General Knowledge Questions On Musical Instruments

This is a basic power cord used for a myriad of personal computing equipment, peripherals, and musical instruments and amplifiers. I needed a longer cord for my guitar amp - this one fits my purpose exactly. Simple - no problems.

This was purchased to match the output from musical instruments to portable transmitters (ex - SHure BLX1). Works flawlessly, XLR in and XLR out. Will probably get a second for additional flexibility.

I use this product to photograph my ceramic musical instruments and sculpture. It gives everything a neat and professional look. An industry standard for photographing three dimensional art.

I normally use my MixPre 6 II as my primary recorder for violin, cello, and other musical instruments. However, setting up the MixPre is always a hassle, and I don't like how it has to be powered. When something requires too much time and effort, there's a tendency to hesitate in using it. Since getting this recorder, I can start my recordings within a matter of seconds (literally). I can easily bring it anywhere, and it has become my preferred device for sound recording. The sound quality with the built-in mic is excellent, comparable to the MixPre II (of course depending on the mic you use). It is better than the Zoom H6 I used to own, especially for recording musical instruments. I also have the DJI MIC 2, which is excellent for voice and highly portable. However, when it comes to recording musical instruments, it falls short compared to the PCM-A10.

I ordered these to monitor musical instruments recording and to watch music videos and movies on my laptop. The clarity and the power of the iLouds are outstanding. I added a subwoofer (usually not needed) to reinforce the low frequencies and I now feel like I have a home theater system. I highly recommend them.

The filters are a sound techs dream. Musical instruments, faulty mic lines, guitars, keyboards, and more, seem to be a sound techs plague. Plug these hum eliminators in and leave them in line. The cure is instant. Don't be a victim of high electrician wages to search for the ground fault, especially on older Churches. Our Church suffered from a lightening strike and resulting fire. Even though most lines were replaced, but others are now breaking down. Its fast and complete when dealing with HUM

Really good phones...especially for the price. I use them for some general listening, but mostly I'm using them while tracking acoustic instruments in my studio. Fairly long cable and a nice screw on 1/4 adaptor. These things are very efficient compared to the Audio Technia phones I've been using...much louder at the same volume. Comfortable too!

SM57s are THE standard mic for instruments. Of course you can buy specialty mics that sound better on specific instruments. For general stage use, though, you just can't beat a 57. This bundle is a great value. For only $10 more than the mic alone you get a stand (seems decent, if not super sturdy) and a mic cable (too early to tell how long it'll last but seems fine so far).

5 stars! Stable and very easy to adjust level with slider on.
