I set this up about 2 months ago and it's worked great. The Futon is lite weight and has cloth on one side and vinyl on the other. The zipper ends allow for just about any boom end of a mic stand to ...

The Hygiene issue stopped GC and other stores from the usual 30 day trial so I started asking to have several mics setup in advance before going down to A-B-C them. I did this with the TLM103, Blue D ...

Very funny Dave. I was one of the first to buy the Royer R121. Low serial number. Never regretted that purchase. At NAMM they offered to give it an upgrade (+5 db) and any clean up needed. I em ...

Davedog, You always have great recommendations on cost effective mics. I'm surprised you didn't critique the FatHead he mentioned. I have a Royer R121 (not stage) and I absolutely love this Mic bu ...

I just posted this (vocal baffle) on the Acoustics discussion. I know some will laugh at this but when you consider how simple, cheap and stable this is you may want to try it. Much in-room leakage ...

Having my share of Auralex and steadman pop screens I've been thinking more about isolation within open rooms. With a fair number of padded office room dividers and moving pads I was still looking f ...

I tried the ribbons. OUTSTANDING. I used very close mic positions with a pair of Rode Tube NTK's, one just below middle C and the other up top. To reduce clicking noise, I placed them horizontally ...

It's been a while since I posted here but I still visit often and always learn something new. Having built this studio in 2000 I have finally reached a point where I have captured the sound I want o ...

This is a constant battle and I am fortunate enough to own a Lexicon MXP-1, an Eclipse and a TC4000. The Lex PCM 91 and the TC4000 are in a separate category. These are PURE reverbs, not multi-FX ...

I've been using the Cascade v55 vacuum tube for about a year and it's replaced mics in my cabinet at twice the price including Neumann and AKG.

It retails for $499 and has a 1.38 inch gold sputtere ...

Even though I used the Senn E604's for over a year I can't agree with the assessment as a studio recording mic. I think they're fantastic for live use but if you A/B them against any nunmber of mics ...
