HOF has been a joke for years. Hollywood has recently followed suit. Piss on em. I'm going to like what I want to like, as always. How about some enterprising young entrepreneurs coming up with a whole new Hall of Fame with a little authenticity? Same for the motion picture academy

The problem with going cashless in any circumstances is that a government can then freeze your account for any perceived infraction and you have no other form of currency available to you Get vaxxed or we freeze your account Stop voicing your opinion or we freeze your account Join this or...

Dang, I wouldn't know whether to plug that damn thing in or eat it !! I guess I'll play it safe... Got any napkins?

In my not so humble but sometimes bumbling, opinionated and heavily biased viewpoint, the only things a 2203/2204 needs to achieve tight, gainy greatness are: • 6550s in the power section • Strong high gain AX7 in V1 (recommend RFT or Mesa SPAX7) • Catalinbread Super Chili Picoso clean boost...

Sho nuff !

Why wouldn't one sing at Shakey's? Everybody else did! And where on Earth was the Shakey's with the square Pizza? The one in Shreveport, Looziana made round ones. You could watch them making the pizzas through the big glass windows in the kitchen. They slung them babies way up in the air. P.S...

So, no one here has mentioned """"SHRIMP PIZZA"""" Is it just a Texas thing?? It's damn sure a GOOD thing, regardless... :drunk: :woot: :headbanger:

Well, let's examine the current situation. I'll agree that with a simple high quality rig with little to no outboard/analog front end there will be less noise floor to deal with. E-drums and direct recording of electric guitars, etc may present little in the way of extraneous noise. So at the...

Awhile back, a friend who was just getting into recording asked me what I'd say if I could only give one bit of advice...so I told him ... "Boost early, cut late." And by that I meant, get as hot a signal as you reasonably can going in, and cut levels as late in the signal chain as possible...

Nice sounds! The toms sound good too in that context. I think he just has the snare tuned pretty tight and the mics are picking up some nice room reflections. Also the snare is triggering the toms to resonate... he's hitting it pretty hard

I have very simple rigs with usually one or two pedals at the most. So I use a simple noise gate. ISP Deci-Mate ISP Technologies DECI-MATE Micro Noise Reduction Pedal | Sweetwater https://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/DECI-MATE--isp-technologies-deci-mate-micro-noise-reduction-pedal It does...

Supercongrats! :cheers: About 3 months after I posted this thread I got curious and bought an Echoplex EP-3. I had always wanted one anyway. The Chase Tone Secret Preamp does indeed sound almost exactly like the preamp in the Echoplex! I'm not sure what it is that makes these circuits...

You're right. It's already been destroyed! :drunk:

Social media destroyed art. It's going to destroy the world. Nighty night

Being a solo recordist, I never record more than two tracks at once unless I am recording my drum kit. I track to tape, then send the tracks to a synched pair of Roland VS1824s, which are old standalone 18 track 24/44.1 workstations. I use high-end outboard mic pres, dynamics and EQ, and Apogee...

Nice to see some fellow MFers rocking the big guns.. It might not be as unusual as one might think. I try to use the best tools possible in my home studio because, like you said, it's easy to get beautiful sounding tracks and because quality gear and instruments inspire creativity. Apparently...

What is your go-to mic for lead vocals? Are you using outboard preamps, Dynamics and/or EQ , or are you an in-the-box aficionado? And what about backing vocals? What do you do with them to make them easily audible while letting the lead vocal shine through? I use outboard gear all the way...

There are lots of pretty good LDC mics under a grand: Super Cheap: --- Shure KSM27 - Good workhorse mic, get a pair if you can afford it MXL V69M - A tube mic for $250?? Yep, and boy does it have a lot of color and character. Although I enjoyed one while I had it, it probably would not be...
