Fair. I have no actual reason for this, but I am somewhat dubious of the Slate stuff. I own Trigger 2 and it's great, though.

just the mic and plugin. I have clean pres and character pres. I'm not really trying to go head to head with some other mic anyway. I've already got one of the ML-2 (sdc) mics and it's interesting. Some of the plugin emulations are subtle, some are NOT! Ah i gave this route a thought, as well. Lean...

remixing some old recordings I did 15+ years ago. guitars were done with some pretty harsh sounding solid state amps - very fizzy and ear-searing. i likely used 421s or M69s on them, so i sure didn't help tame any of that at the time. EQ is tricky as I do want some amount of harshness, so any seriou...

watched a mix with the masters video where Greg Wells was complaining about overusing stereo reverbs. Admittedly, I had never given much thought to using a mono verb. I guess I always figured stereo would be preferable as I'm usually adding verb to drums or a vocal and want them to feel like they're...

I guess I'm no help. Just commiserating. How do you like that U195 though? the U195 is great! the "fat" switch makes it pretty damn versatile. i use it on vocals often, guitar amps almost as often and sometimes for FOK and hell yeah, the 4050s are great. i wish i had 10. i think i could make a whol...

I mostly record punk/hardcore and metal. I do other things as well, but the bulk of my work is with screamers. I have a decent mic locker. When it comes to non screamers (and screamers), I can grab my U195, my Oktavamod MKL2500 tube mic, 414B ULS, 4050, Oktavamod MK319 or an SM7, among other things....

figured I would post here before I put the rest of it on reverb. can send pics to any interested parties. EV RE15 - great mic, just not using it much these days. it's old and has lost plenty of paint, but still works fine. emphasis switch has basically disintegrated. it is currently on the flat resp...

depending on what the clipping sounds like, the de-clicker in RX might actually serve you better. I doubt you'll get it totally restored, but it might make it less obvious/offensive.

it depends (stock TOMB reply #1)! If you need something super sculpted to fit into a dense mix, then it sure makes sense you will be EQing the hell out of things to get them to fit. that's one thing I truly enjoy about doing quieter or sparser projects - I don't have to micromanage every damn thing....

This worked last time, so I thought I'd try it again. Hoping some folks have some cases kicking around collecting dust I can take off your hands.

am I the only one who had issues with those LP percussion claws resonating? I still use them on occasion, but always mounted to another mic stand.

I was concerned about shortcuts, too, but then learned you can program them in Reaper (maybe other DAWs, also?). Mostly don't wanna throw a few hundred bucks to Steinberg every couple years just for stability. I'm getting by just fine for the time being - but i've had issues with plugins and just se...

I think there are more than a few out there. Been using Cubase 6 since 2012 or so, I believe. Have only tinkered with Reaper, and haven't updated past version 4.99, but it just seems so much more user friendly and has features I just wish I had in Cubase - esp wet/dry for all plugs (why on earth has...

I can't be the only one with a bunch of gear that looks like shit that still does a good job, no? What have you got that looks like hell but you still use all the time? recently scored an Oktavamod MK319 with a dented to hell headbasket for $225 that sounds great! I have a DW brass snare (pre-collec...
