Re: Final Mixdowns with a DAW... what are YOU doing???

I've recently been running some mixes out of my mixer thru a pair of 1272's before I go back into my DAW. It seems to give the mix alot more depth and a nice bump in the low end.

Re: How many people make a living in this industry?

I've been fortunate to get tons of freelance work in broadcast. I mix news and music for CBS, NBC, CNBC, MSNBC, PBS and shitloads of other channels.The pay is great, but you do burn out rather quick.....I get quivers when my girl turns on the news or if I here Katie Kouric's voice. But hell, you got...

Re: Has anyone heard the new COMETS ON FIRE record?

Yeah, that Comets record kicks ass, so does Death from Above 1979, which is my current favorite. They are playing Rothko's on Dec. 4th, which should be interesting. The guitar player from Comets also has some interesting solo stuff called Six Organs of Admittance which I am positive I spelled wrong....

Re: Ashlee Simpson on SNL

I'm an AE for NBC and I know the SNL guys. What happened was Simpson's people were in the audio room arguing over what protools session to play and when and whom was goin to do it. Meanwhile, AssLee is on stage ready to go, and noone is paying attention so the drummer decides to go ahead and run the...

Re: I'm going to a mastering session.

Good luck brotha. Watch out for overcompression. Just got some tracks back from mastering that I had to send back....all of them. This loudness competition is getting ridiculous.

Re: UA LA-610

Just picked up a 610. Really focused on bass, and breaks up nice up top on guitar. The DI kicks seriously kicks ass and I second that it does a good jod fattnin up keyboards. Not that easy to get a pristine signal though, you do hear the tube graininess pretty much at all settings. Very colored, but...

Re: Just got $650 of GR certificates......

So I chose the irrational route and bought a Universal Audio m610 tube mic pre and a vintage EH Octave Multiplexer pedal. So I entered +$650 and came out -$500.......I hate fucking hobbies.
