Thanks to you all for the positive comments about the Frankfurt videos!
Hi cvighals,
Me and my band have a studio, and we are wondering about buying an Audix d6 for the bass drum. How is the Audix compared to the akg d112 that we have already? (That is of course if you are familiar with the d112)
I've been pleased with the Audix D6 especially in combination with the Shure SM91. I've used the AKG 112 many times but never owned one.
Hi Bleen
Watching the videos from the Messe clinic, I notice you have your Powerbook/MacbookPro on a cushion/pillow. Do you ever have issues with it overheating when resting on a surface like that for a long time?
I haven't had problems with it overheating - although I can't believe how hot it gets sometimes. I've had problems with vibration upsetting the hard drive. I'm not convinced the pillow is the best way to stop that - but it seems to help a bit.
Hi Drizzle
I saw your new drumset and I noticed that in the specs you mention 4 toms and 3 floor toms.
But in the pictures I only see 3 toms and 2 floor toms.
Does this mean you sometimes change your tom set-up?
I wanted to have the most flexible possibilities in my set ups. Sometimes I'll use the 8,10,12 on top - then sometimes I might want 10,12,13 - or any combination of the toms. Same story with the floor toms. Maybe I'd like to use a 13 tom and a 15" floor - sometimes a 14 floor is too small and a 16 floor is too big. I've been in sessions with a 10,12,16 combo and the gap to the 16 was too much. There's so many different musical situations - I just wanted to try to cover what my inspiration might dream up for any song - or gig or tour.
Hi Burchie,
Love you work!!!! Any idea when the dates for the Australian leg of your tour will be announced??
I don't know when we're coming to Australia - sometime soon I hope. Any chance you could move it a bit closer to us?
Cheers
Gavin
