    What's the new Myspace?

    I'm not much of a social networks kinda guy anymore. If I want to be social, I'll call/text/mail. So forgive me if I seem like some clueless old man. (FYI I'm 20. :p) Anyway. It seems MySpace is more of an undead than a living network. It seems only independent musicians still desperately try...

    Small MIDI keyboard, with built in sounds? Does it even exist?

    I'm looking for a small portable MIDI controller type 25-key keyboard, but so far I've only found pure MIDI controllers. I want one with built-in sounds, so that the keyboard is a standalone instrument, should I for whatever reason not have access to a computer etc. Any ideas? Does this even exist?

    Recording from the DI Speaker Emulated on my JCM2000

    Last week I bought my Marshall JCM2000 DSL401. That thing just made my day, week, month, and possibly year. :D Anyway, I tried recording from the DI Speaker Emulated output on the back, just to see how it would sound with this amp (it sounds mediocre in most amps). Surprisingly it sounds...

    Marshall vs Marshall: JCM800 4010 vs MA50C

    I'm in need of a new amp. I know I want 'that Marshall sound', unoriginal as it may be. Every riff I come up with just sounds that much cooler with the typical Marshall crunch. Anyway, in hopefully not too long a while my band and I are going to start playing shows. Currently I have an AVT20...

    Clipping pickups?

    I recently got a Gibson Les Paul Studio, with the standard 490R and 498T pick ups in it. I love it, the way it plays and the way it sounds is pretty much exactly what I want from it, but I've noticed two things: even playing through an overdriven tube amp the volume roll-off is doesn't happen...

    Thicker toms in overheads?

    I've been recording drums with a classic 4 mic setup with great success now, Glyn Johns, Recorderman, or putting the SDC's on the toms as close mics. Although it sounds pretty good, I'd like them to sound a bit thicker and fuller. How would I go about make them sound punchier, with this 4 mic...

    SDC as overheads?

    I've been getting great results with a 4 mic setup, using dynamic close mics on the snare and kick, and small diaphragm condenser microphones on the toms. Because they're so sensitive they still pick up a lot of cymbal sound, the perfect amount of cymbal I want, really. I still have a beautiful...

    You boxy snaredrum, you...

    I'm not a drummer, I'm mainly a guitarist in two bands. That said, I'm the only one who knows a tiny bit about recording drums. Also, I'm the one with the gear: a pair of Behringer C2 overheads, a Samson QSnare and some random AKG vocal mic which I got from a friend, used as overheads, snare mic...
