now i got turned onto the Shure KSM44 as being an amazing mic for a decent price. Anyone used these, and what are your thoughts. I really was leaning toward the one-trick-pony tube RODE NTK for my Grace 101's, to match tube with SS...

oh, woe is me! what mic to buy. .

:roll:

I recently purchased what was supposed to be a Frontier Designs Tango24 8-channel D/A and A/D converter. What I received was a 20-bit Tango (no 24). I sent it back and should be getting a refund soon.

If I'm exporting files from Cubase at 24 bit and they were recorded at 16 bit, am i doing damage to the file?

The reason being I have some files at 24 bit and some files at 16 bit and would prefer to master at 24 bit obviously.

As you can see I'm somewhat of a beginner so take it easy please

Hi!

I'm willing to buy 3x Alesis AI-3 converters to connect to a creamware card. This would give me 24 in / 24 out, so I could use the computer as a recorder and mix out of the box.

The AI-3 has a 98 dB dynamic range, which is not the best you can have with a converter... I'm used to RME with its 117 db...

I am looking to buy monitirs for a large control room. I have 2500 for the pair. What are the best for that money. I have been looking at Dynaudio BM15A .

please bear w/ me... i tend to ramble, and be too verbose, but i like to lay down the background so y'all know where i'm coming from-- to describe all aspects of my situation as much as possible... so here goes...

Hi everybody!

I'm thinking about purchasing Digidesign's LE rack. I have a bunch of outboard gear (ie EQ, Compression, etc). I've looked on the back for aux in's and didn't notice any. Does it work well with outboard analog gear.

Hey boys,

Love this forum, despite the fact I'm more a musician than an engineer. Only been reading a week or so, but is it just us guys, or are there any women on the forum?

Anywho, I'm looking at the HEDD 192. Can I S/PDIF it into my g5 through the g5's stock spdif-in for stereo tracking into Logic, or would I need to get one of these AES interface cards?

...in a 1970's Marshall JMP head. I've heard that these amps get a really great, warm, saturated, tubey/crunchy tone. However, I don't know what the difference between all the years are, and unfortunately there aren't any in stores around town that I can play. People I know have said point to point 78's or 79's are great. The '78 fawn color looks very cool...
