Last week I bought a parametric (I hate graphic) EQ (Behringer Ultra-Q Pro, 5-band fully parametric, plus lo-cut and hi-cut) for my guitar system (which is composed of a Pod Pro and a *cough*Peavey*cough*solid-state*cough* power amp through a Mesa 4X12). I hooked it up and tried to do something...

I'm trying to decide between two guitars, the Schecter Diamond Series C1-Plus and the ESP LTD H300 (ok I admit it, it's actually the C7+ and the H307, I want a 7-strings :)). What they have in common: mahogany body, maple top with see-through finish, H-H configuration, non-trem bridge, similar...

I need a fast acting A/B switch to switch from one amp to the other, preferably passive (don't want to use batteries or power cord). What models should I look into? Something that won't affect my guitar signal in any way.

I tried a bunch of different amps, and there's no way around it, I need a Mesa/Boogie Dual Rectifier amp! Nothing else has the sound I'm looking for Now I'm wondering if I should get the normal Dual Rectifier Solo Head, or a Dual Rectifier Trem-o-Verb long head. I can afford the $$$...

I can't stand it anymore. I'm trying to record my band's demo and Cakewalk keeps deleting the files in my Wavedata folder when I save a song. I reformated my hard drive, reinstalled Windows and everything, erased my .wrk files and started from scratch, used a different wavedata folder...

What do you guys think? for rapcore/alternative music [This message has been edited by DropD (edited 06-29-2000).]

What are sub busses for? I'm asking that because I noticed the Allen & Heath MixWizard 16:0:2 console which cost the same price as a Mackie 1604, but gives me the superior quality and sound of a A&H, plus 2 effect processors, 2 sweepable mids, 6 aux busses, yada yada. The only thing lacking...

We're about to buy a complete PA system for our band and they're offering us a slightly used Allen & Heath 24-channels GL3 mixer, how good are those? Also, anyone know if the brand "Acoustic" makes good loud speakers? THey're offereing us 4 full range with 15" woofer, and 2 2X18" subs, all...

Is there something I'm missing here? Everyone loves Shure Beta 52s and AKG D112 for bass drum. The show we did in march, we had a huge sound system, with an Allen & Heath GL-3 console, nice compressors, the soundman experimented with a 421 and a D112 on the bass drum and couldn't get the big...

Is it just me or T-Racks doesn't read 24-bit files? If so, what is the "dithering" option for in the preference menu. I think I'm a bit lost here...

Hey guys! I recorded an old song I wrote in my death metal years for fun. I'm just trying to get more experienced with my new 24-bit gear :D ). So if you'd like to comment on my mixing and recording, it would be welcome. The url: www.mp3.com/generate/ The song is called: LowiNfat I know...

I got a Midiman Delta 44 sound card and I love it. I'm using Cakewalk Pro Audio 9. I've noticed Sound Forge (4.5) can't read my 24-bit mixes (I used to use Sound Forge to master my mixes). I'd like to be able to master them while still in the 24-bit world. Is there a newer version of Sound Forge...

I'm looking for internet ressource on building studios, I've already read every piece of information I can find on this website, this board and also on homerecording.about.com, but I am an information addict and I want to read as much information as possible before I even begin to draw my plans...

I'd be very surprised if it did. But is there really a need to do that?

I'm used to recording guitars and basses, but this is the first time I record vocals. I don't have high-end equipment, they were recorded using a dynamic mic (a good one at least: ATM61HE) through an AKAI mixer as the preamp. I compressed them using the BlueCompressor plugin (don't have an...

Is there something I don't understand? My drum track (stereo track in Cakewalk 9 PA) sounds very good, no need to compress, EQ or add reverb, except for one thing, the cymbals are harsh as hell. I used the FX1 EQ (parametric) to cut the offending frequency, I found them to be the ultra-high...

I probably pressed space instead of record :) silly me

Anyone knows where I can find information on power amps, but power amps for a PA system (for live gigs and rehearsal of a rapcore band). I have to choose between Crown, QSC and Yorkville and I can't find any review or comparison anywhere. Thanks

Does anyone knows how these two compare. I want a microphone that will do 412 guitar cabinets and snares. I know the SM57 is "the classic way of doing it", but I like being different, and I like Audio-Technica. The 23HE has the advantage of being really short which makes it easier to position on...

Can a C1000 be realistically used for vocals and drum overheads? What are the other options?
