Looks great. I can't tell from the picture as it looks like both joists are sitting on top of the wall plate. Is there some kind of isolation clip between them or something? I mean between the 2x10's and the top plate? I assume the 2x8's are for the interior/ceiling (inner leaf) so they can sit on t...

If you haven't had an EL84 amp before it's good to know that if the amp is getting used they wear out quicker than other tubes. As long as you put in a matched pair you don't have to bias them. It's a plug and play situation. Maybe that's the same issue Fender had with the Blues Jr. - they had the ...

A-Designs EM-Blue (Erickson Montessi) - awesome sounding. Similar to the P1/Pacifica except this one has a nickel output transformer (extends the highs). Excellent working and physical condition (near mint cond). $435 shipped (USA lower 48 only). I'll cover Paypal fees. .. https://images.craigslist....

oh yeah, I'd never use one in the studio - well wait, I did have a singer/songwriter that used one once. it was only for a few things and it sounded ok for what it was. but definitely not what I would have chosen to do...

It's nice. I use freeze pretty much how you described. Sometimes I find that certain plugins are cpu hogs and if I have that on a track, I will just "freeze" that track so that it's not consuming cpu cycles (from the plugins) so that my Aux busses can pig out themselves. Another thing is that now th...

I still keep expecting your first post to start out with "...but I play one on TV."

I'm too lazy for mixing OTB. Or really, I'm just usually happy with what I can get ITB. I have OB hardware but most of that is for tracking and after that sometimes reamping (but I usually try plugins first). I only have one outboard EQ and it's actually really a preamp - a PM1000 channel - but I ha...

I'm with you. I would need to see it too - or feel it, and watch it, or even disassemble it. I just learn better that way (vs. books - too bad I figured that out after school lol).

I did get the pack of RAB Audio ProJax 40 monitor isolators (8 to a pack). I ended up using only the base (the shortest option - < 1") and it seems to hold my Dynaudio BM6a mkii's just fine and again I notice there is no vibration transmitting through to the desk/racks they are sitting on anymore. T...

all my runs are short so my patchbay is 1/4", FWIW, and the attenuators are in the patchbay I don't hear a whole lotta difference, as said so, on the side of those attenuators, it has where you stick the wires in (I'm calling the top, the part with the diagram and the screws to tighten the wires in...

yep, those are the stand-straps I wanna note i kinda got larfed at when I mentioned the line attenuators I sometimes use: https://messageboard.tapeop.com/viewtopic.php?f=14&t=90819&p=727293&hilit=pad#p727293 I think nobody bothered to look at the specs on those. While it's true it claims to do -1 t...

boring alert! I got a pack of those silicone rubber straps like VVV mentioned in another thread. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CQL54FST
maybe not the exact same, but looks like they will fit guitar stands (haven't gotten a chance to actually try them yet). super cheap for a 10 pack.

This is obviously more of a live-sound question, but anyone know of a harmonizer that actually works well for live vocals? probably pedal format, but just looking for options so whatever works (although probably needs to be under $300 or so?). I'm aware of a few. I know some will use the guitar sign...

I've got it and use it occasionally. sometimes it does the job it needs to.

you'll enjoy it. I got my 2nd AML 5003D in the rack and I'm glad to have it (but sad that I probably have to kick out something else - haven't completely decided which one yet)
