    Need second pair of ears, lend me yours!

    Hi guys, I need some opinions on this mix/master I'm doing for a client of mine, as I've lost perspective after couple of hours: I wasn't aiming for a typical modern sound, rather more into Sylosis-type of vibe. Lemme know what's wrong with it!

    Windows 8 and RME Fireface 400

    So here's the deal. I'm currently running a Dell XPS m1530 c2d laptop with 32bit Windows Vista. The Fireface 400 is connected via Manhattan expresscard firewire interface and works solid. I'm thinking about upgrading the OS to Win 8 64bit, mainly to increase performance (got 4g of RAM) plus it's...

    Classic thrash with Metallica vibe

    First song from a client of mine, that's the final mix I made and I want to make sure it doesn't hurt ears before I'll send it to him. So is everything in place? Because I cant hear shit anymore.

    Chooka Parker

    Dudes from Oz had probably heard about this fellow, but it's interesting enough I figured I'll post it. If everything what has been said there is true... I don't know what to think. Kid is brilliant, not only great pianist but talented and tasteful musician. I'm sure he'll be great one day.

    Reaper/SSD EX 3.5 rendering issue

    Posted this on Slate forums already but I guess it's worth giving a shot here aswell. After rendering the drums, they tend (especially crashes/rides) to randomly, individually dropout. Heres a sample: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/2920981/ssdissue.mp3 It's present only on a printed file, none...

    Hughes & Kettner TUBE 50 - any good?

    I'm looking for an amp but I don't have much to spend, found this fellow that is within my budget. Is it going to work in modern metal and drop tunings (check the link in my signature)?

    Hey folks! I've finally found some cool guys to start a band with, and we recorded a 4 song EP called "Beneath The Burden Of Haven". It's a sort of modern-metal-prog, tuned to drop-G#. There are real drums slightly blended with some Slate goodness. I did all the tracking, editing and...

    Sinn7 gear?

    http://www.sinn7.com/ I'm seeing quite a lot of their gear at various stores, it's pretty afordable so im curious if it represents any quality. Any of you guys had any experience with it? Since I'm looking for some budget-decent monitors, do you think that these DieBox.5 could be any good?
