And then there was the ?bleed? mic. When we were doing a rough vocal we noticed that Tom?s vocal mic was picking up some drums and giving it amazing sound overall. He was singing into the mic so we couldn?t use it, it would ruin it, so we put up another mic right near it. It was a SM58 or a 57, and...

Thanks guys for all the tips! Over the weekend I actually unearthed the manual that originally CAME with my specific multimeter, and that turned out to be the "rosetta stone" for me as it was relevant to the specific dial and inputs to that model. All worked out well and I now have my very first ful...

To check on you pre you touch the two points that are suppose to have flow with the probes, one on each point. If the MM beeps that means the conn...

Hey All, I already posted this in DIY too but haven't caught a lot of fish so Joel I hope it's cool that I post here too... I'm nearly finished on my very first 7th Circle Audio kit...the API-style preamp. Everything's going great but I'm at the point now where I'm supposed to start using my digital...

In CD archetect, use the volume handles to raise or lower the volumes of the songs to make them all the same. It works best when you lower the volume of the loud ones to match the quieter ones. Hey Jay: I think what he's asking is if there's a way to get the RMS levels looking roughly the same from...

Well that was very jaded-sounding...can you explain that comment a bit for us tourists?

Will do. No indication of that from Craig, though so I'm still calling it a plan for now if anyone wants to help a brotha out.

Hey All, My post-conference plane leaves real late Monday night. So, on Monday morning I've made an appointment to do some long-winded treasure hunting in the basement/attic of the Chicago store with a flashlight and stuff. Wanted to do that since I first saw the splendor of it last year. Craig says...

Sahsa is a great and knowledgeable dude...it would behoove all to have his presence at the Hilton.

LET'S DUNK PHIL SPECTOR! What? he's busy? Doing what? Oh. Damn. Too bad...would have loved to see that wig floating on the surface of the water.
