Hey all. I just happened across a top 40 pop type radio station this morning on the way to work, and I heard some drum sounds that intriguded me. It was electronic, kindof like, well, hehe, teenybopper candy mtv pop style. I was thinking of playing around with sounds like that with my own...

I just got a DMP3. I am definitly diggin it. Duper clean and lots of gain. You can get one for 150 and have two channels, and then buy a couple more when your bandmates chip in.

Hmmm, this sounds vaguely familiar... were you reading Shadow Divers?

You may also want to consider the Studio Projects C1 or TB1. For the money (around 200) they are excellent buys for vocals and acoustic guitar. I have worked with the C1 and I liked it, and I own a B1. Sounds good through the DMP3! Think about it! Carl

I second the nomination for the Studio Projects B1. I am in the same boat as you, needing a mic that would work well for both vox and acoustic guitar. I think that is sound really good on both. Furthermore, the B1 is a tremendous value at $99USD. Check out a very flattering review of the...

D'addario classical string are possibly the worst strings ever. They wear out quick and are lifeless. I give them a 10 on the "bleh" scale. I would reccomend buying strings from a maker who does only classical strings. Not one of the mass producers of regular guitar strnigs like daddario...

Most have "1394" marked near the port.

Yeah, thats prolly what I'll have to do. I have only one FW port on my laptop, and Ill be running both a FW interface and an HD. Those pcmia cards dont look too expensive. Hmm, now its time to relieve my G.A.S. and go buy some gear! Its frikkin pleople like me that keep MF and ebay in...

Wow. Quite a plethora (would you say I had a "plethora" of presents Jefe?") so far. I think I have heard of all of the brands mentioned. Ive had my eyes on one of those LaCie drives that Sweetwater is carrying. A Glyph would be sweet, but a bit pricey for my needs. So heres a question. Is...

Wow. I didnt even know they had 2TB now.... crazy. I remember when I thought 256MB in my Micron was huge!

Hello all. I was wondernig what kind of external HD everbody is using. I am going to start recording with my laptop soon and I need to get another HD because the current one is only 30 gigs and kinda full and heavily irreparibly fragmented. I was thinkin about getting one with both 1394 and...

Definitly the B-1. Ive got one too and ya cant beat it for the price. I really like how my acoustic sounds through it.

Hmmm, I think I like that idea Dar. Is this difficult to do? Is it something I could do myself? I have a 30 gig hard drive thats pretty much empty if I uninstall most of my games (Ive learned my demo lesson long ago), and I plan on getting an external firewire harddrive to back stuff up to...

Hey all. I was wondering at what point does it make sense to get a standalone computer for music recording only? So heres the dealeeyo... I dont plan on ever having more than 8-10 tracks at one time, and im gonna keep the internal effects processing to a minimum. So, do yall think that...

Why in the world does it cost so much just to refinish a guitar body? I mean, my father and I just painted a whole CAR with some excellent quality paint and clearcoat for about $400! Granted, we already have an air compressor and such, but still, I just cant see finishing a guitar costing more...

That is cool that you have gotten sounds that you like with the Nano. Have you used it in any of your nowhereradio demos? It'd be cool to hear what other Nano users are doing with them. For me, I am having the hardest time getting good sounds to tape with the Nanoverb. No matter how much I...

I tend to think that apogees turn everything purple...

Sorry to 'jack this thread but... If one werent to have a good monitoring system (who, me?) could one be able to discern the difference in a good set of cans?

I like using one sdc mike and playing the part twice, then panning the two takes to either side. This makes for a very pleasant stereo environment, 'specially if the two takes are really tight. (for dashboard fans especially!) On the flipsode, doing separate variations/arrangements on the...

How do those f/w interfaces work? Can I use a mixer to mix and monitor? Ok, heres the dealeeyo... I am thinkin about "upgrading" to comptuder recording soon, but I only really want to if I can use my mixing board for mixing/monitoring. I really only want to use the computer for the actual...
