Re: Sound Devices choosing a recorder

And if all you need are two XLR inputs, the Zoom F3 is a possible choice. Runs a decent time on Lithium AA batteries (expensive), can take power on USB-C in. I have been using one a few years with a Schoeps MSTC64 with good enough results. Thanks, are the results from the Zoom going to be ...

Re: Panic! party music dilemma

Cuerva Gold tequila and make sure it's got the worm. They won't even know there is music. Hell, they won't even know where they are. Trust me on this, I'm a budding politician. "oh what a night!" :D After my Quad preamp decided to let go of one channel, soldering iron came out, but all was well ...

Pity you didn't tell me a week ago Tony! I could have made you up just about any connector/adapter known to Audio Man...plus I have an NI KA6 you could have borrowed for the duration. Now, have you heard of the "day after the day after new years day effect"? No? Well that's when us old 'tronics ...

Re: Panic! party music dilemma

In my cable bag I always keep a USB-C to mini-jack and a Lightning to mini-jack. and a mini jack to 2x1/4" lead and a whole bunch of 1/4" to Phono adaptors for just such an occasion. I suspect that, unless Currys (who do sell the USB-C and Lightning headphone adaptors) are less than 20 minutes away ...

Panic! party music dilemma

Hosting a New Year party tonight at our house, just had a call, can I rig up some sort of interface system for the music? I have my Quad pre-power amp, which is fine for normal audio connections, but, in these days of no headphone sockets on mobile phones I’m a bit stuffed, I'll probably have to d ...

Re: Small ish Digital mixer for solo artist?

Re: Small ish Digital mixer for solo artist?

Eddy, the QU 16 is tempting, but a side road, where are the send and return sockets for external FX? A quick glance would suggest that it has 10 aux outs (4 mono / 3 stereo pairs, all on XLR). Returns would need to be via channel strips. All connections are on the rear pannel. There are also 4 ...

Re: Small ish Digital mixer for solo artist?

The only small digital mixer I have proper experience with is the A&H Qu-16 and for the purposes described it would suit the job well I think. As digital mixers go it's well thought-out and it wasn't hard to adapt to it after using an analogue mixer in the past. It also offers direct-to-USB ...

Re: Sound Devices choosing a recorder

Thank’s all, looks like it’s the MixPre 3 then.
This lack of pre-record? take it it’s got nothing to do with setting pause record levels?
See prices have gone up since I last looked :shocked:

Music is like sex, there are many ways to reach what is basically the same place, and you don’t need two hands sometimes, one will do. Are we talking about Garmin or MIDI ports here?

Re: The Behringer Keyboards 'n' Stuff Thread #3

It is a bit of a joke sometimes, this bloke I know has a massive studio, in a warehouse, with every classic synth known to man, but in places there's the odd 49 note keyboard, he has more than enough space, and resources, the only reason those short keyboards are there is because they don’t come in a ...

Re: The Behringer Keyboards 'n' Stuff Thread #3

I get that in some cases space is a constraint in a home studio, but in most scenarios, in my opinion, multiple keyboards are preferable. Hence Behringers decision doesn't seem unreasonable I think. Either recreate it properly, or just do a module. A 4 octave keyboard saves little space for anyone ...

Re: Time to reprise this one I think

Beautiful Will, I'd love to see what you could do with a few vintage Casio's and home organs, I'm hearing those sounds in your music, potentially, could make it even more poignant, but maybe it’s just as it needs to be.

Re: Budget 10" Active Speaker Experiences Wanted

If I was in Jame's shoes I'd go for Alto, decent enough from what I've heard, Thomann are fine, I've used their mixers and quality seems to be good, but James isn’t on a really tight budget, on that basis I'd go for the Alto's.

Have to agree. But I know I’m not the demographic. What I’d like to know is, who "is" the demographic?
