    Guitar not staying in tune

    (Sorry if this thread duplicates itself.) My old guitar doesn't stay in tune much anymore and I'm not sure why. It's a double locking Ibanez RG 250 if I remember correctly. So I tune her up, check intonation, tighten everything up and it seems to be ok. Then i'll play for about 5 min and...

    to starquad or not to starquad that is my question

    I want to put up a mic & send/return feed from my recording desk to my live room (granted they are both in the same area but i hate having the mess of wires to work around at my desk). Typically I feel the need to use starquad for all mic cables but I wanted to hear some other opinions. Would...

    signal chain DBVU question

    I was reading on bluebear's website about the signal level between analogue and digital. This is not new news to me by any means but I started looking into it further. All the sites say that you need to push the analog gear up to get near 0db on digital meters. But if 0db on analogue gear has...

    I guess i'll ask the question here first since i'm using sonar3 producer. I have been programming my drum tracks in reason using the drum machine and then editing the midi. The sound really leaves a lot to be desired so i was wondering if anyone knows of any drum loops that can be...

    mxl 2001 behringer b1 i have both

    I have a behringer b1 at my schools studio (just something cheap for voice overs) and I have a mxl2001 at home for my use. The mxl was the first mic i bought. I saw it had some decent reviews over behringer products but I find that the b1 is a better sounding mic. The vocals are very rich and...

Today i must have pressed something on the keyboard and it turned the cursor from being able to click on audio tracks and drag/drop/move to a function so that when i...

    MIC preamp options. Opinions needed for these.

    I'm running a Digidesign 001 and lately 8 tracks just isn't enough for the bands comming in. I have been working with hardcore bands and the guys producing the stuff want more mics on the drums. So i'm looking into getting an 8channel preamp with Lightpipe outputs so i can use it with the...

    Recording Distorion Guitar

    I just got some equipment last week and I tried to record a punk style song, just to test out the equipment. I was using a Fender Rock Pro 1000 amp (Has a really nice crunch and not too much fuzz). I find that the mics are not getting the crunch but only a light fuzz sound, which I dont hear...

    I'm picking up sonar3 this weekend. actually it should be at my house tomorrow. Anyway, I'm assuming it has a waveform generator so i can see how different frequencies are being affected by my room. Does the software have a way to place a mic as an input and analyise it's waveform to see...

    Two conflicting articles

    I was reading something on homerecordingconnection.com. One of their articles was showing how to mic an amp and it said that sound comes from the outer area on the speaker which makes sense (cone?) and does not come from the center of the speaker. A different article says to place the mic...

    Mic Choice MXL 603, 2003; SM58

    I see here a lot of people use the MXL 603's i think for overheads on drums. Are these good mics for that? I was under the impression that the marshall mics weren't that good (i got that impression from some guy in a music store a month or so back). I'm looking for two overheads for my drums...

    What monitors to get?

    I had alesis mk1 active monitors in my radio station's recording room for a little. Then someone blew the woofers. So i picked up Event PS6's. They were a much needed improvement. And i liked the sound they give. Now it's time for my home studio and i'm debating on which monitors to buy...
