Hi, all! I want to build a line-level trigger that can perform simple momentary switch operation. audio out-->trigger level reached---> contact is made, triggering asso. devices. An example: My Oberheim DMX drum machine has individual outs for each voice. It's great to run it through the filter on m...

I'm interested. I am about to throw down for some NS-10's already. 419-346-5330 is my number, William Price is me on Facebook.

How about a large rectangular box against the wall? You could run a slotted 1*10 across the top long-ways with some vertical braces (4*4?) going from the shelf to the ground; this would provide upside down storage for cast iron-based stands. We had a locking panel for a door. This solution is likely...

When they work they are OK at best. Nothing as amazing as a Space Echo. Aren't those the Eddie Van Halen "Eruption" echo? There's a fine example of their dubious quality. However, they can feedback (if it's that one) and they can do real time tape-based pitch dives (again, if it's the same model), ...

I have decent monitors (not great; they are EV studio monitors). I also have AR-2Ax and Infinity Quantum-5 speakers. I have heard that the AR's are good for monitoring. Most of these will be run through an Alesis 100 watt "reference" amp, except for the Infinitys, which need a WHOLE lot more headroo...

I have recently had to select a rental that has good isolation from neighbors (necessary for band practice) but awful choices for spaces to edit. I have three choices regarding creating a monitoring situation: I can go on the sides of the "hot-dog style" room, or at one end. I guess I could go at an...

I am usign Pro Tools 7.0 and the compare function keeps toggling itself whenever I change plug in settings beyond a certain amount. I have uninstalled from the disc and reinstalled, and I have deleted the digidesign databases, but it still keeps coming back.
Anyone else run into this?

Actually, that was the first place I went and i was not happy with what I found at all (especially in Wikipedia). IMO, this kind of question is excellent for Google, or Wikipedia. Many questions are subject to opinion and experience, but why wait for a response when all you need is a definition? Fol...

Well, is the term "stems" a way to describe what you consolidate all your Pro Drools regions into before making backups that are platform-independant? Because I have been digitizing a bunch of old reel-to reel 1/4 track format stuff from a classical clients archive, and it seems reealy important (no...

Man, I feel like an idiot. I have been reading tapeop for years, and recording (albeit amateurly) for decades, and I don't know what a stem mix is!
The Wikipedia entry seems totally different from stems as they keep being discussed in the mag...HELP!

I've been listening to the first two Black Sabbath albums recently. I remain amazed by how awesome they still sound to me.
How about an article discussing the techniques/engineering on THOSE records?

Funny you should mention that...

Bleed and i go back about 10-20 years at this point
Now I am trying to figure out gating so's I can be a functional engineer .


Thanks, though,!

The situation- basement rehearsal track editing, some live small room recording. Lately, due to my newb-primitive-style gating technique, I have been editing out the leak in my drum mics tracks by hand. I really could use a good tutorial somewhere on gating. I have learned to HEAR compression and ga...

i actually had to make this choice when we went to Malaysia for a month last year. my picks were: ELO - Time (i refuse to defend this, but i am glad i brought it to listen to!) No one should have to defend any choice per their personal taste; and no one should especially EVER have to defend ELO as ...
