well, I like all the sounds. just the whole warm, vintage vibe that I get from it. I'm not really knowledgable to explain it correctly.
I'm in the process of really starting to dedicate a part of my house to recording, and I want to make sure I'm going about this correctly. If you can tell me...
Hey guys,
The sound I'm trying to get with my studio right now is a lot like the the sounds that Devendra Banhart gets, if any of you listen to him.

I was wondering if anyone could identify what the boxes stacked about 10 high in the rack are at about...
mikemorgan, thanks. I guess i'll have some fishing to do.
Rory: what's this going to cost me? haven't quite figured it all out yet, but considerably less than a Gibson 335. Having owned some Gibson stuff, and knowing a 30+ year guitar player who has owned a world of gibson stuff, i've noticed...
Not positive, but I'm gonna go with: it is a Fender Tele, but with a custom, or maybe just an aftermarket, pick guard. Reminds me of the old-school Gibson SG pickguards. Also, that guitar has some P-90's in it, if that matters.
Hey folks, i'm currently in the process of gutting an Epiphone Dot. It's got a beautiful body and finish, but i'm changing most of the workings that go into the tone to make it worthy of that 335 shape (that's the tone i'm going for, after all).
So, the plan is replace the PU's with a classic...
great, thanks guys. i kind of figured it was a personal preference thing, but i was just confused a little since the two ideas are pretty much opposites. thanks again.
Ok, so the general opinion most people have about treating rooms is that deader is better, and that things like vocals should be recorded in an isolation booth to get the dryest sound possible, then add verb later. Now i'm confused as to why people record stuff like vocals in bathrooms, though...
ok, so pretty much deaden the whole room, except the floor? and, just for clarification, do i want bass traps or broadband absorbers, because i've read they are different (deaden different frequency ranges).
-edit-
by the way, i was wrong. the floor in there is hardwood.
-edit-
ok, so i...
thanks for the help guys.
So is this (the picture) pretty much what i should do, along with some absorbers on the ceiling and hopefully a reflective floor (is that only good for acoustic guitar, or good in general? i.e. vocals, electric, bass... it's going to be a general tracking room, not...
Hey guys, I'm moving into a new house, and connected to my room is a small walk-in closet that I want to convert into a small (and it is small for this type of thing- 6'x6') room for tracking single instruments/vocals at a time.
I plan on having my computer/preamps/etc... outside the room, and...
Ok, I figure this might be the place to post this, as it is a sort of newbie question, but if it's not i can repost in The Rack section.
So, I'm looking to set up a rack, and can't find the overview I'm looking for with the search option, but I might just be overlooking things.
I understand...
Hey, Ted, is 'denero' anything like the Spanish word for money, 'dinero'?
Or maybe your slang is just too highbrow for someone such as myself.
And, upon a search in Google, I can't find a website for Mystery Records. Please, Ted, direct me to the website that showcases your "wonderful"...
Thank you. I had previously been looking at the firepod, but I'm not sure if it is what I want or not. It is actually twice as much as the Phonic mixer, but actually has less inputs (I believe, my memory of the specs. of both might be a little off). So, the question is, is it really better...
