johncmayer Per @markhoppus, I'm using a Fender Princeton and a Two-Rock Jm Signature amp. Signal path is Analysis plus cable to volume pedal to amps.

markhoppus @johncmayer bussed to a single gtr track or two separate tracks? neve bcm-10 perhaps?

johncmayer @markhoppus Shut your face. Not a BCM, but a SUPER rare version of it called an RM8. You have a BCM? We're taking direct as well, so 5 chs?

markhoppus@johncmayer come on, dude. you record direct as well? COMMIT TO A SOUND. no re-amp ever. you're better than that...

markhoppus@johncmayer ps. we have a neve 8014, 16 channel console. 60% of the time, it works every time...

johncmayer@markhoppus arrite. It's time for a Souldja (sic) Boy-style youtube recording gear-off, like lambos but with faders.

markhoppus@johncmayer you'd win. hands-down. i'd come with the 100%OG 1957 esquire and you'd come with the SRV custom shop howyadoin' 1 of 3 gtr...

johncmayer@markhoppus http://www.twitpic.com/6tbir You mean this Neve 8014, 16 channel console?

markhoppus@johncmayer are you talking about the tube tech rm8? how's that?

markhoppus@johncmayer similar, but we have a better monitoring section. i think we have 8 channels of aux/monitoring...

johncmayer@markhoppus Stop googling your information. http://twitpic.com/6tbl1 8 channels of 1073s. You have 2 more technically.

markhoppus@johncmayer i'm not googling anything. on trust.

johncmayer@markhoppus http://www.twitpic.com/6tbof Helios console. Know it? It's unreal. We run drums through it.

markhoppus@johncmayer hear about it, but never seen or heard one in person. if you're running that, you're winning already...

johncmayer@markhoppus yah, but my RM8 is summed into my 8014, which means that we have 24 channels of 1073s and 6 buses on mixdown.

markhoppus@johncmayer you son of a bitch. i can't quit you. you had me at dumble # 002...

johncmayer@markhoppus You have the whole studio rolling right now. A mass LOL.

markhoppus@johncmayer haha. what you sing through? OG telefunken elam-251? sm-57 like bono (is that just a rumor?) what you got?

johncmayer@markhoppus have a 251 and a U47. The 47 is what I use most of the time. Ever seen a stereo 251 called a 270?

johncmayer@markhoppus check out this unit called a Sound Devices 722/744. http://www.sounddevices.com/ - my favorite purchase of all time.

markhoppus@johncmayer the sound devices unit looks rad. will have to check it out. you win the studio gear war this time...what you use to monitor?

johncmayer@markhoppus the real winners here are the listeners!
