Thanks Hugh. Yes I figured it may have passed to the great budget recording studio spare drawer in the sky. Thanks for the detailed answer though - much appreciated.

Hi all I have an old sony stereo mic (ECM MS957 I think) and the battery isn't powering it. I'm thinking that it might be totally jiggered, or it might work with phantom power (rather than using the battery). Anyone know whether I'm barking up the wrong tree and, if I'm not, whether the cable on the...

I still struggle to get a really clean warm tone from the UA models. What would you use, for example, for a jazz tone? I have got reasonable results with the Chandler GT amp then boosting the signal with a compressor just to boost the signal rather than compress it. Appreciate your thoughts (and sor...

I really hope that they extend that warranty period for you Desmond - like many on here I have been the grateful recipient of your e...

Thanks for the responses guys - appreciated. I know how to turn it off, but I just wanted to know why it is suddenly coming on from time to time - might I risk damaging the drive by turning it off?I will probably just get an external drive as suggested, but as I have the hybrid in place of the optic...

Hello allFor some reason, the sudden motion detector keeps kicking in on my 2011 macbook pro. Not all the time and I know that I can disable it, but I want to know why it keeps coming on.the system drive is a SSD (which I thought didn't use the SMD?) but I have got a hybrid drive in place of the opt...
