    I just can´t sing in tune

    You need this. It's a pitch matching program. It's really basic, but it works.

    Mod Allen & Heath for direct outs?

    Well, if you wanted them prefader, you could just install a patch point using a 1/4" TRS Jack (IIRC it's a closed circuit jack - you'd have to look at the jack - the one you'd need has an extra piece on it that makes contact when there is no jack present in the return section of it - so that teh...

    How did you learn to sing?

    I chose other because I did both, but two of the things that really helped were some things I bought online. The first thing I bought was a specialized breath training program and a device that helps strengthen the muscles you breathe with. At first, I was thinking I got taken, but I wasn't...

    Mod Allen & Heath for direct outs?

    It's from the Mid 80's - it's a good board, but it is really kind of barebones; a friend had one... I think that model sold for around $1,500 in say... 1985 or 1986.... I remember thinking that was a small fortune for a mixingboard considering we paid $2,500 for a huge (used) 24-channel Peavey...

    Mod Allen & Heath for direct outs?

    Well, if you really wanted to, you should be able to tap off of the fader, and have a post fader direct out.

    Hard rock tune..

    Okay, that link works for me. Great sound man! The whole band sounds good, but the singer is great. (being both a drummer and a singer, I appreciate both, but this guy has a really good voice. I really like the hi-hat work.)

    Another COVER! You got a problem wit dat????

    I'm not a big fan of the song, but I think you did an excellent job on this. I love the kick drum sound, and the rest of the kit sounds just fine to me.

    Where to buy cable for DIY cables?

    Forget radio shack. Parts Express carries Carroll brand cable (It's good - I've used thousands of feet of it) of feet of it online. it's a MUCh better grade of cable, and probably will cost about as much as what you're paying at Ratshack. Plus, you'll havea pro grade cable...Rs basically...

    DIY fix: Speakon to XLR?

    Okay, here is where you are confused. While an XLR (the F=Female) CAN handle a powered signal, it is really normally used as a balanced Line (pos, neg, common ground) or Microphone line. The vast majority of sound gear does not use XLR as a speaker terminal, so most people would think that it is...

    I want to build a talkbox.

    Just buy a new horn driver - if you go to parts express you can get one for fairly cheap. Or you could go the really cheapo route. I've made one using a 4" speaker. Make a little box to put the speaker in, and then glue a funnel face-down over it with a hot glue gun, and attach the rubber...

    Help me choose a hi hat

    Argh! As a non-drummer I must protest. My drummer had those and I HATED them. How clunky sounding can you get? Then I heared the Rudes. even worse. Luckily (for me) he got a pair of the 14" Signature ones used off of E-bay. Now man, those babies are sweet! I about had a fit when he said that...
