Hey guys. This looks to be the forum I've been looking for a LONG time.
I'm a poor recent college grad who loves to record music. A few years ago, I was suckered into purchasing two shiny DBX386 tube pres, and I have since learned why they always sounded "not so good"...
Anyway, I've decided that perhaps building my own mic pres would be both fun and rewarding. The problem is, I'm a total noob. I have some soldering skills, but absolutely NO MEANINGFUL electronics experience (I understand Ohm's law and can more or less read a schematic, if that helps).
I greatly appreciate the opportunity to be amongst such knowledgeable and kind folk! I have so many questions... So many things I want to learn... So many things I want to build!
So, where do I begin? What's a good project to start with? What books should I check out? What should I be doing?!?
Thanks in advance for the replies!
