I've got my Opals few days ago. Great sound after my old ESI nEar 05 =) But there are 2 problems: 1) There is static noise. Even if nothing is connected. Not too loud. But long sitting in 1 meter from them without sound tires me a lot. Is that normal? Or they should be absolutely silent when...

Hi! I mix EP for one band. They've brought all the material yesterday. And I've found that for some reason their rhythm guitarist recorded his tracks for one song in wrong tempo. It should be 120 bpm (all other tracks are 120 bpm). But he recorded it at 127 bpm. He recorded at home with click...
