Re: For themaya's is recording sessions straight thru,

If you mean something like a live recording where it's a bunch of different songs in a long take, many DAWs give you the option to use the original track files, and just make some new references to them. It's often a dialog that pops up is you try to copy material from one session into another - "co...

Re: Reco me some loud cans

This might also be an application where a more capable headphone amp will make a obvious difference?

space saver stuff
I'm sure there's room for some extra 500 modules in those cargo shorts, too! :P

Cable stables is a genius move.
One which I'll be borrowing.

Actually useful Amazon junk?

After the other thread asking whether the $80 "C414" from Amazon was a useful mic, it leaves me questioning what's actually useful from Amazon? Amazon seem to have fully alibabaized - lots of imported stuff from brands we've never heard of (What's with all of the 5-letter, app-caps names?), and lots...

SM7db? Wow!

I just saw the first ads for this thing - I like the idea.

It's an SM7b with an onboard preamp, licensed from Cloud.

Squarely hits a certain segment of the market, and costs less than an SM7 + Cloudlifter.

Re: Cheap cheap mics? PROAR/Bai Fei Li C414?

That GDIY thread answers the important question: it's an electret condenser capsule, not a real back polarized one. With that funny perforated brass halo. Doesn't mean it can't be used as a microphone - again, on the GDIY thread, they say it wounds pretty good. It would fall over in a hearbeat for m...

Re: In-ear Monitors (IEMs)

I'm currently using Westone UM Pro 20's. Dual balanced armature drivers. They revised the cable maybe 7 years ago, and the revised one is more comfortable & form fitting over my ears than the previous style was. I use them with comply foam tips, which are some sort of memory foam. They fit like a de...

Re: Best drum heads for general recording

Lots of good advice above. I've got Renaissance Ambassadors on the toms of one of my kits, clear Ambassadors on another, with clear Ambys or Diplomats on the bottoms of both. Snares usually get a coated Amby top, clear Amby or Dip on the bottom. Diplomats aren't as easy to find as they used to be. K...

Re: Drummers Headphones?

The pair I keep around for myself are ancient Koss K6's. They're kinda chunky in a late 70's way, and seal fairly well without being too heavy. I got my first set of them for a dollar at a garage sale when I was in middle school, which I used until they literally fell apart (after years of drummer s...
