BBE Sonic Max Remove the BBE from the studio, take it home and hook it up to your home stereo. If you r home stereo is like mine, cheap, it will make it sound better (thats about it). DO NOT USE IT IN RECORDING! It will give you a false sense of security, especialy don't use it for mix down. it...

Metal isn't dead! Of course metal isn't dead at all, just not as mainstreem anymore. I checked Nirvana only because the "bongheads and psuedo intellectuals" thought that music was becoming shallow (it was to a point) and Nirvana convinced them they were getting something deep and meaningful. Of...

Try Splawn Amps http://www.splawnguitars.com/ These amps are very vintage, nice sounding amps!

How about DW's Pacific Series? How about the Pacific series from DW? I was looking at the CW models. Anyone have anything good or bad to say about those?

Check for text on CD Just take your mastered work to a Circuit City or Best Buy and throw it in one of their players with text. Perhaps if the cd player is hooked up to a stereo you can check the mastering while you're there. And if someone happens to ask you about the music, you can promote...

Test test test. I have compared numerous mics, AT, Rode, Shure, Beringer, and the such. I was looking for a mic for around $200. When I tried them out at the store, the Rode kicked butt! But it is what I felt sounded good compared to the others. You may have a different taste or vocal...

Boogie Boogie Boogie Don't let the name fool you. I own a dual channel Mesa Boogie Triple Recto. You want brutal, you CANNOT beat this head! I usually run 2 4x12 Marshall cabinets, turn this head up to 40% volume and you will be purchasing new windows for your house, and looking for a good...

Drum machine volume... There should be a series of buttons on the right hand side of the machine, next to the slider. They should be marked midi/util, tempo, I think. If you push the midi/util button, a list of programs will come up on your screen, I believe it should be 1-15. This is where you...

Midi drumming Grab a cheap, old drum machine from somewhere, make sure you can send midi data from it, program the song in the drum machine, and import the data to your sequencer/computer. Then use the DKFH2 software to play the midi data, you can then tweek the data until the cows come home...

Well, first things first. In PT, I open a new "audio" stereo track. This will be the track I open the DFH2 RTAS on. We'll call this track 1. Next I open a midi track in PT, we'll call it track 2. This is where my midi data will be recorded. I program my entire song on the drum machine, but...

Dfh2 I own the DFH2, it was sort of a pain to get set up, since it really takes up a lot of RAM (I had to increase mine to 1024) anyway, I use PT and I have had great success with it. The drums really sound terrific! I use my old drum machine to program the entire song, and then imput the midi...

If you have the processing power check these out.. FYI be careful these programs are RAM pigs, but they sound great! I currently use Drumkit From Hell 2, which is a very good sounding drum kit. Sonor kit with different snare choices, you can choose between different beaters on the kicks...

As a guitarist also, I just wrapped up my quest to find the best quality drums to use in my recordings, so I feel your pain here... This is what I found. There is a TON of different software products out there, to name a few BFD or "Big F***ing Drums", http://www.fxpansion.com/home.php is...

Thanks for the great feedback! I really appreciate all of the feedback, and yes MX3282, this was all recorded in the front bedroom of my house. The room has a bay window, but I don't think that was what you were talking about... :) I have a run of the mill HP computer running XP, with the mbox...

Last year my band took a long vacation away from each other, and since I always must be playing and writing, I decided to try it alone. This is the first result of that quest. This is me recording, singing, playing, everything, except drums (which are loops from betamonkeymusic.com). Please...

I am on a quest... being a guitarist, I have been slowly getting into the world of midi, and I am going to ask a newby question. I want to find a software program to sequence drums via midi, and be able to run them into pro tools on individual tracks. Currently I have the mbox for my demo...

hard rock drum loops Try visiting www.betamonkeymusic.com These guys are great and have a ton of cd's with some very cool acoustic drum loops! I have writen about 15 songs with these loops!

I have a cheap keyboard, and would like to hook it up through my USB port to control the synth rack within Reason. Since the keyboard has midi out and in, if I purchase a interface (midi to USB), would I be able to control the Reason synths and use Reason to produce sounds within the program?
