So im looking to update the pups in my New Ibanez RGA72tqm. Ive been playing a 7 string exclusively for almost 10 years & recently started playing a 6 again. On My 7 string (Ibanez 7420) i had Some Seymour Duncans (JB 7 string) put in in early 2009 & like them but wanted to look at whats...

OK, Back in January i took my guitar to "guitar center Concord" to get new pickups installed & while they were at it i said "see if you can get the action better & maybe refine the intonation a bit. I think it may have been off a hair & i record with it so i want it at its best so i`ll put my...

I`ve always used a Amp head & yesterday I bought my first power amp (the QSC - GX3). I have a 8 ohm cab with 4 12"s in it. Right now im running A line 6 X3 live through it. I`m getting a very weak amount of volume out of it. I have master output all the way up on the X3 Live & the tone volume up...

I just purchased a Firestudio Tube as well as currently own a MOTU 8 pre. The Firestudio Tube is a bit sluggish & has restarted my computer twice in the one quick recording session i have done (but is much better than my past experience with presonus restating every few minutes). My curiosity is...

About a year ago I purchased a Motu 8 pre. I think somethings wrong with it but was wondering if there is a easy way to find out ( maybe some kind of visual analysis tool or something). The problem i am having is it sounds hollow.The bass guitar is pathetic. Ive tried a bass pod as well as...

I`ve been trying to record my bass direct & am havin some trouble. Recently i started recording using a pod x3 live to record the bass & it sounds great. My only problem is that it seems to lack low back bone. Even sub bass sounds are empty. I`m running through a whammy, Wah & then the Pod X3...

Ive been thinkin of getting the "JBL LSR 4328p" monitors but after reading about the "Adam Audio A7" i`m thinin of givin them a try( i would eventually buy the "ADAM Audio Sub8" if i went with the "A7"). Has any of you heard both? The cheaper price would be great as well;)

I was wondering what methods homerecording.com user`s are using when recording. Feel free to share mic placement, compression before or after,the style,result, & feel you`ve achieved etc.. & share a little bit about yourself & your musical background if you like;)....GAME ON!!!

Does anyone know of anyone who records without compression on vocals & get pro results? I am interested in hearing what others have found successes with. If i can only get so far without recording with compression before eventually using it i would rather start recording with compression now.

For the last several years ive been recording vocals unprocessed directly into my computer. I find that the vocals are inconsistent in character though & have been told i should be recording with compression on the vocals as they go in & can understand why they would be done that way but is...

Last Month i bought a Pod X3 Live & am having a problem.The input distorts no matter what i adjust the trim knob to(or volume knobs).I record through a MOTU 8 pre & when going straight to the 8 pre i get no distortion But when running through the X3 Live i hear it. When plugging headphones into...

For some reason i i keep getting logged out & when i log back in my Thread has been posted two times.

I plan on purchasing a stereo pair of Quality preamps to use as my main preamps for recording & for my overheads alongside my MOTU 8 pre.I want commercial quality so i can hopefully start recording bands for a living or least get my name more known with out the torture & confusion of trying to...

I need to buy a sound card that has S/PDIF in & outs in order to use the reamping features of my Line 6 X3 Live. Ive looked at the "Audiophile 192" but ive read some negative things about it unlike the Audiophile 24/96 (which i own but is in another computer & i would prefer to upgrade instead...
