyone using nowadays?
Next the Bison 5x14 mapel 10 lug that was a college graduation present from my folks. That was Number 1 for a lot of years I played blues and rock gigs all over with that one. It even went to CBGB with me in '95 I think. Been in the room with this one. I’m not a drummer and usually don’t know what ...

Re: The Pro Jr.
They’re awesome little amps. Agreed with everyone on the speaker change. That’s the only thing I’ve ever done with one, and it was for a Weber that broke up a little more gradually. There’s some interview or otherwise out there of Nels Cline extolling the Pro Jr. Another cool amp in a similar vein i...

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...

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!
