Re: My poor hears are getting old
So I had a medical issue a few years ago that ravaged my right ear; good amount of loss between 2-4kh and some raging tinnitus. Yay me! I’ve learned to work with it and my brain has done a really good job compensating, but I’m super interested in feedback from anyone with hearing aids. I have avoide...

Re: Mixing with Hardware - Hybrid
When I downsized and got rid of my ghost, I bought a used D box. Honestly I wasn’t that impressed with it. It was a BIG jump going from the console to summing my 4 stereo busses etc so I may have been biased. But personally I didn’t get enough mojo out of it to justify not just going all the way in ...

Re: Mixing with Hardware - Hybrid
I use my console for summing and an analog mix bus chain. For years it was a Drawmer 1969, which I still think is a great compressor, it's got switched attack and release times. If I keep the threshold and makeup at 0, I could easily make a note in PT for the attack and release for easy recall. A f...

Re: Mixing with Hardware - Hybrid
That's funny I was reading about the KTs earlier today looking at some cheaper Pultec options (opinions weren't great on them). I am eyeing the AML Pultec Kits, which are hella cheap to build considering the quality and options as well as the DIYRE Pultec kits which are slightly cheaper but very bas...

Mixing with Hardware - Hybrid
So last year, I reached out to the engineer (Michael Kramer) and mixer (Jon Markson) of the Pile of Love self titled album. It has a sound that I love. A really nice thick low mid bloom that sounds warm and gushy but never muddy. I think it's the first album in a long time that sounds sonically simi...

Re: Latest gear you've acquired.....
I picked up those Amazon SDC shock mounts mentioned earlier for my Oktavas. Really nice for the price. I also got Kazrog's True Iron and True Dynamics. The 26W compressor is SOOO THICK sounding. Wow. They have a sale going on right now. I want to try their 242 and Synth warmer plugs but really tryin...

Re: Delay multitap plug in w. assignable panning.
Logic Pro X comes with Delay Designer. It can do all that and more. https://support.apple.com/guide/logicpro/delay-designer-overview-lgcef18b8dc5/mac Holy shit, thank you for this! I thought I had gone through all the Apple standard plugins but I totally missed this one. Playing around with it now,...

Re: Latest gear you've acquired.....
It’s funny, I think I remember reading a review of the Redcloud in tape op and thinking, “what would I ever need 8 little attenuators for?”
I bought the DIY 500 extender kit for testing as I was gonna pull the trigger on a few Lola’s till I got sidetracked. They seem like a good company.

Re: Latest gear you've acquired.....
Always the struggle! So far it’s got the Burls awesome heft but with an extended top end. Now I get where that whole red silk thing from my RND 542s comes from. Then you add the EQ and it’s really incredible for the price. The Burl distorts maybe a bit better when really pushed, but I don’t have a ...

Re: Latest gear you've acquired.....
Well dammit, all this 1073 talk got me. I found a really good deal on a mint used AML ez1073. Gonna be doing a bunch of testing against my Burl to see how it compares.
First impressions are sounding good.
