i just picked this up the other day and im diggin' it as well...i think i saw beth orton open for beck back in 2000 in Den Haag, Netherlands (the concert was held in one of the main meeting rooms for some sessions of the EU which are held outside of Brussels...it was totallly weird...cant swear for ...

Doesn't matter I suppose. It's rediculous whatever it is. And I love it.

is it the sound from galaga when you'd get the two ships and one would blow up?

i've been listening to this for over six years now and i still cant get enough of it...its genius lays in its simplicity...i must still listen to it two or three times a week. it never leaves my rotation. i fear americans are missing out on this...anyone out there been listening to manu chao or manu...

hell, right now i wish someone had done a hack job! i might have actually had it fixed by now. i've hooked it up according to the schematic and its just not making the juice...the transformers are all good, the components in the path have all been replaced and are testing right but the juice just wo...

you might not be seeing 170V on the reed bar because your meter might not have the proper impedance to see that voltage. Its probably there - if you unplug it and replug it in and it makes a huge loud snap in the audio the voltage is there! the 170v is definitely not there... I have the full schema...

semantics. the records are certainly brick-wall limited. Well, if you really want to get into semantics, brick-wall limiting is far from defining mastering. At some point, a master copy was assembled to go to duplication with the correct spacing, program order, and desired sonics... amen...can i ge...

let me preface this by saying i've never attempted this before... if you have a multi-pattern mic you might want to throw it in omni and position the singers around it based upon the parts they sing and in relational distance to the mic...for solos you could have the soloist move closer and then ste...

i have a couple of questions about a wurli im working on...after replacing caps, transistors, etc. the pre-amp is working (ie... it will spit out audio that i plug into it) but the pick-ups aren't getting any juice. from the looks of it this unit went through a real bad "fix" at some point. this is ...

Yeah, seriously...Freedom is one of the best smooth jazz / r&b tunes I've ever heard. And Blarney Stone is the quintessential...uh...drunken, angry Irish pub song. amen..and can i get a witness on both accounts...i only have 3 things to say: 1. how 'bout "baby bitch" as the most beautiful "love" so...

i would stay away from ever buying anything "new" from apple during the first quarter of the year. my logic being that they are unveiling their latest and greatest. you'll buy a new imac and then two weeks after it ships they'll be offering twice the amount of computing power for the same price. not...

i know you are specifically interested in web stations, etc...but... i have run across so many great bands/albums just by doing a little "biblographic research" as it were...for example, say you really like the way a certain band's recording sounded. find out who engineered it or mixed it or produce...

I just got back from seeing Daniel Lanois in Athens at the 40 Watt. Holy fuck! this is great to hear. he's playing the Earl on the 14th here in the atl and my wife and i have been planning on going but i've been curious as to how his sound was going to translate live...i can't freakin' wait! nesta

anyone have any thoughts on this? will i have impedance issues going from the unbalanced out of the mixer to the balanced in of the a/d's?

any help is greatly appreciated.

thanks

Let me preface this post by stating that I know this has been discussed many times but I spent the last 45 minutes searching the archives and failed to find an answer to the following questions. Next weekend I am recording a band in their space and using their board. Today we did some pre-production...
