Fixes for hard drive noise creeping into audio signal?

I'm using a hackintosh here at the studio. I find that regardless of whether my RME interfaces are plugged in to my console or not, the computer is somehow leaking crappy digital artifacts into...get this...the main bus of my console. This is not showing up on any of the I/O. The noise is slightly l...

Blast from the past. Just got 1500 caps and 500 op amps in from Mouser, getting ready to recap and rechip this old Trident 24. I did the master section and aux/echo section a while back. We'll be tackling the returns first, as they're most critical for mixing. But first, I finally implemented the Po...

If this goes unnoticed, I'll move it over to DIY...but it seemed like this was the best section for it!

SF Bay Area: Trade soldering for time at Shipwreck Studio

I'm about to dive into a full recap and rechip on my Trident 24 - 1,465 Nichicon UHEs, 546 Texas Instruments OPA134s. I already did the master section and the aux/echo section. If anyone would like to put in soldering time in exchange for studio time, PM me. The trade is basically going to be 15 hou...

Guitar splitter for overdubs - Palmer Triage or....?

I know there's a ton of A/B/Y boxes out there that will route your signal to two amps. Here's what I'm looking for for overdubs: 1) at least three buffered outputs (for DI and two amps, typically) 2) ability to mute each output 3) polarity reverse, ground lift and at least some rudimentary gain opti...

Mainly parts and wiring that are non-project-specific. I tend to get pretty Frankenstein with gear. Hence I end up with plenty of defunct equipment that can be pillaged.
