    PCM-42 Won't Modulate

    PCM42 "modulation" is a different one! Back in those days most DDLs didn't modulate the delay time. The VCO would sweep the sampling frequency which in turn would shift the pitch of the input signal. Because of this technique the chorusing can be used with moderation as it gets wild as soon as...

    Jose + Rack | Can't get more 80s than this!

    Great rig, Eddie! A word of caution.... the Roland SDE-3000 are known about problems in the power section. It gets hot and easily breaks... and is VERY hard to replace. I suggest you keep a free space on top of each one to help preventig the issue.

    Considering selling the Big Rig

    Zach WTF, man? Really? I can't believe my eyes reading this! I understand youm oved and all... but hey... it may be worth being more cautious now and not take any big decision. Settle down and see how things go there... gigs will come back and you never know. I know a lot of people who did what...

    Best high end strat for the money?

    In 1993 I was on serious hunt in L.A. for a good Strat, willing to spend a couple of Gs for it. Tried everything... from any boutique "you name the brand" ones to anything else. Dozens!!! All of them missed something I wanted... could be the neck feel or the pickups sound or else... so I gave...

    Getting a good base line sound in DAW

    In my experience NO PLUG sounds like a well recorded amp or a nice analog preamp, designed for the job, going D.I. A lot of people ask me how do I get my recorded tones... the answer is always the same: -guitar thru TECH21 PSA-1 preamp running balanced D.I. thru a Mackie mixer with hardware efx...

    USB Microphones

    Use a regular mic. USB will also add USB latency.

    Help needed with TC Quintessence Harmonizer - detune effect

    Adding delay doesn't add pitch detuning at all. But it looks the editor has some tricks to get there. You should try it.

    Help needed with TC Quintessence Harmonizer - detune effect

    I'm afraid you can't do a simple detune on that TC pedal. It looks like a scales based pitch shifter using intervals- A detune runs on a few cents up or down to slightly get that pleasant out of tuneness once blended with the dry sound. Unless the editor allows detuning, which I doubt, this is...

    Mixer help - PCM80, Eclipse, SM10

    Allen & Heath are nice! So are Mackie and Soundcraft, particularly those made in US and UK. Get something with 4 Aux Sends, NO less. You can do a LOT more on a mixer as it's a real musical instrument. An example out of many.... take any digital delay made in the '70s and early '80s, be it...

    Mixer help - PCM80, Eclipse, SM10

    I STRONGLY recommend you to get a different mixer! If this setup is meant to be used with your recording station...I'd really go for a desktop mixer over the rack one... which is "ok" for a stage rig. The desktop one sounds much better and gives you a lot more routing possibilities. There are...

    From an interesting 1996 Lexicon document: "In 1969 MIT Professor Dr. Francis Lee developed a digital delay unit for heartbeat monitoring. Together with engineer Chuck Bagnashi he founded the company American Data Sciences, with offices over the Lexington Savings Bank in Lexington, MA. The...

    New Eventide Pitchfactor Day! Review included!

    Digital Delays from that era and following years, say from the very first ones to the 1980s models, were ALL a mixture of analog and digital technology and so the first H models. DSPs are a mid '80s thing, when VLSI chips became available for good prices. So what was analog back then? The audio...
