my brain is weird. that's probably a better solution. I have been mighty afraid of getting a mixer because I don't want it to color the sound, but also don't want to spend tons of money on one. any recommendations for a budget mixer with a natural sounding EQ? This is something I'd really like: a p...

Another 101 discussion about what the materials are that the diaphragm is made of. I hope not, or at least to the extent of it being an explanation for my questions. I have another question for you, @?,*???&?: you are in a new studio and in the locker there are only two dynamic mics you don't know ...

Re: COMPRESSOR

IT WAS AN ATTACK LIKE THIS, AFTER AN ITEM WAS A FEW DAYS LATE, THAT STARTED THIS WHOLE BALL ROLLING. WHEN YOU DECIDE TO TRASH SOMEONE WITH ASSUMPTIONS, MAYBE YOU SHOULD THINK ABOUT WHAT IT WILL DO TO OTHERS WAITING IN LINE. CUTTING THE POWER CAN LEAVE EVERYONE IN THE DARK, DUH!

Mic's diaphragm dimensions and LF response

Hi there, I've studied and been told that diaphragm diameter has little to do with LF response, and when people tell me that you need a big diaphragm to catch the big waves I always direct them to these papers: http://www.dpamicrophones.com/en/Mic-University/Technology-Guide/Large-Diaphragm.aspx Now...

Actually Niccolo, your statement about it not lasting forever is not 100% correct. When the "hairs" in the ear that pickup vibrations are permanently damaged due to excessively loud noise, the tinnitus is permanent. You're right, but the OP's description of his own tinnitus flavor looked like the o...

You guys are on the same page. Thanks for sharing. Hopefully someone from Waves will chime in and actually pay attention to this discussion. A 10:1 bulk discount for buying a bundle (Why not steal it? Everyone else does?), is giving away the farm, but it pushes people toward stealing because bundle...

Well, I used to suffer from tinnitus when I was doing live sound by night quite often for a living. I would come back home and lay in bed listening to a chorus of high pitched tones, I live in the countryside, very veery quiet place, and the quietness made it worse. As previous posters mentioned dim...

I'm not sure if it works with newer Pro Tools stuff because I am using PT 6.4 TDM, but if you want something like the Waves SSL plug but not deal with Waves, get Metric Halo ChannelStrip. It's is really awesome. Some of the best gating and EQ plug ins I have heard. They are just really smooth. The ...

I have two of these, one is a +DSP unit from the first batch they did and one is a 2D, non DSP unit. These two are IMHO the best AD/DA money can buy. I'm sure there's no other interface that has the flexibility of these units, except for their bigger sisters the ULN8 and the LIO. 8 channels of AD ea...

I remember back in my more nefarious days that H2O, one of the big audio software crack groups, claimed that writing the crack for Cubase 3 was so hard that they weren't going to bother doing it for 4. No idea if that is the case still, but it was pretty insane that they wrote an entire virtual USB...

10 Bits?

Hi all, A friend of mine has been asked to deliver some sounds for a product to be played back by a dedicated chip which only will be capable of 10bit or lower playback. This is because of cost issues. Now I thought that my trusty Barbabatch was capable of 10bit conversion but I was wrong, it can on...
