I certainly would be open to trying that product. It may be impossible with the budget but anything to help get that "in yer face magical mystery tour era bass tone" which is what I am referencing.

Well I agree with alot of the sentiments everyone has shared but after listening to Mystery tour again this morning with head phones on I am always blown away at the tonal combinations and in particular the bass - it feels like its DI into my brain.

Good luck with the Blue Tube. Ours blowed big time. Opened a brand new one and the gain dial is totally offset on one channel and nearly non functional on the other. I gave it back to band mate to return. I am sure it is a manufacturing issue. The mp20 we used was much much more solid and works like...

Hello- I am interested in getting an additional compressor to compliment my fmr rnc for drums and bass. I would like any recommendations on NEW currently available units that are in a similar price range (sub 1000 anyway) that would do the trick. I record mainly DI with bass chain is GR ME-1nv or Ch...

I have fireface 800 and always wondered if I should be using the 800 firewire port.
For now the cost of an appropriate cable is prohibitive. But I have never had any problem with the 400FW line running all 8 analog AD/DA
anyone use these?

I wish more studios would have a wood burning stove/fireplace/
really I would love to visit sometime
cheers,

A while back I ran across this interesting article pertaining to recording vocals with this specific small condsenser mic. they run about 400 bucks used. ANyone out there like these?

I used to have the first run of as IOn and more recent micron. the ION was much more user friendly despite some of the lack of features. i suggest a newer ion as the early ones had majour OS bugs. I finally gave my micron away to 6 year old for a toy and i bought a nord lead 2x. but i still miss my ...

I really like the fireface 800. RME is noticibly better than m-audio- at least to my damaged ear drums.

I second that recommendation. From my experience prtty much any higher end AKG will be great investment. If you do tracking with headphones on you will really like the akg k 171s. They have very little bleed - however I warn you after 4 hours of non-stop overdubbing your head will be bleeding from t...

Thanks for the responses. Makes me wish I didn't throw away my old physics books.... or actually I am so glad that I did. I have always been curious of the patchbay device- I should do some more investgating here on that topic.
I have a few more questions later but Cheers everyone

I am a one-man band singer/songwriter and also like to record my own stuff mainly just for fun. Mostly Alt. Rock stuff in the style of New Order Joy Division. I currently track my vocals and most instruments via Shure SM5b or AT4033CL into RNP/RNC and then into Fireface 800 and into Logic. I like to...

I used to live in a high rise apartment deal where I had neighbors on all sides and up and down. So I used the card box (a large flat box ) propped up by couch seat cushions with a radioshack small condenser into VLZ and on to MD 4 track. I thought it worked much better than expected and didn't both...

This is my first post and firstly i want to thank all who are here and have provided a wealth of tips and opinions that have been most helpful. I have had a few 4-track cassette units and loved the yamaha the best feature being the 4 individual outputs so you can transfer easily to a computer if you...
