I really like my Area 51 TT, definitely worth checking out

Ditto!

Well 2006 has been a crap year (for me at least). I am new to tapeop and I am very excited about this years TapeOpCon and can?t wait to sign up. Looking forward to meeting allot of you that I hear from on the forums and to learn a butt load of stuff. I?m really happy about the venue as well since it...

Got a Art Pro VLA, some Mogami mic cables and a distortion pedal. A pretty good holiday this year.

Thanks RefD, Ill be giving em a call. Not sure which version i have, didn't come with the box and i don't see a "made in" anywhere on it. Oh well. I did notice that mine has more #'s screened on for the ratio knob than ones i've seen in the ad's (5 compared to 3). Only seen one other pic with the sa...

Yeah, one of my VU bulbs has been out for a while now... I have never even bothered to open it up to check. Reading this today, now it is on my short list.

HAHAHA! I just checked out your myspace pics and saw your VLA in the background and its the same fucking light.

Ive opened it and it looks like it would be easy, im just a technical retard and dont want to screw it up. If anyone knows the exact bulb to replace it with i think i can do it. I could probably find out but im being lazy at the moment and am just checking here first to see if anyone has done this i...

Just got mine yesterday from an eBay purchase. Everything works great and i love the sound of it. One thing though is that one of the VU light is out. Are these an easy switch out or do I have to send this thing in? It?s more of an annoyance than a necessity but just wonder what any of you have done...

Thanks all. Now I have to build on my flanging chops with my new found knowledge. This should be interesting. Thanks again.

I love that Frank Black song on that comp. Great job!!

I always hear everyone talking about the hamptones. The Tube and JFET both have great reviews and they sell them pre assembled so if your technically challenged like i am its a good thing. Sounds like they fit into your description. Also Joel raves about the Sage Electronic pre's (which I really wan...

Nice. That?s what i thought (tape manipulation) but wasn?t quite sure. I really dig that article and will definitely borrow some of those techniques. Is it possible to recreate the tape flange in say Protools doubling up the tracks and slowing one down slightly? I?ve only been using Protools for a y...

I was curious how they got such an effect, mainly 60's insane flange that seems to have a mind of its own. Notably The Byrds "Wasn?t Born To follow" and some of Hendrix's tunes. I think Lenny Kravitz used it at well. Was this a pedal/rack effect or tape manipulation of some sort?

makes sense, ill tweak with it a bit
