I'm a long-time Mac user (not trying to convert anyone, just a disclaimer), and I mainly use ProTools & Digi hardware. However, on occasion I've use the MOTU gear and have been quite pleased! The 896 mkII is pretty great, and I like it much better than the mkIII. Likewise, the 828 is pretty solid es...

Not to intentionally hijack this post... BUT, I've been waiting for Mac to consider reintroducing something with multiple FW ports, but it doesn't look like that will be happening. So, with the release of these new iMac's I'm thinking the time may be right to replace the ol' PowerBook G4 workhorse. ...

I have some stock MIM tele pickups for a standard Mexican Fender. I took them out a while ago, and they've sat in their bubble wrap since. Asking $45 shipped & Paypal (continental US). *Willing to trade for a great working/ unmodified MXR Distortion + A pair of GFS brand (Guitar Fetish) "Modern Vint...

I realize this is a pretty odd posting, and probably the wrong place for it, but I promise to remove it as soon as my issue is solved. I recently sold my BLUE "Robbie the mic pre" and sent it in the mail via UPS through my work (I work at a University). Anyway, long story short - I think they accide...

PM sent.

I don't know if this is the appropriate place, but I'm wondering if it would be possible for anyone to post a link to places where these chips can be purchased? I must admit I've order my share of wrong IEC's so it would be reassuring to know I'm getting the right ones. If necessary, maybe someone c...

So I pulled the trigger on the MP20 - I found one with the stock Jensen's, shipped for $250. I don't think it's perfectly new, but it was still in the original packaging. In any case, I looked around at the upgrade options and I'll definitely be performing some of them. Not to turn this post into a ...

I've read quite a few reviews online regarding the Presonus MP20, and I know that most people tend to think highly of it. I am curious if anyone here can compare it to a Focusrite ISA 428? I have the 428, as well as a UA 2-610, and the BLUE "Robbie the mic pre". I'm looking to add a few more channel...

Ideally, I'd like to use the express slot for hooking up my external drives. I'd likely use the 800 port for the 003. I don't like to daisy chain because I've had quite a issues in the past, even while tracking at 44.1, and I'm hoping to do more at 88.

ctm, Thanks for the link - I've heard refurb's are the way to go. I have a few buddies who work at the Mac Stores in the area (several in Seattle), and they all rave about them. It looks like the FW800 + Express slot will be the ticket! Now I just have to scrape the cash together while they still ha...

While I realize I am opening myself up for blatant Mac vs. PC rips, I will proceed with the following scenario: I have been using a Mac for years. They may be the best, they may not, I just like them and they've never let me down. However, my current recording setup is made to be mobile, and centere...

So I went ahead and ordered some of the "shock" clips from Naiant. I'm sure they'll get their share of use. Hopefully they're tight enough for the 451... time will tell I suppose. Thanks for the input. *update: I got in three of the "shockmount" clips. I'm not thrilled with them, but they're certain...

So after tracking an entire 5 song EP for a band, stuck with just two headphone mixes I finally received my special ordered HP6E (apparently there's a new model number) in the mail. I just racked it up and wired it to the patchbay. Quite simply, I'm really impressed. The build quality is great - def...

Thanks everyone for the advice! After hearing a few ideas, I was a bit nervous about the "bleeding" rubber dye, so I went online and found a great deal on some wall hangers: http://www.edmwi.com/home/edm/page_679_25/lot_2___wall_hanger_guitar_stands_type_54___super_.html What I didn't realize at the...
