VU build from a old tape deck.
Forums
Hi! I pulled this nice set of VU meters from a old nakamichi tape deck. The deck powered up but I think the belt was shot. Any way I was going to build another set of VU's for a mate. I was stoked that I only had to unscrew two screws and the whole VU module popped out. I hooked up some power and the lamps fired up! Good start! I tried to get some 1kh test tone signal in from my 02R in to it.

Mixing suggestions - Out Of The Blue
Forums
Hello recordists! This is my first post, I appreciate having a place to get objective advice about audio.
This song was written by the singer. I arranged and recorded everything, now I'm ready for the brutal honesty part of the process.

Thanks for listening.

Recording vocals and acoustic guitar without a computer
Forums
Hey all, probably a stupid question but I need to know if an MXL-990 condenser mic will work with a Tascam dp-32sd Portastudio without an audio interface. I was thinking of ordering this recorder and mic to get away from computer recording and wanted to make sure I get everything I need at one time.
Thanks!

I was just listening to a bunch of Freddie Mercury live. Some with Pavarotti and some with Monserrat Caballe. These were live recordings and though there were minor imperfections, I had forgotten what true talent sounds like sans autotune or melodyne.

Smalltown Boy Reprise 2014
Forums
I've always loved this song. This latest version uses many microphones as seen in the video. The one Jimmy Somerville is singing into looks very old. I'd like to know what type it is.

Mid-range Audio Interface Option
Forums
I'm thinking of a couple of different methods for recording. To start, most of the recording will be location so I'm interested in portability. The recordings will be quiet source classical ensembles, with some jazz/blues/small rock clubs too.
