DUB DISCUSSION BOARD

yo thanks mike! <BR> <BR>this is a nice addition to Dubcreator's post discussed <A HREF="http://www.interruptor.ch/cgi-bin/discu ... 1">here</A>. the new idea in this case is to use one mixer channel each as pre and post amp.

good point about the preamp.. all reverb units we discussed above do have built-in preamps though. <BR>even with a preamp the noise level is considerably higher than with a digital reverb unit. If one loves the spring sound it's just about finding ways to live with this.

Well I think that's the problem with any webpage: After you created it first nobody will care.. Apart from wanting to learn about Dub this was initially the reasons why I started this whole site! <BR> <BR>peace & good luck with your music <BR>The Interruptor

you can use a software called musicmatch <BR>which is available for free from mp3.com

Ampcast is a service you pay for. The good thing is you can have pages without add-banners and you can sell red book standard CDs of your music via ampcast (this means real full quality Audio CDs, not CDs made from uncompressed MP3 files). <BR> <BR>Another option is <A HREF="http://www.mp3.c...

Swinging Chad recommended the book "People Funny Boy" by David Katz on this board some time ago: "In the course of telling Lee Scratch Perry's life story he tells the whole story of Jamaican music. The best book ever on reggae." <BR> <BR>I am not aware of any books dedicated to dub alone. <BR> <BR>...

here's a link for the HDB products: <BR><A HREF="http://www.hdbaudio.de/de/produkte/tube ... m">link</A> <BR>The page also lists the price of the unit: 665 Deutschmark. &#40;something like 300 US$&#41;

Dub was invented back in the seventies when jamaican producers found out that instead of putting just an instrumental version of a song on the B-side of a vinyl single they could create additional value for the buyer when they enrichen these versions by the use of special mixing techniques and effec...

4 outs is not a lot, especially if you want to use it as your main sound source. if you think you'll need more one day make sure you can still get an output expansion board and check what it costs. Also be aware that you'll need to buy some sort of external storage device. <BR> <BR>check some user r...

never used one, but seems to be a handy easy to use unit. was already cheap when new. don't expect world class reverberation here. if you buy it and find out the reverb quality is not up to your expectation for big rooms you might still use it for small room / early reflection type of reverb to fatt...

Administration: All replies regarding Kocha's analogue studio have been moved <A HREF="http://www.interruptor.ch/cgi-bin/discu ... 606980">to this new thread</A> <BR>please continue this discussion over there.

This discussion started on the "Roots of Dub Funk 2" thread. Let's continue it here where it actually belongs!

A friend gave me the address of the Caveman Studio. This is a small studio doing mainly dubplate specials. <BR>As usual with jamaican studios there was always a lot of young artists around the studio waiting for their chance to record a tune or to do a special. I stayed there for a couple of days ta...

the 501 was the last product in the space echo line - click <A HREF="http://www.foi.hr/~rlogozar/mbsn1/Analo ... l">here</A> for info on the different models.

a fast way to get one: <BR><A HREF="http://www.ebay.com" TARGET="_top">http://www.ebay.com</A> <BR> <BR>i guess you can get it cheaper if you have time <BR>and patience to check local second hand and <BR>pawn shops.

"New World Culture" has a strong reggae flavour, pretty much on the funky side as i would say, especially the bass line and the programmed "dead notes" in the drum patterns. <BR> <BR>It's perfectly ok with me by the way if people post links to their dub-influenced non-dub music here. <BR> <BR>peace...

Adats can be used like any 8 track reel to reel machine. There is nothing that could stop you from having different songs at different tempos on the same Adat tape. Either you manually record the 8 tracks to the Adat one after the other (i.e. drums on track1, bass on track 2, ..) or you bou...

yo massai, <BR>thanks for that answer regarding steely and clevie's drum machines. when info like this is rolling in it really makes me feel we are gathering knowledge here and it was worth it to start this discussion board. <BR>lots of respect also to mike zee who does a great job helping out peopl...
