    Your Drugs are as Bad as Mine

    Jim, Thanks for asking. Unfortunately, my job here in Europe has been taking most of my time. But things are leveling out now. Even got time to play around with my recording rig a little this past weekend! Glad to see you are still actively sharing your work. Who knows, I may cop your...

    Korg D8

    I've got a D-8 and am thoroughly happy with it. Rather then elaborate here, check out the following link which has a FAQ compiled from a Korg D-8 user group: http://www.bogartz.com/d8/faq.html Ranger

    Effects : SoundBlaster Live! Platinum vs Guillemot MaxiStudio ISIS

    Chris, I have the ISIS, and the sound quality is very good, in my opinion. And the breakout box is great...actually the reason I bought the card in the first place! I needed the digital ins and outs it offers. ISIS comes with Cool Edit SE and a version of Logic Audio. There are some effects...

    Advice: USE LINUX

    I think y'all should be ashamed!!!!! Quit bashing poor Linux. He always plays a mean piano in those Charlie Brown specials! Ranger

    ahh... hello, any body out there?

    You are right about the dust accumulating. But I still use n-Track as my primary recording software...with zero problems. Could this be the reason for so few posts? Ranger

    Les Paul or Rickenbacker?

    Maybe this question is too obvious, but have you played both of them? These are two very different sounding guitars. I like the sound of both, but for different types of music. Ric's can even sound great with distortion (ala, Peter Buck). But for a good all around versatile sound and...

    Candidate for the Comp CD?

    Jon X, Finally got a chance this morning to download and listen to this tune. I have to say you would be wasting your time with this one...NOT!!! An awesome tune; can't wait to hear it with the lyrics! You have definitely nailed the SRV sound. I gotta know your setup on the guitar rig...

    Not sure which song to submit?

    Hindsight! Slack, I'd forgotten I'd listened to and enjoyed that one previously. Good, solid song...really enjoy that guitar sound as the chorus kicks in...some kinda David Bowie thing going on there. Just one more example of why this CD Comp is gonna be awesome. Ranger

    MP3.COM - the end of our troubles?

    CMiller, The costs on the previous projects I mentioned ran from a low of $10 to a high $15 per member for a CD-R. Again, these weren't really mass produced...typically burned for those who contributed and the few extra board members who didn't contribute but wanted to buy a copy. Hope this...

    MP3.COM - the end of our troubles?

    Here's my 2 cents...I don't think we should go the mp3 route at all. If our goal was to just listen to a few tunes and leave it at that, mp3 would be fine. But to hear the nuances of our recordings, we should go without using lossy compression methods. There are a number of us who have...

    Mastering ground rules.

    Firstly, I'd like to thank everyone here who is offering to put all our music together. As most of us have heard, there is quite a bit of talent in this forum. And I've certainly learned alot by reading what techniques members used to get their sound. Secondly, I think Sonusman is being very...
