actually, i was thinking of checking one out. how is the break up on that amp? do you need humbuckers to get a good distortion? all in all i guess as far as my amp search, i think i am wanting way too much. i want to get a variety of tones, from queens of the stone age to johnny guitar watson...

i am sure this has been done over and over, i was just wondering about everybody's thoughts on mid level tube combo amps, like the price range from about $300 to $500. i am trying to look at all of my options for my next purchase (i know the budget ain't much, but i am a poor working musician)...

the reason stuff is really cool. i have only reason adapted for digidesign, but i have tried the full reason 2.5 and it is amazing, once you get the feel for it it gets really easy and fun. i have worked with the dr-5 for years, i love boss drum machines. there is a lot of options and...

i dunno about acoustically treated,but....... for years i been paying attention to where i listen to music. i have a small studio apartment with lots of carpeting , low ceilings, curtains, lots of stuff to deaden the sound(unintentionally) such as lots of padded chairs, and just random junk(...

just curious, dantell, what are the other speakers you own that you had to take out a mortgage on your house? i got a new catalogue yesterday( dirty little magazine) so i was fantasizing over certain monitors. anyone ever hear the blue sky monitors? what about the event TR5, i know that a few...

what's the UAD-1 card? is it something i could use on my mac g4? i am recording in pro tools and i know that most mastering software is standalone , so i could just drop my audio files in it , right? with the psp mix pack i just use it as a plug in RTAS, but my setup won't handle more than 2 of...

ok, here goes more rediculous questions..... i am sure there are other threads that answer my questions, but it's late at night and i just wanna post a new thread and ask more questions before i go to sleep. so......., in another thread i posted , i asked advice on cheap mixing speakers, and got...

awesome!!!! woah, thak you so much! most people get annoyed when asking such sophmoric questions. i just need some serious help and have no money to afford all that is needed. if you have any more random advice , please feel free to throw it out there. i need all i can get(esp. about eq'ing...

thaks for the input. i will check out those speakers you mentioned. i was listening to mixes of bands i really liked on those speakers, they sounded amazing, and i tried mixing(e.q. wise) close to some of my favorite mixes, yet when i brought it to other speakers, my mix still spounded dull. oh...

Mixing is built on two things: COMPRESSION and EQ. excuse me, cloneboy studio, i am sure you might have been asked many times, but when you talk about in mixing, the compression having a big part, could you please elaborate on that a little bit? i would really appreciate it. like, what tracks...

ok, ok , i know it's not right, nor even possible to get a good mix with crappy speakers. i know , i have discussed this with so many people and had this discussion on many a forum, but......... i have been tearing my hair out for weeks on end. i am mixing my sister's band, which has so much...

i'll have to agree with rimshot %100, it is a matter of listening, and as i said, dynamics.good drummers kick ass and are way underappreciated. every drummer i play with listens to what's going on all around, and good drummers can complement any shitty guitar player, even make the guitar player...

:D how do you know a drummer is at your front door? the knock speeds up! what do you call a guy that hangs out with a bunch of musicians? a drummer. just kidding!! i know tons of drummers, i love drummers when it comes to playing live. a great drummer makes the band, no doubt about it. but...

oh, by the way, it's alright to like sonic youth , mark knopfler, chuck berry,randy rhoads, and brian may, right? because by the way everything sounds, you either gotta like one thing or another. i like everything, as long as it has some passion to it.

ok, wait, srv had imitators? i thought he himself was a master imitator. or are you talking about imitating tones? because i liked srv's tones, he that down, but for that style of playing i like listening to jimi or albert king to hear the originators. i don't know if anyone is aware of mark...
