So I've heard from some people that the biggest investment in your studio could be your desk chair because of all the time you'll spend in it. So my question is, anyone know of any good ones? I need one that can get decently high up. Anyone know where to look? thanks for the help. -Elliot

So as of now I just have an equalizer for my rack because I'm scared to buy extras because of this... I'm using an Alesis Multimix16 Firewire mixer to record directly to the computer and I tried hooking up my equalizer into the mixer and it worked as far as I could tell when just listening to...

I went into this little music shop this last summer and this guy ranted for a long time about how good Giannini guitars were and how that's all he sold because they were the best. They're acoustic guitars and I really want to get an acoustic, and I figure I mine as well get a nice one. Anyone...

I'm looking into upgrading my tuning keys because the stock keys on my guitar just aren't cutting it for me. They aren't precise enough and one of them is halfway broken. But anyways, what would you guys recommend for a ratio on the tuning keys? I was looking at 21:1 because I figure the higher...

So I'm looking into what I'm going to invest in for my next amp and I want a cab and head. And since I've heard so much about tube amps, I'm looking into tube heads. I know they aren't cheap, but are there any great ones out there that are great quality? The cheaper the better. I've found two...

I know that this is probably the wrong forum to be putting this in, but I didn't know which one to put this in. So I have my own backyard studio and someone came up to me wondering if they could use it and have me be the engineer guy or whatever. I'm wondering what I should charge him and his...

I'm looking into finding a full keyboard with a nice feel like an actual piano...so weighted keys. And I don't need many effects. Just as long as there is the regular piano sound and other effects I would love are orchestral sounding sounds. Sorry for asking. Thanks for the help :) -Elliot...

So we recorded a song and I we're having trouble keeping the distortion under control. We've tried recording the guitar with less Gain/Drive and then we just end up making it have not enough distortion for it to sound decent. If that makes any sense. So yeah, I just feel that there is too much...

What does everyone recommend for the quality of the export. I believe you can have like 8 bit, 16 bit, and 24 bit. Which would you choose? and also there is the second option of kb/s or Khz (I think it's one of those..not sure though) You can have anywhere from like 8,000 - 96,000 or something...

So I'm looking into getting these two speakers, I believe they are peaveys. But they are huge, they have an 18" speaker and the horn above it, I believe. They can handle up to 800 watts. My question is, will these speakers need extra power than just my small power mixer? I have a behringer...

So my school sold me this AWESOME AMAZING organ for 5 bucks. It's amazing like seriously. It's huge, and heavy, like 300-400 pounds. It has 3 keyboards, pedals and yeah. Effects for each individual keyboard and then a set for the pedals and such. But yeah, I'm new to organs, but I had to jump on...

So I have an equalizer and I'm new to recording. I have a firewire mixer that I'm using..an alesis multimix 16. But yeah, I'm using cubase le also as a program if you need to know that. I have this DOD equalizer that does wonders for the sound of the drums when I hook it up to the mixer. But...

I was offered a 5 string Epiphone thunderbird bass guitar for 520 with hard case included. It's in pretty good condition. I need to know within like a half hour. THanks for the help! -Elliot

So I'm new to Cubase LE and yeah, i've recorded a couple of tracks and such and exported them with no problem. This project is the first project that I have put two tracks onto the one project, and for some reason it won't let me export it. Here's a picture of what is happening. Any help would...

So I got some new pickups/humbuckers for my guitar and this was the first time I hooked up new hookups before. So as of now the pickups work amazing! I'm very pleased with my investment, but the one thing is, like the swtich that toggles from one humber to both, to the other. So I'm using each...

I recently bought an alesis firewire mixer which cubase LE came free with. I'm wondering how do I playback my recordings through my monitors? Thanks for the help -Elliot

So I was playing my guitar tonight with my headphones hooked up to my amp and the question dawned on me. "Why wouldn't I record through this line-out on my amp? It sounds like good quality to me" So there you have it. What are the pros and cons of recording with the line-out of the amp? And then...

So I've been researching some pre-amps and reading threads around here about them and so on and so forth. So I figure before I should start thinking about how many channels I would want, I wanted to know what the best way to go about getting pre-amps is. I'm wondering preferences really, because...
