896 mk3 --- Discontinued?

Many apologies if this has been discussed before. I'm looking to buy an 896 mk3 and since last month I can't find one. Guitar Center says it's "discontinued"; Sweetwater says it's "backordered". I really want a new one with warranty and so on, for a mobile recording project in a ...

Oktava ML-52's are underrated. The Oktava ML-19's that Taylor at the Sound Room sells are even better. I've never heard of anyone getting a bad mic from the Sound Room. (www.oktava.com) ML-19's are no longer made, a friend just got one from the sound room that I think is from the early 80's. They so...

I saw an Ubuntu Linux box the other day and was completely blown away. Amazing what Linux has developed into. And all done by individuals around the world with little or no profit motive. It's the future of computing, for sure. It's not as "fringe" as some may think. The main factor agains...

Yeah, it's "an exciting time to be alive". Too bad Apple's environmental record (pollution, etc.) is one of the worst. Perhaps they could lead the world in an environmentally sane dream someday too, it certainly fits their image.

Anyone used Le Synthe (EMS Synthi emulator)?

http://www.macmusic.org/news/view.php/lang/EN/id/2681/ I love this emulator. It's buggy and unstable on my system, seizing up after a few minutes under certain conditions. But the sound! The glories of the interface! It took me an hour and a half to get a decent sound out of the patching matrix, bu...

True, the audiophiles have helped keep vinyl alive, and high grade digital formats, I'm glad they're there. it is kinda limited to the field of music innit? can we think of any other industries that do this? i cant think of any.

Just to chime in here... Nothing, NOTHING is worth having anything with DP4 or my g5 screwed up in any way just so I can try some new effect. And regardless of whether the plug is a compressor or eq or whatever, to the way I work, the vast majority of plugs are "effects" and not necessitie...
