| enbloc^ | some PPA I'm on (studio related in some fashion) upgraded my kernel to 3.0 and broke all kinds of stuff. Ring any bells with folks here? | 00:13 |
|---|---|---|
| enbloc^ | I do have a 3.0.0 low latency kernel installed today, and I didn't do it manually | 00:14 |

| FloatingGoat | Hey holstein | 00:46 |
| FloatingGoat | You like unity? | 00:46 |
| FloatingGoat | Hi | 01:17 |
| holstein | FloatingGoat: hello | 02:11 |
| holstein | i do not use unity | 02:11 |
| holstein | i like the idea of it, it just seems to be answering a question im not asking | 02:12 |
| FloatingGoat | Haha | 02:16 |
| FloatingGoat | Holstein | 03:48 |
| FloatingGoat | Might be gettin a mxl new for 50 | 03:48 |
| holstein | not bad | 03:49 |
| FloatingGoat | And then imma look at a shure sm58 | 03:49 |
| holstein | 58 is probably a better first mic | 03:49 |
| holstein | if you only had one mic... might should be a 58 or a 57 | 03:50 |
| holstein | i like the beta series a lot | 03:50 |
| holstein | the beta 58 is very nice... | 03:50 |
| FloatingGoat | Ill see what goes down. But I want to get the mxl and the sshure. | 04:01 |
| FloatingGoat | I'm glad you like the shure though | 04:01 |
| holstein | well, the shure 57's and 58's are industry standards | 04:02 |
| holstein | typically *not* for recording though | 04:02 |
| holstein | still, if it were my money, i would rather have a 57 than a $50 condenser mic | 04:02 |
| holstein | but, ive already heard both | 04:02 |
| holstein | used them | 04:02 |
| holstein | live and for recording purposes | 04:03 |
| FloatingGoat | Well a professional I just talked to told me it'd be good so ill check it out. | 04:03 |
| holstein | FloatingGoat: what would be good? | 04:03 |
| holstein | a professional what? | 04:04 |
| holstein | the MXL $50 condenser would be good? | 04:04 |
| holstein | it will most definitely *not* be good | 04:04 |
| holstein | it will be tolerable at best | 04:04 |
| holstein | a 57 is really good at what it does | 04:04 |
| FloatingGoat | Musiscian. He was reaally good. Well he suggested the shure sm58 that's why I brought it up | 04:04 |
| holstein | works as advertise | 04:04 |
| holstein | d | 04:05 |
| holstein | FloatingGoat: if you have a local recording studio, ask to take a tour | 04:05 |
| holstein | there are brands you will *not* see in a studio | 04:05 |
| holstein | mxl is one of those brands | 04:05 |
| FloatingGoat | And then he told.mw he'd sell.me an mxl | 04:05 |
| FloatingGoat | I want two mica | 04:05 |
| holstein | FloatingGoat: lol | 04:06 |
| holstein | why do you think he's selling that mxl ;0 | 04:06 |
| holstein | anyways.. do what you want | 04:06 |
| FloatingGoat | In my studio you'll see it! :D | 04:06 |
| FloatingGoat | And 50 bucks is nothin so id | 04:06 |
| holstein | im just telling you... i have personally purchased simliar technology | 04:06 |
| holstein | and all i can say is... dont wast your money | 04:06 |
| holstein | put that $50 with $50 more and get a 57 | 04:07 |
| FloatingGoat | Itt would bye good for secondary and backup | 04:07 |
| holstein | FloatingGoat: the only thing that mic is going to be "good" for is a paper weight | 04:07 |
| holstein | it'll be tolerable at best | 04:07 |
| FloatingGoat | And add 50 dollars andni got a good mic.with an okay mic | 04:07 |
| holstein | that at2020 is resonable | 04:08 |
| holstein | the rodeNT1A too | 04:08 |
| holstein | anyways.. | 04:08 |
| FloatingGoat | I've heard an mxl and I don't exactly hate it | 04:08 |
| FloatingGoat | I don't want to sell my kidney for a mic lol | 04:09 |
| holstein | sure... its better than a sharp stick in the eye | 04:09 |
| holstein | its just... a rodeNT1a is not *that* much more | 04:09 |
| holstein | especially if you dont waste that $50 | 04:09 |
| FloatingGoat | How much? | 04:09 |
| holstein | i can only speak from experince FloatingGoat | 04:09 |
| holstein | if you dont like your current gear, and want better quality stuff | 04:10 |
| holstein | get better stuff | 04:10 |
| FloatingGoat | Yeah I trust you mate | 04:10 |
| holstein | i purchased a lot of interfaces | 04:10 |
| holstein | they didnt work out | 04:10 |
| holstein | same rationale | 04:10 |
| holstein | "well, its just $80" | 04:10 |
| holstein | "hey, $250... maybe that'll do" | 04:10 |
| holstein | nope | 04:10 |
| holstein | i like the interface i paid $400 for | 04:11 |
| holstein | but, im not doen shopping | 04:11 |
| holstein | i feel like the 57 i have, i'll always use for something | 04:11 |
| holstein | the condenser mic i bought years ago for $150 | 04:11 |
| holstein | some *much* higher end MXL | 04:11 |
| holstein | i gave to a friend in a trade ASAP | 04:12 |
| FloatingGoat | What's up with the stars? | 04:12 |
| holstein | FloatingGoat: if i saw that MXL mic for $20 used, i would get it... maybe | 04:12 |
| holstein | if i needed a condenser mic... outside or something | 04:13 |
| holstein | FloatingGoat: stars? | 04:13 |
| FloatingGoat | Yeah the *stars* | 04:14 |
| holstein | FloatingGoat: you see the *difference* | 04:14 |
| holstein | makes it *bold* | 04:14 |
| holstein | _underlined_ | 04:14 |
| holstein | this is the mic i had | 04:15 |
| holstein | http://www.mxlmics.com/products/Studio_mics/V67g/v67g.html | 04:15 |
| holstein | its much cheaper now i see... | 04:15 |
| FloatingGoat | Naw it doesn't maake it bold.for.me lol | 04:16 |
| holstein | that was the first and last MXL mic i'll ever own, unless i trip on one going out the door or something | 04:16 |
| FloatingGoat | I wish I coulld seen I'm on phone | 04:16 |
| FloatingGoat | J | 04:17 |
| FloatingGoat | Sorry | 04:20 |
| nightlingo | hello! | 11:19 |
| holstein | nightlingo: hey | 15:24 |
