Re: 48 tracks in PTLE now...

Wow . . .

TapeOp seems to have gotten this before you guys. And they don't even LIKE Digi. Hmm . . .

Re: outboard compressor vs plugin....

You have to remember they aren't necessarily doing the exact same thing. Yeah they can both compress the signal but the PSP plug (which I think is great) is adding intentional color (maybe someone...

Re: Instrument mics (other then shure 57)

Yeah - agree with the above - what type of instrument?

I'm going to guess that from your post that you're looking for gtr cab mic. Again, knowing type of amp/desired sound, etc. would help, but -...

Re: Quality LE Reverb Plugs

Re: LOOKING FOR ADVICE ON A DECENT DIRECT BOX

Avalon U5 - Sweetwater's got 'em for just over $500. Great unit. It was a toss up between this, a Kurzweil Rumour or an AT 4047 for my Christmas gear purchase.

The mic won. Woo hoo.

Be good

Re: using plug-in compression

I'll second the vote for the RNC. No rig should be without one. Another slightly pricier choice is the ART Pro VLA - more color than the RNC, it imparts a little more grit/tone. The RNC is pretty...

Re: Custom session template question/confusion

That's just the way it works. If you open an existing session the system assumes you want to work with what's already there, opening as a new session indicates you want to set up a totally new...

Re: Oktava MK-012 for acoustic guitar - good choice?

Re: sm57 or 58?

C'mon. They're what, 100 bucks a pop at your local McGuitar Mart?

Splurge. It'll make you feel good.
