So i got the brick the other day and i only had a chance to work with it at a friends studio since all my gear is on location where I am doing recording for a band. We ran an AKG c1000 thru the brick on acoustic guitar and on vocals. We ran the signal straight from the brick into his aardvark and also thru the board into the aardvaark for additional gain.

Hi guys,

I have this simple mobile setup which consists of a Dell laptop (slightly old version, I think - 1GHz processor, 256MB RAM and 10GB harddisk, but enough for tracking on the road), a M-Audio FireWire 410 connected via a firewire CardBus adapter and a couple of ADK large diaphragm microphones. Not the most powerful quality setup, but the budget isn't overwhelming either.

I went out today looking for a new pre and would like some input on these products. First, I"m looking for bugget gear and what I"ll come down to is the Brick or the RNP. Both products have good names in the ind. The RNP is going for about 80.00 more than the Brick. Is it worth the extra money? Is there any major diff. between the two?

Hi, I have been making some home recordings on my PC with some friends and have been using some basic equipment, sm57 into a small Behringer mixer into an audigy 2 card into soundforge and then cubasis. We wanted to just make some demo recordings, weren’t really too fussed about quality, but now it’s become a bit of a hobby and I wanted to try to improve the set up a bit.

I really want someone who has experience with high-end gear to
give me their opinion on this pre. I'd like to know if it sounds 3 dimentional or if it sounds flat like budget pres.

it looks like it might be the first mid level pre thats worth its price tag.

thanks,

I'm looking at the AKG K66 for around $40.00 has anyone tried these? if so how do they compare to other pro quality headphones?

any other recommendations?

thanks,
Mark

Well I just upgraded to the RME Fireface 800 from my crappy Edirol FA301.

Firstly anybody searching, I cannot recommend the Fireface highly enough. The difference, mainly noticeable in the higher frequencies, and the clarity of what I can hear in old mixes that I never could before, is simply stunning.

I finally feel I am moving towards a semi-professional level.

Hi all! My first post over here, very nice forum!

I was looking at the UAD cards and it occurred to me that they are all running the same amount of processing power on the each of the Project Pak, Studio Pack and Ultra Pack cards. Can anyone confirm this?

Anybody have any comments, flames...

Ok, here's a flame... pick a forum and post in it! Once! we'd be happy to have you around here, but this kind of flooding isn't cool. Be patient and someone will probably respond.
