The guy that thinks Bob Dylan can't sing, I don't know if you are taking the p##s or not, but if not well you have really missed the point. What I got from the Bob Dylan comment (whether it was intended or not), is that Dylan does NOT have what alot of people would consider to be a good voice, BUT ...

Yes, I would like to know more about this as well. My mastering knowledge is limited (pun intended), and this sounds like something I would actually like to know about. I'm imagining (without trying it) taking a stereo mix. Putting, say, the left channel panned dead center, then taking the right cha...

Wha' happened?!?

The post has already been flagged and removed before I got to it.

Dang it! I was looking for some early morning laughs that DIDN't involve beveled edges, light scatter, or green cd's. :tear: :rolleyes:

I've never recorded alto flute myself, but I've played on a couple sessions with one before. one session had a u87, one had a u67. I thought the 67 sounded better, but they were completely different studios in different continents to different recording formats, so it's hard to say with any objectiv...

The crazy thing is that I bought that kit from a friend of my sister's for $400. And it came with a set of bronze Gretch Timbales... ...as well as 16" old stamp K HiHats and an 18" K crashy ride from the same era. I recently sold the kit (sans timbales and cymbals) for $600 (still a good deal for th...

I'd go with the whole cat. But then I'm big on cats these days. Yeah, but what kind of tape is better for adhering an entire cat to a drum head, duct? gaffer? board tape? :lol: Seriously, though, if you can't get a cat, for what ever reason, the cat hair thing might actually work. and yeah, if the ...

It's not impossible to get new calfskin heads that are pre-mounted, but they ain't cheap. The times I've gotten old drums with 20 year old calfskins on them, they've split pretty quickly, being that they tend to have sat in various basements, storage rooms and attics with a WIDE range of humidity le...

My God, man. You're killing me... I already have a mildly glitchy tube organ in storage 'cause I don't have room for it right now, so I'd really be pushing it. And you're only a few hours drive... Shit, I can't do it. You're a good person, though. Hopefully someone will be able to appreciate this fi...

I've got an LA-610, but the pre side looks the same as the 2-610. I also used a Solo-610 last year a bunch that I'd borrowed from a friend. I have to say, that I use the little EQ shelves (as well as the EQ *bump* options on the input selector) on the LA-610 more than I thought I would. Granted, it ...

I once recorded a record where the band wanted the sound of hundreds of people chanting. All we had available was a group of 8 people. Fortunately we were working in a studio with a rather large and very lively live room. I recorded a take with the 8 people chanting and on the second take, I played...

Alot of times I find people use the term "electric" to signify that they use an acoustic instrument, plugging it's shitty pickup into some effects. I had that done to me unwittingly when I was gigging with this singer a while back. I was playing Banjo and Mandolin sometimes through a delay, morley w...
