You MIGHT be able to find a Harrison ... -E I'm in the process of building my first project studio and am in need of some advice on what console to buy. I'm looking for something under $4k. I'm mostly concerned with the preamps and EQs, but I'm also needing to to take into consideration the routing ...

I second both. I use the Marshall and will switch to Avatars when the time comes. -E Try this Also, if you want used, you may want to look around for an old 80's Marshall 4x10 cab. I think their designation for it is a 1936A for the slant and 1936B for the straight front, though I'm not really sure ...

I saw someone mentioned Seb from Trans Am. I'm all for him, Kevin Coultas from Rodan, Loz from Ride and, seriously, my drummer, Pete Nuwayser. At almost every show we play I can hear people cheering as he pulls out these insane fills he drops like easter eggs in the middle of my li'l ol' pop songs. ...

I'm glad you posted this, because my post would've been really snarky.

I can't sort through all of these so: 1. Ruthie from Magnapop. 2. Girl from Fields; press photos aren't doing her justice.

The only full-on records I like are Daydream Nation, Murray Street and the new one. Call me conflicted. -E

A book, song, film, painting, photograph, etc. that made you cry like the wuss you are. Song wise: 1) Swervedriver's Duel ep when it came out (I'd feared I'd never hear them again and, frankly, I was a wreck emotionally, and possibly physically, at the time). 2) And, I THINK I actually cried while ...

Greg, have you/could you post some comments on the Serena Maneesh record? The usual gear/set up type stuff. I don't always love the material, but I dig most of it, and I really enjoy just listening to the thing. If you've already addressed this elsewhere, I'm sorry I couldn't find the thread. -E

I haven't used the Earthworks drum miking kit, but I have mic'd a drumset with three mics-- two of which were Earthworks. I've also used stereo TC30s infront of a drum set equidistant from the kick about a foot or two from the ground. I do the same, although I point the mics straight at the kit and...
