Anyone familiar with "Eco-Core" acoustic insulation?
"...a blend of recycled cellulose, paper and cotton. This material has extremely comparable sound absorption at mid to high frequencies and superior absorption at low frequencies, when compare with traditional fiberglass based cores."
Free-standing gobos, 3" - open back or closed?
I'm designing some gobo panels, each about 3' x 7', containing 3" of Roxul Safe-n-Sound. I will join them in pairs with hinges.
I'm wondering if I should fabric both sides, or put a hardboard backer on the back?
vintage tube mics: worth it or not?
Hey guys, I'm working on a mix of my cover of "Superstition" by Stevie Wonder. I think the vocal might be a bit low in the mix and a bit too congested around 300-500k/not bright enough. I used my new Telefunken Elam 251 and for the price, I'm trying to make decisions about whether or not I should hold onto it or go with another vintage tube that suits my voice.

Repairing a Shure 545?
Greetings-
I recently bought an older Shure 545 (4-pin Amphenol era) on eBay, and while it works, it sounds a bit of the dog with voice: a greatly diminished low end, and reminiscent of talking through a paper towel tube.

Software Compressor Q?
So, I've read all about compressors, everything I could find. Some of the links I've read I found on this site.
I'm not ashamed to say that there is little that I truly understand about them. And I've never gotten to use a hw unit.
Threshold I get, (I'm trying to recall all the settings) "make up" I get.

Do we need to spend thousands of dollars on recording gear or software?
When it comes right down to good sound, the mix and master, I personally believe I can get by on most basic DAW platform with good to excellent preamps and conversion.
That fact that I use and discuss excellent gear is because its available to me, and because its also a passion of interest.
Does This Switch Wiring Work For What I Want?
I want to break a signal path which has no discrete components in it as of now. I want a 3 position toggle switch to have the options of Stock (signal pass through), Resistor 1 (signal path broken and routed into Resistor 1), and Resistor 2 (signal path broken and routed into Resistor 2). I've been pondering this, but I think I have figured out how to do it.
