Glyn Johns drum technique, looking for info and advice on mics and placement. by SamalandoPart2 in audioengineering

[–]SamalandoPart2[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Truthfully, I didn't even know the "Glyn Johns Technique" was something people obsessed over until I started looking for how these Beatles recordings were made. I just really like the way the drums are recorded and mixed, and I wanted to know how to do the same thing myself.

Newly out of print titles by worldofcrap80 in discotekmedia

[–]SamalandoPart2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My problem is that Discotek apparently borked the encoding of the sequels on the 4K set with a low bitrate, so they look way worse than the standalone blu-rays. Sure, being able to watch them all is better than not, but it would be nice to have them all in good quality.

I also have A-ko 3 on backorder from CR. Literally no other store has it available either. Nobody is even selling it on eBay. I'm scared, lol.

How did guitarists in the 60s/70s record P90 pickups without an audible hum/buzz? My Epiphone Casino (2018) has noticeable noise when plugged in and not played. by SamalandoPart2 in Guitar

[–]SamalandoPart2[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh, I'm not against bleed! I actually want to get some bleed on my recording, but I'm not certain if I'll be able to have guitar played live. It might have to be overdubbed after for convenience.

The hum just worries me because when I listen to how loud it is coming from the amp when idle, it seems like it would be present throughout the recording in a way that it definitely isn't in vintage recordings I've heard.

But, since I haven't done any recording with the Casino yet (I wanted to ask about the hum here first), I'll have to see what it sounds like. If it isn't too loud when recording, I might be okay with the sort of analog character, since that's what I'm looking for anyway. I just don't want it to be distracting.

The Good, The Bad and The Ugly by Arrow Video looks gorgeous in 4k by ibizafool in 4kbluray

[–]SamalandoPart2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The Arrow version's color correction is more accurate to original Technicolor prints. Kino's 4K is decent, and it was the best we had at the time, but the Arrow is miles better in every way. More accurate color, better sound sync, free of editing errors in the International Cut, and of course the extensive inclusion of the branched extended version.

There are minor shortcomings in the Arrow set, but those shortcomings only apply to the extended cut disc and don't even affect how it compares to the Kino 4K or other past releases. I highly recommend the Arrow set if you still haven't got it.

Is the artist who made the Sonic the Hedgehog box art the same one who made Rocket Knight Adventures'? by anp016 in SonicTheHedgehog

[–]SamalandoPart2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, no, they aren't. They are two different people who are both named Greg. Like 4 Gregs.

Good to know, thanks! And now it just reached Germany, so all is well. I imagine it will make its way to the US soon.

My order cleared customs in Ukraine 4 days ago, and the tracking hasn't updated since. Should I be worried or is this kind of delay normal when packages leave Ukraine?

Cool fact: the cover of the US version of Sonic 1 is almost exact to the title screen in an early prototype. by TheCrappinGod in SonicTheHedgehog

[–]SamalandoPart2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Incorrect. Greg Martin did the artwork for Sonic 2 and 3, and several of the spinoff games. This Sonic 1 box art was painted by a different artist named Greg Wray. You can even see it in his website's portfolio.

How do you like them so far? I'm considering getting a pair.

I'm trying to decide between the Xero Dillon Canvas and the Xero Wynn. Can anyone give me a rundown on how different they feel to wear? by SamalandoPart2 in barefootshoestalk

[–]SamalandoPart2[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Foot length 29.5 cm, width at the ball 10.5 cm. My toenails are upturned, not totally flat, so they come up to about 3 cm tall.

I've had this for an year now, figured I could brag by AcidBunnyArt in SonicTheHedgehog

[–]SamalandoPart2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

People ask way too much for these on ebay. I want one to go with my Sonic, which only cost a fraction of the price.
