I think it's great for what it is. If it were anything else, who knows what any of us would think about it. It's all relative. Albums (by actual artists) are works of art. It's like saying "would the Mona Lisa look as good if it had more brown in it?" Yes, but to a large degree, the producer is res...

I have known / loved this album for years-- but I realize the only reason I like it is because I like the songs and the writing. Does anybody else feel like this album could have been A LOT BETTER? I don't know much about Norman Smith, but everything I read on the subject leads me to believe that he...

Hi -

I have a UA 2108 and a Drawmer 1960 that I just want checked out to make sure it's running properly, tubes, etc.

Thanks

I dunno about the console, but how did you get those characitures made?

Don't know which category this goes in...... Does anyone know of any eco-friendly/green studios (big or small) that have been built that rely on solar power/wind power/water power/whatever?

I've heard solar panels need 100% sun exposure (no shade whatsoever) for 9am to 3pm......would be interested to learn more.

I think it must be pretty tricky to get a loan for a studio these days.....take the following scenario, for example. Client A is applying for a loan for a recording studio. Anticipated revenue is $500 per day, investment requirement is at least $50,000. The only way to increase this (if the model is...

So there are a few new cool recording-related books out there.....First, there is one by Jeff Tousseau, whose written some articles for Tape Op too..... http://www.studioenvironments.com Got this and its great. Cool pics, tons of interviews.....great production value. Also, Heather Johnson of Mix ju...

Anyone?

You are overthinking this. Just get an Olympus DS2. Good quality, long recording times.

You don't need "broadcast quality" mics.
