I have a small home studio setup where I`ve recorded local bands from time to time and just love to immerse myself in studio banter whenever I can – so as you can imagine I love listening to your show!
I just wanted to suggest that you all check out the dvd Cabin Fever by the Black Crowes if you haven`t already. I`m a long term fan of theirs who had lost my way a bit recently with their work but this latest is just incredible. The dvd is also quite interesting from a recoding point of view as it`s recorded live infront of a small audience at Levon Helm`s studio and has a spectacular sound. (Some bits are obviously footage of a different take – but most of it is true to take from what I can tell).
Also another quick recommendation is the psp sQuad eq plugins – just got them (60% reduction at the moment til 17th Jan) – and I`ve been really oimpressed with how well they`ve worked do far.
I`ll stop now – but many thanks for the shows.
Cheers,
Don.

For some reason this episode, Ryan is a lot louder than Jesse-listen to the playback. I WANT you guys to sound professional, and it bugs me when the mic levels are this unequal. I hope you’re able to correct this on future podcasts.
A question: I have a condenser mic and my Behringer mixer has Phantom power on it. What will a “mic-pre” do that phantom power won’t? Sounds like a mic-pre is a combination power and equalizer box.
Thanks guys!

Hey Rusty thanks for the comment
Guess who edited this episode…Ryan did! He loves the sound of his own voice. Just joking. Ryan is usually panned center with Jesse and I panned a bit to the side, he probably didn’t compensate for the increased level. I’ll make sure he’s lower in the next one.
As for the preamp. When we talk about preamps we’re referring to an external device that connects to our audio interface. These external boxes have many of the same features built into the audio interface inputs, but with much higher quality.
Phantom power is just one of the features in a mic preamp, though that’s one of the few things that doesn’t vary in quality, it just has to work.
[...] way. Hopefully you didn't get a dud. My friend recently got the Pre73.
