**OFFICIAL ANNOUNCEMENT--Brad Lyons IS at GC PRO**

Hey everyone! A few have discussed (and I've confirmed) that I am now with GC PRO in Atlanta, Georgia. Well I wanted to make the "official announcement" that yes, it's true---I am now part of the GC PRO team with my office located inside the Guitar Center down in Atlanta, Georgia. I've re...

Re: AES in San Fran

Monkey, Well sort of---they just sit in their cars on the highways!!! Oh the traffic is HORRIBLE. Fortunately I don't have to fight it often as I have two offices: ONE at Guitar Center and the other in my house. I'm learning when to and not to take the highways :-) MH, thanks for the nice words and ...

Re: AES in San Fran

Well at least you'll save on other expenses :-) I've not been to the AES show in years, so looking forward to it (it's my favorite show).

Re: Are you guys using AD/DA conversion? What's best?

Honestly, for me a recommendation from a handful of engineers I truly respect, plus my own listening tests and a few hours of working with the gear, have always been more important than measurements... so if I am shopping for any gear, I call John Rodd, Ronan Chris Murphy or my mastering engineer, ...

Re: Are you guys using AD/DA conversion? What's best?

A friend of mine has a home studio that is based on M-Audio Fast Track and Protools. He got in over his head on a project and I offered to help him finish it. He brought his M-Audio unit and a laptop with all his project files. No matter what we did we couldn't get a good mix. I talked him into exp...

Re: Microsoft in talks to buy Adobe

From what I'm hearing about FCP4 is a completely new interface with editing and a re-write---I hope that is true, I don't like certain aspects of FCP but use it heavily.

Re: Are you guys using AD/DA conversion? What's best?

DA conversion is one of the most important things to any studio, yet for home studios is rarely of the most concern. Instead too many get caught up in the best mics, pres, A/D converters, etc.....well that too is VERY important of course, but you can only hear what you are able to hear. In other wor...

Re: New RME Fireface UFX audio interface

I remember when RME came out, no one heard of them---but there were these reports of latency less than 5ms and even 3ms which in those days was unheard of! They've grown from the new kid on the block to a leader and have some really nice high-end solutions to offer. For awhile I wasn't exactly thril...

Re: Moved to Atlanta, GA (pretty big news actually)

Don, Nice area---I originally looked at a few homes over there but ultimately settled up in BUFORD. The area is amazing! The times that I will be traveling, traffic has been easy---but this week I'll be in there early so I'll be hitting heavy traffic, I'm sure. My new email address and phone number ...

Re: Moved to Atlanta, GA (pretty big news actually)

Buzz, I can selling water to a drowning man :-) Seriously though---some might think "no garage"? Well I've put two cars in that garage and there was NO ROOM FOR ANYTHING---even trying to open up a car door to get out was a nightmare. So who needs a garage? There was still plenty of storage...
