I'm not sure if that's supposed to be a criticism, or that i sound like a politician or something.
regardless, i wasn't confrontational or accusatory in my contribution to this thread, and i think what i said made sense.
If my post came across as too considered, it's because i'm not someone who likes to deal with being misunderstood, and if i have something to add, i don't see any shame in doing it properly.

Fraser's post on the previous page mirrors the experience we've had with recording with Robin of Sutherland.

Also, people might think Robin comes across as condescending, but he's in fact one of the most helpful and patient people you could deal with it in that environment.

But, I think this has finally run its course.

I'm using an M-Audio MobilePre, it is far better than Robin's current rig.

i'm using a decent mesh pc effort, M-Audio Firewire solo, i use a Roland Micro-cube for firing stuff down in the house, and a couple of 58's.
Monitoring through B&W hi-fi speakers, and sometimes a pair of decent sennheiser monitor headphones.
It's fine for me.

I know it isn't home recording per se but I got a set of sony hi-fi headphones yesterday for my ipod and my, I forgot how good the sound quality was with hi-fi headphones! Can anyone recommend good hifi headphones for under £50?

The reason I ask here is because You lads may well have experience in hifi type headphones!

it's pretty difficult to recommend headphones because its a matter of taste, I'm a fan of sennheisers, i don't like the beyer dt100s i've got sonically, but you can replace pretty much every part.

Your best bet is probably to find someplace that'll let you try out a whole bunch.

Im using my dual core PC & Laptop with

M-audio Firewire 410
M-audio Firewire Audiophile
M-audio DMP3 Pre-amp
Yahaha MG10/2 Mixer
CME UF6 Midi Keyboard
E-MU X-Board 25 Midi Keyboard
4 or 5 cheap mics

Boss Gt-3 & ME-6 multi-effects pedals.
1960s floor tom.

Cheap ass stereo speakers for monitors(studio monitors are next on the to get list).

With Nuendo 3 and Live 6 to record.

More VST pluggins than I know what to do with.

Favourite soft synths right now are NI Absynth 4, NI FM8 and NI Massive.

Keerin · 4th July 2007, 08:08 PM

That's for the recommendations guys! I have heard a lot of good things about seinheisser equipment in general and they would be near the top of my list for headphones probably.

The skullcrusher ones would be amazing!
