    Recording Software Lite Suggestions

    I sit on my couch playing guitar through my eleven rack with headphones and sometimes I come up with a lick that I would like to be able to remember later. I would like to install a simple, preferably free, program on a crappy little notebook computer that I own, so I can plug my eleven rack...

    The Jazz Butcher

    I'm surprised that more of the singer/songwriter/home recording types here don't listen to Pat Fish aka The Jazz Butcher.

    Modern Fender Amps

    Lt. Bob mentioned in another thread about issues regarding Fender Hot Rod Deluxe amps and how they may predictably fail (and be easily repaired). I'm thinking about a small, affordable, managable, clean amp that I can use to learn more about pedal tones. I was looking at the Deluxe Reverb...

    Connecting Hardware Synth Module and Axiom 25 Keyboard Controller - Mbox 3

    Hi, I'm trying to get my head around setting up my MIDI studio for the first time. I have a Roland U220 synth module and and Axiom 25 Keyboard. I would like to use the Axiom to record MIDI data, playing the sounds from the U220. Could someone please describe the connections? Do I connect...

    Marshall SL-5C

    New 5w amp, Slash (appetite for coinage) version, two channel EL 34, 12" Celestion V30, digital reverb. Not out yet, due in June. I have the Class 5 and miss that it has no gain stage, but I do have beaucoup stomp boxes I can put in front. Thinking about getting just the head if one comes out to...

    Pro Tools 10 and Mbox 3

    More of a brief "in forum" user review than a question. I started with the Avid Eleven Rack and quickly switched over to the Axe FX II for my go-to guitar processor in my micro project studio. I have had good luck using the AF II for a basic input device, it has MIDI connections but no mic...

    Roland U220 MIDI mix

    I'm poking around inside of Pro Tools today to see how different parts work, and going through some old stuff to decide what ideas I had jotted down in sound years ago that I might like to record proper. Here's a bit of a peculiar mix. :facepalm: I recorded this on a Tascam Portastudio about...

    Overwhelmed by the Plethora of Options

    I just watched a Youtube Video on one tiny aspect of NI Komplete 8 (making a sound in Absynth 5) and it suddenly hit home just exactly how far I am in over my head. Between this, half a dozen virtual samplers, multiple soft synths, drum modelers, my Stupid 90's Hardware Synth Module + Separate...

    Why Do Ear Buds Sound So Good?

    I've got some Skull Candy 'Buds, and last night on my smart phone I listened to Donald Fagen's "Morph the Cat." Those things were downright thumpy, the bass was "all there." Wassup with that? :confused: How do those teeny little speakers deliver such great bass? I mean, 4-5" speakers sound like...

    Trying to understand how this is done

    I want to cover this song for a project, for learning purposes. If you have experience, please advise as to how this may have been created. There are, in particular, a couple of heavily reverbed & delayed synths at the beginning. I have no idea if it was likely recorded that way or if the...

    So, How Did You Do It?

    There are artists and songs that have served as the inspiration to take up this home recording thing again. I mean, I really like EXACTLY what they are doing. Without getting specific as to artists and songs, how can I take their work to heart and use it to inspire my own work? I guess what I...
