New here, came from Harmony-Central, looks great. Quick question (please delete if inappropriate, or otherwise advise): is the Dave McNair moderating here the same Dave McNair who I was lowly studio assistant to on a John Mayall record ten years ago? The album was recorded at Clubhouse in Burbank, and R.S. Field was the producer.

Were you Austrailian guys caught up in all that?

Tell us about it!

Sheesh!

:eek:

Hey, lets make a list and start talking about the ones that work.

This is going to be very interesting but we need a list and then we'll start threads that are on going. Do polls etc.

Does this sound like a plan?

I apologize if this suggestion has already been put out there, but I'm always curious to compare/exchange mixes done entirely *inside* PT with others who are doing the same. This isn't an attempt to start yet another debate over the Pro Tools mix bus, math, etc. Let's just assume for a moment that there is some degree of wierdness there.

I'm currently using a RODE NTK with an Avalon 737sp. Can someone give me some ideas on mic/preamp combos that would be better than this. I record mostly Contemporary Country and Pop, some R&B. Male tenor range. I also do VOs.

I've heard a lot of raving about the new BLUE Kiwi and the Sound Projects T3 mics. Anyone used them and with what preamp?

I was talking to someone the other day that mentioned Old Neumann U87 modified by Klaus Heyne or Brauner VM-1 KH (again re-modified by Klaus) Anyone here have any of those mics? Can you tell me about them?

Thanks!

any ever use the Beyer M-88 classic, what is it best suited for?

Anybody have any experience about this mic?
I've read quite a lot of good comments about it.
It is very expensive though...

Stage managers/Producers,

Hello! I think I have decided on DP3 as my software of choice, to run on the fastest Mac out there (Woo!)...the dual 1Ghz Quicksilver.

Currently, I'm running OS X 10.1 (the default OS), and I imagine that DP is not yet OS X compatible. Did they say when that will be available and the upgrade cost?
