I loved it!

I'm in the middle of purchasing/restoring a 1971 Ampeg B25b with matching Ampeg 2 x 15" cab. I figured that if I'm going to play bass in a band that I should do so in style. And with back pain.

Sending PM for a Philly buddy regarding the Harrison.

Apogee Duet, hands down.

I can't imagine ever mixing on a paid-per-song basis.

* Rheem Kee Bass analog synth - 325

That is a SWEET price for the Kee Bass. I'd be all over this if I didn't just buy one last fall.

Buying an ADAT today is akin to purchasing a fax machine. Analog tape is cool. It's also full of headaches. Good digital with the right front end will sound amazing. Spend the cash on room treatment for accuracy, maybe a single really nice microphone for vocals, acoustic instruments, etc, and a nice...

Grab a Tascam 38, or TSR-8, plus a small mixer like a Mackie Onyx (affordable, good preamps, 16-channels at least), and have at it. Looking at like a $1200 investment. Tape will be 1/2" and end up a bit pricey, but it will sound better than a Tascam 424 4-track (which you could also get for like und...

I have the MBP connected to an OWC drive via FW800, and then I come out of that drive's FW400 port to my MH2882, which is also daisy-chained to a MOTU 828mk2. The drive is simply for backups, sometimes for VIs or samples (rarely these days). So the interfaces are running FW400, the drive is running...

I am running backups and audio via FW 800 (which are running at FW400 speeds due to both FW400 and FW800 using the same FW800 port. Unless you are routing FW 800 devices THROUGH FW400 ports, using both FW800 and FW400 devices on a single FW800 bus does not slow down the bus to 400MBits. FW800 and F...

After my 2011 MBP shit the bed this week, I'm contemplating grabbing a quad-core Mac Mini as a backup (I am 100% freelance between print production and audio). Good to know that folks are using them for pro audio. My only issue is that I am used to my MBP's expresscard slot, which I have loaded with...

One of the bands that I play in, Northern Arms, has released our first single off of our debut record. http://northernarms.bandcamp.com/track/what-youve-got-on This was recorded and mixed by Jeff Zeigler (Kurt Vile, The War on Drugs). I recorded nearly half of the record, and play lap steel on two s...

http://www.cambridge-mt.com/MixingSecrets.htm I highly recommend this book before throwing a ton of money down a rabbit hole in an attempt to chase things that you may or may not know how to attain. It is an excellent resource and has really changed things for me in the past 2 years. A lot of the D...

Bumping this thread because this book has taught me a lot and I feel that it's an excellent read for anyone starting out or looking to improve things.
