I have the first version, and it has more PSU related noise in the 3rd and 4th channels. So much so in the 4th that you could not do voiceover work with something like an SM7. I sent my first one back thinking there was a problem. I understand the later versions dealt with some of this PSU noise, bu...

This tape machine with this amp is in the Gates Radio Co. catalog from 1960. The amp IS the full electronics set for the transport. So, yes, together as a set only. If it was a military spec, then they would all have to be the same in basic appearance, layout, and function. In this case it may just ...

The point of the guitar analogy is that they do okay, and they are high impedance, which is 100's of times more prone to interference than low impedance. High impedance sources like shorter runs because of cable capacitance. Low impedance sources overcome cable capacitance much more greatly than hig...

Sounds like the Shure's are now U pads. Todays general school of thought is: 150 ohm mic wants to see 1500 ohm input, which is a 10:1 ratio, and is thus described as a bridging input, as opposed to a 1:1 matching input (150 ohm mic feeding true 150 ohm preamp) which causes a 6db loss of level. Take ...

This balancing thing drives me nuts. Leave the poor RNC alone. Buy something vastly more expensive if you want your $ taken from you in a fit of paranoia. Look, we all plug hi-impedance guitars and amps into 20 foot unbalanced cables all the time, with no problems. That's at least 100 times more lik...

Lots of people make comments about input pads changing the sound. In reality, you can use your mic with an input pad in some instances, or you can't use your mic, so it seems like a moot point to me. Make yer record! There are (at least) these things to consider: First off, any input pad with attenu...

I also managed to avoid ever paying for that piece-of-#^%$ DAT format years ago. Never owned one. you do own 5 adats though... :) Have you ever had adats repaired? It's cheaper to buy spares. Especially if you plan on playing back old sessions, you still need them. I'll argue that ADAT was a better...
