Hey Nick, thanks for the response. I would have to imagine that's what they have going on. Would make the most sense anyway.

Hey guys, I'm thinking about picking up a 896mk3 to run along with my current 896HD. If the effects in cuemix are in use are they sent to tape by default or can you set it up to just have a bit of reverb sent to the performer's cans while maintaining a dry signal to the software? Also, any insight t...

Hey all, Just picked up a Soundcraft Series S200 8/4 at a surplus sale. I dig this little console and am having a good time checking it out. Anyone use these before, any tips, tricks, mods of any sort? I've checked out a couple posts mentioning recapping and thought I would post a topic here to see ...

Awesome thread guys. One other one that comes to mind is recording the springs to the old style pull down attic access ladder. Those things are usually pretty old, rusty and creaky. I created a ship running aground effect combining that with pulling a cinder block across a wood floor and a few other...

Hey guys,
Thanks for the advice, went with a DPDT switch like you suggested Jabe. I appreciate the input guys, thanks again.

All the best,
Evan

Hey guys, I'm fixing an intermittent A/B stompbox and plan on using a 3PDT footswitch however I'm a bit confused on which of the 9 lugs to use. I've used them before in building footswitches but had diagrams to show wiring. The box is as simple as it gets, passive, no LEDs, 3 TS jacks (1 in, 2 out),...

For me Sonar has done the trick project after project. I started using Cakewalk about 12 years ago and have just kept with them ever since. I used DP and Pro Tools a bit in college and got to know Tracktion fairly well in the past few years however I'm back to Sonar now about 98% of the time. I main...

I mod'd all of mine into Oktava MK-319s

Recording The Beatles- great info and excellent photos. This Is Your Brain On Music along with The World In Six Songs has some pretty nifty insight in it. I also like to pick up old books on Recording from the 60's or earlier. Always some cool info and great diagrams etc. One I've wanted to pick up ...

I'd check back with it, I just clicked on the link and it worked, , might be doing some work as we speak on the site. Anyway, it was through that site that I learned they were designated as "RCA Knobs" so you may be able to find some elsewhere if the Leeds site decides to not play nice.

Hey Pat, For the sake of simplification have you tried to take the Samson out of the equation for the time being and just run the EMU Out L/R --> dBX --> Emu In L/R then run the compressor's out into my pre-amp Since you are operating at a line level with the pre-recorded material do you need to run...

Hey Derrick,
Leeds Radio has some but their site is being a bit wierd at the moment. They are RCA Style knobs. The Leeds link is www.leedsradio.com/parts-knobs

Hope this helps!

I've used the MDR-7506 cans for years and really dig them. This is a great post, I bought my first pair of 7506s about 10 years ago and just got another new pair this year however I like to hear positive feedback on the HD 280s from you guys. I'll be needing to get an additional pair at some point s...

Hey Kingmetal, It's been said already but I'll chime in with saying the original M-Tron is fantastic. I've used it a ton over the past probably 5-6 years and really dig it. Not sure how it is shipping these days but I certainly recommend getting the additional Tape Banks if it doesn't ship with them...

Hey Trodden, Bumping the buffer size up a tad could remedy the issue by allowing more time essentially for the computer to process plugs, audio playback and tracking at once. However, I've found with my setup overdubbing with the latency/buffer maxed out to allow plugs to do their thing can still ca...
