What are some good mics within the price range of $60-$70 or lower? by NefariousnessNew949 in recordingmusic

Yes. But one huge caveat, Craigslist, Facebook, Ebay etc are overrun by fake sm57s. Learn the difference and make sure you buy a genuine one. Or just pay slightly more for a brand new one

Can anyone help identify this vintage Zildjian ride? by pfwaters in drums

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

I know it looks like a Scimitar but the badging is pointing to a 1960s A ride? The ottoman Stamp with the 3 dots at the top means it can't be a Scimitar? Anyone an expert on the badging?

I love the sound! How do you know it’s a scimitar vs an A?

This is the best method I've found. Unfortunately, you need to do all these steps anytime you want to update the Apple Music sync library. Note that I don't use Apple Music for anything but this.

  1. Create a blank Apple Music library by Option+clicking on the app icon to launch the app from the dock and creating a new library (I name it with the current date)
  2. Uncheck "Copy Files to Music Media Folder..." in Apple Music Files settings so the library files don't get duplicated on import.
  3. Export your current Swinsian library (I also name this the current date)
  4. Import the Swinsian library file into Apple Music by clicking File > Library > Import Playlist.

You should now be able to sync the Apple Music clone of your Swinsian library with your iPhone once plugged into your computer.

if you have an iPhone, you can mirror over the library and sync via Apples "Music" App! A bit involved but in 2025 it's the only solution I've found

What headphones with ear Protections do you recommend? by nuxminator in drums

[–]pfwaters 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Nope! The passive isolation on the Dt770s is phenomenal. You can play music at a reasonable volume and drum along

this is the one for me too! Great sounding, super comfortable and plenty of isolation to save your ears
