The fan is mighty loud but adds a certain lofi quality that I don't try to hide. The keys did make an annoying click until I taped ...

Re: What did you work on today? 11/11/04

I decided to forget about a song, the mixing of which was driving me mad. I moved on to another tune threw up an old birdcage on my standel and hit record. From the frustration of the last tune, I was not expecting much, but...hey, this sounds great! Recording is fun afterall. The rest of the day wa...

Re: Analog vs. Digital Debate: Over?

Music is a transient phenomenon that cannot be captured. Music is alive and live. Recordings are just cheap ass immitations for suckers and losers.

Monitor AB switch

I need to make to make a switching unit for two sets of speakers off one amp. Can I use a simple DPDT switch? Or is there a special switch for this purpose? Thanks.

Re: who knows their spring reverb mechanics ?

I have wondered the same things. I was thinking of trying out different springs of differing qualities(length,irregularity,material,etc) And what about making a plate reverb? ...

Re: Calling all Space Echo owners!

I have another space echo question - Has anyone modified a 201 to get only the delayed signal(s) and not the original in the mix? I use my 201 as an outboard effect and love the quality but am getting a slight hashy eq/phasey sound when I combine it with the original. What I am trying to say is that...

Re: Anyone here want to leave the country? (or lives in anot

I understand why tempers are flaring, but we should remember where the anger sould be directed - not at those of us with similar political views, but rather at the people/corporations raping the country.
