I know that power amps can be used to power passive monitors or speaker cabinets for your guitar, but what else are they used for? Every rack picture I see over at the Harmony Central group has power amps. Am I missing something? Thanks for not flaming me?

Yeah but... I didn't buy a $1000 guitar to chip "character" into it.

Well, I managed to chip the paint on the front of my Ibanez with the edge of a chair. The wood is not damaged, the chip is about as big as a dime. Any suggestions on repair (besides slapping a sticker over it)? <weeping> Thanks

Yes the Delta 66 is multiple input but that is not what I'm doing... I use Drag and Drop Drummer to paste in the drums first. Then I playmy guitar while recording and monitoring over the drums. That's 1 input at a time. This is exactly what I was doing in HS 9 and it worked perfectly. I can't...

I just upgraded from 9.0 to h.s. 2002... I was very happy with 9.0. Drag and drop drummer worked well, recording was seamless... BTW, I am running both an Soundblaster Audigy (for games) and a midiman delta 66 w/ Omni Studio (for recording). Now that I've installed 2002 some problems have...

Anyone who has played Epiphone Les Pauls have opinions on how they compare to Gibsons? Obviously the price difference should include the name and maybe workmanship, but how does the sound compare? Any other pros or cons to Epiphone over Gibsons?

Or pros and cons for the Yamaha MSP5's or the Tannoy Reveal actives? Thanks again !

Any pros and/or cons for either? Alot of people here talk more about the Events than the Alesis... I like the idea of the powered Alesis but if the Events are better for reproducing the sound that I'm recording, what is the best amplifier to go with them? I can't justify the 20/20bas :( I'm...

Hi again... After too much research (my head is spinning from the last three months), I may choose to go with the "Roll Your Own" AMD 1.4 Thunderbird, KK266, Maxtor drives, rack mount case, blah blah DAW. At first I wanted your regular Intel Pentium III so my wife and I could play our games and...

I'm interested in this card for the number of inputs/outputs and it supports MIDI... This way, I would not need a Soundblaster type card for the midi... But, would the Delta work with games, like Counterstrike or Unreal or any other Windows type media, MP3's, playing CD's? I'm building a DAW but...

More Specs, Q's Hey Gang, thx for the posts... I plan on getting 2 IBM Deskstart 75GXP, 40 gig, one for apps, the other for all music files... Ultra ATA/100, 7200 rpm. 2MB Data Buffer, 100 MB/sec transfer rate... I assume that Cakewalk and Drag and Drop Drummer will be installed on the C drive...

Hi all, thx in advance for any comments... I am doing tons of research before shopping and I'd like you guys to comment on my setup... Computer: Intel PIII 850, ASUS CUSL2-C, 512 DIMM RAM, cd burner, Soundblaster Platinum 5.1 and ATI Rage Fury graphics (games, dvd)... I know that I need a...

If that's the case... Sounds like I have three options... 1. Have both cards and have dual boot (which I don't like), 2. Have both cards and two hardware configurations (which scares me.... I don't want an unstable system), 3. Have both cards, and run both at the same time which also seems...

ok... Thx for the info TdukeX... Tell me, is the M-Audio Delta 44 card a good gaming card? Although I'm primarily building the computer for a DAW, I still want to play my favorite games (CounterStrike, Quake, etc...) Are there any limitations of the 44 for regular computer use? Thx again for...

Ugh!! Thanks for your comments Emeric. I just looked at the price of the Layla24 that I was interested in and realized that $800 is not "hobby" recording. Are there equal quality soundcards that are MIDI combatible for around $200? Looks like the Soundblaster Platinum Live! will win based on...
