I heard mention of "Tube Dampers" on another thread and rather than hijaking that thread i thought i'd start a new one.

I was going to ask everyone what these were, but, i googled and found out. For those wondering here is a link

I just bought a G4 Powerbook so I'm wondering.. Is there a better way to get quality mixdowns from my Powerbook than just going 1/8" headphone out to RCA left and right on my standalone Philips CD burner?
I'd like to get the best quality for a reasonable price.

I'm not at home to look at the Philips CD burner, it may very well have:

the holes in the back of MOTU gear (828mkII) are too close together to allow Neutrik connecTRS to be used; they're too fat, you have to unscrew every other one or risk stressing the holes. Do neutrik do a thinner model that is known to work. what are y'all using?

Hello!

I want to buy a Power Conditioner for my studio.
I have a PC, a few keyboards and FX processors, Mixer, Preamp.. A basic small studio.

I am looking for recommendations, I think my power may be a little dirty.

Ideas?

I am getting ready upgrade my front end (or maybe just add to it). I'm looking to get the best possible vocal chain as funds allow. Here's the scoop:

Currently have:

TLM-103 (also have an at4033) into A-Designs mp-2 into Lucid ad9624 into RME soundcard.

Looking to either add a new mic: at4050, 4060, u195, or CharterOak SA538 (the laters requiring more saving)

I use a lappy for most of my recording needs. It works but I can't run a ton of VST/VSTi's. I'm using Cubase SX on an Intel machine. I freeze tracks to release the strain off of my CPU, but that can be a time consuming process.

I just purchased a power supply unit and 3 keepex modules from e-bay but they dont come with a lunchbox. Where can I get one

helo this week i m buying a mic preamp and i m hesitating between the Great River ME-1NV and the Vintech or X73
anythoughts?
i will likely use it on vox only
i have a very powerful voice
any commments < not on my voice!> would be appreciated
i like that 1073 sound
thank you

Can someone help me out ...I am new to this and I bought a few toys t fiddle with. But from what I am reading in differnt books is that ...Say the drums, base, vocals and Keyboards all have there sounds confined to a certain freq range. Kind of shelving frequencies so as not to step on what is going on around it.
