    How to Use STEREO TRACKS on BR-1600? Help...

    Hi all, With my Boss BR-1600 the 9/10-15/16 stereo tracks need a little help. So if I want to record a mono guitar track, can I use one of these? When I do it shows up panned hard left or right. I don't know much about using stereo tracks, except to bounce or mixdown to. In short, what's the...

    Anyone have Genelec 1030a monitors?

    Hi, I've got some of these and I've noticed the tweeters have hiss coming from them even with no signal coming through and even with nothing plugged into the back. Anyone have some can maybe verify if they do exhibit a little hiss, or should they be silent when no signal present? Thanks.

    Genelec 1030a? Should they hiss? Anyone?

    Hi, I recently got a pair of these, really to turn around and sell to make a few bucks. Anyone out there who has a pair tell me if you have them turned on with no signal going through, even with nothing plugged in the back, the tweeters on mine have an audible hiss--not really loud, but there's...

    Marshall JCM800 question

    Hi, I've got a JCM800 2205 model from the 80s. Just recently got a second, as I found a great deal. Only difference is my original amp's clean channel wasn't affected by the Master Volume on the amp. The new amp's Clean channel IS affected by the amp's Master Vol. Seems like clean channel is a...

    Ibanez UE405 or 400 Manual? Instapatch explanation?

    Hi all, If anyone has one of these rack mount boxes, I'd love a copy of the manual, or perhaps could you just explain to me how the "InstaPatch" feature works. I think it's supposed to change the order the effects are patched, but just need a nuts-n-bolts description of how to use it. Thanks, Wade

    Alesis DM5 Question

    hi, I've got one of these and don't know much about them. Anyone know if the "Preview" button on the front is supposed to act kinda weird? I know it's velocity sensitive, but on mine, it does sort of what it wants. In other words the drum sound I'm previewing will go loud and soft of its own...

    Recommend the best DAW?

    Hi, I'm looking around for a really good used all-in-one DAW. Looking at things like the Yamaha AW16G, Korg D1600, Fostex VF160EX, etc. Any suggestions? In particular, I have some decent outboard gear from my current setup that I'd still like to be able to use via inserts and Aux circuits. Do...

    Red 7. What's it worth?

    Hi. I've found someone selling one locally he says is mint. What would you guys pay for one of these used? They go for $2700 new. He's asking $1750, but I want it for $1350, going by the rule of 1/2 price of new price is in the realm of great used price. Do they generally have good resale? Thanks

    dbx 160xt,166, etc.

    Hi, Question for dbx lovers out there. I currently have one 160xt, two 166, one 166a, and one 266XL. I usually used the 266XL for compressing kick and snare at mixdown. I know most people don't like that unit too much, but the attack and release give me some precise control. I'm just learning...

    Tascam 22-2 or Fostex E-2?

    Hi, Looking at both these used to use for mixdown. Looking for some character and warmth after recording/mixing on my digital 16. Is one of these far superior, or what are some of the pros and cons? Thanks.

    What's better than a 57 for guitar?

    Hi, I'm looking to beef up my mic collection, as I need to do some live recording and mic several amps at once. Thinking of picking up a few 57s, but does anyone recommend something different under $100 for loud guitar close micing? Or does anyone know how to tell if a 57 is one of the older...

    dbx 166a question/manual beg

    Hi, Just got a used one for $50. Thought great deal. Didn't realize there's no attack and release controls on this baby. So in a way my 266XL (supposedly a piece of trash) still does more for me when compressing kick and snare to dial in punch. What is the 166a designed for without these...

    Compress vocals tracking and at mixdown?

    How many of you compress vocals while tracking and again at mixdown? I always use some compression when laying down vocals (male rock vox). Usually a dbx 166 (no X, no XL) around 6:1 to 10:1, or an 1176 at my buddy's studio. I've been realizing that I often re-compress at mixdown to get the...

    REVERB...Next step up...PCM-80 that great?

    Hi, I'm like probably many here that has pretty cheap reverbs and thinking of trying to improve that part of my rack. I've currently got a Lexicon MPX 100 and an Alesis Wedge. First, how much difference is it going to make to move up to say a PCM-80? If it really worth making this move, is the...

    Who Makes the Best P-90?

    Hi, I'm thinking of throwing a P-90 into an old Epiphone Olympic I have. The guitar's already been modded with a badass bridge and SD Hotrail, so no reason to keep it stock I guess. Will involve routing a bit and changing the pickguard. I've never had a guitar with a P-90 before, but looking...
