Hello all. 

I have a friend who has a studio who is Looking for a talkback system Battery for an AMEK MOZART 56-channel console, and I thought  that someone here might be able to point me in a good direction to begin searching.
If you have any advice on where to begin my search, I'd greatly appreciate it.

I've done my first Decca Tree recording

In all the years I've been recording, Decca Trees have been a mystery to me. I've been at sessions where they were used and the amount of hardware up in the air was daunting, but with a bit of effort, I've done one - in a venue with less that wonderful acoustics, and the effort was worth it!

Cool plugin from SPL. Seems well designed and easy to navigate. 

 HawkEye sports the most versatile audio measurement instruments in one tool set. It sets a new standard in audio analysis.

Not really our type of microphone, but worthy of a quick look, maybe?

A ribbon mic you can put on your lips and shout into without damage, or can even whisper into.

I posted recently about a job coming up where I was going to use a condenser mid mic, and a ribbon side mic, and useful piece of information emerged.

We have a conference coming up next week for all of our senior staff and directors. 

I’m an old timer and I’d like to get back to mixing out of the box on my console. I’m looking for an interface that has a lot of outputs. Preferably a lot of line level i/o and preamps aren’t necessary (the idea being to connect it to my console and record that way... with my protools rig standing in place of a tape machine). Ideally I’d like at least 16 outputs.

Here is the latest video on recording choirs, and follows on from the video from earlier this week where I talked about different stereo techniques.

Hello!

I recently got a Shure SM7b but I suspect it's defective. I've only recorded vocals for one song with it but felt there was something off with the sibilance so I analyzed it with Voxengo Span and noticed that there is a weird dip at 6500 Hz. It looks exactly like if there was an EQ with a very narrow bell with a pretty large decrease in dB at 6500 Hz.

This is an average measurement using Voxengo Span. The audio is completely dry, the SM7b set to flat (i.e. no bass roll off or presence boost).
