Yes. It is quite great.
Howling at the neighbors. Hoping they have more mic cables.

my partner Tim has one of those Telefunken USA M-80 dynamic mics. The thing sounds fantastic. Had to get one for myself. Mighty good sounding microphone.

JVC SVHS recorder

Post by ampguy » Fri Apr 26, 2013 7:03 pm

Originally designed for use with TV.

Uses Hi-Fi mode, for recording audio on the whole tape.

Can use SVHS tapes which have an extra hole in them, or can use regular VHS tapes by just pressing a button. It's called "ET" mode, which probably isn't as good as using an SVHS tape, but still sounds awesome.

Has a manual and remote control.

R and L input and output RCA jacks, including a set on the front of the unit.

CAD TSM411 instrument mic is a blowout at MF today - US$30.

Gets the usual "better'n a SM57" reviews, what makes me think it's be useable on toms, guitars, wallboard nails ...

Bought a Swart Atomic Space Tone. Nice portable amp that is loud enough to gig with and reasonable for the studio. I'm happy. It's replacing a AB165 Bassman and Victoria 2 x 12" which weren't really practical for me.

I also bought some plug-ins...not exciting I know. reFuse Lowender, Waves Aphex Exciter (on sale for $82 at Plug-In Discount, plus you get a $100 Waves voucher), Softube TSAR-1, and Eventide Omnipressor. I got them at really good prices on the KVR forum.

Today my brother brought our old Roland Delay to my mom's. While we were installing the folks air conditioner, we ran across a DBX163x that we forgot a friend gave us years ago. SCORE!
