I had a 4 high column of these LENRDs in each corner of a roughly 5m x 3m, high ceilinged room. They did help to deaden the room, but didn't really deal with the bumps in the bass end. I've now moved some of them and built triangular traps with Rockwool in 2 of the corners - They work much better ...

I started playing about with a steel a few years back. Couldn't get on with thumb and fingerpicks, eventualy settled on hydrid picking. It's not "authentic" but it works for me. I have classical guitar nails though, so there is still a bit of natural pick for the fingers.

Swap out Dorico for Wavelab and you have my experience exactly.

Thanks. I've just spent half an hour tinkering with the demo and this manual is now proving very helpful.

Re the extension cables, Thomann do a cheapish one in their Ssnake line. 5m, locking connector, decent robust quality and fully maintainable (not that I've ever had to). I've had half a dozen of these in service as headphone extensions for nearly 10 years and they are still going fine. They replaced ...

For balance, I have always been a huge Yes fan and remember being blown away by 6 Wives when it came out - it really seemed pretty ground breaking at the time. Not really a fan of Wakeman nowadays though and haven't followed his path other than noticing his occasional comings and goings with the Yes ...

Spectralayers can do this I believe, although as a long-time RX user who is just starting to get to grips with Spectralayers I haven't tried it myself yet.

I use Session Recall. Very handy for all sorts of outboard including the Bus+ https://www.soundonsound.com/reviews/session-recall Thanks, I'll check this out. I've been using it for about a year now and very happy. The chap is super responsive to suggestions or queries and also very quick to put ...

About the SSL Bus+ - This thing sounds amazing. I got to watch it in action again this past weekend. BUT, the menu options! How do you even begin to document recall? It's like counting cards at a Vegas blackjack table. Does anyone own one of these? I'm curious what sort of black magic you use to ...

Thanks for the heads up, I had being keeping half an eye out for these to come on a special offer.

........... As for hybrid style, check out Steve Howe’s close-up videos of him playing ‘The Clap’. Like you say, there's no right answer, you just have to work out what works for you. But of course that may change over time... Coming from starting with classical playing, I always struggled with a pi ...

Chowny's have increased in price because production has been moved from the far east to the UK. Although with the way everything is going up, all the move has done is brought on the increase earlier. At least now sourcing them is easier. I wondered if a change of production venue might have been ...

Mrs Fishnish now plays short scales after a car accident resulting in long term shoulder problems. She has a Chowny SWB 1 Fretless which she likes a lot, its well built and solid with a nice slim neck and fingerboard. Not what one could call a 'lightweight' short scale though! She's had it a few ...

I make a fair bit of use of the Cubase Notepad features which are available individually on tracks in the Project Window and channels in the Mix Console, as well as a project global Notepad. If it were needed outside of the project all the Notepad data can be exported as a text file and could be ...

Cardboard box? You should be so lucky...

Our studio used to be in a paper bag in t'septic tank...

I have a WA273-EQ which is set up in a similar fashion to the way you describe and it all works fine. Mics (or instruments) get plugged directly in the front and the WA 273's rear line inputs are fed via a patch bay from a pair of outputs on my interface. I only take one pair of outputs from the WA ...

Another one for VNC as the remote control service and I use the "RealVNC" clients on mobile to control systems elsewhere. See also Teamviewer as another similar option with free tier which can be slightly easier to setup, although has a more weighty app. Thanks, yes been looking at both VNC ...

Thanks, will check VNC out too.

BTW the Steinberg Cubase iC Pro app discussed above is no longer available for Android. Steinberg apparently dropped it some time ago as they weren't happy with it, so that is now off my list.

What DAW do you use? Some have remote apps that allow basic transport control etc. Cubase. Steinberg does have an app called IC Pro which would appear to give a decent basic set of controls including transport, key commands, cue mixes etc. The Sound on Sound overview was pretty informative, thank ...

Cool! Please let us know the results :) I shall certainly report back as to how I get on. If it works this will be a good step 1. I'm gonna keep investigating remote desktop things too as that should give me access to transport functions and cue mixes etc. I checked and sadly my current OS on the ...

I'd just make sure that the two monitors fed from the splitter are the same native resolution, otherwise things might get a bit 'confused'. Thanks, yes I recently upgraded my main pair to frameless ones so have a pair currently lying fallow. They're basically the same monitors with the same ...

Splendid. I like not expensive, and will start by seeing how we get on with an HDMI splitter.

At the moment it works very smoothly and I'm cautious about offending it! say no more! :D Although you've got me thinking - for the most straighforward setup, all I'd really need to do is duplicate one of the existing displays, that would be enough to follow a part from the "booth" - maybe just an ...

Take a look at Remote Desktop - it is built into Windows (though you need the Pro version on your Cubase PC to act as a server) and also in earlier versions but will also work on other platforms like Linux and Android (and probably IOS and Mac as well although I've not used it on them). Thanks, I ...
