Re: For themaya's is recording sessions straight thru,

I usually keep the original files as is. Then, as I mix through each song, I make a new DAW session file with that songs name on it, plus the order in which it is in, to make it easy on me. Say, a ten song concert: "Billy The Kid and Friends - Song 1 - Your Momma is a Tramp" Or something along those...

Re: Reco me some loud cans

Look at some Sony MDR 7506. Unless you have yuge honking ears, then some AKG like K240.

And then, drive them with a nice and loud headphone amplifier. Even a Samson S-phone will do nicely.

2x AMEK 9098 mic pre w eq $950 each - SOLD.

Hi All, Hurricane Otis came and went, and completely ruined a business thing I have in Acapulco. Due to that, I am forced to sell a couple of my mic preamp / EQs. These were Neve's favorite "no compromise" design. These two I bought used a couple of years ago, and need a bit of work, mainly recappin...

Re: "always on" talkback

Whenever I have lots of musicians in a separate recording room, I put up a large OMNI mic where it can pickup everyone. I do mute it when recording, but then it comes on always when not recording. If it is famous people though, I tend to run that omni mic into a separate recorder all the time, to ca...

Re: 8ch. ADAT optical to AES w/ SRC included?

RME made one, maybe you can find one used?

It does exactly that: convert ADAT to AES and viceversa.

I always try to buy either from a known seller, or someone who has good ratings. Preferably local to my country too.

Re: What is this heavy Gold Star Studios Glockenspiel sound?

Nice! You nailed it, that's the sound. BUT, the one in Logic has a weird modulation to it and doesn't sound quite right, it's like out of tune. I can't quite figure out how to change it round in the sampler plugin that it comes from. any ideas? It likely has an effect on it. Logic Pro (Apple) love ...

Re: The dreaded Pro Tools upgrade

I pay half price for my PT update. How? I only buy it every other year. Also, by waiting that long, it feels like they actually added useful stuff to it. And bugs. More yummy colorful bugs. ;) I'm curious how that works. for me, the "support" is $199/yr, and if I were to let it lapse, it was going ...

Re: Monitor/Center Section

Do you have a tech that could take the center section only, or do a house visit? It might be expensive, but worth it. I have been using my Allen & Heath GL2800-32 center section forever, well, since 2008 when I bought it new. Rock solid console. If you have a 500 series bucket, I'd recommend you ge...
