try a studiomaster... 'The cool thing about those older boards is that they really impart a character to the sound, which i like since everything is sounding so clean these days. It's the main reason i keep my old desk around.' amen - everything that would suck about the studiomaster i have is actua...

'I think it must be very hard to get a mono mix to not sound busy or cluttered or muddy.' man - it really helps to mix like this in mono...well, it helps me. a couple nights ago was the first time i actually set up only one speaker on a tracking date...i had decent headphones too...but lordy stereo ...

'Plus, I don't think either of us (you, bigtoe, and I) have the physics chops to answer the question of how this works. That's why I'm asking it, and why you didn't answer it.' figure out the question you're asking...and we'll go from there. it's not all that hard...do you want an equation? yes wron...

'Especially useful is the table that shows the effective coverage of different stereo mic angles. For those who are good at wave mechanics and acoustics math/physics, anyone care to elaborate on this? ' get a protractor? it's not that hard...and even then the mic factors into it...not just the angle...

'Dont start talking like a quasi intellectual jerkoff because you know how to align a tape machine. Be fun to hang out with.'

i love mine - had it for 10 years now....i just tracked and mixed through one...i was totally shocked at how good it sounded...just don't hit it so hard... the kick and snare in particular sounded really really cool. mix through another board though and you are happy...not the easiest top end to con...

"This upsets me because I fear they will release a subpar product, and I care about this band and their records." do the best you can but this will drive you absolutely nuts... i find they make the record they want to make not matter what - you can beg and moan and cajole and pitch in time and money...

i do every other weekend with the step chilluns...with gal and kids and recording you do not have time to breathe...my desk job is my holiday at times...worth it but flipping tiring... i remember driving to the daycare on like 45 minutes sleep and getting lost...i had made the trip a hundred times.....

you know same with cle, bobby - yer right...i remember back in the 80's a little ...different studio scene for sure...

recording is the hoola hoop.

Mike

They are. In my city there are more recording studios than ever. I mean EVER. see but i bet most of these are home recording guys throwing their nets out...not necessarily studios up to the task. big difference... all of the folks i record record themselves in one way or another...always have...the...
