This board didn't get a lot of exposure in the industry to start off with, I guess due to the success of the VS series of digital studio workstations.

I'm looking for a few good MIDI programmers for a project that will lead even the most sane person to the brink of insanity (just look at me). This project requires a gaggle of skills some of which are:

- a comprehensive, El Tweako Grande MIDI sequencing skills

- an authoritative command of synthesis

- a firm grasp on contemporary music theory concepts

How would you charactorize the AMEK Mic Pre / EQ in comparison to the Vintech Mic Pre / EQ or other Neve designs? In both Mic Pre and EQ?
Thanks,
Mike

There has been quite a lot of talk about ADC and clocking issues but there is another very important factor in making your PT setup sound like a professional tool, the plugins. There are hundreds out there and the vast majority sound crap! So here is my personal preference for quality sound:

In a couple of months, I will begin tracking for a follow-up album that I have been hired to produce/engineer for an independent label. I am a Pro Tools guy (yes), and own a modest studio, with several decent mic preamps, good A/D conversion, etc. These days, I've been mixing inside PT, and it is working well for me.

It's not a subject that I really want to spend heaps of time on because I think most good engineers agree that making something loud and ruining dynamics is a bad thing, but...

In an earlier post by Kgretlein, you offered some suggestions. I'm interested in trying this technique out front of a drum kit (recording session).

My question is; you mentioned multing the figure 8 mic so that you now have two channels of the figure 8 mic-a panned left & right signal. You mentioned changing the polarity of one of those signals.

I'd been having a lot of trouble getting my mixes to translate well to other systems (a lot of trial and error - mostly error) and I finally did a sine wave plot of my monitor/room. No wonder...as much as 20db differences at some frequencies (I did three runs and averaged the results).

Hi everyone, can it get better! I am so pleased to announce Joe Lambert from http://www.classics…"]Classic Sound[/]="http://www.classics…"]Classic Sound[/], our newest addition to the already impressive list of moderators on RO.

OK I set up a 5.1 rig by 'loaning' extra Genelec's and had a fun time..

I can lay my hands on extra Genelec's with ease, this makes me want to stick with that brand.. In case of future 5.1 work..

But I think I need to tweak them a little...

I am considering getting in a BSS Omnidrive to eq my set up a tiny bit...
