Hi Folks,

Just picked up a older Slingerland Snare and I wanted to find out when it was made.

It is a 5 1/2 x 14, 6 lug the finish is Dark Blue Sparkle.

Drum has a serial six digit serial number on it and it is in realy nice shape.

Does anyone know where I can find out how to date this snare?

Thanks

Mike

Anyone tried one? Is it vaporware? Looks like it'd be a cool toy. Course, I mix in the box with Pro Tools, so what the hell do I know...

Everyone says that scooping the freq. around 500K can help clean up tracks such as bass, and other low frequency instruments. Can someone please take a screen shot or draw me a picture of what this scoop would look like (i.e., how wide and deep)? I know that it would depend specifically on the instrument and how "muddy" it is, but try to give me a reasonable generic case example. Thanks.

In my quest for a cheap but decent mixer I came across an old
Soundcraft Spirit Studio for about $600 US at a local store.
It's bigger than I need but how does it sound?

I'm thinking about buying new recording gear. This is strictly for recording my band, a handful of other friends, and to run an affordable portable recording system for local bands. I have one big question... When everyone talks about their outboard mixers, are they mixing down the feeds live and recording down to a stereo track?

Hey All! Does anyone know anything about submitting music to iTunes for them to sell on it? I'm helping (recording, mixing, etc...) my buddy produce his CD and we'd like to try and sell it on iTunes. I know the music will have to be good since they won't publish crappy music, but I think we have a good chance.

Hi i come from Hong Kong ! This is my first post here and :D is to all of you ! i am looking for a good colored pre to track some analog synth and module so as to drive them punch and warm. UA 2610 and TUBE-TECH MP1A, should i go for them :? ? do anyone have an experience with them ? if do, what sort of sound does it sound well on ?

I'm getting less than optimal results with my sm57... I know everybody loves them but what's better? I've been using a condenser on the snare because the sm57 lacks enough clarity and crack to cut through the mix(yeah, yeah, I know change it at the source.. 3 snares later i change the mic!) But now I need something with more body too. any suggestions? anybody use the Audix D1?

Hey DAvid or Alecio or really any of you cats.

Anybody running these free BF Essentials in OS9? Are they REALLY only for OSX?

Thanks gang.

I've heard that if I get a Delta 44 card, I won't be able to listen to CDs or run other programs with sound, since its only use is for recording music.
is that so? does anyone know of a card in the same price range ($200/230) which could be better than that one?
