Fantastic!!

finally finished a thing I wanted to do for a long time.

a bench test set up for the Studer 960.. Series channels.
I used a JLM Audio 5 rail powersupply.
this will make repairing and calibrating the channels much easier.

have any of you mastered an EP or album within Reaper? if so, i'm curious how you set it up when doing multiple songs. like are you just mastering each song separately in its own Reaper project, and then rendering the mastered versions and listening to how they all work with each other as a collect...

I can't think of a single time where I've used it. That's what my EQ plugins are for.

Yeah that’s what I thought too. Thanks!

I built mine in 2006, when I had access to a CNC engraver, so I used it to manufacture the boards from the gerber files. I used OEP transformers, which were the cheaper suggested alternatives. This was definitely a budget build. Great, thanks Nate! I just saw that JLM Audio offers a tube power supp...

That TG thing looks really cool, esp the line input. When I was reprocessing a vocal last night I ran it back through a 1073-style preamp at line level on the lower impedence setting. It helped EQ’d and saturate the track a hair and made it sound more ‘vintage’ without congesting the voice, which i...

we a have a Grace 103 at work. It sounds good, extremely neutral but really clean, but the build quality feels really plasticy and cheap. I was surprised buy it. Oh, I meant the Chandler preamp. Not so plasticy but in the same (crazy) price range! It is getting wild what people are willing to pay f...

Yeah, I have a master volume on my Gyraf G9 clone and being able to drive the tubes hard is where the fun is. Building a G9 might be my project for 2025. did you build yours with pre made PCBs or did you make your own version? What about the in- and output transformers, did you use the suggested Lu...

Oh and maybe a master volume right before the output might be a nice feature. Wouldn’t that allow you to drive the tubes into saturation and then reduce the output level accordingly? Yeah, I have a master volume on my Gyraf G9 clone and being able to drive the tubes hard is where the fun is. Buildi...
