    Critiquing songs

    I'm curious as to how everyone has their EQ set when critiquing songs in this forum. I keep my EQ flat (0) when reviewing songs and listen on my computer speakers. Granted, they are Creative 5.1 with a Sub but I still keep a standard setting. When I listen to a song, this is what I expect...

    Looking for a "Master of the Obvious"

    Alright, I get the feeling I'm gonna get flamesprayed for this since I have a feeling it's a relatively simple question. I'm starting to work with MIDI files on my DAW. Here's the deal. I'm trying to compose/mess around with MIDI in the Staff View of SONAR. I'm also using the Track view to...

    Traynor YCV40 amps?

    I've never heard them and don't have access to them. I'm just a little curious. Apparently they have a new all tube studio amp. As far as I know, they are made by Yorkville but I'm hesitant on relying on the brand name. Anyone use these or heard them before? Are they worth the $450?

    Tracking audio to Home VHS tapes

    I am curious about dubbing over home videos and adding custom dialogue to previously recorded VHS video. For the most part, it will consist of family reunions, birthdays, holidays and such and I was hoping to make it look a little more professional for distribution at a reunion. I'm a complete...

    Mic'ing a Steinway baby grand

    I'll be moving back to VA in a couple of months to be close to where my G'dad lives. He plays and composes classical music and I was hoping to capture this on some live home recordings. I would have to close mic it considering his piano is in his living room and acoustics aren't all that...

    Tremelo springs for a stock Strat?

    Any place where I can buy these things online? I'm looking to pick up a few for my Strat and a couple spares for use in the near future. Music stores in the area aren't any help since they have a hard time understanding a tremelo in the first place. Any help, as usual, is greatly appreciated.

    From .09 to .10's tremelo adjustment

    Everything looks alright on my Strat but moving up to .10's yanked the tremelo up. I expected this and am curious about your opinions. I can either add springs, tighten the anchor screws for the tremelo or lower the bridge saddles. After changing the strings, the ass end of the bridge is...

    My very first LP Standard

    Today is a very good day. One of the guitars that I've have dreamed of owning but was previously out of my budget finally arrived, and I love it. Right along with my Strat, these are the two solid body electrics that I have always wanted to call my own. I am complete. LOL. I'm gonna be awake...

    Rode Microphone praise

    I bought a Rode NTK microphone (cheap) from a seller on eBay. Unfortunately, he didn't insure it and by the time it arrived, the grille was completely broken off although the micropone itself still worked fine. A quick call to Rode tech support and I get an RMA with free parts and labor for...

    Japanese Strat question

    I've been searching around looking up serial numbers and such for the origin of a 1996 Fender Strat made in Japan. The serial number is U + 6 digits. Even though it says made in Japan, I've heard that it could also have been made in Korea/Phillipines or some place other than Japan. I've...

    Stupid Gibson LP Standard Question

    I've been looking at purchasing a Standard and am curious about the difference between the straight out mahogany guitars verse the flametops. Do the flame tops use a veneer over the mahogany body to achieve the look they have? I would ask the people at my local music shop but they would rather...
