Re: magazines



How about EQ magazine?

It's not bad although much of the equipment is very expensive gear indeed.

Lots of articles interviewing engineers & producers. Pics of immaculate
studios with nary a single cable showing. Amazing! I have cables coming out
of my ears.

I dropped it after about a 2 year sub. I must be doing something right
though. I'm getting Keyboard gratis. Yes!

Regards, Paul
