ISO Adapter - Bogen Manfrotto 5/8 stud to 5/8-27 thread

There are a lot of kewl and versatile lighting mounts for photography and it seems like they'd be good to have around for creative mic mounting problems. I've seen the studs with 1/4" thread on one end and 3/8" thread on the other - a 3/8-16-5/8-27 bushing could go on those and then a mic clip/shock-mount, but too many adapters and such leads to having stuff move when you don't want it to.

balanced adapters

ok i am tracking some acoustic drums and have all of my pre's taken by the overheads, kick and top and bottom snare. i run with a MOTU 2408 mkIII and it has a built in mixer (great feature) and i decided to use it. i am using the Sennheiser e604's for my toms. i dont have a lot of money to spend on new cables so i bought some adapters to convert my XLR to a unbalanced 1/4 to fit my motu.

Which adapter for the traveler?

I was wondering if there's a specific brand of power converters people use who travel around the world. Since the power standards are different, it's a pain to get those in some countries. I want one which converts 240 to 120 volts. I could plug my power conditioner which will have all the rack equipment (preamps and stuff) connected to it, to the power converter.

Mic Power supply's a hummin-OK to use a ground lift adapter?

Forums

So there's one and only one thing in the studio here that introduces ground hum.

A power supply for a tube mic.

Everything's on one isolated circuit BTW.

A 3 to 2 prong ground lift adapter will silence this nutty piece o' hummin gear, but is it safe? (This mic will be used for a D/I'd electric guitarist who will be simulaneously playing and singing).

Focusrite ISA 428 - ADC adapter and recording to hard drive

Hello all,

I just recently purchased a Focusrute ISA 428. I am trying to make up my mind as to whether I need to also get the MH-442 ADC adapter.

Without the ADC adapter, I would simply be running the four outputs of the ISA 428 to the inputs of my soundcard breakout box.

SCSI-USB Adapter?

Hi.

I have some external scsi things (scanners, hard disks, CD drives; I think they are all ultra-scsi, in any case, they are about 4-7 years old, but still work fine). I would like to be able to put them further away from the PC than scsi cables allow.

I am wondering if there is such a thing as a usb-to scsi adapter, that I could hook up in the following way:
