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 ...

Re: Hotel Earth studio 1 build diary

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.

This is my hit making Ludwig Acrolite fully dressed for battle.

Good idea with that clamp for the bottom mic. Floor real estate is valuable once the stands start piling up!
Oh hell yeah!

Re: Hotel Earth studio 1 build diary

I will keep the updates coming : ) Would love to see some more screen shots of your sketchup or whatever CAD imaging you did. For instance, I'd love to see how the ceilings are working out between the two inner leaves, since i'm guessing the third/outer leaf isn't part of the isolation equation.

Re: Hotel Earth studio 1 build diary

As AI / playlist-bait easy listening muzak streaming becomes increasingly automated, I think the only business left will be at the far ends of the spectrum - artists who can make their entire record ITB on a laptop with beats headphones or whatever (which is cool, I'm not knocking it, but that's no...

Re: Hotel Earth studio 1 build diary

Fuck Yeah! Thanks for sharing this here! Looking forward to seeing the journey.
Nice to see good sized studios still being built these days. Each version of mine keeps getting smaller and smaller and smaller while real estate and building costs keeping going up!

Re: The bottom of the snare

As someone who has owned nothing but 100 watt tube amps or very loud old Peavey solid state amps for guitar amps, I really do need to get some lower wattage amps that excel in the studio. The Pro Jr. sounds pretty fucking cool. I miss my one knob Epiphone head. That was great in the studio. Cool......

Re: 1073's... Real deal or one of the many clones?

Ever tried the Avedis MA5? I've got one and I put it on my bass drum (kick if you prefer) and it's never left that spot. I tried it once for a female vocal and it was awful (just too much for her) but I should try it on some other stuff again. I always forget and grab something else. And on kick it...
