OK...similar threads have been posted all over this and other forums, but let's get down to the brass tacks here.

If you were to build a system from scratch, and money was *not* an object (to a point obviousy), what would you build, and what components would you use (brand names, etc.)?

On my first big recording project, I've already screwed up (a bit). The drums are all tracked, and sound pretty damn good, if I do say so myself -- with one exception.

The snare was top-miked only, and because of that, the sound of the snares is almost completely missing. The snare drum sounds almost like a very high-tuned tom.

AKG is going to make a new version of the 451. No teeny threads on the capsule. I think they will be non-removable capsules, cardioid only (BOO).

The electronics are descended from the AKG Blue Line, and there will be 2 low cuts, and a 2 position attenuator, unlike the screw-in capacitive pads that Stephen Paul says messed up the frequency response on original 451's.

I thought if there was NO device it would not even show up? Or is it just saying there is space for something else?

After completing the mastodont mixing job you may witness at I now find myself with a few minutes left over for MixFest.

I am starting up a brand new free email newsletter dedicated to tips on recording. The idea is to bring you pearls of wisdom from both professional and amateur recording engineers and artists to help you get the most out of your equipment.
I am looking for articles to put in the newsletter - the author getting a plug for their latest project, or whatever they like.

I know I asked you this before so please give me a refresher.

When Setting up ASIO MultiMedia Setup...What should be checked and what should not be checked?

Kind of off topic..When I use SYstemWorks Speed Disc now with Win XP and 2K it takes much longer than it did with 98 and ME...Do you know why that is?
