    FS 002

    Hi there, Just wondering if anyone would be interested in buying a Digidesign 002 for €750. All works fine. There are a few scrathces on the top. Other than that all is good with it. I'm selling it as I rarely use it. Thanks David

    pro tools free?

    I guess in a way that this is the nub of the problem. You can liken this to anything intangible. To use books as an analogy. If a book is stolen from a shop it's akin to tin of beans arguement. However if a book is digitesed - and disseminasted freely though illegally on the internet it's...

    pro tools free?

    I do undestand the try before you buy angle.. And I do think that for a few larger corporations such as adobe having photoshop on most machines is part of their marketing/monopolisation appraoch.. But I think in terms of a lot of plugin manufacterers - it's not the same thing.. These...

    Drum Recording

    Hi, I read this forum quite often and enjoy a lot of what I read on it. I am really a fan of drum recording - I record all the time, and within that drum recording is kinda like my hobby (that and vocals). Anyway, I was wondering if people would be interested in posting examples of their...

    pro tools free?

    Seriously though.... Typos aside (and for the pedantic amongst you i meant 'buy')... Can anyone give me a good justification for using cracks. I just had a heated discussion with my brother about this - for the record I am one of those people that buys the software they use - he is of the...

    Refreting your guitar

    Hi there, Totally depends on a number of factors - eg some fret wires are softer than others and wear quicker. But on balance, you should only need to get a guitar refretted when it is noticable - grooves in the frets or unexplained intonation problems at particular frets etc.. Quite...

    Divider screens

    Quite easily made too... Timber frame - with particle board as the sides - and a mixture of materials of an absorbant nature in the middle - if you can do three layers of board all the better. Rockwool is a great filler material... And buying the real thing is EXPENSIVE...

    Pre-amps

    Yup the RNP is really good for the money... If you ever A/B a good pre against a duffer it'll shock the pants of ya.. Recently I did this with a mackie against a John Hardy M1 - Now I'm quite lucky in as much as I get to use really cool pres all the time - but it really shocked me when I heard...

    Removing hiss/noise

    I've had to do quite a bit of this - and as someone else mentioned the best I came across was the waves stuff. And, hopefully not entangling myself in semantics (!), reducing noise is the only thing you can do - it's impossible to eliminate without degrading the signal. There are other pc...

    I meant to say that that can have a radical effect on the snare... David

    delay on a snare drum

    I'd go for a reverb with a short pre-delay... 20-30 ms... (Actually maybe that's long for a pre-delay..!) This will give you the delay effect and allow the snare drop off into its own reverb if you allow it around .75 of a second or so... I'd go heavy on the early reflections... Delaying the...

    Anyone have any experience with one of these mics?

    I've used them a few times...amazing clarity... The small diaphragm size and ensuing circuitry give truly incredible accuracy over all frequency ranges. There is a quite noticable absense of promixity effect, allowing great results on close micing bass heavy sources as well as a really flat...
