A good time indeed. I sat next to Tony (drumsound) in the Saturday afternoon Ramone/Filipetti studio session.. I was two or thee feet from this guy: http://tinyurl.com/cmkvyj Phil and Frank were both incredibly kind and positive. It's way cool to have people of their caliber tell you that _you_ are ...

One possibility is a pair of passive Avantone mix cubes. They're about $200 a pair. And they're a professional tool you will always be able to use, even when you eventually upgrade to a better set monitors. http://www.avalive.com/pimages/pimage_58093.jpg These are 5", single-driver, full-range speak...

all i can say is avoid Nationwide Disc like the plague. amidst a whole host of problems and the whole project timeline sliding on a result of their slowness, the best part was when one of their reps thought he had me on hold, but didn't, and i heard him ask a co-worker "hey, this prick says he want...

A couple comments.. 1) I was also a hold-out... got an Ipod as a gift a few years ago, and didn't use it much for a year. I always used to take a stack of cds with me to the office everyday, on road trips, etc. Once I started loading up the Ipod, I couldn't stop... it's very cool to have hundreds of...

RPM = record production month. You write, record, mix, and submit a cd in one month. Then you re-introduce yourself to your friends/spouse/kids during the next month. Who else is in this year? :D I did it last year, but this year I think I'm going to take a pass... too much going on this year, inclu...

The most important thing is to train your ears to the new sound. Like you're doing already... Purple Rain is a glorious record, innit? Just play stuff you like and keep digging through your collection to learn how great sounding records are supposed to sound.

I did a search and couldn't find much. What's a good, free (or really cheap like me) software based RTA? I found the A&H and I'll check that out this weekend. I have access to a LinearX pcRTA system at work. But I don't want to drag that old computer it's loaded on around. Are you on a mac or pc? V...

If your current monitors have decent high end and bottom end and you just need accurate midrange, I have to highly recommend the Avantone Mixcubes. +10! Particularly if your budget is that tight... just get the avantones, and learn to mix with them. For the money, heck for three times their price, ...

what i want to know is how the F did they go unnoticed walking out with all this stuff? -ryan Reports are that the theft happened over the Thanksgiving break, when the university was closed down. A normal campus population of 40,000 drops, oh, down to <5000... I work on campus in another department...

The single biggest piece of advice I ever got: Buy once. Don't spend $300 now for something that will get you by... then a year later when you are ready to spend say $800 on what you originally wanted, you'll still have $300 tied up in the thing you now want to replace, and you'll be thinking you ha...

So that's what we were drinking? I never looked at the bottle... I was er, scared. But that didn't stop me from having three of said mystery beers. Good times, guys.. thanks, Tony, for having us over to your place. Folks who haven't been there: it's a terrific place, and Tony couldn't be a kinder/co...

Mark... the bahamas? You know they got a hurricane heading that way? Seriously, check the weather forecast before you head off to the airport.

I'm on for this Saturday....

meet up at Tony's at what time?

I remeber that night with the 'Club' They stayed at my house that night. Had you just become a Dad when we met? Yah, that's right... that was just after I became a dad x2. So it must have been about a year ago... the little guy is 14 months old now. So next Saturday evening.. I think I can do that....

Hey, I want in on this... Central Illinois can be a lonely place for tape oppers...

Tony, we met at a Secret Club (j.hall's band) show a few years back...

So what's the time/date/location?
