no my recording computer is still in the sh*t
I have not given up but I devoted 4 days to a new system last week that still did not do resolve.
I need to give it a rest before I continue
Al, I feel your pain...my PC (one of the fastest and supposedly best) is giving me fits...I've tried almost everything...a drop from a high bridge may work...

I just got another D18, a 35. Not that I needed one...........
Since when was "need" a part of the equation for buying another guitar...lol
Congrats Beal, I'll bet it's a cannon...

Al, for what you paid for that mic you could have bought a nice new computer.

yes but the MOTU card I have will only work on a p4 with an intel chipset so I have to try to salvage some old MB's to try to get this whole thing to work

easy is not in my vocabulary.

btw looking at a tlm 127 today

Al, for CFS you SPECIALIZE in selling vintage gear! Get rid of that crap, buy an entry level non-PC and an Apogee Duet firewire interface and you'll be up and running before lunch. Think of what you could do (and money you could make) with all the extra time you'll have on your hands. At some point you gotta admit enough is enough ...

I'll give a shout out to the Apogee Duet. VERY COOL UNIT. I really don't know crap about this stuff all I remember at last years Amelia visit Matt said something off the cuff like "just get an apogee and you're done". That was good enough for me. I looked at the 8 channel model for 2 grand and the 2 channel model for 400. Easy choice. Hey I've only got 2 hands so how many channels do I need. Answer is 2. The Duet works extremely well, is completely integrated with Logic and Maestro. Double thumbs up as far as I'm concerned.

Matt uses a PC. The Duets are excellent for the money.

Al, I would definitely be interested in hearing your comparison of the U87 to the TLM127 once you get your rig up and running.

The old vs the new!


(or if you get frustrated just hop on a plane and come out to my place and we will fire them up in the project studio!)

I would love to compare them to my Blue Bottle with the various caps that are suppose to emulate the U87 and other classics.

On one side, I'm too subtle. Then there's Al at the opposite end of the scale. Subtle as a brick. It's hard to believe our ancestors came from the same country.

Al, the box of Neumann mics that I mentioned in an earlier post contained 2 TLM-170s, and 4 km-84s. This is meaningless to me, but may mean something to knowledgeable gearheads like yourself.
