The Zoom H1 doesn't satisfy the omnidirectional mic requirement. The H2 does though. Maybe I'll look into that.

I checked with them. The only mic they have that's compatible with the iPhone is the Blue Mikey which has a cardioid polar pattern, not omnidirectional. Thank you though. Their customer service was very nice and prompt.

An omnidirectional mic might work. If it's good, I can probably bypass the mixer (and save space). Do you know of any decent omni mics that are made for the iPhone (or iPod)? I know the Blue Mikey is cardioid.

I don't really want it to be an interview per se, where it's I ask a question and they answer. If it was, I'd have no problem doing the pass-the-mic thing. I would want this to be more of a hangout/discussion thing. Keeping it as real as possible is a necessity and taking time to pass the mic back a...

I would like to start recording podcasts on my iPhone while on tour with my band. I would like to interview other bands. For this I would need some sort of setup where I can record up to 4 channels (or more) at once. I'm assuming I would need a 4-channel mixer (maybe a cheap Eurorack) but does anyon...

I heard that TLC is going to be doing this on a reality show too.

This is not a joke. If I was going to joke I would have said why did the feminist cross the road? To suck my fucking cock.

The one time I recorded a glock I used 2 Oktava 012s on the left and right, pointed towards the center, about a 18" above the bars and a Beta 57 in the center, slightly closer than the Oktavas. It sounded great...pretty much mixed itself. I didn't need to add any EQ or other effects either.

I am attempting to put some 4-track recordings onto a PC. I have all my notes regarding volume and panning so I will be able to do the mixing in real time on the 4-track (while it's going to the computer). I'm going out of the 4-track (Tascam 424) into one channel on a Mackie 1604VLZPro into one cha...

not necessarily... i got both my 319 and my 2 012's from an independent store who agreed to match GC's price... that might have changed though, this was 2 years ago.

That happens to me about once a year. I go the doctor and he sticks a giant seringe in my ear. I hold a container under it while he flushes it out. There's a golf ball in the cup after. I actually kind of look forward to it. Everything sounds hyper sonic for a day or two. I had this done once and y...

i like the 319 and it was my primary vocal mic until i purchased a rode k2 and a ksm44... i thought it was a great deal at $100. I'd pick one up for $70, although I HAVE heard that there are good ones and bad ones.. Depending on your state, you might be able to take home a couple and test them and p...

Yes, Steve Gorman is a great drummer. I think he's playing with the Stereophonics now. I lost track...

Not as bad as the harmonies on Battle of Evermore, though, eh?

what??!?! the battle of evermore harmonies are AWESOME!

i had one tabla lesson and that shit blew my mind...it is so in depth it's scary.

there's no wonder that people devote their entire lives to the art of tabla playing...

Radiohead's "Dollars and Cents" is quite jazzy.. i wouldn't really consider Kid A to be under the heading of "jazz" but it sure was experimental... i agree with just letting the label of "jazz" die out. Any word that is supposed to describe both Sonny Sharrock and Kenny G is pretty worthless anyway....
