    The Official Anti-"Cash-Scam" Thread.

    Since Cash-Scam has shown no indication of restoring it's bbs (thus allowing years of useful information posted by faithful patrons to go right down the drain), then the lucrative word of mouth integrity they once had should be held in the same regard. *MANY say it's well known (in certain...

    Confessions of a M312b owner.

    First of all WOO HOO!! So I found and purchased the M312b, BUT with it being a bit more sophisticated than the mixer section of a Porta studio I'll need some help to do a run down check of all it's features. (This simply wasn't possible at the time of purchase, but I have 48 hrs.) So without...

    Soundcraft E8 meets Tascam 38

    The following are questions of signal routing concerning the Soundcraft E8 (8 mono channel) mixer to and from the Tascam 38 8 track tape machine. (Most if not all of these question will likely apply to SOME non Tascam mixers used in conjunction with the 38 or possibly other multi-track tape...

    Oh no! (Yep, another Insert question)

    On some boards (Maybe all..I don't know) when using the insert as a direct out the channels EQ is bypassed... Should the abilty (Or inabilty) to track with EQ be a major deciding factor in selecting a *general purpose board OR is it actually better (Or standard) to not track with any EQ? (By...

    Sync function

    Since I had no manual I never thought much about the Sync feature on my Porta 02, now that I can ask here I'm curious what the heck it is? :)

    Fav Backup Singing songs

    Anyone have favorite songs with great backup singing/ harmonizing in it? A few of mine are: The Beatles- "She came in through the bathroom window" (I like the way the backups "Swell" in the mix.) Paul McCartny- "Silly Love songs" (I like the song alot for some reason and dig all the different...

    Sightings

    Here's another stupid idea!: This could be a thread used to alert each other of Ebay postings for gear we might know someone here is looking for. Example: I have read that Rick is hoping to get a 3700 and wants the JL Cooper thing (I think)... I saw this...

    Trem Blocking??

    Hey all, I have a Kramer electric with a Floyd Rose and locking nut, but since I never use the trem (And at times the locking nut is a hassle) I'm wondering if it's advisable to "Block" the trem against the body with a piece of wood (Making it like a hard tail) , then just removing the nut...

    Damage Control: (Used gear checklist??)

    Maybe it'd be cool to devise and post a somewhat systematic checklist for evaluating various pieces of used gear... What to look for. What to avoid. Typical, but perhaps not immediately noticeable warning signs. Useful tools or devices to bring along when checking out gear. Just a thought. :)

    Jingle Writers

    (To me at least) It seems "Jingle writers" are fairly unknown, yet sometimes we hear their tunes on television and radio day in and day out year after year... Are there guys (Or girls) that are considered to be like the (For example) Paul McCartney of jingles? (If so) Have any of them ever had...

    Old Vox Acoustic Guitar

    *I know it's really hard to ask for info without a pic, but.... I have this kind of strange Vox acoustic that I'd like to find some info on. I call it "strange" because it's like a Mini-Jumbo with a very thin flat BOLT ON neck There's also a strap button on the back of the neck that looks...

    For entertainment purposes only.

    I''m sure most of us have at least HEARD OF the groundbreaking musical contributions bestowed upon mankind from such "Artists" as Leonard Nimoy, William Shattner and Pat Boone... I'm not sure who thought those records would be a good idea, but I suspect some fast talking or a bit of very...
