Re: Silica Gel desiccant packets in the studio?

I can't find the article but Dr Z (amp maker) recommends keeping them in the back of your combo amp or in guitar speaker cabinets. Moisture can drastically alter the way paper speaker cones perform. I used them to 'dry out' some speakers that had been in a overly humid environment. They come with so...

Re: I'm much happier now...

Good to hear it.

I've done it a couple times and have experienced the positives you mention and zero regrets.

Re: Kick drum: port hole or not?

I love the non port sound. The drum acts so much more like a 'drum'. The action you get from the pedal is really different too. I've got internal mics on some of my non ported kick drums. Mounted with the simple Gibraltor L bracket using existing lug screws. Mine have internal pads but a buddy I pla...

A Neil Young story as told to Otis Gibbs

I don't know if you guys watch Otis Gibbs' YouTube clips but I sat down with him last week when I was in Nashville and he got me to tell some stories. He put one of 'em up on his channel the other day about my experience at Neil's Broken Arrow Ranch with Nils Lofgren. I'm leaving it here if you'd li...

Re: Latest gear you've acquired.....

I've had a couple mix sessions w the UnFairchild 670m II As I said above, our main 2 mix compressor has been the CraneSong STC-8. In addition to other stereo comps we have a Manley Variety-Mu and a Chandler TG-1 that we've mixed through but since getting the CraneSong in around '03 it's been our mai...

Re: Latest gear you've acquired.....

That's the sweetness there, Roscoe! Please start a thread with your thoughts after having some time to get her going. Will do. I've only had one sort of commando session with it so far. Not much time to mess with it but it sounded really amazing on the drum bus. We've had the Crane Song STC-8 on ou...

Re: Triad Orbit quick release barrels

Much tighter fit than the Atlas. No play in them. A drastic improvement.

Studio websites?

You folks have any opinions on good looking studio websites that you've seen lately? I know a lot of folks use their socio-media sites (FB-Insta) for their studios. I do too but I know when I'm headed to someone else's studio I sure appreciate being able to see a comprehensive gear list and some inf...
