I have a Roland Octapad. It's a drum machine but also has some MIDI capabilities. I'm trying to find some banjo sounds to load into the machine. Is this even MIDI? And does anyone know where I can find some of these sounds? If it were even one banjo note, I can take it and program it into...

Hello all, I am looking to purchase some studio monitors, and don't know where to start. I assume I just need two (is this correct?) to keep it simple. If I'm not looking to spend more than $200 for both monitors, can I still get good, quality sound coming out? Any users here have any good...

http://soundclick.com/share?songid=9197552 I took a Zeppelin track in a different direction. Inspiration from "Whole Lotta Blues" Zeppelin Blues Cover Album, by Eric Gale. Please comment on the mix quality, recording quality, likes/dislikes about the arrangement itself. :)

Noise cancelling headphones seem to use battery power to actively cancel the noise, whereas reducing headphones just muffle external sound. What type of headphones are better for a home-recording studio?

www.soundclick.com/nickzychowicz Check it out. It's my brother singing. He asked me to record it for his GF. He's not much of a singer, so take it easy on him, lol. He really wanted to sing it for his girlfriend though. Enjoy.:)

Check out www.soundclick.com/nickzychowicz -- "Goin' West, Down" and "Free and In the Heat". They're two originals of mine that I was working on this summer, and finally decided to put them online. Guarantee you like it! (Yes, 'Goin' West, Down' ripped off the opening drum line of 'When the...

I posted this in the Beatles Cover Thread, but thought I'd put it up on the main page for anyone who doesn't like to adventure in there. http://soundclick.com/share?songid=6809700

Hey guys, I'm going to start working on a song that I've been wanting to do for a while now. I've given up on my drums, and I feel like I don't even know what I'm doing when I mix them anymore. I'm looking for a kind of heavier, darker, powerful sound. Roomy yet up front. Since I've Been...

http://www.soundclick.com/util/getplayer.m3u?id=6595676&q=hi Absolute bottom of the line drumset/cymbals. AKG $40 Mics (Forget which ones exactly) running thru a 5 input Eurorack. Epi Les Paul running through a Crate Halfstack (The shittiest halfstack around). Drumming gets a bit sloppy...

I uploaded this a little more than a month ago but didn't get any responses, so I'll try again. http://www.soundclick.com/util/getplayer.m3u?id=6165955&q=hi This is an Epiphone Les Paul Standard w stock pickups. Running through a Crate Half Stack. It has terrible tone, so don't beat me up...

I spent 0 minutes mixing this. Just one track mixing in Audacity. I'm just sittin in my dorm and thought I'd record a jam on my built in web-cam Microphone. Enjoy at your own risk. It took me half of a verse to realize that I wasn't going to be able to hit the notes that she does:D...

http://www.soundclick.com/bands/default.cfm?bandID=683472 This is an Epiphone Les Paul through one of those shitty Crate half-stacks (which explains the absolute TERRIBLE quality of the lead guitar in the center of the stereo field). I used all AKG 9000s (Five of them) through a Eurorack...

http://www.soundclick.com/util/getplayer.m3u?id=6049985&q=hi This is ancient stuff that I've been going through. I went from just plugging my accoustic/electric into the computer, to running my electric through a Digitech RP50 w/ the crappy drum machine. I don't really care about if it was...

I'm not really asking anyone to critique this. I recorded this back when I had no microphones -- just an accoustic/electric, a cable, and a computer. It's a cover from Robert Plant's "Mighty Rearanger" album. Just putting it out there -- mixing may not be great, but feel free to reply with...

EDIT: SORRY FOR THE DOUBLE POST! Can someone delete this thread please?
