I just got a disk of a bluegrass record that I'm going to master for a buddy
of mine. The engineer mixed it on a PTHD system, and burned me this disk of
the final mixes. There are no file extensions. I asked for wavs, so I
tried adding .wav, and all the other obvious extensions, to the files to try

Kent,
I find that when effects are lop-sided in the auxs I switch to a mono
rather than stereo send. This often is a quick fix but not always =
possible.
Psuedo does this to me often.

is I would expect it to work on either. Obviously you don't have a mac handy
to try them on. I assume they do have a proper size to them that sounds reasonable?
Are they a size matched stereo pair? They're not stuffit compressed or something
are they? That's always possible????....

>I had four of these mics with different capsules in the early eighties. I
also had two C414EB but prefered to use C460B on most of the trackings, both
acoustic guitars, grand piano and voice. There was a special capsule made
for voice that I liked well, not so fat as C414 but with better definition
to my ears. So it was my favorite vocalmic to use in those days. The only
problem I could see they had was to change the capsules. If you wasn't
absolute correct when setting a new capsule on, there could be real
mechanical problems.

>>Ahh, the U47.
I love the sound of it as much as I love the sound of my two MXL v69's.
After spending some time over the space of a week A/Bing the two mics, with
a variety of sources, I really wanted to hate the V69, but I couldn't.
The two sounded sooo similar, but the V69 was quieter.
My Rode Classic II wasn't in the league.
.....Ouch.... watch the flames begin....

They are standard Mogami edition mics, from two different batches, about
nine months apart.
The second one I bought had a bit of very low level "motorboating"
noise, (not major), which I cured by changing the valve.
I didn't expect much when I bought the first one, but when I heard it, I
just had to get a second one.

.......or it could be a new Mac *feature*
;oDDJ, So are you doing render WITHOUT effects, just basically splicing
objects together on the playing field into "whole" files per track?
Thanks,
