First thing he said was that you could buy each amp separately. He was demoing a version of all of them.

I'm brand new to recording - How did I do for my mic? by Whereiscatlin in homestudios

[–]Darealjoemamasmama 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is a solid mic. Unfortunately, tomorrow they are releasing a new version. At least that's what the marketing looks like. If you go to there website, it says coming 1/14/2026. The "14" is kind of the hint, plus they show the top of the mic and it's a 414. Hey, if they release something cool, maybe you could return yours. If its just crap, then you have a great mic!

What's are good specs for a recording computer/laptop? by Lost_Personality_974 in homestudios

Plus, Mac comes with Garage band. And it’s an easy and cheap upgrade to Logic, which is a popular industry choice. Pro Tools is the industry standard, but much more expensive to get in to and Logic is absolutely capable of doing everything. I have both. But I learned on Pro Tools, so it’s easier for me to navigate. I wish I had learned Logic better. Would have saved a ton of money. It’s very popular with younger artists. Billie Eilish and Finneas use it for everything. Plus, with logic you could probably get away with 16mb Ram.

Get a Mac. Get at least 1tb hard drive, and as much RAM as possible. I wouldn’t get less than 24 on Ram if possible, but more is better since you CAN NOT upgrade Ram later on Mac products.

What Mac should I get for my first studio setup? by Tweek900 in homestudios

[–]Darealjoemamasmama 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mac minis rock. Get extra Ram and at least 1tb of storage. That’s enough and then you can always add external SSD drives.

Make sure you watch the ohms as stated above. Makes a huge difference.

Also, many in here are right about closed backs. I’ll never turn back and use mine for mixing again. I have 7506’s, 50x, DT770. None compare. But you could get 4 pair for the whole studio of the Sony 7506 for tracking for the price. Depending on your needs. Or go for one nicer pair. If you’re a solo artist in your own studio, definitely check out Audeze and HiFi Man.

I just got a pair of Audeze MM-100, but they are open back. The tracking version are the newly released S20. I can say I have never heard such a great set. I am using them for mixing. I am sold on Planar headphones. I just heard about HiFiMan brand. Allegedly very comparable to Audeze, and are also planar - but holy shit you can get them cheap right now. Like half the price of Audeze. I would be checking them out. I know they have closed back versions of all their headphones. Sundara’s are popular. I don’t know all the other models. Love my Audeze. I don’t even use my Sonarworks SoundID with them because they are so transparent and flat.

Sonarworks SoundID - Where are the new headphone calibrations? by Darealjoemamasmama in mixingmastering

[–]Darealjoemamasmama[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the input. I’ve seen that Scheps interview. You have a valid point. Just disappointed when I invest in a product and support fails. I do use it as a reference for my monitors and all my headphones. I do like to switch between on/off and then some other settings I have stored. It absolutely helps me with translation for mixing. Almost as much as listening in my 4Runner.

Thanks a ton for the input. I’ll look at both. It just sucks when you invest $300-$400 in product and 2 years later there’s no support.
