    The Wire

    Yeah, I love how that show is more like a movie than a tv series...Plus its written in such a way that it feels a lot more like reality rather then the typical crap that gets aired on non-premium channels...

    The Wire

    I was feeling the whole season. Im sad its gone. :( Personally, I dug the last episode too. I mean, they had to leave it open for the next season...thats what they always do.

    Word. Try to bypass the maximizer though and monitor your signals the same way to make sure to not clip without it on and then once your mix is complete - turn it back on. That way your gain structure will be a lot more even.

    MPA GOLD w/ CUSTOM TUBES

    The main reason you should want to buy a dedicated channel strip or preamp for your mic/etc is to obtain a level of quality sonically that simply isn't attainable via the stock pres that come with your interface or mixer. In many cases those preamps will work just fine for many...

    MPA GOLD w/ CUSTOM TUBES

    Yeah, that things rediculous. Im a big advocate of GT products now. They just make sick freakin shit. Plus it looks dope. ---------------- Chrono - that Avalon is the VT-737sp, it costs $2,250.00. (But well worth it IMO)....Some day when i got the scratch, im def coppin me one. :)

    MPA GOLD w/ CUSTOM TUBES

    Its fairly inexpensive for what it is: thats why i purchased it. Still ballin on a budget so I make due. The tubes ran me about 45 bucks. So all together about 350.00. Cant wait to fuck with the variable impedance tho. Love that feature. As far as the color: I actually hate that look, but its...

    MPA GOLD w/ CUSTOM TUBES

    Just copped a ART MPA GOLD dual preamp w/ (2) replacement 12ax7s to swap for the chinese stock tubes. Nothin to brag about really considering the obvious, but its still better than not having anything to run my signals through before they hit my DAW. Plus ive read nothing but good reviews...

    Its stereotypical, but funny none the less. No big deal though, its just a blog.

    Studio Monitors

    Yeah, leave them at 0 (or flat). Those knobs in the back are there to help compensate for poor listening environments. Your better off leaving things flat so you know what your getting in your mix.

    recording instruments with crappy mic

    Thats your main problem right there. But thats just the start. Your going to have a HUGE noise floor with a 30 dollar radio shack mic 99% of the time. I actually started with one myself....The dam thing was so freakin horrible it just wasnt worth recording with. Trust me dude. Theres no...

    Studio Monitors

    I have em too. Leave em Flat at 0. Unless ur makin music in a stop-sign shaped room you should be straight with them flat.

    Photoshop is art too. . right?

    Fa sho. It comes in waves. I tend to either just focus on art or just focus on music. But usually never both intensely at the same time. I miss painting.....I haven't used a actual physical medium in a long ass time. I just live in the computer now! :(

    Which Mic?

    Yeah I bought the trigger finger initially and wasn't that impressed by the pads. I wanted a denser rubber like the ones on the MPD. Although those pads will die. Trust me on that. IF their the same ones as the 1000 which they seem to be, then yeah - those things will start diein on you eventually.

    Photoshop is art too. . right?

    Om - you just stopped drawing after you saw the portrait of his mom...haha. Sheeyit. I kinda just stopped cuz computers took over, but i still havent got that tactile with actually painting yet. That shit is ill man. The wacom tab is the goods...Still want one of those dam things....

    Take the JJ OS Poll....

    Word. Well the main things I wish my OS had were the recordable mutes and the chop shop, but i didn't like the way either of those tools were integrated into the os and those are really the only reasons I wanted to get down the JJ one in the first place...
