Brad,
Although I now own a studio, I have been hanging out on the LAB for years. I always found the RECPIT too jumbled up to deal with it. LAB was simpler to to look at and much more civilized. RECPIT seemed to be the home of too many angry young men with funny names.
Now, with the new look of the entire web site I thouht I might take a look at the new RECPIT but I am still dismayed by the multiple forums approuch within the one area. The "blurb" says its the place to come to to get answers, but the forums are layed out by names, not topics, with tiny little descriptions that say little about what the content of any one forum is. I don't have the time to lurk around to learn who's who. Can't you guys get your forums headed up in a more logical fashion?
Seems to me there is
TRACKING
MIXING
MASTERING
MIDI, KEYBOARDS, DRUM MACHINES
TECH ISSUES
EQUIPMENT REVIEWS
That would make for 6 great forums
Just my .02
