Not as I recall. The big machine of the day was the Studer A80, a lot of the better studios were using them to replace their old M79s.MajorFubar said:Dave did you ever come across an ATR124? I've never had the pleasure of using (or hearing) one.
A lot of very clever servos, there were no mechanical brakes either, all done with the main reel motors, actually quite strange to watch in action. You could tell it to go to a specific point on the real time counter, it would wind to that point very quickly, overshoot, wind back, overshoot again and quickly come to a stop at exactly the right place, to the second. Very impressive in the pre-computer world of the mid 70s.MajorFubar said:Might be wrong but my vague memory tells me the ATR100 used a capstanless tape transport. 30 years on or thereabouts and I'm still not entirely sure how the hell that worked.

Not the way I read it....... :doh:ReValveiT said:I believe he's talking about more of an upper/mid punch than a kick punch Dave, something that the 6005 doesn't do*.

*And by the way, something the 6003 DID do, very well indeed.
Mostly to compensate for a placement of the speakers in a corner or a bright sounding room, studio monitors are surpose to play the sounds,music the way it's recored, not a boomy bass a dark or bright top unless it's how the music,sound is recorded or they way you like it, on most active studio monitors you can only cange the highs,mids and lows by a few db.davedotco said:Not the way I read it....... :doh:ReValveiT said:I believe he's talking about more of an upper/mid punch than a kick punch Dave, something that the 6005 doesn't do*.

But then, you know me, anything to get active speakers into the discussion...... 8)
Anyway, the Presonus Eris 8 that I showed above have a range of controls to optimise response, you can probably make them sound like whatever you want.
