Behringer XENYX X1204 USB mixer Review

---

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I have used this mixer both for recording and live shows, and am pretty satisfied with it, as it generally does what it is supposed to do. It does (despite adjusting the high and mid-tones) sometimes produce a tinnier sound than I'd prefer, but I can't be sure as to whether this is due directly to the mixer or to the sound systems it has been connected to. The USB-to-computer recording feature is convenient, but for certain instruments it is difficult to get enough volume output. However, it is important to note that I am by no means a professional sound engineer, and have a lot to learn about how to optimize my equipment. All told, there is a lot of music I wouldn't have been able to produce without this mixer, and I certainly couldn't beat the price.

PreSonus HP60 6-Channel Headphone Amplifier/Mixer Review

---

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)If you play live and your band is constantly complaining that they can't hear themselves in the mix, this is the perfect product to solve that. Lets back up...if you are a vocalist trying to hear yourself or to do harmonies, it is almost impossible if all you have is the main mix in your phones. This device allows you to take, say, the direct feed from your vocal channel and plug it into a stereo input...for each channel. The three singers in my band each have an output that they are able to mix into the main mix. The result: "more me" since my vocals are boosted above the other vocals and instruments. And you can't believe how much better you can sing when you can actually hear yourself.
Of course, the other vocalists can hear you too, but they can mainly hear themselves, so everybody can sing their parts without getting disoriented by the other vocalists
You get two stereo inputs for all the channels, and you can mix them together, so you could theoretically have a backing track mix on A and a click track on B. If the drummer needs the click, mix heavy toward B. If you are a singer and dont need to hear the click, mix heavy toward A. Then, boost your own personal direct signal from the mix board so that your vocals stand head and shoulders above the other stuff. NOW you can hear!!!
This is one of those products I'm constantly inventing in my head that don't exist, except that this one does, and with more features and flexibility than I ever would have imagined. Plenty of volume in the headphones, nice clean sound, and you can hook up six headphones to this thing, each with individual A/B track mix and "more me" mix input. Pricey, but worth it. This thing is a game changer. As the guy who usually gets the middle David Crosby part in the harmony matrix, I no longer get confused, off pitch, or lost. Bring it on...I can sing ANYTHING now...

"Turn my headphones up!" "More me, I can't hear myself!" "Turn down that click!" It gets old. Change that tune with the HP60 headphone distribution system. The HP60 is more than just a half-dozen headphone amps, it's a field-tested solution to a host of common headphone-monitoring problems. Let's start with "turn my headphones up." Each of the HP60's six headphone amps has its own level control and puts out 150 mW, which is loud enough to drive the alligators out of the Louisiana swamps. If they can't hear this headphone system, they're stone deaf. More likely they'll scream, "turn it down, you're killing me!" Problem solved. Now let's solve "turn down that click." The HP60 features two sets of line-level, stereo inputs that are routed to all six headphones, a Mix control that sets their relative levels for each headphone output, and a mute switch for each headphone. So you can feed the main control-room mix to channel A and the click to channel B and use the Mix controls to individually raise or lower the click relative to the main mix for each musician. Problem solved. As for "more me," in addition to the two pairs of main stereo inputs, you get an external stereo input pair with level control for each headphone channel. A Mono switch lets you sum the left and right inputs. So you can send each of the whiners a feed of just their instrument or voice and can control the level separately for each. Problem

Yamaha YPG-235 76-Key Portable Grand Piano Premium Pack Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)The keyboard and stand are fine, but the adapter must have had a defect or design flaw and busted the connector from the headphones, making them useless. I would look elsewhere for what you get for purchasing the premium pack.

If you’re looking for a reasonably priced piano replacement, look no further than the YPG-235. It is the music student or professional musicians’ answer to “I need more keys!" and many music teachers encourage new students to get a keyboard that will grow with their needs. It features 76 non-weighted keys that not only look like piano keys but have a Graded Soft Touch (GST) action with different levels of resistance, making it easier for a budding musician to move to an acoustic or digital piano.The YPG-235 delivers on its piano theme with a special mode of fingering called Full Keyboard Mode. This allows the player to play the keyboard like a piano; for example a chord with the right hand and bass notes with the left. When using the accompaniment feature, the virtual band will follow these chords. Traditional portable keyboards normally require you to chord on the left side of the keyboard, in the bass section, which is foreign to most piano players. The YPG-235 is also capable of this mode, for those who prefer it.The YPG-235 also has 30 built-in songs plus 70 more on included CD-ROM for you to learn to play using the Yamaha Education Suite. The songs are separated into left and right hand parts, providing 7 levels of lessons plus a convenient chord dictionary.This package includes a pair of professional closed-cup headphones, X-style keyboard stand, and power supply.

Gator Cases 6" Double layered, split level "pop" filter Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)The pop filter does its job well. I have had no issue with its ability to prevent unwanted pops. The quality on the other hand is not the best. I have to transport my mic setup often and have already had the snake portion of the assembly separate from the mount. It reattaches rather easily but it come loose every time I need to adjust the position of the shield. For the money it does its job. next time I will shop for a higher end product.

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I bought this Audio Snake to install for the sound system in our church. The two main reasons I choose this Snake was its leangth and the fact that it has XLR returns instead of TRS. The box is well made, durable and is ready to be mounted against a wall. So far we haven't had any trouble with any of the connections having loose wires like i have had with some other Snakes that I have worked with over the years. Overall I recomend this Snake for anywhere that it will have a permanent instalation.

PreSonus FaderPort USB Automation Controller Review

---

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)If you're looking to get away from mixing with your mouse and are looking to spend as little as possible... there are two big choices. PreSonus Faderport ($150) and Frontier Design Alphatrack ($200).
Faderport - PROS: PreSonus put most of their money into the fader... it's an alps fader used in many higher end consoles.
Nothing fancy. It is intuitive and to the point, but still has what I want and need... a good fader and transport control.
Easy to install.
Small.
CONS: Wall-wart. It is bus powered, but you need the AC adapter for fader automation.
You can only automate volume and pan. (protools user's! If you have a track selected with the faderport with pan automation, protools will lock to the pan control of the faderport and will not play back the written automation until you switch to another track. This is a known issue that PreSonus says they are working on for an upcoming firmware update.)
Alphatrack - PROS: Controls; volume, pan, EQ, plugins, and automation.
3 encoders instead of 1.
Jog and shuttle strip... (this is really cool.)
Bus powered.
LED screen with track/eq/plugin info.
CONS: NOT Intuitive... It took the guy at G***Center over 30 minutes just to get it to do anything. And after another 30 minutes could only get the fader, pan and transport controls to work. (I never did get to automate any plugins with it.)
The fader was sluggish and when it played back the automation in kinda shook and was loud. (check out youtube.com "faderport vs alphatrack" and see a side by side comparison.)
The LED screen was hard to navigate through and the user programmable controls (which only work with native software, not HUI emulation) are labeled F1- F8 which may take a while to remember.
Slightly bigger then faderport.
OVERALL: I went with the faderport. While there are a few quirky things I've had to deal with (in protools, so far it has worked great with sonar) it's still straight forward, serves its purpose and does what I need it to do. It gives me the ability to feel and touch a mix. The transport controls alone make it a great asset, not having to reach for the mouse every time I want to arm, mute, solo or record a track. As for the alphatrack, the fader on it alone was enough for me to steer clear. But, the fact that it was a fight to get it to work at all (and never saw it fully functioning) put me over the edge... I fight with enough stuff to keep everything running.

DJ Coffin for 2 X Pioneer / Denon / Technics CD Players Plus 12" Mixer with Wheels Review

---

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This case is absolutely exceptional in every way, except for one major problem... the mixer will not sit flush if you need to use XLR or 1/4" plugs, for there is simply not enough room between the rear of the mixer and the rear of the case. Had they made the case one inch wider, this would be a flawless product. As it stands now, I had to cut, with a utility knife, a few areas of the case's rear foam just so I could create enough room to facilitate my XLR plugs. How could they not think of this ahead of time? I am satisfied overall, simply because every other ambit of this product is flawless, but I wonder with amazement how RR didn't approach this problem.

M-Audio FireWire Audiophile Digital Audio Interface Review

---

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)My audio "system" is a Wife's Nightmare: 45 SE tube amp (about 1.5W), a DC Darling SE tube amp (about 0.75W), A 1626 p-p amp (~3 W), and a couple of EL84 P-P amps (Heathkit and Dynaco, about 15W each), plus a SONY TA-2000 "sand" preamp [truly excellent, BTW], a Phonodude tube preamp, a Quad 303 "sand" power amp, and a pair of 2A3 P-P mono-blocks under construction. Plus miscellaneous tuners, tables and assorted junk. Wires literally everywhere.
All this low-wattage stuff drives a pair of Altec A-7 clones (811 horns and University 15" HC woofers with ONLY a 6dB high-pass filter using big PP caps; NO low pass filter, just natural drop-off of the woofers). Speaker efficiency is about 103-106dB/W at one meter, so 1 W is all you really need indoors. You audionuts will also recognize that this also means that I can hear ANYTHING and EVERYTHING (clicks, buzz, hum, thumps, etc) with these speakers, so any coloration from the equipment will show-up in spades.
If you can understand all that audio gibberish, you'll recognize that I am (a) nuts, and (b)probably pretty good with a soldering iron and oscilloscope. Guilty on both counts.
Since my teenagers are iPod fanatics, I discovered that Apple iTunes has a proprietary coding called Apple Lossless, which allows you to rip stuff to a hard-disk in ~half the space of a CD with no loss of audio data. So as a digital music experiment I sprung for a 512Meg 40 Gig Mac Mini and added a CHEAP 200 Gig Seagate external disk. The Mac is tiny and essentially noiseless; seemed perfect for the application.
I got the M-Audio Firewire as a soundcard for the Mac Mini, figuring I could use it with any of our PCs if the Mac experiment didn't work-out. Web reviews seemed uniformly excellent so I didn't think there was much risk.
NOW one side of the giant home-built audio table is digital; MAC Min w/ Seagate 200 G HD, old keyboard and small LCD, and the M-Audio Audiphile Firewire. The M-Audio Audiophile is usually hooked to the Sony TA-2000 preamp BOTH in and out, with the Heavy Iron (vacuum tube stuff) on the lower shelves. We have about 12 DAYS of music in there now. DAYS, I said.
To rip vinyl to the MAC I use ClickRepair and Amadeus programs [both highly recommended and VERY easy to learn]. The Sony allows monitoring with any of the power amps and the ALTEC speakers, or I can use headphones plugged into the SONY OR the Firewire.
To play digital, we just click on the iTunes and switch the Sony to AUX.
This set-up literally allows me to compare computer digital (thru firewire)with CD player (a moderate priced Sansui) with "real" vinyl (currently from Thorens 318 table with various cartridges; not fancy but pretty nice).
The sound from the Firewire is completely colorless, as near as I can tell. That's high praise, coming from a Tube Guy.
Comparing digitized (er, RIPPED) vinyl to REAL vinyl is VERY interesting, as SOMETIMES(e.g. a high quality disc but with bad scratches) the ripped version played through the Firewire is more enjoyable than the "real" thing, as the S/N ratio is way better and much of the vinyl qualities seem to remain, especially if you're conservative with the digital doctoring (leaving-in the minor vinyl glitches, that is).
Some mono vinyl (esp. RCA Shaded Dogs)ripped with this set-up are simply terrific; one Anna Moffo disk of various Arias is a real stand-out with nice crisp upper registers, great depth, and the rustle of sheet music that you can't hear on the "straight" vinyl. The tube stuff and the Altecs probably don't hurt, but I figure that the Firewire's got to be performing very well too for this to happen, doesn't it?
I've had the Firewire for a couple of months, but I am writing the review NOW because the system just passed the ultimate test this evening; when I came home from work, the wife had powered-up the system herself (this alone requires a BSEE, a wiring diagram, and a flashlight. Rubber boots are a nice accessory, too)and was playing Ritchie Havens' "Here Comes The Sun" at full volume. Wow. Woodstock III (or whatever number we Boomers are up to now) right in the driveway. Very cool. Rock on, Garth.
Buy one. Only a few more $ than a good internal card, but works with any computer with a 1394 Firewire connection. Looks terrific, nice rugged construction (almost tube-worthy). Easy to install (warning labels ARE a little much, though), and once installed, just sits there and works great.
Gotta go play some ripped vinyl.

PreSonus Monitor Station Studio Control Center Review

---

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Although of sturdy metal construction, mine had a soft foot, which was fixed with a little physical persuasion and a some extra rubber on the one slightly elevated corner. The rubber alone would probably have done it. Low on extra rubber feet and patience, both worked out just fine. So it also passed a stress test with flying colors. Hopefully there won't be a drop test.
Anyway, I'm really surprised how useful this item became after purchasing it. Recording directly to a computer was leading to a problem with interfacing multiple inputs and outputs. I was considering an internal PCI solution with an external harness, but even then, the tether was looking really short and I didn't want to have to crawl behind the computer for every time I switched ins or outs.
Monitors are great for mixing, but usually pretty sparse on bass. Not having a trained ear, or used to monitors, it's extremely convenient to be able to get a bass reference at the push of a button. "This is how it sounds stark clear and honest ". At the push of a button "this is how it sounds with sub-woofer and how I'm used to hearing music". I still need that crutch for leveling bass guitar and kick drums. Granted I'm a novice, but if there is any influence of the purity of the source sound, I certainly can't hear it.
There are two (left/right), 1/4" "ST1"/"ST2" and one RCA (left/right) inputs (The aux input has it's own "input" level adjustment. I'm using one for my sound interface mains MOTU UltraLite-MK3 Hybrid FireWire/USB2 Audio Interface , one for the return and the aux RCAs, on an old mixing deck.
Both the the "Main and "Cue"outputs, have individual options of using any combination of the three "ST1", "ST2", or "AUX (RCA) " inputs. The "Cue" mix has it's own main level knob and the large center knob, controls the level for the whole unit. In addition there are three dedicated "A", "B", "C", outputs. Each has it's own level adjustment, so there's no problem keeping consistent volumes with different speaker sets, monitors etc 8" Monitor Speaker . There are four, 1/4" stereo headphone jacks, each with a button selecting either "Main or "Cue" as the source, with individual level knobs for each. The internal microphone works great across the cue mix, which also has it's own individual level adjustment and an XLR adapter is provided on the back, for an external "Talk" microphone.
I'm extremely satisfied with this unit and regardless of any upgrades I may have in the future, as long as I'm dealing with any analog source whatsoever, I can see it being invaluable for years to come.

Mackie SRM450v2 122-way Compact SR Loudspeaker Review

---

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)While the SRM-450V2s are not inexpensive, they do deliver quality sound. I used 2 of these for an outdoor gig and the music output was evenly dispersed with clear highs and mids and with punchy bass. My only regret was that some of the MP3s I played were encoded with bitrates of only 128kbps, such that the compression levels' musical deficiencies were exposed by the clarity of these SRM450V2.
My advice would be to use a good mixer with balanced XLR cables and a nice CD deck (to play CDs of course!)as well. You would also be well-served by using a subwoofer to augment the low frequencies, especially if you crave body-stopping and head-pounding bass.
These second-gen SRM450s are also 11 pounds lighter than the first-gens.
Pros:
1. powerful and clear sound output, with even and wide dispersion. This translates into wide coverage and most people being surprised to find just a couple of speakers putting out such huge sound.
2. relatively lightweight, considering its dimensions
3. sturdy construction
Cons:
1. I can't find one yet.
The other brands I've checked out (powered speaker cabinets only): JBL EONs, Peaveys, Behringer Eurolive Series either are not much of a value relative to the Mackies ( JBL EONS sound just as good as Mackies but are more expensive) while for the Peaveys and Behringers - somehow, the sound they put out was flat and hollow. The Mackies have a "full" sound. Try listening to these at your local music supply store.

Microphone Cables XLR 50' (6 Pack) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)These mic cables are an incredible bargain! For less than $15 each, I figured I would get what I paid for. These cables are very high quality, though. The cable itself is nice and thick, with more of a pliable rubber feel than the stiff plastic types most cables are. The ends are very high quality, and are connected to the cable with a very solid, flexible boot, so you can be sure that it would take a lot to break a connection. I gig regularly with these cables, and am extremely happy with this purchase.
