Please share any comparisons you've done between the UA LA-2A and Warm Audio WA-2A seen below. Looking at the guts of the WA-2A, it looks pretty clean, not exactly the same as the originals but it appears to all be there. I wonder how it sounds? Compares?

I just got my hands on an Antelope Zen Studio today.. Cool unit.. very easy to use.. I'll be comparing it to a M audio Profire 2626 and Behringer Ada 8200 through an ancient RME digiset that was sold by Steinberg back in the day. So far.. I've just had a chance to listen to some speaker test...

Hey guys, I need a mic for my home studio as I'm starting recording covers - different genres (pop, rock, metal, country, jazz). I've been researching and two mics are my Top 2 choices - MXL v67 and sE X1. I already own SM57 and have an idea of using both SM57 and that new mic I buy for...

Hello, Im Don Jaye. I want my vocals to be crystal clear with a little warmth. - I have a apogee duet 2 going into Logic Pro - avantone c12 These two are not getting me the professional sound im looking for. I will ONLY be using this chain for vocals and my budget is 2,000. I was thinking of...

I'm doing a few tests to see what sounds better. In your opinion which do you like better fidelity wise. It's not an exact test as it's not the same performance , just looking for opinions on which sounds better.

I don't have a mac, so Garageband may not be in the cards for me. I've been hearing good things about Mixcraft, so I just wanted to see how it stacks up. Then I spose I just need a midi keyboard and someway to plug my guitar and keyboard in, correct? Like a preamp or something?

Can someone who uses Nero Express 6 or higher tell me how to follow the instructions found on this page: http://www.freedom-to-tinker.com/?p=946 The problem is that the version of nero used in that page is an older version and I am having trouble following through on the instruction after a...

The prices are spectacularly different, but what about the quality. I'm sure the Lynx is great, but I've only heard one comment about the Echo which was very complimentary. Anyone out who has used both?

I apologize if this has been discussed before. I'm wondering when it would be more practical to use a beta58 or 57 as opposed to an SM58? I'm thinking of purchasing one and using it on my snare top. I've got a couple SM58s and 57s already; should I save my money? Thanks

I'm sure I'm going to get flamed for this, but.. what do people like so much about the Abbey Road kick sound? or the entire recording for that matter. Maybe it's because I'm young (19) but I just don't get it. I listen to it and to me it just sounds so.... weak. It sounds distant, or...

I'm looking to get one or two ribbons (a new venture for this condenser addict) mainly for use as vocal or instrumental spots in classical work; just maybe as choral pickups when dealing with brass in the back row of an orch, or JUUUST MAAAAAYBE as a Blumlein pr. I'd be interested in any...

Has anyone compared either? I might be able to borrow my friend's 01V for some sessions, but I'm not sure if it's even worth trying. I've heard the pres are thin sounding, but I can't imagine them being worse than the firepod's pres. Any advice would be appreciated! Thanks, C

I've been out of the narration business for 15+ years...fell into a wormhole and am back in. I would like to get a list of the best microphones for two different applications: * a narrator's booth * a quality music studio Perhaps technology has changed, but I expect that a mic that...
