Using my Roland VS1680 I recorded my country band minus the vocals & lead guitar (me). We put the vocals on after, not a problem but now I've come to record my lead guitar work and if I plug the strat direct into the VS it sounds really harsh and un-natural. I've tried using a Line6 POD v2.0 but...

Using my Roland vs1680, my mate wants to cover some Stereophonics song, but he doesn't have a band, he's just a vocalist. Is there anyway of getting a backing track into the VS1680 on stereo tracks, and let him sing onto a seperate channel and mix the two together???? If so, what type of file...

When I view my HDD status on my V1680 it tells me the following: Formatted: 4.0gb 0: 2.1gb 1: 1.9gb I take it this means I have a partion on here, if so, how do i remove it to make it one big 4.0gb disk??

OK, Im reeeeeally P!$$ed off now. I've had my US Strat Plus for 17 years now and recently, say within the last 4 years, I've been going through strings (especially 0.26 D string) at a rate of every other gig. Sometimes I'll string it completely on the Monday, gig on the Wednesday, gig on the...

In Cakewalk Home Studio you get a long list of patches, anything from Accoustic Piano to Violin. Can you get extra instruments to install or is that it? Anyone?

When I play down the headstock end I get a lovely chunky sound - Love it! But when I come up the neck around the 12th fret area, the sound goes very thin & I feel I have to really pluck the strings hard to get the sound to be heard. Any Ideas? Setup: Fender Strat Plus into a '94 Twin. Cheers

How can I get a good steel guitar sound onto my songs? Im recording a Country Album but I can't play Steel guitar & I don't know anyone who does. So, is there a midi patch or a effects unit that can turn a normal guitar into a steel guitar?? I have: Strat - BOSS BE5 - Multitrack 2nd Strat...

So I've recorded my band onto my VS1680, sounds really good too, but the singer has decided it's too high for him in the key of 'C' and he wants to sing it in the key of 'A'. Do I have to get the band back in and re-record or is there a way of changing the key on the VS?? I'll need to change it...
