Upcoming New Modded Mics
AudioGuru
So, in the business of audio recording, it doesn't get much more fundamental than 1. Room Acoustics, 2. Sound Source, and 3. Microphones.
One of those three basics is about to get a serious upgrade here at Advanced Budget Studios.
Today, Michael Joly of OktavaMod is modifying two Apex 205 ribbon microphones, and will be shipping them back ear...

Mormon : 4
PoeticIntensity
Man... This chapter was brutal. Wars, wickedness, and death. Seems to me that this is the result of giving power to Satan, letting him run rampant. Hating your neighbor and wanting to kill him for the sake of being bloodthirsty. So terribly sad, and unfortunate.
Interesting in verse 5 that Mormon writes that the wick...

Mormon : 3
PoeticIntensity
If there is one thing throughout all eternity that I do *NOT* want to happen to me, is what happened to the Nephites in verse 15 of this chapter. Having the Lord, God of this earth, proclaim, "Vengeance is mine, and I will repay", kind of makes the hair on my neck stand up. The Lord makes good on all of his promises, and...

Ibanez S570B - Newest Addition!
AudioGuru
So I wasn't really interested in getting yet another member of my little growing studio family, but I couldn't help but get this one after playing it at the local music store. Found it on a killer sale at samash, so I pulled the trigger.
Available to all studio clients for recording.
Isn't she gorgeous? She sounds awesome, too....

Mormon : 2
PoeticIntensity
So, again, something kind of odd. Mormon was 16 when he was commissioned to be the leader of the entire Nephite army. Is that not insane? Seriously. Every 16-year-old I know barely has the sense to tie their shoes in the morning! Okay, not really, but - wow. Mormon was 16 years old when he was put in charge of th...

Mormon : 1
PoeticIntensity
Not sure why this caught my attention this time, but doesn't it seem a bit weird that Mormon was carried by his father when he was 11 years old? It seems like he was carried on somewhat of a journey, too - to a different land. Maybe his father was quite big and could accomplish such a task, because an 11-year-old isn't small enough to ...
