I have a 1960 Kalamazoo (Gibson) Model One 5 watt tube amp that has some pretty awesome tone and perfect for my home recording volume wise. All 100% class A desong with three tubes....the budget part of this Gibson line is the cabinet is made or particle board. The only weak spot is the...

Just curious if anyone has tried out one of the Dean semi-hollow body 12 string electrics like the Sarasota or the Bocca? http://www.deanguitars.com/sarasota_12.htm I have not seen any at the local GC to try out. At their price point (under $500) they look nice in the photo's but I would...

Anone here ever hear of these pickups? www.Q-tuner.com They get into some metaphysical stuff about sound and psychology. I do believe there is a relationship to chords, rhythms, tones and scales to emotions but not that a specific pickup would be more emotionaly intune than another pickup...

Okay I want to know who is running up the prices of these things on e-bay? Please stop. :mad: When I first read about them they were supposed to be very inexpensive used, extremely durable and pleasant for an omni dynamic mic. Prices were described as $20 -$35 used. Being I don't have any...

I did a search on this and found two analogue options but most of the posts were 2002 and 2003 and I have a third digital option here. I am loving alot of the sounds of the 5050 through the headphones but as you know going straight into the 16G does not sound so good. Three options I see for...

This sounds like it could be usefull for me with signal routing... has anyone tried this product or heard anything. It is an 8 channel single rack space signal dustribution device with eight individual transformers. http://www.musiciansbuy.com/QUIKLOK_T8_KYBD_STAND_.html The part that sounds...

Okay I have spent over an hour searching this whole BBS because I found it here once before and bookmarked it...but that was before my hard drive died.... Anyway I know there was at least one site a guy maintained that tracked sale prices of used recording gear and musical instruments from...

While I of course plan to do trials of different ways of doing this I was wondering when reamping all your electric guitars who had a preference for 1. Getting the guitar about as distorted and EQ'd as you want it on the way in and reamping that with a fairly "flat" setting on the amp versus -...

Has anyone got to play with one of the new Taylors with the multi transducers and Neve designed preamp on board? I know for most things nothing is going to beat micing a good acoustic guitar in a good room through a good mic preamp but this could have some uses for recording mixed in with the...

Your mission is to help me connect a Roland SRV-3030D with digital RCA connectors to my Yamaha AW16G with Toslink connectors utilizing the digital aux in and out. In searching this forum I found one or two threads saying it can't be done and one or two more saying I just need a fifteen dollar...

Besides Parts Express what are some good (price, quality and selection) speaker replacement sources? I have an old pair of Bose Interaudio (gag and 20 years old!) home speakers that I used to use in the garage with an old reciever/CD player that died. The woofer surrounds look a little worse...

I am attaching a frequency response graph for a "microphone" that peaks between 300Hz and 700Hz with a rapid drop off after 700Hz. For all intents and purposes it is a microphone but it was not designed for music recording applications. Can you guess what it was designed for? (One hint it is...

I am trying to install a demo version of Sonar 2.0 that came with my AW16G. When installing I got a DirectX 8.1 not detected (and obviously required by Sonar 2.0). So I downloaded DirectX8.1 twice and installed it several times but I still get this message when I try to install the Sonar 2.0...

Disclaimer...I posted this at Studio Forums as well but have not gotten much response so I am going to try here as well. I am not so much a PC recorder at the moment and went with a Yamaha AW16G for my needs, budget and intermittent PC imcompatiblity issues. I do have FL Studio (hoping to...

I just noticed this the other day...so what is the story behind the "Reputation Points"? Is this a popularity contest or are points awarded by Moderator's for good knowlegable friendly advice versus subtracted for BS Poser posts and general rude behavior? Just curious if I should be...
