I've always been a big believer in treatments. Our ceiling is 100 year old concrete and super hard to get any fittings into. Looks nice! I feel your pain about drilling into a reinforced concrete ceiling!!! I think I went through like 2 dozen masonry bits with a hammer-drill hanging 4 large clouds ...

I'd have to assume there is a lower limit (distance from the sidewall) that this will become a bad idea? As in: Most bedroom monitoring environments where the 1st sidewall reflection is less than 10ms or so (and almost equal in amplitude to the direct sound)? The quote specifically mentioned "less t...

I feel ya. Have you looked at the online video tutorials for Totalmix? Once you get it, you will really get it (A light will eventually illuminate in your head!) :) But you really don't even need to touch TM - I believe Preset #1 defaults where Software Out #1 feeds Hardware Out #1, and so on (a 1:1...

Perhaps I'm missing the point here, but why not just pan the entire mix in your daw to the side of the phones you want to monitor with? Solves the bleed from unused side problem. That's a great idea. Unfortunately, my headphone amp doesn't have a pan knob. I use Cubase. I -can- pan the mix left/rig...

I think the key sentence there is, "Flip the polarity anywhere in the signal chain." Same should apply to the channel mute. Somewhere in your DAW or interface control there's prolly a solution that takes only a few mouse clicks once you find it. Very cool pair of ideas BTW. Makes me consider headph...

My guitar player just headed off to North Texas to finish up his degree, and took his tasty 80's Marshall SS combo with him (Master Lead Combo IIRC? 1 Channel, 30Watts, 12" Celestion). To fill the void, I snapped up a modern Marshall DSL40C all-tube combo. This thing is pretty sweet for under $700 I...

Need to address this statement :) : I run a RME RayDat on my live PC, and unfortunately, they let me down with no drivers past XP for my original hammer fall 96/52. That's a fail to me . I can't speak to other brands. You can run the DIGI9652 under W7-32 Bit no problem. Just can't go to 64-Bit W7 wi...

I believe the problem is not drift (offsets *should* remain constant for a given converter - excluding jitter - more on that at the end :) ), but the inability to EXACTLY compensate for the AD/DA's delays. A Converters' inherent oversampling results in delays that are not whole samples (due to said ...

Even when dealing with "Sample Accurate" timing in a DAW, the AD/DA chips will often times have delays that are NOT EXACT MULTIPLES OF 1 SAMPLE! The oversampling happens at many times the base samplerate, so ending up with a nice round result with no remainder is unlikely. I believe a few chips *mig...

Lol! Fighting fire with bass! I've done that plenty of times: The Jamroom PA can easily "extinguish" a lighter in a few choice areas (dances like crazy and then gets blown out), and my truck system would have also no problem doing the same :) (I do like it loud!) I guess this is a similar concept wi...

With a 240VAC Input, you'd get 141VAC out. Too high for anything expecting 120VAC (even with some tolerance assumed). 220VAC input would still end up with around 130VAC out. Still too hot for me :) This specific unit seems specifically designed for 208VAC in to 120VAC out :( Unless there are multipl...

After yearning for a good small set of "Monitor B" speakers and being totally unsatisfied with the Equator D5's Hype (actually gave my pair of D5's to a buddy!), I decided to try another pair of small monitors to itch my scratch. After reading so many glowing reviews on the Sonodyne SRP400 4.5" near...
