    Does anyone have experience with the Tascam DM-24?

    I love my dm24 but I do not use a computer, but most people that have the dm24 do use a computer so check out the Tascam forum website under Dm24 and there are plenty of people there that can help you.

    C1 cat's pajamas or ass?

    I will have to say the C1 is not my most used mic but it gets used more then a lot of others, my Rode NTK and my AT 4033 and 4050 get used more on vocals but there are ocassions where I use for backups or a second mic on a guitar amp things such as this, very good for the money.

    Who is the most underrated guitarist?

    I very much agree with Lindsey Buckingham, But also Richie Backmore of DeepPurple, Very intense emotion. And Dave Gilmore. I agree with the comment that its about the way a guitarist can work with in a great song not just how fast he can play. but I do love fast solo's

    Mackie, Alesis or Tascam 24 trk HD-which one?

    The Tascam is by far used more in Pro studios, I would go to the Tascam forum and do a search on it. I have used it a few times and have even concedered getting one myself of late.

    I love motorized faders, once you get used to them its hard to imagine ever not being able to use them.

    Recording a theremin

    They also go from very low volumes to very high volumes, So a compressor will be needed, I have also done them direct into a tube pre then comp then into the board and had really good results also or you could go direct and use a good condenser mic and combine the tracks.
