Ok, so doing a Sublime song was a bit intimidating at first, but I think this is probably the best thing I have ever recorded in my little livingroom. I still need to do a couple of parts that require a trem guitar, but even without them I think the song works. And I gotta tell you, getting...

Still no hours at work...so here's another song! :) I'm still sticking with the 90's. Gin Blossoms this time. I hope you like it! Hey Jealousy

My 90's cover kick continues. Down in a Hole by Alice in Chains this time. I hope you like it. Down in a Hole - mp3

Well, my last submission got no attention, but let's see how this one does. A little Pearl Jam this time. I'm not terribly happy with the vocal, and I need to find a keyboard to do the piano part properly, but on the whole I'm reasonably happy for just messing around in my living room...

I'm generally a metal and punk guy, but a combination of extreme boredom and crappy weather that has kept me off my motorcycle for awhile has driven me to try a little something different. So here's my cover of Jeff Buckley's cover of Leonard Cohen's Halleujah (with a few liberties taken :D)...

Hey folks. I have a random question that has been nagging at me for awhile now. As the thread subject suggests, it has to do with tapping on an acoustic such as that Andy McKee is so fond of. When I tap a note I get the desired sound from the string between my finger and the bridge, but there...

Hey folks. Does anyone know any links that could be helpful in figuring out some of the details about a Takamine Acoustic guitar? I took a quick look at their site but there didn't seem to be anywhere to enter a serial # and get the model, year, etc. Any ideas?

The stock nut on my PRS won't fit the strings I want to be running, so I figure I'll give the required modification a go myself. After all, the worst case scenario is that I mess it up and have to take it in to have it professionally done, which is the other possibility anyway, so why not take...

Sorry for such a basic question, but I am somewhat of a troll when it comes to anything beyond basic recording with Cubase. I really only use it to do rough demos of new songs, so I have never been that concerned with getting high quality results, but I am getting really sick of my demos coming...

I recently got a used Dual Rectifier and while the amp itself is in nice shape the footswitch looks thoroughly stomped on. It is really noisy (big pop noise) when switching between channels and although the indicator light toggles on and off, the FX switch isn't toggling the effects loop. Does...

So I recently swapped the stock strings on a PRS for a set of Ernie Ball Heavy Bottom, Slinky Tops (52-10) and it has caused a really strange problem. The intonation at the 12th fret is still right but it is somehow off throughout the rest of the guitar. For example, if you tune the open...

Hi folks. While I have been playing forever, I must admit that my knowledge of the technical side of guitar and amp electronics is somewhat lacking. I now find myself in the market for a new amp and I am wondering if there are any technical attributes that are better for lower tunings (I'm...

Hey everyone. It has been a long while since I recorded anything and although I have been a member here for quite a while, I have never posted a track before. Anyway, I figured it was about time I did. My main band plays metal, but I started out playing in punk bands back in high school and I...

HI folks. Lots of you may already be familiar with Andy McKee, but I figured I would post it up for those who don't know him. I only heard him for the first time a couple of days ago when my bands other guitar player turned me onto him. If you don't know him you have to check this out. He is...

Okay, so like the title says, I'm looking for a descent, but cheap first keyboard. The problem is that I'm a guitar player and don't know the first thing about keyboards. I really don't want to spend any more than $200. It has to be self amplified too. Any suggestions?

Ok, so we have been trying to figure out how Danial Bergstrand (the engineer responsible for newer In Flames records, Soilwork's last record, and more) gets the snare sound he does. As with most metal of that sort, there is lost of sound replacing and triggering going on, but there seems to be...

Not really a recording question, but I figured someone here would be able to help. I am replacing a pickup on my strat and I was wondering what the best way is to pull the knobs, without damaging them or the tapers, so that I can remove the pick guard and get at the goodies inside. Thanks for...

Hmm...I'm not sure if this is the right forum or if I am asking to be crucified by posting this question here but here goes. Are there any descent sources of good sounding free drum samples online? I live in a tiny condo and cannot record live drums so I am stuck with programmed drums. It...

Hey folks. I'm totally new to Cubase and I am having very strange problems with my inputs. I am just running in through the integrated sound card for now (which sucks in itself). There is a mic port on the front of the case and one on the back. For some reason last night the front port...

Ok, here's the deal. I am running a DR-770 for my drums and I have never had a problem until now. That is because I have never wanted to change the tempo mid song before. Here is the thing. I want to cruise along with the tempo at 128, then have the next two patterns to drop down to 115...
