  1. Well, at the time I purchased it, I was expanding to get more than 14 inputs. I did not care about outputs. Rme makes an 8 in 8 out device that would be cool. Micstacy maybe? It has auto gains I'm used to. So the audient was mostly for capturing the drum kit and I was tempted to get a bheringer device. They get very hot. I got into ribbon mics and the audient has impedence controls that impact how ribbons capture audio I wanted to try. This turned out to be less interesting than I thought it might be. I often record my guitar direct with the audient. The front panel input sounds great. I often use it to digitize outputs from other stuff like compressors and other pres. That you can bypass the pre on the audient is a nice feature. Idk. It's been good, but the bheringer might have been sufficient. I do a lot of recording at 96 and this does take me down to 4 inputs on the audient. This is because I use an rme ucx which only has one fiber input. I regularly use the high pass filters and it is nice that they are adjustable but you can mess up if they are set badly and you aren't noticing.

  3. I have an audient 880. Switches for impedence I rarely mess with. Adjustable high pass. And the thing I didn't know I needed... It has a 25 pin with bypass for the pres. This means I have 8 plugs in my patch bay that go straight in to converters. Well, 12 but whatever. This is useful.
  4. Perfect pitch: bagpipes into the dumpster with one quick heave.
  5. Capo will lower action and make playing easier. Tune down if you need to.
  6. My grandfather said, that's not music. My grandmother in the other side said if I ever wanted anyone to marry me I had to write happier songs and wear better shoes.
  7. I'm losing my j o b. Bummer. The day before I found out, I placed an order for this mic. https://microphone-parts.com/collections/microphones/products/v12-tube-microphone?variant=39889007542332
  8. Dave Matthew's did a tour with rusted root. They got tin whistles and played .so long it's been good to know ya. As RRs bus pulled away the last time.
  9. Nice point. His records were some of my first with Pete Seger and Phil ochs. I still know all the words to zillions of those songs. I was a junky.
  10. I watched the same video this week. They must be pushing it. It was a great watch. Another one I recently enjoyed was this...
  11. Pi hole This will fix you. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pi-hole I love you tube, and I pay 180 annually so neither me nor my family need to watch ads.
  12. I've learned you can't put your power amp on top of your computer at the tap at the bottom without really heating everything up a lot. I think I will slide it out from under the rack when using it.
  13. Space to the left isn't used for fires, but is at the bottom of a chimney. Might get rain water.
  14. Yay I got my 12u rack today! Boo I assembled it wrong. Yay I assembled it right! Now, it comes with a ground wire. Do you all ground your racks? I've never seen this before, but my racks have never been stationary.
  15. Ah. Nice idea but the skb case doesn't fit in the spot. It is a few centimeters too wide.
  16. I've ordered a 12u rack for home. I like to record out and take 6u when I go. Everything is wired together. I'm thinking of using blanks to get under all the ears and lift and move them between racks as a group... both racks laid on their backs so I lift and lower verticallyc all 6u without unhooking them from each other. I'm guessing someone here has faced an issue like this who can't just have doubles of all the hardware. Anyone got a better idea?
  17. @Jim Roseberry https://craiganderton.org/transient-tamer-diy-project/ I use one of these cables when recording direct and I think it really helps. Just sharing to be friendly... not trying to hijack the thread.
  18. I have a rme ucx. I've lusted for other newer interfaces but have never bought one because I just never have a need for more than 24 tracks at 44.1 which is what I can do locking an old Tascam to the spidf. Honestly, I rarely need more than the 16 the ucx does. It was a surprisingly good purchase for me.
