    Just self released an EP, check it out

    thanks Rusty K, yes it was all done myself. I would love to have live drums, but money and space kept me from it this time around. I feel i did the best I could with sampled drums, ns_kit7 which I think sound pretty good. Seems like most people notice they are samples, but most are...

    new highway one 'casters

    does anyone else hate the new jumbo frets on the new teles and strats. I was going to buy one until this happened. I played on at namm and it was not comfortable. What are the advantages, or, why on earth would they put those huge frets on the guitar?? also, anyone know of any stores still...

    how is an analog mixer invloved with a DAW rig

    so to cut it down to basics: a/d converters -> multi channel recording on computer -> each track to mixer -> 2 track final recording in computer ? for some reason I had this vision that everyone was going through a mixer then recording on your computer, this makes more sense so you don't even...

    how is an analog mixer invloved with a DAW rig

    I've been in the box since I started music, but I'm wondering exactly how people incorporate their analog mixers in with their daws and the benefits. I know people mix in analog but I'm not sure how its set up. for example, do you have all the outputs from your interface going to different...

    Vocal Recording: 1 take vs. punch-ins?

    I used to have a terrible voice, I took a voice class and got to the point of passable, but still not very good. I just sang a song at a wedding and to get it right I practiced it at least once a day for 2 months straight, no joke. I went to record it yesterday and for the first time in my...

    using preamps/compressors live

    I mostly work in a recording/sequencing setting and never really did much live. Well I'm doing guitar/vocals in a wedding setting and I have some questions. Do you normally use a nice preamp for live use? For example I have an rnp and rnc. Would it be wise to use the rnp with my sm57 and 58...

    Drum census

    i agree that replacing acoustic drums with samples because you couldn't get it right the first time is ridiculous, however some things like the line 6 pod and some good acoustic drum samples are the only way to go. for example, I live in an apartment and have absolutely no place to record a...

    fs: gr-33 roland guitar synth

    I'm thinking of selling this baby and wanted to test the bait here. I got it a few years ago, and aside from playing around a bit I have not used it much at all, just not my thing. I'm not the best guitar player either. Anyway, I'm looking to get around 350 for it. If there is any interest...

    protools vs. DP vs. Logic Pro

    I've used all 3 but i have less experience with logic. I'm kinda going through the same thing, just trying to figure out one program to stick with. But anyway, pro tools is a dream for audio, and dp will handle midi like a pro. Logic will destroy your soul for the first few days trying to...

    idm sequencing tips

    i downloaded the demo for max/msp the day before i started this thread. It seems as powerful as it is complicated, and just as expensive... I downloaded this program for it: http://1xn.org/osxtools/middlemarch but it hasn't been working properly for me. I get it running, but when i press...

    idm sequencing tips

    I'll have to take a closer look at it. Native Instruments have presented me with quite a debacle. I pretty much want everything that they make, but I will not, in the near future, have enough money for Komplete 3. But you save so much money, so I can either get one or two programs relatively...
