Hi,
has anyone of you vintage mic junkies used
the Pearl 8-ck? It's a swedish LD tube condenser
with a square diafragm, made sometime in the
early sixites. I can possibly buy one, but
I can probably not audition it beforehand...

Tankful for any input!

Hello... Just want some thoughts here... I have a Panasonic Da-7(pretty clean and transparenent pre's not much color at all.) into Mackie MDR/DP3.0 Setup. RNC compressors and some decent mics SM7's .57's, 4050 etc etc. Looking to put together one good channel of pre and compressor this year.

Pick noise is a problem that I have been dealing with off and on for a long time. I realize that some pick noise adds character and realism to the sound, but I am talking about *excessive* pick noise here.

Hi :-)

I'm tired of using my standard-Micing for guitar-recordings. How do you mic an amp...espacially Combos like an VOX AC30 or Fender Twin...etc.
What mic's do you use? What techniques you prefer ? Tell me your tricks in Micing an amp !

Best regards :-)

Sonic Foundry has just released a new version of Sound Forge, version 6.0 (beta only right now). I still use Sound Forge periodically, but have migrated mostly over to Wavelab. Here is a quick summary from Sonic Foundry...(Notice that they still haven't added any new CD burning capabilities to replace CD Architect...) Nothing that looks too impressive to me...

Anyone have thoughts on the Focusrite ISA 110 for vocal recording? Hows do you like the eq?
As a side bar are the Green Focusrites any good?

As I peruse this massive forum, I felt that this would be the place to ask that all important question stated in the subject line.

Howdy all. I have been poking my head around rec.org and found this place ;) I worked at Lexicon as an alpha tester on the core 2 for Mac and PC (amongst other things), while I'm not a code jockey, I have found a few interesting things about it. Here's some things that might help people with problems.

Hi everyone, I was wondering if you could help me for a sec.

I just recently started to use my pc for recording. I didn't have a huge budget so I bought the Audiophile 2496 soundcard because it was recomended to me as one of the best starter cards out there.

April 6 /2002.
Saturday morning. Wombarra.East Coast of Australia. Approximately 65k’s from Sydney. Beautiful calm morning. I’m listening to "The Chillout Annual 2002", a two CD set/compilation put out by the "Ministry Of Sound". First track on CD Two.
"trippin’" by Goldtrix, featuring Andrea Brown – "They say I’m crazy……". Seems fitting somehow.
