I am playing a 2-headed cylindrical indian hand drum called a pakhawaj. The skins are weighted with the "black spot" like a tabla. I am self taught, and play this instrument using fingering techniques that are more related to another south indian drum called a mridangam. The sound can be much more weighty than a tabla and has a really nice warm sound to it.

hello i m looking to buy a mic preamp to warm up my vocal tracks or acoustic guit track i m willing to spend $ 300 to 400 used or new
any coments?
i know some of you will say that i should invest more money into it but that s all i have at the moment
how about the PreSonus eureka?

Hello,

For the ME's out there that also have experience with multitrack programs like Cubase/Nuendo, I was wondering what are some recommendations for Channel EQ plugins, and channel/Group Bus Compressors.

Hi,

Hi all...

Well, my Sebatron 1000 just arrived. Took less than 1 week from Australia to England. First impressions. seems like a great unit!

I'm pretty new to the whole home recording and DAW world. I've been messing around for awhile at home using Sonar 3 and various softsynths. I don't have any wild money making dreams. Just a hobby that seems to grow more serious as the days go by. .more expensive as well. :D

First of all, i'm an amateur/hobbyist in the field so my knowledge is somewhat limited...

I have a Technics SU-Z22 Amplifier and I was thinking of buying a console(Soundcraft Compact-4) and a pair of Tannoy Reveals(passive - less money since I have the amplifier) for home recording.

I'll be engineering a live broadcast in mid-April and I've been debating about what mic setup to use this time. Not sure on the line-up yet, but I'm guessing a couple of guitars, maybe a banjo, including vocals.

Hi, i'm working in a small studio and have the following setup:

1 x 16 tr fostex recorder
1 x 8 tr fostex recorder
1 x Mackie 24x8 bus analog desk
1 x Mackie 24 channel extension

with some external compressors, fx, etc

i am gonna buy a midi keyboard for my home studio in the price range of 300$ i really love the Grand piano sound, variations of piano sounds, organs, pads and want also to work with it on software synths such as Absynth. also i want it to be good enough to use on stage concerts.
