I wear many hats at my workplace.

Primarily a Database Developer, but also programmer, web designer, DBA, sysadmin, and general office bitch.

I work for a small custom software house in Sydney, Australia. We use all manner of tools - but mainly MSSQL and a Rapid Application Tool called eDeveloper uniPaaS Magic XPA.

+1 - the only equipment I've ever seen damaged by phantom power are oldschool ribbon mic's.

comment CAT5 UTP for Audio?
Not really an answer, but we once had an analogue building PA system that we needed to extend to a new part of a building that they didn't run the wires to. We wired CAT5 and RJ45 with a stereo 3.5mm plug and patched it through the networking cabling. It worked fine, but we're talking about a building PA system, not high fidelity ;)

@endolith - No Money: Check. Idealism: Check (it is a church, after all). Not a professional: Check.

comment What is compression and why is it used?
To be fair, asking "what is compression" has two very valid answers when talking about audio recordings. This is a valid answer to that question.

comment How to recognize if Auto-Tune has been used in a recording? Is it needed?
+1 - I don't know if Kanye West has ever done a song without Autotune, and he uses it poorly

comment Are outboard processors dead?
+1 - I've seen studios that must have had 100RU of gear, most of which I suspect is plugged into power, but nothing else.

comment FireWire or USB
@Joel - then Firewire 800 was released, and then USB 3.0 came out - it's the same story in everything IT related where there's two competing technologies ;)
