    Lookin' for a bass

    I thought it would be fun to pick up bass guitar on the side, so I'm in the market for purchasing one. Only 1 think stopping me: I have no clue what to look at. The only thing I know to avoid is a bass that says "Junior" on it. And I'm on the cheap, so I found a few basses on GC used. One of...

    Mastering in 15 minutes!!!!

    We are doing it all wrong. To heck with our ears, we can master tracks in 15 minutes! Just slap a multi-band compressor, more compression, cut everything under 30 hz, etc, and voila! A quick "mastered" track! :facepalm: Absolutely brilliant. I'll never spend a single dime on a trained...

    Maple or Birch?

I've been thinking about either getting a maple kit or a birch kit, and my main purpose for them is going to be for mostly recording and maybe some potential gigging. I have my eye on the PDP X7 6 piece maple...

    Crap drum sound.

    Well, I had a chance to rush and set up my mics and record some scratchier than scratch tracks. BUT, this summer I'm getting a new (and better) kit, along with new mics. And bass traps. Along with some better skills. So just let me know, and laugh as much as you want (I think this stinks so bad...

    I thought up of this game where you take the persons post above you, quote it, and add or delete stuff from their post to make it funny, stupid, or whatever. So who is ready to try? :eatpopcorn: P.S. There is a good reason I didn't post this in the cave.
