Well, if you could get all three then you can get some really amazing tracks, I actually used all three of these on a recent recording of an acoustic guitar and was really impressed. I used the traditional xy position for the rode micrphones then walked around the guitar while the guitarist was...

hey, thanks for the help so far, well the mixer has eight xlr mono and 4 stereo inputs, and thats all the channels i need to record at the same time and i can have as many channels as needed on the computer. i have done some recording stuff on really large consoles cause i am going to college...

Okay, I have an Alesis Studio 24 and i want to connect it to my computer. I just got this computer, so it has the origional cheap soundcard. The mixer has individual patches for direct out and tape in on every channel, as well as master outs and ins. So my question is which sound card would...

Well, I was in the same position as you, and sorta still am. My suggestion would be to find more money :D , but seriously, try looking on ebay, just be sure you write the person if they dont have many pics to see what kind of condition the mics are in. I was able to find an AKG D112 for just...

thanks for all of the advice, our lead guitarist does pull the cord through his strap before plugging in, but our rythem guitarist doesent like doing that, and he is the main one that destroys the cords. The cords that plug into the loops and petals they have never had a problem with, and the...

Hi. I play in a band where both guitarists seem to always have cords go dead. Not just the cord that connects from guitar to amp, but also the cord that connects from amp head to cab. One of them even managed to destroy a Monster Cabel with a lifetime guarantee (he is still looking for the...

I normally just figure songs out by ear, but have you tried going to www.mxtabs.net I know they have some drum tabs, but I dont know if they have any country songs. I have only listened to probably two or three country songs in my life, but they sound pretty easy to figure out, and if that...

I agree to go play them and test them out, but also try checking prices on the internet because you may be able to find a good set of new drums for relatively cheap. I personally like playing Mapex, but any of those would sound good. I know Musiciansfriend.com has lots of drumsets and many of...

Thanks for all the help!! And the hitting yourself in the nuts, OUCH, I have never done that while playing, but I did manage to hit myself square on the knee cap once, how, I dont know, but it hurt really bad. :eek: :D

Well, I tried learning some guitar, but I wasnt too good, I didnt like having to remember all of the notes, so I decided to stick with the drums. :D

Thanks for the help, lots of good ideas to go try now.

Does anybody else lose sticks? I play more high enerygy rock/punk, so i usually have a stick or two slip out of my hand, but it is not too bad until i have played for about an hour or two and my hands start getting sweaty, then they start to fly (out of my hand that is). Anyways does anybody...

Hi all, I thought I would throw another quick question in here, Has anybody used these two kinds of mics as drum overheads and noticed any difference? Thanks

Well, I really dont know what it was, but it stopped, I ajusted some different things and I really dont know what fixed it, but it is not making the noise anymore. Thanks for all of the help, it may have been a gain problem, I wish I could tell you but I really dont know what it was or why it...

Thanks for the replies, I dont really hear the hissing when I moniter straight from the board, I mean it is still sorta there, just not as loud, and like stated, it is not bad enough to ruin any recordings, I just have to do a little more work on the computer to get it to sound better. So if...
