    Archtop Question

    In examples 1&2, the inside of the guitar is painted black. I'm about to purchase a guitar where the inside is like example #3. It's just bare wood. So my question is.. Can I do this myself? If so how? And how will it alter the sound, if at all?

    Help me prepare?

    I'm trying to record vocals and guitar(amplified) at once. First off, I'm aware that the best route is to just try out several different combinations and find what I think sounds best. And that does work. But in the past I've asked basic questions on this site and got some very simple...

    WAV vs. mp3? & Volume/Quality issues!

    Interesting... :) With the gain at 95% it's at roughly +44dB. Also i'm using the basic soundcard that came with my computer. :\ I forgot to post this though... 2.) I can't really test anything out right now cause its 3am and people are sleeping. But i'll try the track volume...

    WAV vs. mp3? & Volume/Quality issues!

    also, if this helps. A typical, simple recording would be me practicing the song at my choice volume while playing with the gain on the USBinterface and seeing how close I can get to the microphone without clipping. Then... I hit record, (play), stop, file, render, mp3, convert, save. That's...

    WAV vs. mp3? & Volume/Quality issues!

    2 questions... 1.) If you render to WAV then convert to mp3, do you end up with the same quality as if you just render straight to mp3? -If WAV --> mp3 results in better quality, please recommend your preferred converter. (free would be ideal, im poor) 2.)...

    QUESTION! Sterling Audio ST55

    On my ST55 there is a switch, that I understand to be a high pass filter? (see picture) It can be placed in either position 1 or 2. Can someone explain to me which position is which, and their functions? TYVM! -n00b

    Reaper Question!

    I think it may actually be a latency problem. Because if i use the Record monitoring button in Reaper, and get the latency down its... really what im looking for. Its with my buffer settings to 2x1024, I still have a little delay. If i can get the latency down enough thats theres no delay...

    Reaper Question!

    I can turn the interface's Mic gain down to about 20%. When i record, i have no sound coming through headphones at all. But after I'm done recording and I hit play. IT SOUNDS MARVELOUS! (with phones knob set to Computer the whole time)

    Reaper Question!

    There must be a way I can set the phones MIX knob to Computer and have it playback without any delay. So I hear it after it goes through Reaper, not just straight from the interface and the mic. ??? Maybe my output? This is it now... see how it says output device speakers. There are...

    Reaper Question!

    But with the Monitor Headphones "Mix" knob set to Preamp I can now hear through the mic while speaking, perfectly, as long the interface's mic gain knob is set to at least 98%. If I turn it down on the interface, I can't hear myself anymore. ( with the headphones level knob at 100)

    Reaper Question!

    Well, of course. Gecko is right. I turned the Mix knob to Preamp (instead of computer), and I actually can hear my mic now (no delay) through my headset (that is connected to Interface). But I can only really hear clearly when the front gain knob is set to AT LEAST 95%, and the back Level knob...
