looks like mostly stuff like this out there.

I'll bet I could build something just as good, with real faders, so it didn't have the look of being something you'd use to pipe Muzak into a restaurant & shit.....

I can dig it. I've always wanted to build a little resistive mixer to combine signals coming off standalone preamps, to send the blend straight into the tape machine without having to go through console channels (which are usually tied up with other things). like a little 4-in / 1-out passive thing ...

Cello is great in all registers, but watch out for the fact most string players won't intonate to an overdub the same way they would to another string player, playing simultaneously. the slight adjustments and variability in pitch is what makes a good section sound like a section. that might be why ...

SOLD! thanks!

D19 for certain. RE10 or SM57 can work great with the right preamp.

also, just to clarify, I wouldn't call 1K low-mid. is 1K actually where the buildup is happening?

bump!

Twenty-three. Friday: the band, old friends of mine (honky-tonk trio: vocals/acoustic guitar, pedal steel, electric bass) drove into town (Boston) on tour. we set up, got sounds, and then got really drunk. Saturday: started early. the band recorded twenty-three songs live to 1/2" 8-track, no overdub...
