I've only tried this at home, seems like works so I'm going to try it tonight at a gig: It's sort a poor man's in-ear monitor system. I'll be setting an sm57 out in front of the band, facing the band. Run the mic to a crate powerblock, with an alesis 3630 comprssor in the effects loop, and then...

Here's the Hart Studiomaster (with Acupads), $1449 includes throne, kick pedal, and Roland TD3 unit. http://www.musiciansbuy.com/mb/item.asp?ic=DSSMTD3KIT2 Here's the Roland, $895 but figure another $100 or so for throne and pedal...

I've got $200 credit to blow at Guitar Center and I'm thinking expanding my virtual instrument choices in S4. I'm looking at Garritan Personal Orchestra for $249 and Native Instruments B4 for $199. Any comments or recommendations? I'd just like to goof around a bit with the orchestra and I...

I think I'm missing something obvious here but..... Is it possible to use the Sonitus limiter while recording, or do I have use an outboard unit? Bill

Hello: HS2004XL Edirol PCR80 keyboard Yamaha DX200 sound module I'm trying to play the keyboard, have midi go to the DX200, and NOT the Edirol Virtual Synth track in HS. I've set the keyboard transmit channel to ch. 3, the DX200 to recieve ch. 3, and then, in HS track view, on the Edirol...

I'm presently using mackie VLZpro with a Rode NT-3 and SM57. My primary uses are vocals and acoustic guitar but I'd like something that will sound decent for recording a bluegrass band's practice sessions. My budget is small. From the great responses I got in another thread, I'm thinking of...

Would an AT3035 be a good choice for a $200 mic to record a five piece bluegrass group? I'm not trying to come up with a polished product, just a decent recording of practice sessions. I have an SM57, Rode NT-3, and Radio Shack 58 copy (got it with a used amp, it sounds pretty good!) but I'm...

I'm looking for neverending sustain, and really smooth distortion. I play a Strat through a Fender Hot Rod Deluxe at very, very low volume. I borrowed a Big Black Russian Mufff and a Vintage Rat yesterday, I think the Muff may be closer than the Rat, but I still feel like there's something...

Does anybody know of a good amp tech near Portland, Oregon? I just picked up a Princeton Reverb and I'd like to have it checked out. Thanks, Bill

Great Crap Almighty! All of the sudden, if I am using HS with Fruity Loops as a DXi and shutdown HS2004xl, I can't open HS again unless I reboot. No error message, just no response to my click. I recently tried disabling ACPI mode, a failed experiment, it wouldn't let me start XP except in safe...

Am I blind? I'm trying to find how to make HS slave to midi sync. I'm running FL as a DXi plug-in and hoping to be able to get the HS tracks to run when I start the sequence within FL. Just out of curiousity, is this something I could do with Sonar? Bill

I'm still having a problem with looping when I have a DXi synth track running. It will loop fine on the first run-through, but when I stop the song and then start again, I get a dropout at the end of the loop. I posted about this a month ago, and none of the suggestions (latency, buffers, pci...
