What's that one piece of equipment you just can't seem to let go of? For me it's my trusty old Johnson J Station. I mainly just use it for recording bass as I've got Logic 9 with Amp Designer as well as a Zoom G9.2tt for guitar now. I just can't seem to part with the J Station.

I did a couple searches here but couldn't find anything. If this has already been covered please point me in the right direction. I'm finally at the stage where I can drop a good chunk of change on a nice tube preamp/channel strip. I'm just wondering with the current setup I have, how much of...

Hi all, Just wanting your thoughts about potential gear purchases. Since I should be getting a nice tax refund this year, I was thinking about buying more equipment. Aren't we always? I had my eye on a Tascam DA38, 78, 88 or 98 on Ebay. I would also like to get an ADAT. So here's the...

Hi, I'm having trouble with Cakewalk Home Studio 2002. Every time I'm working on making a drum track or basically creating any type of track, I get an error message like "Home Studio has encountered an unspecified error". I don't remember the exact wording, but it happens every time I'm...

Hi, I was just wondering if I could go out from an ADAT and record into a DAW. But I don't want to record anything on the ADAT, just hopefully pass the signals through the ADAT tape to get some analog characteristics before recording to the DAW. Would this work? I'm contemplating buying an...

I record on a Korg D1600 and I have trouble getting the bass to sit well in the mix. Does anyone have any suggestions? The only other instrument I record is guitar. Do you pan bass left and right or just leave it at the center position? Thanks for the help. Brian

I use a D1600 to record and go through a Zoom 505II, then through a Bellari MP105 tube preamp. I'm still having trouble getting a really good distorted sound. I use the EQ and some of the other effects in the D1600, but I'm still missing that something. Any tips?

I want to use my emachines etower 667ir w/ a celeron processor @ 667 mhz to record my guitar tracks. I bought the Lexicon core 2 sound card w/ a breakout box and thought I'd be in business, but all I heard was that "electronic noise" in addition to my tracks. I have tried all of Lexicon's...
