Re: New Pro Tools, who dis? "FREEZE"

OH! and CLip Gain!!! WOW!

I need to look into if there is a way to "lock" the clip gain so I'm not accidentally changing it when doing edits.

New Pro Tools, who dis? "FREEZE"

I'm late to the party again! I was on PT 6 and then PT 9 for many years. Moved to PT 2023 a couple month ago and I just now got the memo of this "FREEZE" function. Interesting! I can see this being really helpful when needing to do a last minute overdub and you've already maxed you fucking session o...

Re: Mixing with Hardware - Hybrid

The Bax is pretty clean, yet bold sounding, if that makes sense. You can do a lot with it, Each band can be stereo, mid or side, so once a frequency is chosen, you can audition each option. I got the 1db gain switches and on the mix bus that's kind of a lot (they also offer .5db which might be bett...

:lol: all y'all!

That pic reminds me of seeing Iron Maiden circa 1980.

Top o' th' page to ya's!
You saw Maiden in 1980??? Holy Shit! What size of venue? Where?
I'm embarrassed to say I've never seen Maiden or Priest. WTF is wrong with me? My wife has seen both a few times.

Re: Mixing with Hardware - Hybrid

When I downsized and got rid of my ghost, I bought a used D box. Honestly I wasn’t that impressed with it. It was a BIG jump going from the console to summing my 4 stereo busses etc so I may have been biased. But personally I didn’t get enough mojo out of it to justify not just going all the way in...

Re: Mixing with Hardware - Hybrid

I've mixed through a console for summing and using outboard gear in many variations as the DAW slowly overtook a tape machine. Late 90's it was always tape or ADATs, early 00's still tape but by 2004, seemed half of my records were still tape, and other half were tracked to tape and dumped into PT o...

Re: Latest gear you've acquired.....

I picked up those Amazon SDC shock mounts mentioned earlier for my Oktavas. Really nice for the price. I also got Kazrog's True Iron and True Dynamics. The 26W compressor is SOOO THICK sounding. Wow. They have a sale going on right now. I want to try their 242 and Synth warmer plugs but really tryi...

Re: Latest gear you've acquired.....

I saw that too! That's a good idea. I want something variable, but I might end up building one of these: https://www.diyrecordingequipment.com/collections/studio-essentials/products/l2p Very cheap and should do the trick. Although, I actually might have some inline attenuators here somewhere. I nee...

Re: Latest gear you've acquired.....

Always the struggle! So far it’s got the Burls awesome heft but with an extended top end. Now I get where that whole red silk thing from my RND 542s comes from. Then you add the EQ and it’s really incredible for the price. The Burl distorts maybe a bit better when really pushed, but I don’t have a ...

Thanks Theo.

I really wish I had better Sketchup skills. Would make my current build so much easier.

Well dammit, all this 1073 talk got me. I found a really good deal on a mint used AML ez1073. Gonna be doing a bunch of testing against my Burl to see how it compares.

First impressions are sounding good.
Looking forward to your thoughts.
