Lynx Aurora 16 with HD card

I’ve been working with my Lynx now for several months. Unfortunately it has been that long for me to have a chance to sit down and give this unit a full review. My opinion of this unit has evolved over several months. I should start by saying it’s been an interesting and eye-opening ride. The evolution of my HD system has been tedious and...

First look- Symphony IO

We’ve been watching this for days, and now it’s here. The completely modular, extremely flexible Apogee. The new IO is completely assignable. And meter set can show any thing.

Orange Terror Bass and Isobaric 2×10

My first bass review! I’m pretty excited. For those that know me, you know I can’t play bass (past a few notes), but I’m a studio guy. I’m always stuck micing amps and busting my rear to get the tone my artists need. Typically, that requires me to use a bass DI. Nothing makes a bassist’s heart sink faster than saying “no amp...
