This is probably the evil way of dealing with this, but I'd just put in something cheap (that could potentially be used elsewhere later) and then replace it with a solid core door when the inspection was done. Another question...can you take off the door hardware entirely and leave it open for the i...

I'm definitely at that same point...While I definitely love my Trident (65), I've started mixing my band's current project in the box while we're doing our overdubs/vocals. The recall is invaluable. I figure at final mixdown, I'll use aux sends from the box to channels on the outside to access what ...

Kennedy Center Autotune...

I just got done watching the Dolly Parton portion of the Kennedy Center Honors and was floored by how damn obvious the autotune was on Shania Twain. It wasn't the subtle "I noticed it as an engineer" level of autotune. It was borderline robot. As far as I could tell, it wasn't present on any of the ...

I'm not a big fan of the "ends justifies the means" philosophy in life, but for recording it works just fine. The thing is that maybe the next time you work at getting the sound up front and then you have 2 ways to get to similar results. There's absolutely nothing wrong with knowing more than one w...

but won't that get you in trouble when you're trying to get back in the US? They don't ask what you're taking out...They only really care about what you're bringing in. I think the probability of Iceland's customs talking to US customs about individuals bringing a gift back and forth is pretty damn...

I have to agree...that is the highlight. He must be the songwriter/organizer or something.

When the elastics on my U195 spider mount gave out, I bought longish ponytail elastics at the drug store. It's worked since.

Johnny Cash's "A Boy Named Sue" contained a bleep that made the song more powerful, in my opinion. To each his own, but I found the bleeping in that song to be an unwelcome distraction to an otherwise powerful song. Besides, by today's standards, "Horse's Ass" wouldn't even warrant a bleep. That sa...

Wow...this post brings back memories of 1990 for me. Basically, you want to get 1/8" splicing tape. It's also a lot easier to get it right if you have a splicing block. They used to have all of this at Radio Shack, but now...I don't know. Just look for the dustiest corner of the store and you may lu...

Based on the physique of your average studio rat, you'd need at least 10 people to hoist a panel...But yeah, if I had a place for it, it'd be worth the effort.
