So this was my first "real" "professional" electric guitar. Always having being a rebel who didn't want what everyone else had, and being in Brisbane, Queensland, Australia, I eschewed Fender Strats etc. (which cost less, and BTW there were only MIA strats at the time...) and frankly there...

I was blissfully unaware of these things until I read Lord Foul's thread below/above. Now I would have thought that an acoustic guitar's tone (a guitar of any quality, anyway) would be something the maker went to considerable effort to get right, so to "improve" it via these pins (as the...

This works well...

Stuff I'm working on now tends to have lots of electric guitar parts... not necessarily strumming / chordy stuff, more like rhytmic lines playing in and out of each other, sometimes, but not always all playing at once. Current track has 8 parts - 3 sets of doubles and a couple of other ones...

... for soft rock only.:laughings:

I'm being stuffed around on a major purchase of something else so I'm going to put the hard word on the retailer to give me something at cost price to soothe me.... :D Either of these would be handy from time to time, but which? I have little interest in anything but correcting the pitch on my...

OK, I'm not talking amp sims here, not interested in them, I'm talking phasers, and flangers and choruses and delays and the like. stompbox stuff. And I'm being lazy. Anyone have any particular line/source of VSTs they recommend for electric guitar? I've got a Boss GT10 with a gazillion...

Thanks all, as I said earlier, I thought I already had a proper coax cable, purple, which I've managed to locate: :D And the two units will be on top of each other, so no great length is required, anyway...

Not sure where to put this so I'll chuck it here... I'm going to attempt to connect a couple of components via SPDIF - both have in and out SPDIF connectors, which appear to me to look quite similar to RCA connectors. I'm wondering what to connect them with... From my googling, I'm seeing...

You know, amp settings, mic positions, guitars etc. My new year's resolution was to make a note of every setting on everything so I can recreate it later... but I need a way to attach that to each track. So Melda do a Notepad VST which allows you to do that but it's a bit clunky... because so...

If you were geting one of these: Hughes & Kettner Tubemeister 18 head would you get this: Hughes & Kettner TM110 cabinet or this: Hughes & Kettner TM112 cabinet to go with it? It's unlikely to leave my apartment - mainly for recording purposes... Cheers

I could just try it but nowhere near the recording PC for a while. My problem is I'm heartily sick of dealing with iTunes authorisation protocols, I've just migrated to a new general PC and iTunes has decided the computer isn't authorised (it is!) and has ripped the 43 tunes I've actually...

He's got a crappy amp and 2 small children so I'm assuming he's going to go the amp sim route rather than get on upset familial harmony by attempting to mic his amp. He's asking me what he needs. I've never used amp sims, and he has nothing apart from the (Mac) computer at this point. I'm...

Hi About time for a new laptop. It's just to replace my basic around-the-house machine that I do all my general computing, browsing, emailing etc. I have a very powerful / fast separate desktop for audio recording / mixing etc. Question is whether, for occasional offsite recording tasks...

Have a look at the post count on all the threads in this forum before you bother posting here... you're talking to no-one. This has been a public service announcement.

Hi I'm making a short movie of 4 people sitting round a square table, talking. There are two people on each of two edges, so no-one round the other two sides. Two camera angles. There's also microphone in front of each pair of people recording the conversation, so I don't need to rely upon the...

This is for a short film competition at work which I've been volunteered to assist with... There will be four people round a table chatting. I'm going to have to use two camera angles (with two cameras at the same time) to capture as much of the faces as I can, so that puts the cameras 6 to 8...

So we have the MP3 Clinic and lately, the Mix This! forum, and people are always dropping in here asking people to master their tracks for them.... and tell me how do I do this, and that, and every other thing to do with mastering. Just wondering if we should have a Master This! thread. Someone...

You need to master the art of standing over people and making them buy a CD.... damnit! :) I've sold probably as many as I will now, apart from the odd straggler, and I'm ~ $500 up on my cost of manufacture (there were two of us). It helps working in a large company and having a large IT...

... in Reaper. As far as I know I haven't changed anything from last week, and indeed the last year / entire album, when I've had zero such problems. Where should I look? And by massive number I mean more than once a second, all the way through anything I record. The machine has plenty of...
