Sorry for not making myself clear, I was just wandering if recording some instruments with the 2-610 and others with non-tube pres for the same song was sonically nice. People often come to the conclusion that you should use either one type or the other on the same song, not both. True????.... I've ...

Ok, the UA610 sounds great by itself, but how does it mix with solid state pres? Can one use both on the same track easily or not?

any late 50s/early 60s jazz album on Columbia

any late 60s/early 70s jazz album on CTI

i have an EXTREMELY imperfect pitch. But I noticed over the years that i could visualize harmonies better and better from one chord relatively to the next. How do you call that? It's useful because I can play back most tunes from memory on guitar (rich Bossa Nova songs cause me more problems tough)....

I'm a graphic designer. Beside that I'm building a home-but-professional-sounding studio in my cave. I'll record both my music and others' there

has anyone heard of a late 60's group called The United states of America?

great post Evan. You're the man.

It's a great album. As you say, the sound is thin but nice. If my memory serves me right there's not much low end. It is a totally unique kind of rock if you think about it retrospectively. I can't think of anyone else that used their great idea of soft punk minimalism after that. In a way it should...

i don't like Radiohead either. Although I find their last CDs more interesting to listen to with all these great sound textures and effects, i just can't stand Thom Yorke's moaning. And Godrich makes everything sound overcompressed.

syteks are Jim O'Rourke's favourite pres.

TapeOpAndy, as a Fatso user, what do you think this box adds to the whole 'tape versus digital' debate? How does recording through the Fatso compare to your experience of using tape? Is it a convincing substitute or just something very different which only makes digital recording more pleasing to th...

I'm pretty new to technics like compression. On my only compressor (distressor), there's a 1:1 ratio. Why?

Markpar,

now you've got the Fatso, what do you think of its "warmth" and "tranny" buttons? (I already have the Distressor so I'm more interested in these 2 options than its compression)
