I'm messing with a couple of configurations, and truthfully, there's too many pedals and not enough time. If anybody wants to think of a good configuration, or how you would line these guys out, i'd appreciate it. It'll save me some experimenting time! Here's my pedals. I've got several A/B...

Any users of this? How does it compare to the Beta 58A or the Beta 87?

Hey. Looking for a couple of options. I'm sharing frontman duties with my buddy in the band. He's got a Shure Beta 58a and i'm using either a shure 58 or a berry 8500. I need a mic that's gonna stand well with the beta 58 and wondered what was out there now... Thanks, Blind Cowboy...

My pedals: Jimi Hendrix Wah, EH Holy Grail, EH Big Muff Pi, Fender PT100 tuner, Vintique Volume Pedal, Boss DD-3 Delay, DOD Chorus, DOD Phaser. I've got a case full, but these are the only I really play with alot. Before you ask: I play country/rock. I play through a '65 Bassman head into a...

So, i'm walking through this great shop in downtown Houston, and on the wall is a '1960's Gibson' guitar. The headstock sticker is gone, but the shadow is still there and obviously a Gibson shadow. The marker in the soundhole is gone, and it looks like someone may have tried to strip the top at...

I just finished putting together a drum set from a garbage dump that a friend gave me. Fixed/replaced/fabricated the fittings, new heads, whalla. A drum set. Go to GC and buy a standard pack of cymbals, 2 14" hats and a crash/ride. Highhat stand, and a cymbal stand for the CR. Now, I wanted to...

http://www.ibanez.com/guitars/guitar.asp?model=AF75D Man, that damned Ibanez Artcore in Tennessee Orange with a cream pick-guard. I just kept looking at it, and playing it. My buddie's the store manager for the local GC, and sold me one for $260.00. This is a fabulous guitar. Absolutely...

I posted this in the Cubase section, but it really can pertain to any software. I was in Microcenter yesterday and picked up a Saitek Actionpad controller for $4.00. Damned near eliminated my need for a keyboard. http://www.microcenter.com/single_product_results.phtml?product_id=175524

Hey. I was at microcenter yesterday and picked up a Saitek action pad for $4.00. This thing is awesome for programming my Cubase commands. Just eliminated my keyboard. http://www.microcenter.com/single_product_results.phtml?product_id=175524

OK. I'm watching CMT and Kenny Chesney's video for "I Go Back" is on. He's standing in a High School gymnasium w/ a mic and stand. No I don't have a pic. If anyone's seen the video, can you identify the mic? It's quite odd, yet cool looking.

Hey... OK. I stopped by GC for the new equipment on the junk drums. My music focus' around country. If that matter's in the question. Set is I believe Slingerland. 22 bass, 16 floor tom, (2) 12 toms. Guy suggesed Remo pinstripes and a powerstroke3 for the bass drum. Are pinstripes 2 ply? I'm...

OK. I'm not a drummer. But, i've got a studio and a friend of mine said that he had a nice set of drums in his garage that needed a little cleaning. "I was going to save them to pass down. But, i'd love to hear you get some use out of them." <- Guilt trip and anger will ensue If I get rid of...

OK. So, i've modified my plans that some of you may remember for a small recording room. I've decided instead to go with a vocal booth that can serve as an amp booth that will comfortably fit two (2) people. Nicest thing is that I should have a total build cost under $300.00. I've got access...

Can anyone suggest a decent A - D convertor? Nothing fancy, just reasonably priced. I've been looking at the Art DI/O, but would like something cheaper, if I can get my hands on it. Analog to S/PDIF coaxial(RCA). No frills.

I've been thinking on and off about building a small project studio. But, with very little space to work with, it hasn't been a real possibility. So, I looked at what I really need, and where I spend the most time when i'm in a professional studio. And, that would be the booth. Roughly 85% of...
