Hey guys, could you please tell me what's the best capo and the best slide you know of? I have a crappy capo and a plastic slide, and I'd like to buy something good... Thaaaaanks :)

Hey, do you guys think it would be a good idea if I tried to build some pedals myself? I'm studdying applied physics, so I do have some knowledge over electronics etc, so do you think I could get a decent sound out of my own pedals? Anyone can find schematics etc, so maybe I could try it out...

Well, I was thinking, there are so many songs/albums with a decent or even unreal (:D) production etc, but there are some songs where production (by which I actually mean anything except for the song and performances, i.e. effects like the classic Cher thing, a characteristic drum sound etc)...

Hey guys, I really didn't know where I should post this, since there's no pro tools board... Weird.... ;) Anyway, so have you guys tried out the new Pro Tools LE 7? I'm currently running 6.4, so I though I should upgrade. It's only 65€ anyway....... But I thought I'd ask to see what other...

Hey, can anyone give me some link to a site with any interesting free rtas plugins for pro tools LE? I've been looking around but I didn't find anything really interesting. Any ideas? Thanks a lot - happy new year ;) Menelaos

Hey, simple question with a (hopefully) simple answer: how can I reverse audio in Pro Tools LE? (working on the LE which came with my mBox)

Hey guys, I'm looking for good wah wah and volume pedals... any suggestions please? I'm looking for something GOOD, so I can spend up to 200$ for each pedal, used (still, if there's something good that goes for less money, that wouldn't be the worst thing in the world ;)). So a list price up to...

Hey, I can afford $1500 for a nice new guitar, and I was thinking I could go for a PRS or a Gibosn Les Paul. I'll go to a few stores to try some guitars, maybe on Thrusday, so I thought I'd ask you guys first and see what you think. Small questions: 1. Would you choose a PRS or a G. Les Paul...

Hey guys, I bought that Radium 61, and received it today.... So, how do I use it? Do I just plug in the usb? Do I also need to send the midi out to my soundcard? I don't have a separate sound module.... So, any ideas? Cheers, Menelaos

Hey there, I was thinking about getting a set of AKG 270. So, here's a couple of questions: 1. How do they compare with my AKG 171? Should I buy the 270? 2. Is there a significant difference between 270 Studio and 270 playback? 3. How much would you pay for a used pair of each of the two...

Hi there, I'm going to give up to $250 for a mic, and I was thinking about AKG c535EB. The bad news is I cannot try it, so I'm going to need only some *general* advice. My voice is generally quite high-pitched (tenor) and I'm singing mostly with a very clean voice (or at least, I try to), lots...

Hi there, First of all, excuse me for starting a new thread, rather than posting to the one I opened some days ago, but I feel like this is quite a deifferent subject... So, I'm totally lost, to begin with! :) I really need to buy a keyboard, to help me composing and arranging, and I also take...

Hey there, I'm in need of a keyboard because of some harmony lessons (I really can't afford a piano :(), and my teacher said I can just buy the cheapest one I find (I'll begin lessons because of the harmony class in a few months). However, I've always sort of wanted a keyboard to record (poor...

Hey guys, Here's the thing: my brother is a drummer and he uses triggers on his drums. So, he puts on headphones when playing to listen to the triggered sounds. He also has their band's music playing through speakers, to rehearse it. So, he needs a nice pair of headphones which will NOT isolate...

Hello, I bought a Digidesign mBox the other day and I'm very satisfied with it. However, what I wish I could also have is a control surface to play with (mixing etc), like Digi002. Of course Digi002 is not *just* the surface, it's also a full recording interface with 8 channels etc, which I...

Hello, I recently bought an mBox which comes, as you know, with Pro Tools LE. So, are there any GOOD books to help me get started/become better/become good (:rolleyes: ) with the use of the program? Thanks :D

I know that parallel 5ths and 8ths are almost equal to a crime in classical theory, however I really like the way they sound and use them often in my songs. I keep them out whenever I do some classical-like arrangement, but I use them many other times. So, I just felt like I'd know...... how do...

Anyone knows "Recording & Production Techniques" book, by Paul White? Is it any good? Just this :) Is this book good? Any opinions? Any other suggestion instead? Cheers! Menelaos

Hello, I'm going to buy a mic to record my classic guitar, which I use both for strumming (in an "acoustic" pattern, but with nylon strings) and for playing in a classical way. So, I don't really know which mic to buy. I already have an AKG c900 for vocals and I intend to buy a few more mics...

Hello, I was checking out the mixing in some Beatles recordings the other day ("Rubber Soul", "Revolver" and some more stuff from that period), and noticed that they tend to have the lead vocals almost entirely on the right and the rhythm guitars on the left. The backing vocals typically go...
