Secondly, the telephone voice thing is very early 2000, but I actually did that on this record because I thought it was funny. The last time this band played together was when that was popular so I thought it was actually fitting to be a bit dated. We recorded the telephone voice in 1996 - using an...

So guilty . . .

I'm actually going through a pretty traumatic hearing loss in my right ear right now due to a sudden virus. It was down 30 db and distorted almost overnight. It's back up about 10 dis now, but it's a long term recovery that's a 50/50 chance of being permanent. I won't know for months until the virus...

So many things in this thread. One of my old bands that was together in the early 2000's randomly got back together over the winter and recorded an entire album remotely. Most of the guys were new to recording at home and EVERY TRACK CAME TO ME IN STEREO, but they were all mono of course. So that wa...

It's funny, maybe I've been doing this wrong/right all along but my "room" verb aux has always been used for this. I would pick a room appropriate for the band, small to medium tight for an indie rock band say, and then place every instrument into that room a bit, even the bass. Then tuck that under...

Several years ago I went through an LCR phase. Lately I’ve been compacting the drums so they resemble their actual physical space on stage more and getting away from hyper wide stereo stuff. Depends on the song, but definitely less panning of drums than I used to do. I’m an atheist, so I go back and...

I have a super clean mint Symetrix 501, push button type compressor. I can email pics to anyone interested, just PM me your email. This lived in an advertising studio from new to a few years ago when I snagged the pair. Only have one available for sale. Alright, finally got to perusing these on ebay...

On an on topic note, i should have a wasaphone mic coming next week, should be fun!
Not a problem at all, this is why I always loved the TOMB!

The Alice was the precursor/inspiration for the TapeOp omnis, right? I made a couple of those when they were the craze around here... ended up putting them in a manikin head, with a wax-filled coconut shell for a skull and rubber elf ears, to make a binaural head. Works pretty well. Anyone still ro...

Yeah, I actually checked out the Alice mic sound clips and I thought it sounded really nice, not broken record player through a telephone crazy at all!

I regret selling my Creation Labs modified Ghost. In the grand scheme of things it was the right move but man, I LOVED mixing on that thing. The pre's were solid and the EQ was great. But they can be maintenance hogs as well. Being able to run through the particular desk you are buying is a huge plu...

I totally forgot about the Alice mic!

Thanks Mark, I'll check out the carbon mic!

i'm curious about the wasaphone mics. I've liked the sounds i've heard from them.

I keep seeing things about the Bing but I can't find anything on them. guessing they aren't around anymore?

If you go the phone route remember that the mic needs power (6 volts I think but the correct info out is there). Lots of people wire up the handset speaker as a mic but if you want to use the mic as a mic you'll need a power supply. A friend of mine bought one online and who-ever built it used a ci...
