    Soundproof box

    Here's my situation: Limited space and close neighbors so I can't be loud + I work nights so I'm up and recording while roomates are sleeping. My idea: Build a sound proof box, throw a matress on it and use it as a bed and recording.....box. I figure it will be about 5 feet tall and the size...

    Help...importing midi files to dr-880

    Hi. I'm trying to import these midi files into my drum machine (Boss DR-880). I want the drum machine to play only the drums and bass of the midi file. There is a menu where I select which midi channel to import for the drums and the bass. The drums are usually on channel 10, but not always. The...

    What kind of amp would you suggest?

    Hi. I recently bought a Marshall JCM2000 duel super lead 100w head with a 1960a speaker cab. After I finally got it up and running right (I never knew there was so much to owning a tube amp like warming the tubes, matching ohms, using a speaker cable and not a guitar cable, etc.) I soon began to...

    Easy questions about my new amp

    Hi. I bought a used Marshall JCM 2000 Duel Super Lead 100w and a 1960a cab the other day and I'm just getting ready to go to the store and buy a new fuse for it. Apparently, you have to hook this thing up a certain way or it fcks up. I downloaded a manual off the net, but it's kind of confusing...

    Need a MIDI Editor

    Hi. I'm looking for a free or cheap MIDI editor. All I need it to do is tell me what is on each of the MIDI Channels. I'm importing MIDI files from the net onto my drum machine and I need to know which channel is the bass....every file I find seems to be different.

    Pre-amps, playing direct, and effects software

    Ok, I have been reading "Home Recording for Musicians for Dummies" and I think I'm getting this all down. Still a bit fuzzy on a few things here.... 1. The book stresses that pre-amps are very important to my sound. I looked for pre-amps on zzounds....I didn't find any. I found mic pre-amps. Is...

    Just wanted to post a song.....

    ..because I have nothing else to do. I don't have any recording gear yet, so I can't really post very much more than just lyrics, but that will soon change. This one is a depressing merge of two seperate songs that I wrote a very long time ago. Hope you like it. Come with me -verse- I'm pale...

    Does this ever happen to you?

    Your sitting there with your instrument when suddenly inspiration hits. You come along something that is pleasing to your ears and the melody just starts to flow. You go over it and over it again and again until you have a basic idea of what the song will be like. Finally, you are happy with...

    Just for a little fun....how would you critique these lyrics???

    Now before you do....you have to imagine that you have never ever heard this song before. Pretend that I have just posted up these lyrics and I'm requesting some feedback. I'm just wondering how the worlds greatest rock song (according to VH1) stacks up on HRBBS. Satisfaction I can't get no...

    What do you guys think?

    Here's a list of all my lyrics so far. Just wanted to get some feedback. This is the first song I wrote. It's kinda depressing... Alone I am so alone Nobody knocks on the door no calls on the phone Nobody gives a fuck cause nobodys home. I am....I am How many times? How many ways? How many...

    Coming up with riffs on the guitar

    I completely suck at writing riffs on the guitar. Everything I write is pretty damn basic. Sometimes a simple riff fits well into a song, but sometimes I wish I could write something really nice like the guitarist for creed, the red hot chili peppers, or metallica. My stuff is childs play...
