    POD for sale $160

    I've got a 5 year old POD for sale. I haven't used it very much so its in good shape (a couple little scuffs but nothing major), pretty much only on one cd I recorded. It looks like the version 2 model, its not the xt one. I'll sell it for $160. Comes with original box, pod tools cd, manual...

    F/S: Alesis SR-16 drum machine $75

    I've had this machine for about 4 years, but only used it on about 15 songs. So it doesn't have much use, but it does have a couple scratchs on the interface plastic thing, nothing major, it just doesn't look brand new. Other than that it works great. I don't have the original box but does...

    CDR's advertised as audio compared to less expensive ones, question

    I notice that there are certain cdr disks that are advertised as audio cdr's, then there are the other ones that just say cdr on the package, the ones that I always have got, and usually go on sale somewhere for free every now and then. The audio ones are more expensive. What are the...

    Where can I find used fender bass necks?

    I have fender precision bass from the 70's that I've been playing a long time and would like to keep, but the neck is kind of warped and twisted, says the guy who did a setup for me. He said the body and electronics are still in good shape and suggested I keep my eyes out for a replacement neck...

    How reliable is copying wav files to another computer?

    I've been reading about storage problems and all, and am getting to the point where I'll need to make more room on my hard drive. I've copied all the wav files to the older computer via lan connection (both computers are hooked up to a linksys router). I've been working on a bunch of songs that...

    Why are my levels so high on my compressor?

    I'm using a behringer composer pro compressor and use the channel inserts on the back of my mixer using a "y" cord with the "tip/ring" going into the input and output channels of the compressor, one Y cord for each side of the compressor (or left and right mono channels of the compressor). The...

    How should I record drum kit with my setup?

    I've never recorded drums before and I think our drummer may be coming over to my place in a few weeks to record some drum tracks. I live about 2 1/2 hours away, so we'll probably have to get these tracks done in a couple of days, I would suppose a dozen songs or so. Here is what we have to...

    How can I lower the actioin of my fender precision bass?

    My old fender p bass seems to need a tune up of sorts. I'm wanting to lower the action a little. I've lowered the saddle or those string holder things all the way they can go, but they seem to still be too high. I was wondering if I should attempt adjusting the neck or if it would be a better...

    Oh my, another 1.5

    I thought I'd join in on the 1.5 fun. Damn it I had to do a few takes on the guitars because I kept screwing up, and then after my vocals were done I found I didn't put enough reverb on them so they might sound sort of dry and....well, bad. haha It was fun though I have to say, I stubbed my...

    What is Ric Grech doing to the bridge of his bass?

    I saw this picture of the bass player from Blind Faith, and was wondering why he has that foam or whatever it is under his strings on the bridge. Anyone know what he is trying to do? I've just never seen this before. http://www.angelfire.com/wi/blindfaith/bfphotogallery.html Its the second...

    Compressor threshold question, easy one.

    This is really stupid, but I'm reading up on compression and such, and they talk about high and low thresholds. I see that on compressors there are numbers like -30 or so up to +20 on the threshold knob. My question is: When the manuals are referring to a high threshold, whats the high...

    Can plugins be used during recording?

    Here's my problem. Today I was recording an acoustic rhythm guitar track using a condensor mic, going into my mixer and into my soundcard. When I was done, I looked at the wave form in ntracks and saw huge clipping peaks every now and then, but the rest of the wave was around -6 dB's. When I...

    Midi and Alesis sr16 drum machine

    Hi, I am wondering if I can use the analog left and right outs of the sr16 machine and go directly into my mixer instead of using the midi out, if I were to use a drum pad as a trigger which will go midi with the drum machine? I hope I'm wording this correctly. I would use a yamaha drum...

    Has anyone ever modified an alesis sr16 so other pads would work?

    I've got an sr15 drum machine and am wondering if it would be possible to rig it up so that I could make some trigger pads (like they make on that website with remo practice pads and a piezo) and hook those pads up to the alesis drum machine and use those to hit with some drum sticks instead of...

    Me, a friend and 3 new songs

    I used to play in a band with a guy from my hometown and we get together occasionally to goof around recording for a day. Well, now he just bought a Boss BR-1180CD digital recorder to upgrade from his tascam 4 track analog that we used to use when I was over. A few years ago he came down to...

    Corny love song crap for you to help with

    This is kind of easy listening stuff, but I'd like some help with making them sound a little better. The song "A simple thing" I recorded in 1999 then I had a 2 1/2 year dry spell, and finally just recorded another one called, "Together once again". So, its kind of a before and after. Same...

    Is there such a thing as high quality rca connectors?

    I have my monitors hooked up to a receiver that has rca jacks for the line ins. From my mixer I have two 1/4 inch to rca connectors connected to one of those dual rca cable (the kind with a red and a black rca male connector on both ends of it) then it plugs into the receivers line ins. I've...

    I wanna upgrade my abit be6/p3 500mhz

    I've been thinking about building a gaming/recording computer lately and think that maybe I'll just build it for the gaming part, and then see if my delta soundcard will work with it, but if it doesn't I'd like to upgrade a 2 year old computer I have right now, and just use this computer for...

    I'm having a hard time researching and trying to decide on which motherboard to use with a delta 1010 soundcard. I'm hearing that via doesn't work well with it (causing pops and clicks). Is anyone using this soundcard (or any delta series) with an amd type motherboard? I hear an epox 8k7a...
