WTB: U47 fet or U 47
Looking for a Neumann U 47 fet. If anyone is looking rid, drop me a message. I'm based in Northern Ireland and I'm frequently in London. Happy to deal with one from anywhere if you're up for shipping. Tired of the imaginary ones that are on Craigslist and Gumtree. Also interested in a U47 valve mic,...

Hey James, I see no one has pitched in here for you. As a UK/Ireland based studio owner and someone who worked my way into a recording job many years ago, I thought I'd give you some pointers that are true to my experience. As a studio owner in a small city in a very small country I receive approxim...

Spent the morning going through two studios worth of gear, taking notes and starting to draw up a list of what's to be kept/sold. Then went to a warehouse full of PA equipment, Many flightcases of cabling that's been there for 10 years. Started sorting, cleaning and testing these cables. Got about 2...

Bottles:Not permitted in the Jungle according to GNR!
This has made a big splash in Ireland today, not sure if USA has picked up on it/cares about it. I thought it was funny. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nxLUUQdqA0I&feature=player_embedded Guns N Roses in Dublin last night. They've been showing up really late on stage recently, 85-90 minutes late. I ...

Indeed, they even have a wiki page http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spide Just to tie it back to music, the Ted Leo & The Pharmacists song "Bottle Of Buckie" touches on the Scottish version called "Neds" They came back with the old keys and crow bar tonight. Thankfully unsuccessfully, for now. The polic...

Re: When you get robbed...
Hi, I don't mean to sound paranoid, but this sounds to me like an "inside job". Your receptionist did not greet the incoming potential customers, and just walked over to get coffee? FIRED. You had over 1000 pounds in the safe and not in a bank account? Who put that money there, and who knew about i...

Man, that sucks. I'm sorry to hear that, but I'm glad it wasn't worse. Do you guys not have alarm systems? We have an all singing, all dancing alarm system with a direct line to the police and to all our mobile phones, with movement sensors all over the building. However, we were open for business....

When you get robbed...
I was mixing a band at a festival atop a mountain yesterday when I got the call from one of my studio partners. "We got robbed" he said. The first image that scanned my mind was our control room emptied of everything. The opportunistic scumbags actually walked right through the control room, past th...

looking for a singer/collaborator
I make indie-pop music. I'm based in Ireland, but don't really mind where you are from. I'm willing to travel to record if needs be. Ideally someone in New York or Los Angeles, as I have one vocalist lined up from Longbeach, CA and friends w/ studios in both cities. We'd swap files back and forth fo...

43 Hours. Started the day after a 17 hour session for the same band. 6 hours between sessions. During our descent I dropped an Re-20, end grill fell off. The singer knocked a bottle of Newcastle Brown into the Control24, pretty early on too. Just before he was about to leave he knocked over a can of...

Seeking inspiration. Recommendations?
I've hit a little bit of a rut for finding new bands, albums and productions that make me feel all special and tingly. The last album that I heard that 100% totally and completely blew me away was Happy Hollow by Cursive, with Mike Mogis at the controls. I've also been listening to lots of old and m...

I used to run lots of backing tracks over a live drummer. We did hit into a few weeks of rehearsals with a full range PA/Monitor set up in a venue before ever playing a show. I had the pro tools sessions right there and we tweaked on a few level / minor eq issues. We used a good PA system that we kn...

I travelled 7 or 8 times a year on transatlantic flights with a Pro Tools set up, a bunch of guitars and old analog synths. Best advice I can give you is buy ultra suitable hardcore road cases for them. Some of the knocks and smashes those cases took were unthinkable, but nothing was ever damaged be...
