Yes, my name has been eradicated from the mixing forum here at RO.

ProSoundWeb has asked me to moderate a forum there. Yes, they are paying me. But if you consider the amount of hours that I will be putting into it, it's hardly worth the price of admission.

hi atlas,
i visited your site and i'd be interested in purchasing from you in the future. i live in brandon also so i was wondering if you have a walkin-store or are you just internet based? it looks like your out by brentwood hills?

Name your favorite mags in order of preference add why if the mood grabs ya!

1) EQ - more bias towards alt rock and 'youth' music
2) Sound On Sound - learn stuff / news
3) Tape Op - Mad layout makes it last a (good) while 'cause it is so damn hard to read!
4) Mix
5) Audio Media (europe edition is all I can get)

I burn through em all!

So many forums, it's so hard to choose the right one!

OK, so I'm using a Tascam USB unit to do my tracking with. I want to route the vocals through an external reverb unit: however, the Tascam box doesn't have aux sends/receives, and when I go from output to input, all I get is some feedback (very creative feedback that will tactfully go into the song, so not a wasted effort).

The new version fixes nearly all graphic bugs, get the free update at:

so long...you chosen few, niko

Thanks for the input on the AMEK 9098 pre's... does anyone have any input on the Langevin pre's? Colored, clean, good, bad? Good pre for massive layering? Any input appreciated.
If you've heard both the Langevin and the Amek, gimmee your opinion betwixt... :)

I just went to musicplayer to ask DAvid a question and all three of my favorite forums are off the board. They are reworking the system, so I can only hope that the other forums are just not up and running so far. Ed Cherney's MPER is there. Unfortunately he hasn't been there for weeks, as you know. Anybody know what's up?

Everyone knows that 'amateur' demo's are given away by loads of cheap reverb washing around - that's probably why they sound so good some of 'em. (Not sure what the signs are these days, maybe huge chunks of uncleared samples).
However most producers eg Bob Clearmountain, have phases of leaning too much this way or that. Bob was having a ball with reverb on Roxy Music's Avalon.

Jay Kahrs mentions below he uses his TC M2000 multi FX unit as a converter (24 bit! Nice!) We use our digital FX boxes as converters often too (when our best converter is out on hire for example)

Fletcher I think has a compressor on his TV set at home...

I know Dave Martin in Nashville likes to keep his coffee warm on a favorite piece of valve gear!

Hi.Doing the rounds surveying gear etc to set up my own tracking studio. Just wondering. I've not come across any reviews of these units, they seem really well built. Although they're not purple
