TUBES OF GLUE: THE TEGELER VTC
Hailing from the land of Bosch, BMW, and the Bavarian Pretzel, Tegeler Audio Manufaktur are steadily winning hearts, minds, and rack space. B. Church patches in Tegeler's OG: The VTC.
COMPRESSORS, COMPRESSORS EVERYWHERE
It's weird, we hadn't reviewed a hardware compressor in a while and then, seemingly out of nowhere, a month doesn't go by where I'm not wiring up a new box of chips, bulbs, and wires to fawn over. You'd think I'd be...
LIKE… REALLY, REALLY BIG: ARTURIA V COLLECTION 8
In Douglas Adams' "Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy", the titular guidebook explains the endless expanse of outer space as follows: "Space is big. You just won't believe how vastly, hugely, mind-bogglingly big it is." For the DAW-based keyboard and synthesizer enthusiast, Arturia's V Collection, now in it's 8th edition, represents a collection of instruments that seeks to answer just how endless a concept like "endless" is.
V Collection 8 is, put another way, a...
Five 500 Series Modules For Under $500
CHAMPAGNE TASTE AT A SPARKLING WINE PRICE.
What is it about the 500 series format that makes it so popular? I guess for some, it's building modular setups that cater exactly to what they want to record. For others, it's being able to easily switch out modules for different applications. But underneath it all, being able to have "a bit of this and a bit of that" all in one rack is pretty damn...
2020 NAMM Wrapup
After a whirlwind weekend in Anaheim, CA the ER.com crew are back to report on not only what we saw at this year’s four-day bacchanal, but what we didn’t. (Bryan promised us Magic Mountain if we were good - sadly, we were not. Blame the $2.99 Mango Bahama Blast Margaritas at the Applebee’s across the street from the Comfort Inn)
Of course there was the usual smorgasbord of the newest, hottest, latest, bigger-faster-louderest gizmos...
NAMM 2022: ELECTRONIC BOOGALOO
We'll be honest here, virtual tradeshows are not our thing. That's why we chose to sit out our annual NAMM wrapup for the past two years of pandemic-based societal collapse. But this year, facemasks and bear spray in hand, we traveled to sunny Anaheim, CA, ready to again report back with the world's biggest gizmo orgasm. Manufacturers big and small from around the globe, hocking their latest wares over the world's loudest trade...

Guest Post: Graham Cochrane
I'm not the best at figuring out what to write for tips and tricks for recording, but today we have an actual credible professional writer in our midst. He's written a book, The #1 Rule of Home Recording, and many videos on the subject of recording. They can be found HERE and he posts regularly on his site, The Recording Revolution. I actually check the site regularly personally for great tricks, especially on...
Congrats to Jeff Hedback for the Cover of Mix Magazine
While Jeff has been in nine other issues of Mix Magazine (and every single "Class of" since 2013), one of Jeff's TWO "Class of" designs finally (and deservedly) made the cover. Yes, you heard me right. Jeff has TWO designs in this year's "Class of" features. The article can be found HERE.
We are proud to have an ongoing series with Jeff and want to offer him the sincerest congratulations! Although Jeff has some...
The Evolution of a Life-Changing Idea – Jeremy Bell – ScrubBoard
Today we have a guest post from Jeremy Bell. If you're not familiar with the name, I'd bet you've watched videos (this one and this one) on his groundbreaking creation, the Scrub Board. I've been following him throughout the development and lucky for me, he wrote an exclusive article on the complete evolution of the Scrub Board. Enjoy!
“It all started with Laurie Anderson.” This is always my reply to the inevitable questions about where...
Demystifying Acoustics with Jeff Hedback – Part 3
This is Part 3 of a 4-part series. To start from the beginning, visit Part 1.
When we left off in Part 2, we built the space, determined the mix position, and measured the room for proper treatment. We also ended with a bit of a cliffhanger on how we were going to treat the room. We had an initial plan but circled back due to a few factors. In part 3, we look...
Demystifying Acoustics with Jeff Hedback – Part 2
In Part 1, we discussed the misleading paths that every engineer initially faces when the mix doesn’t translate. We also brought in an important ally – Jeff Hedback, owner of HD Acoustics. Part 2 brings in Everything Recording’s new studio space and all of the groundwork you need to lay before even considering what’s going on the walls. With the introductions out of the way, let’s get to the good stuff.
Do-Over
