Good lord. Who works in the morning? the guy that tracks a sketch late at night and halfway through realizes if he starts a fresh take he can have a final cut before his first class...and then ends up skipping class because twiddling the mix seems much more educational than listening to a prof who ...

3 covers, obviously, and my sincere apologies for the sound of "your eyes" but it was one of those practice tape things that just never did happen right again.

Ok, but you can't put a ribbon mic in front of a kick drum. Trust me, I've tried. put a ribbon on the beater just this morning, about 8" back and angled from snare side to pick up some rattle, and it's fitting perfect with the bass track i'm tweaking to sound like a tuba. yeah, i know, you said in ...

late to the thread, but going back to that high hats thing (is that a pun?) - plenty of beginning drummers i've known like 'em high, and then after about two or three years they start dropping 'em down and down until they're right over the snare...and then the last guy i recorded (who's been doing i...

yeah, let me be clear: i'm not an any way implying the price change is unfair - i've heard plenty of folks here and elsewhere complain about the little arm doohickeys that were found on the previous version. The guy improved his product, and improvements cost - which is exactly the argument behind g...

so, months of scraping together change for a pair of 46 cinemags and now just when i'm ready to commit, i see they've upped their prices - and yeah, there's a nice shockmount included and all, but damn! so i checked out the 23 again, and see their not offering the tranny upgrades anymore - what to d...

erm, care to do a schem with cap values for us DIYers?

what flavor?

someone mentioned, a few pages back, the analogy of technological development to natural selection, and that has indeed been true for a majority of the time humans have been on earth - flint knapping techniques, types of projectile weapons, animal husbandry, garment manufacture, etc,etc, gradually e...

Hope this isn't derailing the thread, but i'm dealing with somewhat similar issues in a current project: a three piece laborcore group i recorded a few weeks ago in their basement (the space was 12'widex7'highx40'deep - i thought it would be nasty, but it actually seemed to put a really cool vibe to...

Perry and Kingsley, yeah, wow, good stuff. First found out about them from RE/Search...the cd offered by that label is a best of. Then a year or so later i was digging through an abandoned house and found all kinds of old 1/4" reels, one of which just so happened to be "the in sound..." As far as Sm...

i hope that means its a good thing i've never had a music lesson in my life :wink: Seriously, i agree 100%. the thing that led me astray in your first post, was the statement that slang enabled one to "get by." But to flip that into what you just said, yeah, maybe "getting by" on slanging your six o...

like a hifi misery jeans, maybe
what's up with the uberloud tambo on king...?

I see it as kind of like speaking a language -- you can speak slang (rock,blues,etc), and get by and have a good time, even if you're not a theoretical master of the language. If people look down on you, fuck them. No offense man, i usu. enjoy reading your posts. BUT As a linguist (working on my ma...
