Patch-review for the eventide eclipse: The world wide web is a fast and effective way to get information about music recording. One of the most interesting aspect of recording is the use of effect processors. Though there are numerous manufacturers of effects, Eventide® is a leader in terms of technology, flexibility, customization and sound quality. They have an extensive web site with a lot of information about their products ...
Tubes vs transistors - audible sound quality differences.
Engineers and musicians have long debated the question of tube sound versus transistor sound. Previous attempts to measure this difference have always assumed linear operation of the test amplifier. This conventional method of frequency response, distortion and noise measurement has shown that no significant difference exists ...

Apart from the size and shape of a windscreen, its internal structure has the greatest influence on its efficiency. For maximum attenuation of wind interference it is important to distinguish between the type of protection appropriate to pressure transducers and that which is best for pressure-gradient designs. In the latter case, involving directional microphones, the transducer element should always be surrounded by an enclosed volume, which functions partly as a pressure chamber to cancel such interference.
Wind can be a serious problem for the sound engineer working outdoors. This engineering report will concentrate mainly on the practical aspects of this problem. For those interested in pursuing the matter in greater detail, the references at the end of this text list papers that deal with some fundamental scientific considerations. Scarcely any of these, however, acknowledge the most current technologies, which use foam. Practical applications require that we be fully aware of the different approaches required for the protection of pressure-gradient microphones, as distinct from pressure microphones ...
