So, this thread has become the new "Off the Wayside" forum?

Anyway, fixed the link, the file had an apostrophe in it, which angered phpBB. It's here.

Well, I wouldn't say that.....I'm working here. Do you have any idea how long it takes to reality check an entire internet's worth of BBCode?

Well based on my calculations (which were largely based on wanting a beer, and therefore pulling a number out of my ass) 47,032.34 man-years.

However, if you account for the fact that there's about a billion people adding more BBCode to the internet every day, and just you checking it, I'd imagine that I have no idea how to figure out a reasonable answer.

The answer, therefore, is 42. I leave the units to others.

Ha! I do! Economical sound recording.....I like it too! I mean why rent an 87 just to record some hot chick. Who cares?

Right? That's what you meant too?

Of course that's what I meant. It was not an innuendo. I don't joke around when it comes to pro audio. Whore.

Enough's Enough

Everything but the cello was recorded with a Unidyne III 57.
Nice tune! I really like the acoustic guitar sound, I've found some very nice darker guitar tones using a 57 through a good pre, this reminds me of them. What kind of pre's did you use.
