hey settle down now! naw for reals though. I guess I expected everyone to chime in with their fond memories of Tascam. Spill a little out for our homies and so on. But it's kind of slowed down a little around here lately. What happened, everybody get jobs? I guess I'll register my gratitude to Tasca...

we have TT jackpanels with the twinned connectors at the TV station I work for.

the h4n will do 4 tracks, but two of those are going to come from the built in mics (which are ok...)or through the camera mic 1/8th jack. So it wont be what you are looking for if you are thinking of pulling a 4 buss mix off of a sound board. I used to use a 4 track cassette deal that was rack moun...

"Hi Florb. Thank you for your interest. It is in great condition and is a pre-Gibson era model."

Nice, very Douglas Adams.

I've owned one for about 18 years. It is an autoformer that only has about half a dozen taps. So it will make audible sounds when it is "riding" the input voltage, in an attempt to reach its target 117 VAC. I have heard mine make a persistent low freq hum when there was a ground issue or other wirin...

Anyone who recalls Opcode, Tobias, KRK, or any other once great brands, will know this is the death knell.

I made the switch to console-less recording about 3 years ago. At the time I was really trying to get the cleanest possible signal and the shortest signal path. it did open up the sound a bit to disintermediate the mixer form the signal path. And my MOTU 8282MKII has front panel knobs for main out a...

nice, thanks. That is what I thought. As with tube power amps, changing things is constrained by the power supply. I was just hopping that adcom had used the same PS in both. I may just keep it stock for a while longer. It still sounds immensely better than the SR power amp I had used before. Sure i...

jeez I would love to get back the hearing I had when I was younger. Before I ever started playing drums or bass in loud punk rock bands, or before I started going to loud hardcore, punk and metal shows. I swear I used to hear harmonics in door squeaks and other mundane objects that I do not anymore....

For those wishing more bass extension in their Adcom amps, replacing the gain set 47 uf cap with a 100 or 220 uf/100V cap with quality film bypass caps will remove all the phase shift and extends bandwidth to below 2 hz. For greater bass energy, replace the 10,000 uf caps in a 545 with 22,000 uf ca...

and tehn I keep seeing Soundcraft Ghost mixers come up. Kinda bigger in size than I planned for, but they are cool. right?

I'll have to check out the A&H GL stuff. I don't really need the firewire either, but it might be nice to have an extra set of digital ins and outs, assuming i could run it with my ufx. problem that a some folks run into when using multiple interfaces is that even when they are synced by wordclock ...

It's the same electronics as the GL2400.

Cheers

they differ only in the number of groups?

I've already got a pretty decent firewire box. If I was going to get anything along those lines I would be loooking for thunderbolt or USB3.0. Firewire seems to be going the way of SCSI and AGP. I am partial to the A&H boards. Out of all the budget boards I've used for live sound those and the Sound...

not so much a mackie price point, but I do admire the Mackie form factor. The 1604 is a great size. The Mackie 8 buss mixers are even pretty decent for functionality I guess I am looking at an A&H if I buy new. They have some reasonably priced 16 and 24 channel SR boards that have enough inserts and...
