Hello,
I'm looking intensly for an AKG A51 swivel joint to mount CK1 on C451 bodies angled from the axis...

Seems to be difficult to get these days (I don't know why so many companies discontinue their cool stuff!)

If you happen to have one in good working order and would like to sell it, please contact me...

best regards
Robert

Since my recent acquisition of some very good Preamps and a definitive and noticeable step up in conversion quality, I've run into the "downside" of using these...
It really brings to the forefront the weak links in the recording chain - in my case, it's been painfully obvious to me that the overall tone of my acoustic guitar sucks.

3 DAWs - 3 sounds? Reaper vs Sonar vs Samplitude In this video, I test 3 DAWS by doing the exact same mix of the same song. There was a long debate as if every DAWs sounded the same and I thought it was time to get a true answer.

I also give a link to downloadable multitracks songs.

What do you think of the tests, convincing ?

Anyone listened to Arcade Fire's Everything Now?
I've been surprised to hear how quiet and dynamic this album is.
I read it was mastered by Greg Calbi.

Last The National's album is even quiter, is old fashion mastering a new trend among alt-rockers?

I hate to do this. I have to. I want to mic my drums. So here it goes...
I have a Shure Sm57 as an overhead mic.
I have an Audio-Technica At2020, (Which I'm cleverly using as a bass drum mic.) I might try to use it as an overhead.
And I have a Focusrite Scarlett 2i2.

Gear:

• Archtop Guitar
• PreSonus 2 channel BlueTube
• Allen & Heath ZED 10FX Mixer
• Canon XA10 Camcorder

What’s an affordable hardware bass guitar compressor?

I've been away from the music world since 2013, when my last band broke up. It's been a long hiatus, but I've been chatting with a few members of that old band, and we're going to form a new project this Spring/ Summer. Which means I need to buy and build a new recording setup.

Hi gang...thought I might give my initial impressions of the Apogee Duet Mic Pre/Converter that I've recently acquired, in case someone might be doing a search on the device.

Anyone have any recommendations to tame highs in Mastering. I'm looking at a Drawmer 1973 right now because of my budget. Trying to stay out of the digital realm right now and do most if not all my processing in the analog realm. I'm also considering saving up for a Weiss Unit or a Maslec MBC. Any suggestions for outboard gear?
