    Tube Replacement Help

    Sorry, I guess the question wasn't as clear as I thought it would read. When I asked what I should get I meant what kind of tubes. There's a ton of hissing coming from the amp so I asked a friend who knows a lot about these things and he walked me through inspecting them. The back ones are...

    Tube Replacement Help

    I've never changed tubes before, but my amp needs em. So, I'm wondering what you guys suggest I get. I've got a Mesa Nomad 55 single. Thanks for your thoughts.

    Monitoring Insert Effect

    Anyone? I'm looking through the manual but haven't found an answer yet. Is this even possible?

    Monitoring Insert Effect

    I plugged my guitar straight in to see if I like the amp simulator better than my actual amp, but I can't hear the product until I record it and then apply the insert. Any help on how to monitor the input with the insert running in Cubase 4? Thanks

    Beyer Opus 88 - anyone like theirs?

    Anyone else used this mic? What application are you using it for? I've tried it on snare a dozen times now and I can't get a good sound from it at all. It picks up low frequency pretty well, but absolutely no crack - contrary to reviews I read before purchasing. All it does, even on a...

    Drum Isolation

    That design can't hurt. It worked for Mike Portnoy on the Liquid Tension album. There's a picture inside the jacket of him recording behind such a set-up. And his had foam on it, not fiberglass or insulation of some sort. So, yes, it should help. Especially in a bedroom where it will cut down...

    record metronome?

    If you leave the click in the "on" position when you export the audio mixdown, then it should export the click sound also. It will probably be in the mix at the same volume that you have it set to in the "metronome setup" panel. Try it and see if it works. It has worked for me in the past. I'm...

    Art work on panels

    Thanks Frank. I've looked extensively at the work you guys do, so your compliment means a lot. There are some very cool concepts you have developed with your company. Once I begin to hang these things I might post a few pics and ask for a little bit of guidance on placement, if you don't mind...

    Art work on panels

    3 down. The others will be in a different cloth.

    Art work on panels

    Finished the first one. Never done one before. Seems like it worked out pretty well. Instead of finding art work for all of them I just chose really nice fabrics for them.

    Son of a.....

    I made my first panel frame....ever And its a little too big. Now I gotta disassemble and re-cut. The measurements given for this material have got to be wrong. The frame is even smaller than the measurements would indicate need be required. Just felt like sharing my frustration.

    Art work on panels

    Cool work Dinty. Scott, I had looked at your slide show before and liked your panels. Actually, I came across it as I was trying to get ideas for how I wanted mine to look. I watched the video and decided I'm probably just better off buying some particular fabrics than trying to be an artist...

    Art work on panels

    Moresound - that's pretty much what I had in mind. I might try that to a small extent. I found a few people who told me they could do airbrush stuff for me - but it was also expensive, so that option was not really a good one. I found some good looking fabrics. Gonna work on them in the next...

    Art work on panels

    The idea of just a bunch of black panels (or whatever color, take your pick) doesn't sound so appealing to me. I'd love to draw or paint on the fabric covers, or even find some cotton fabrics with pictures already on them. Obviously I can't paint the whole thing - then no sound will get...

    Akg d40

    I picked up a couple of these for $75 each. About $25 off retail (depending on where you buy of course). I'm wondering what people here think of them - if you've used em. I A/B'd it on the mid-tom against an old CAD NDM 10 drum mic that I haven't used in about 5 years. Seemed like the AKG had a...
