I am using an Alesis firewire interface with Logic. My problem is that I have never been to get my final mix up to volume. Ever. The master track is clipping but when I mix it down it only plays at about half the volume as other songs would in a car/big stereo/etc. Any advice?

So I just bought a Gretsch Corvette G5135. Of course with the Bigsby. This is my first guitar to have a tremelo system and I had no idea there was the wedge of foam trick to restring it. I almost threw my brand new guitar across the room trying to string this guitar without the foam. I am having...

How do you record a tempo change on drums? Or I guess what I'm asking is how do people record them so perfectly? Can you change the metronome settings in the middle of recording or something?

http://www.fostex.com/support/pdf/fostex/vf16/vf16_supplement.pdf This is a file explaining how to save a program to a CD. My question is if the files on the cd will show up on the computer or if it is strictly program data for the VF-16 to read?

i just got my first recorder (Fostex VF-16) and I need a mixer. I want a mixer that you can have a direct output for each channel. Looking at musicians friend, etc this is hard to find. However I noticed an "insert." is there any way this insert can act as a direct out to go straight to each...

I am completely unexperienced to woodwork, but I found two 12 inch celestion 75 speakers lying around in the basement along with a large amount of oak plywood. I am going to build a 2x12 guitar cabinet...not for actual use (in terms of sound quality, etc) but for fun and past time. One question...

I recently acquired a Rogers XP-8 "big r" drum set. The size are as follows: 14 rack 15 rack 20 floor tom 24 bass drum I was looking in to researching the set and could find absolutely nothing or no one that could tell me anything about the 20 inch floor tom. anyone seen these before?

is there anyone that owns or has played the ddrums punx set? despite the looks (which i don't ultimately care about) i am leaning towards this set for the huge bass drum and the price. pros/cons? i am mainly concerned about the sound that these toms will generate.

If on the back of the head it says it is able to use 6L6 tubes Does this mean anything with 6L6 on it?...On the amp is says 6L6/5881 is accepted will these work? http://store.yahoo.com/mesa/6l6stsvet.html

Is it bad to mix different brands of preamp and power tubes... 12Ax7 for preamp and 6L6/5881 for power

This is a really bad recording..(quality, vocals, etc.). And I understand that this is a mixing clinic, but to any critical ears out there I would love to hear your opinion on the song. Maybe a better recording will come soon, but we are 15 years old and broke :D www.purevolume.com/morningedition

Well I have put thought to what I have decided and am looking for opinions. This is what the rig should look like Fender Stratocaster w/ Hotrail---> Crate Blue Voodoo 120w Head----> Behringer Slanted cab with 2 Vintage 30's(top) and 2 Jensens (Bottom)---> and below that an Orange 212 cabinet...

Well I have taken a step up to a Crate Blue Voodoo tube head. However, I still am using a Behringer cabinet. I have heard from numerous people that Vintage 30's will make your head sound so much better and also louder. Is it worth it to buy a cabinet equipped with these over Jensen speakers? I'm...

Well I've got the old Rogers XP-8 set...but I don't know if this is a rare production or what. Research has brought me nowhere. But the set is a dark green Rogers XP-8: 14" rack tom 15" rack tom 20" floor tom 24" kick I don't have the original snare...instead i was given a ludwig super...

I have a Crate Blue voodoo head, and it is much different recording than my previous heads. I don't have much equipment for recording my band...so how would you go about recording this without all of the buzz and dirty noise you get when sending a tube sound to the computer?? (note: no condenser...

This is a 20 day old Behringer modeling head. It has 60x2 watts stereo or 120 watts mono. There are 16 outputs which is great for any studio application. It features 32 authentic amp models, 15 speaker cabinet simulations and 16 multi-FX including noise gate, compressor, wah-wah, modulation...

I have an older Ludwig LM410 Supersensitive Supraphonic snare drum that I no longer have use for. This particular model is supposedly the most recorded drum in history. This drum was garagekept for a few years then given to me. I have done as much as i can to clean it up and get a great sound of...

I am looking into buying a head and cab to build half stack. I play at churches in fairly large rooms. Do you think these can get the job done? http://www.behringer.com/GMX1200H/index.cfm?lang=ENG http://www.behringer.com/BG412V/index.cfm?lang=ENG Oh yeah, its cheap. Im a kid. Im poor. So we...

I have a vintage Zildjian Avedis ride that is in very good condition besides the fair amount of keyholing. Anyways, I am not much of a drummer myself, but one of my friends came over and was playing my set and said that it was the most overtone he's ever heard out of a ride. Is there any way I...
