Re: Nickelcrap

I kinda like the juxtaposion of the two....wish that's what they would have released instead of each individually.

Re: best synthy keyboard - preferably cheap!

I'd like to advocate for a few not yet mentioned, I have all these, and none of them cost me more than $100: Yamaha TX81Z: Rack version of the Yamaha DX7. THE FM synth. Really intense programing, but it's capable of incredible sounds....strange, lead, pad, percusion, whatever. I use it for strings a...

Re: MS recording for upcoming session?

you can get MS on pro tools by making a duplicate Side mic track and flipping the phase. I'm loving this sound lately. Hm. I was hoping I could hear it before committing it to disk, you know? I guess I could mult the side mic and flip the phase on one channel, eh? Isn't there a decoder or some such...

MS recording for upcoming session?

I?ve got a session coming up with a Don Caballero-type band. I?m recording the drums in a very nice drum room, going for a nice, roomy sound. I?m going to close mic the snare, kick, and both toms with mics 3-4 inches off the skins?but I want to try something a little different for the overheads/room...

Re: Mults

Yeah, the band is very similar to Don Caballero, and would definitely notice the latency since there's not much "racket." They're tracking to a click, also, so it'll get real funky. So I'm just going to have to go with my original plan: mult the pres and send those to the Qmix (which I bough off To...

Re: the gossip

i really like the way their stuff sounds...anybody know how they record? the name of a studio? I did live sound for them once. If I remember right, their most recent release is on Kill Rockstars label...you could probably get some info from there?? The guitar player played a Firebird into a totally...

Re: Mults

Chris, I'm afraid you'll just have to continue hating PT. Here's what a helpful chap at the digi forum told me (and I'm posting this for anyone who runs into the same trouble): "monitoring through the low latencey outputs 1&2, everyone can monitor the same mix, with no noticable latency. You can ass...

Monitoring tracks in record mode in PT?

I need to send a few tracks out of the analog outs of PT WHILE those tracks are being recorded. Can I just set the tracks "output" to Analog 1 or 2 or whatever? I remember that the last time I tried this it didn't work...wouldn't let me to take the signal back OUT of PT while recording. Is there a w...

Re: Mults

So again, why not monitor off of the console and either send to the cue setup through the console aux outs or buss outs? I've never used a Series 65, but even if it's only a 4-buss with two aux sends, you could still do this, right? Chris Garges Charlotte, NC Thanks for you help, Chris. If you mean...

Re: Mults

Close. I'm running 8 mics through a TL Audio Tube Tracker (direct outs but only 2 aux sends), and 6 through Neve 33114 clones (only direct out). They have a Trident Series 65 console, which many engineers who work there tell me is not great for front end...but good to mix down through. If I get my S...

Mults

I have an upcoming project in a studio that doesn't have mults on the patchbay (??). Anyway, I'm using a Qmix headphone amp (great, btw) which is basically a small mixer that takes one stereo and 4 mono signals, so each bandmember can dial in his OWN mix. Nice. The only trouble is that, due to the f...
