    Recording clean guitars...

    Hi guys! I was wondering what´s the role of volume when recording clean guitar tones... Most will agree that when you´re recording distortion, most amps sound better at high volumes... Does the same theory apply to clean tones (with ss amps)? What do you think?

    Hi guys... A couple of months ago I bought a notebook that came with Vista installed... I'm planning to use Ubuntu on the notebook and I would like to try Vista on my desktop pc...

    How about a sticky with soundcards roundtrip latency?

    I know Dragon doesn´t do it often, but maybe we can make a thread with roundtrip latency of many soundcards and use it as a reference for comparison or before buying... To test your soundcard latency you can use this free utility... http://www.centrance.com/downloads/ltu/ I can provide...

    Harvey, I have a(nother) question for you! :)

    I know a guy selling a Topaz for cheap... My only experience on recording is with my FirePod and I´m tempted to make the change... How do you use your Topaz in the studio? How do you have it hookedup with your DAW? (which ad/da or card are you using, are you mixing OTB, etc) Any comments or...

    Applying mixing concepts to a live gig...

    Hi guys... I´d been thinking about this lately... As a musician who is learning a little about recording and mixing, it´s really important to me to sound as good as possible every time I play live. Now... On my recordings I´d been experimenting with Lo and Hi Pass filters, thinking about how...

    Basic setup for guitar recording...

    Hi guys! I´m a drummer (who also plays guitar) but I don´t know much about gear... I have a MIJ Strat and a old (and pretty ugly) SS Peavy amp + a ProCo RAT... What´s the basic stuff I "should" have to cover most situations... (I already have my DAW, Firepod, mics, etc) I was thinking a new...

    When is enough?

    Hi guys... Maybe you can help to figure this out... I´d been improving the quality of my recordings by trying to learn how to use my (humble) setup... Recording at lower levels and mic placement already made an impact on my results... :) But I was thinking about this... It´s hard for me to...

    There´s something wrong with my bass?

    There´s something wrong with my bass, right? Hi guys... I´m using a custom made bass, loaded with 2 active EMG pickups... I´m not sure if there´s something wrong with it, but if I plug directly on my Firepod, with the volumen all the way up, it hardly peaks at -18 dbFS on Cubase ... And if I...

    Am I asking for trouble?

    Hi guys... I was wondering if I could use something like this to mic two rack toms from a drumset... http://oferta.deremate.com.ar/id=18212034_soporte-para-2-microfonos-a-un-solo-pie-nuevos (basically it holds 2 mics in 1 stand) Is it worthy, or am I just asking for a lot of phase problems...

    Applying compression to the Master Buss...

    Hi guys... I heard that that´s a pretty common thing to do... I have a friend who uses the Waves G-MASTER BUSS Compression with good results... I kind of lost on basic setting when using a compressor in that fashion... Should I start with an slow attack and release? or viceversa? Any...
