Warm Audio WA76 Limiting Amplifier - "Warm Audio gives me the warm fuzzies"
I have been using less expensive equipment in my project studio for years now and my recordings have sounded... thin to say the least. I recently found out about Warm Audio WA-76 from my music stor…
Teac A-3300SX - "Teac A 3300sx "
I own 2 of these brilliant machines, both serviced when bought. Professional sound almost as good as my Fostex or Revox. I own quite a few reel to reel but I think the Teac is easy to use, the record…
JTS CX-509 - "Great for overheads and instrument-miking"
I found this mic by pure chance, while I'd known the CX-516 and 508 for long. I now own four pairs of it. I use it live, for overheads or to mike instruments up. Very sensitive -like all condense…
Behringer XR12 - "Small but mighty"
Just received it and gave it a quick try. It weighs under 6 lbs, I got it to replace a xenius2222fx mixer, 2x15 and 2x31 equalizers, a stereo compressor, all in a flightcase + current supply. I u…
Behringer XR18 - "A logical evolution for huge results ! Analog mixers are going to suffer while bands will love it."
I bought this compact gear as part of a sound system for my small, 5 to 7 band with several acoustic instruments, drums and sax. I own the RACK XR 18 version. Really small, but a huge result. The 6…
Oktava ML 52-2 - "Oktava ML 52-2 Ribbon Microphone"
Took a chance on the ML52-2 Ribbon and in a word, "Psyched". I mostly record acoustic and electric guitars in combination with my Neumann and AKG C414's. I set the Oktava quite a distance from the ac…

SSL Matrix - "SSL Matrix "
Hi, I owned this mixing console for 3 years. It was interesting to have and learn to use such a hardware. I personally consider it to be for knowledgeable and experienced users only, as it's not…
Sony MXP-290 - "Old, but good"
-For what kind of music do you use this product? ? I personally use it for electronic music (Industrial). There's no reason which wouldn't allow to use it for "extreme" (if I may say so) styles...…
Midas VeniceF VF16 - "What a beautiful console!"
I've had it for one day... Came from an Allen ZED14 which lacked "In"s for our blues band. First use in rehearsal yesterday evening, no time for precise settings and yet it immediately delivered a g…
Focal Alpha 65 - "Excellent studio Monitors"
First, these seem well made, and sounded the best to my ears during auditions when doing a/b with other monitors. I recommend testing speakers with recorded music you know WELL; preferably something…
Waves L2 UltraMaximizer - "Very good product"
This ‘ultramaximizer’ (essentially a look-ahead stereo mastering limiter) is the only digital unit to make the cut. Compression is one of those areas where DSP-based units have traditionally been not…
Evans (Sound Creator) ES-5 - "Great!"
I use the Evans as my main echo in the studio and live for "roots" Dub. In addition to looking good, it's sturdy. Speed is stabe, less unpredictible than a RE201 as far as the wow and compatible tape…
AKG C 414 B-ULS - "Theres' a reason this mic is considered a classic!"
Bought a mini condition B-ULS for my male vocals and acoustic guitars. Fantastic sounding mic. No EQ needed for my voice. Simply perfect. Small mic with a big sound. I've had so many large diaphragm …
Schoeps BLM3 - "Schoeps mics -- always the right choice"
You simply can't go wrong with Schoeps microphones, and their long history in the film and recording industry is fascinating. They have extremely low self-noise levels, very low distortion, and super…
