    Ok, this is a cover of Sarah Mclachlan's "Angel" performed by of course by a female vocalist. My sole involvement was the recording of the vocals and mixing. "Angel" 192Kbps MP3 This was the first take. Subsequent takes after that never captured the same emotion. What do you think of the...

    Mic to complent an AKG C414-XLR?

    I think I already have one, one of the older Studio Projects B1's. It is kind of a brighter mic, where the C414 XLR is darker. But is there something better out there that compliments the 414, as in provide an alternative when the 414 is too dark? Thanks A.

    Anyone have any experience with "Dietz" rack gear?

    I have a chance to pick up some parametric EQ's like this one, pretty cheap (like $100). Just wondering if they are worth messing with. Thanks! A.

    Trident 4 channel strip vs.?

    I just scored a really great deal on a Trident 4t Channel Strip. After having researched it, it apparently has the exact preamp and compressor from the Trident S20/S40 chanels (the compressor on the 4t is a bit more limted, control wise). Sound quality-wise, where does this preamp rate in the...

    Melodic Metal...

    Determining the impedance of a guitar cab?

    Is it as easy as hooking a speaker cable to the input jack of the cab, and measuring the ohms across the end of the cable with a multimeter, or am I missing something?

    Blues through my metal amp...

    I finally got my main tube amp head into the shop to get fixed. It had what turned out to be some blown caps. I also bought some new power tubes and had them put them in bias it while they had it. Anyways, it sounded so sweet to me, I decided to do some guitar tone tests and see what you guys...

    FT:Tannoy Monitors and an Alesis Power Amp

    The monitors are Tannoy Proto-J's, 6.5" drivers. The Power amp is an Alesis RA-100. I figure they are worth around $300 together. I got them because I had a semi-permanent recording set up at a second location, which I no longer have. Any trades? I could use an Art MPA or other stereo preamp...

    Modern Metal Guitar Tone - (w/ sample)

    Ok, I being a guitarist I have my own favorite guitar tone, that I am (periodically) happy with. I like to think I am pretty good at getting some nice heavy guitar tones. But sometimes I get bands in here that I know are looking for a certain type of modern metal sound, and I've never really...

    Metal Track - Stoner/Southern rock vibe

    Hey, my 1,000th post!! We haven't found the right drummer or singer, but we are trying to work on new stuff, so we will be ready once we get a complete band together. This is meant to be a 'song concept', basically working out an idea that we can record later as a full band when we have one...

    Heard a Peavey 6505 this weekend...

    I have to say, I was really impressed. The guy was plugged straight into it, with a lower end shecter guitar and a Seymour Duncan SH-6 in the neck, and some kind of coil-splittable duncan humbucker in the bridge. He was getting some amazing tones out of it. Everything from super heavy, full on...
