Sum the outputs through a dirty old console?

BTW, the Reamp is the original, I mean that guy invented it and produces it in very small numbers so I totally understand the $200 price tag. I would have loved to have bought one from him just to support small business and because he tracked those Dead kennedys albums; but I had to spend the money...

If you don't mind splitting 2 pairs off single outputs, the Presonus HP4 is really nice.

Best bargain option: Audix i5. Personal favorite: Royer 121.

Goddamn mp3s. I hope they go the way of the rotary phone.

If yours needs restringing, AT will send you a kit for free. Just shoot them an email. Agree that it's a lame design, but for no cost you can resuscitate it .

Try Massey's Tape-Head plugin on certain tracks. Be judicious.

Shortly after the Pianos fiasco, we got stuck playing last on one of those 5-band deals at the Trash Bar in Brooklyn. We are from the West Coast and had never played out there before. Still, there was a good handful of friends waiting around to see us. But the Trash Bar ran way behind schedule, and ...

All the Pianos hate is downright therapeutic. I carried around that trauma of playing there for four years. Now I know, "it's not just me!"

God damn Pianos. Damn it in the fucking neck.

Massey plugs are the only ones I actually have fun with. Everything else I kind of have to plug my nose while using. Steve. A while back on your blog you were going to tackle the subject of Dither. Then you changed your mind. Any chance we can get your manifesto, I'd be curious to read your thoughts...

Damn. How much do I owe for all those cassettes me and my friends dubbed for each other back in the day? Just let me know where to mail the check, and do adjust for inflation.

Sincerest apologies.

Agree. Great read. Although I think "Heartwork" is boring and I'm guessing almost anything Colin Richardson did after Carcass would make me nauseous.

Incessant fucking around with plug-ins, effects, A/B comparisons, etc.

I prefer guys who work fast - money is always tight - have confidence to make decisions on the fly and don't bug me about it. If something sounds bad or off, I'll let you know.

They don't do much for me, but I respect them.
