I'm loving v control for transport and setting monitor mixes from the live room. Also invoice 2 go and square up for handling finances

I love this album, but 16 tracks of drums?! I assumed it was a minimally mic'd kit. After listening over and over I was trying to figure out ways to get that sound in 2 or 3 mics

Where do you keep your mic stands?

My tracking room doubles as a living space, and I need to keep my mic stands out of sight sometimes. I suppose I could always stuff them all in a closet... But I'm curious to see what creative an innovative solutions my fellow Tape Op'ers have come up with.

Severely distorted drum tracks

I recently received a mix project for a really cool vibey Animal Collective-ish band. One problem: the drum tracks are horribly clipped. My first idea was to start sample replacing, but the level of distortion and the style of playing (lots of ghost notes) make detection problematic for both Massey ...

Running a mix through outboard preamps

I know the practice of running a mix through a set of preamps for color is nothing new. Recently I decided to give it a shot and started running my mixes through a pair of SCA n72s. I'm very pleased with the fullness it adds to my mixes. My question is this: is there any recommended way to calibrate...

Traveling with Gear (airplane?)

Hey everyone, I'm currently making arrangements to do a record this summer out of town. The plan is to rent a house someplace scenic and set up a make shift studio.

Live at Electrical Audio is pretty boss too. Best version of "I Never Wanted You" in my opinion. TW Walsh mixed part of it live online. If you're not subscribing to his twitter you're missing out.
