So I'm using Guitar Rig 5 with Reaper. I have 4 guitar tracks, all under one folder, for convenience. The problem is, when I turn on GR on that folder, all the tracks in that folder become centered. I know I'm missing something obvious :spank: , what is it? Thanks :thumbs up:

Haven't posted here for a while, here's a new one. The singer/guitarist wanted me to try some new things, plus this was done super fast, so I'm not sure how it came out. Feed back is, as always, appreciated. :D EDIT: New mix in the post below.

Has anyone taken it?

PreSonus Is this the beginning of the end of Firewire in audio interfaces ? As far as I know, Presonus was the only brand pushing Firewire harder than USB.

What would be the easiest way to pan a track on one side and it's effects on the other? I want to be able to pan a guitar on one side, and it's reverb on the other. One way would be to copy the wav file and paste it on another track, and add reverb to the second one. Another way would be to...

I remember when I just started playing drums, I put tape on the underside of my cymbals. Not because I needed to damp the cymbals or anything, but because I saw it in the Smells like teen spirit video :D I did realize later on that it was stupid and took it off. I'm wondering if any of you have...

Hey peepz, this is a song called You you you by the Polysics. All feedback is, as usual, greatly appreciated. I can't sing, and I hardly speak any Japanese (the song is Japanese), so if you find yourself wondering what the hell's going on, now you know :D

I like the versatility of a guitar sim, you have the option of choosing from tons of different effects. Heck, you can even make your own. I think it's safe to say gone are the days when distortion from anything other than pedals or amplifiers sounded like crap. There are some pretty decent sims...

Hey all, just got done recording this song. I bought a new mic pack for toms, the Samson one, so I threw in a lot of tom action to check em out :D All feedback is greatly appreciated, and thanks for listening !

I'm looking to buy a new pair of monitors, my budget is $400 for the pair. Not a lot I know, but that's all I have right now. I know there's no "best" pair under 400 :p but I want to know about your experience with budget monitors, specifically Alesis MK2, Tannoy Reveal501, RP6, HS50M, Fostex...

I know how compression works, what I'm wondering is, what kind of compression do you put on the song as a whole? Obviously, there's no fixed formula and it varies, depending on the song, but what exactly do you guys look (or hear) for when compressing the final mix (I guess that means during...

A friend came over today, and he was playing a song on the acoustic, so I started recording it. Put in a little bass and drums, and did a quick mix. Not sure what the name of the song is, I've heard it before but don't remember the name. Feedback is, as always, appreciated.

Here's a cover of Have a Cigar by Pink Floyd. It's more of a cover of the Foo Fighter's version though. Do the vocals sound really bad? And more importantly, any suggestions for improvement? Thanks.

When I'm recording drums on Reaper, I don't want to hear myself in the headphones; since the drums are loud enough anyway. But even when none of the tracks are armed, I can still hear myself through the mics. Maybe it's a soundcard issue? I use a Firestudio Mobile.

My cover of Cecilia Ann. It's by the Surftones, but the Pixies version is more popular. Any mixing advice is greatly appreciated, thanks!
