    Rack Mount vs. Stomp Box

    I am thinking of buying a wireless guitar rig. I've seen rack mounted units like the Line6 G90, stomp boxes like the Line6 G50 and then units like the Shure's that are neither stomp nor rack mount. Sound, features, etc. aside...what are your opinions on stomp vs. rack vs. shelf units?

    Sonar 8.5.3 Slow File Load and Save?

    Hey all...last night, I upgraded from 8.5.2 to 8.5.3 (Producer). Now when I open a file, or save a file, the file status bar comes up at the bottom of the screen...and no kidding each file operation lasts about 5 minutes. This is killing me. Anyone else seeing this with 8.5.3? Is it possible to...

    New Song - Time to Make a Choice

    Greg_L, I appreciate your feedback, and of course...I want you to be honest. Start a war, I think is a bit rough, but I am fairly happy with it. I have re-tracked the OD guitar a couple of times, and I am having trouble getting the sound I want. I agree that it is harsh, not what I intended...

    New Song - Time to Make a Choice

    Thanks for the feedback guys, I appreciate it. We are in talks to get permission to use the BSG clip, but we may be dropping it. I had a thing for awhile for creating theme tunes, but as you guys pointed out they can be distracting, so I am still trying to decide on how to handle that. As for...

    Black Magic Woman recorded LIVE Feb 19, 2011.

    The second mix is much better. I still wouldn't mind a little more presence in the whole mix, but as it is, its pretty damn nice.

    opinions on Final mix/master

    Very solid mix. Maybe a touch less cymbals, and a touch more vocals and kick. Great mix, very crisp. Very pro sounding.

    help for newbie, please :)

    I agree with everything Gecko said. Sounds like you have some cool ideas, and the ability to play, the mix just needs work.

    Megaphone Effect

    Thanks for the assistance guys. All great info. I think I do need to get one for the studio, and I think I'll go tube...but hell I dunno...do I go combo or stack? Vintage?

    Megaphone Effect

    I guess I should be more specific...I have an already tracked vocal, on which I'd like to simulate a megaphone effect instead of re-tracking with a megaphone.

    Megaphone Effect

    Hey all...I am working in Sonar 8.5. I am looking for a nice megaphone effect for a vocal track. Does anyone know of a good, quick and dirty VST (preferably free of course), or better yet, a recommendation on EQ, Compression, et. al that could accomplish this without any fancy tools? JD.
