    bad singer

    I wrote these lyrics just now, it might just be that I'm tired, but, I like the story.. I just don't like the way I worded it. it's suppose to be about this kid who writes "the best song in the world" but since he's such a bad singer it gets passed off as garbage.. here : his name was some one...

    starting a buisness?

    I'm sure I've read threads on this before, but I can't find any right now.. So I'll start a new thread. I'm a novice recording engineer (In my opinion).

    Why have multiple guitars?

I have multiple guitars to show my progress, my first ever guitar is a small beat-up accustic I got for free on wich I learn picking and fingering and a few basic chords. my second guitar is the first guitar I bought, a fender strat clone, for my...

    Names?

    what are the names to the diffrent parts of recording? this is what I "think" there called.. am I correct? or am I mistaken? setting up mics = engineering setting levels on all the tracks adding EQ/compression, ect = Tracking final brush-up/exporting = mastering keeping an eye out over the...

    NoOb questions about digital 4-tracking

    looks like you've got a good Idea of what to do yes, at a quick glance all of those interfaces look like they would be fine. yes you "can" go from the XLR to the 1/4, but I would not recommend it (you loose the ground, so it's more likely to pick up noise) and also I didn't read all of the...

    Drum practice Idea, your thoughts?

    Elton Bear: well, you won't be getting much more out of it, It would basicly be playing from a music sheet with the CD but the music sheet moves, and tells you weather or not you hit the right not at the right time. tojo: do you have a link to this Program? Greg_L: well, that's the point. I...

    Drum practice Idea, your thoughts?

    well I was just kinda looking at the Rock band thing... and I got an Idea. hook up pizzo triggers to the bottom of all my toms and symbals, hook it up to my computer, program a "game" that takes a midi drumfile (lets say from guitar pro) and instead of hitting fake triggers to let sound out of...

    Table in the making

    I had a pretty nice mixing desk back at my parent's place, but now I have moved, and I couldn't take it with me, so I'm building a new one, better than before! here is my design (it's not to scale, but it's a good reference for me): (for some sort of reason is scaled down my picture... sorry...
