ART MPA II noise
My ART MPA is making a nasty buzzy noise. Sounds higher and buzzier than ground noise, if that makes sense. Maybe like impedance mismatch or an open connection. It has worked fine for the last couple years, doesn't get banged around and suddenly took a dump all over my life. I checked my cables, tri...

Most guitar stores are like that. My band stopped at a Guitar Center when we were on the road this summer cuz we needed strings. Holy shit. I about had a panic attack. It was hilarious in a way. Should go to one on acid or something. :shock: The WalMart vibe is super uninspiring. The only thing more...

+1 for Levee intro, but we all know that
Also, +1 that YouzTube sounds like caca but there's this:

and this:

You really do gotta keep it in the context of the mix though

I'm way late to the party on this thread, but seriously, thanks Larry and everybody else who makes Tape Op happen. It's pretty much the only publication in this field I give a shit about anymore and it helps keep my brain in tune when I start to feel frustrated/bored/sick of music. Happy 100 and her...

The one time I dealt with Sennheiser for mic repair, I told them I wanted to know what the cost would be before they fixed it. I didn't hear anything from them for 2 weeks. I emailed them to see what was up and they sent me back a bill for $200 and said it was done. When the mic came back, it was st...

Fuck protools. Reaper is cool. I use Cubase, but that's just me. Depending what you're recording, 88k may or may not benefit you. I feel like it helped with a couple classical recordings I did, but the last couple rock records, I don't feel like I gained much, if anything and IDK if it was worth eat...

I've never been happy with any of the cheap-o Chinese stuff...you can go Russian (Oktava), Japanese (audio technica), or Austrian(AKG perception) for the same dollar and get much better sound. The AKG Perceptions are NOT made in Austria. On topic, I had good luck with the CAD M179s. Used them on pi...

Earthless - From the Ages If you want guitar solos, they got 'em. Been listening to a lot of Brant Bjork's stuff lately. Jalamanta has some real laid back grooves and a great old-school sound to it. He has a few other really good records too. Simple, no-bullshit, well executed riff rock jams. Page &...

Very cool project. Hope to do something similar sometime. Studio furniture is so damn expensive for "normal" people to buy. Also, LMAO at: "Your desk is acoustically fucked." "It won me a Grammy." "oh shit." That's obviously not how it went, but it's still funny. The Crow is a fantastic record all a...

I'm an idiot.:oops: I thought headphone amps with aux ins on each channel had to be in mono mode to mix between the main and the aux, but apparently not. I'll just feed a mic into the main input and the separate mixes to each stereo aux input and I'm set. Things usually are more simple than I try to...

Looking for a foldback/talkback solution
I'd like to be able to send a talkback signal to 4 separate headphone mixes without using up one of the inputs on my recording interface (Steinberg UR824). The interface has mixing software that allows me to feed whatever inputs to whichever outputs, but then, obviously, I'm down one recording input...
