A kind soul reminded me about flickr so I have posted all of the images online at this link: http://www.flickr.com/photos/29051591@N07/ I will respond to everyone's emails individually but I just wanted to answer a few quick questions. I received a ton of emails about the Electra guitar. The guitar ...

I'll have pics tonight. I don't know how to embed them in the post so just email me and I'll send them to you. Also, just to clarify, none of the prices include shipping costs. Lastly, paypal is my preferred method of payment.

Just wanted to give it a bump as I have updated it with new items.

As many of you know I'm moving to NYC so I need to get rid of a few extra items. I tried to price everything to move but if you think something is a bit high let me know and I might budge a bit. SM Pro Audio PR8 Eight Channel Mic Pre - $50 Behringer Ultra-DI Pro DI4000 4 Channel Active DI - $50 Behr...

Joel, my apologies, I didn't mean to put it in the wrong forum. The reason I put it in gear was primarily because I wanted to know what recording rigs New Yorkers were using in their apartments. I know you have a fantastic studio and some day when I get some more material I would love to track some ...

wow. why the hell are you ditching chicago for NYC? i visited manhattan and the village, and i can't beileve people call such a place home. chicago's so much cleaner and cheaper for better shit all around! Hence, why I said, DONT The main impetus for my move is my girlfriend but I am a bit bored wi...

Thanks for all the replies, your insight has been really helpful. I'm thinking to start I'm just going to bring a laptop, my digi002 and a handful of electric instruments (guitar, bass, synth/controller). I have no problem going direct with everything but the guitar. I have never gotten anything hal...

I have decided to move to NYC and move in with my girlfriend. I haven't moved yet but we recently were there and found an apartment. While it is quite nice, it is also quite small (it's a 1 bedroom, 1 bath with living room/kitchen combo). Did I mention I'm sharing it with my girlfriend, who loves mu...

2 things before you make the leap: 1) Make sure your software is compatible with the new Macbook Pros. Although their are varying reports of people having success with 7.4, PTLE is still not supported in Leopard. 2) There have been reports of problems with the firewire chipset being used in new MacB...

I have the Yorkville's and must say that while I do really like them a lot, they are certainly not the best monitors out there. I haven't spent enough time listening to the KRK's to really form an objective opinion so I can't really compare the two. What I personally think is most important in picki...

I have an old 20 bit Echo Layla lying around I decided to finally part ways with. 8 in (10 with s/pdif), 10 out, midi and can be linked up with other units for additional I/O capability. I have the original CDs and will burn a copy of the beta drivers as well. $115 will get it shipped to your door. ...

Based on your post I'm assuming you want a reel to reel primarily for the sake of doing your band's record. While I love tape, it's sound, the way you have to work with it and the limitations (don't like that adjective but couldn't think of something better) it can impose on your recording sessions,...

Is it level setting, balanced cables, power conditioners? First and foremost, check your power. 60 cycle hum and poorly designed power supplies can infiltrate your audio signal inducing noise. Once you have ruled out power, check you cables and connections. Using good quality cables that are proper...

Are voice and acoustic guitars the only two things you ever want to record? I imagine not, which is why I would work on building a well rounded and versatile mic collection. Even if you never wanted to record anything else, you need to take into account the fact that all instruments not only have a ...

I don't know where you live but if you are patient you can usually find sm57's selling for as cheap as $50 used. I still don't really know what instruments you will be recording or your budget but having 2 AT4050's would fit your needs for a versatile setup. I'm not going to go into detail here, but...
