I downloaded the Reason demo, and was so impressed that within a couple days I bought it. Wanting to get a dedicated midi controller for my desk instead of using either of my fairly large keyboards, I found a deal on the cme u-key. I snapped it up quickly because it was refurbished and likely...

Sorry if this is the wrong forum for this question, but I got no help on either the beat-making or protools sections. What's your favorite virtual drums program for protools? I was all set to buy ezdrummer, but it's incompatible with protools 6.4, the latest version avalilable to us digi001...

I recenbtly tried out ezdrummer at a friend's, liked it, but found out it's incompatible with protools 6.x, and the latest version of pt available for my hardware is 6.4, so no ezdrummer. What other drum programs do you like that may be available for pt 6.4? I'm currently using frootyloops...

So I used toontrack ezdrummer at a friend's, and I liked it. Just found out it's incompatible with protools 6.x, and 6.4 is the highest I can go with my digi001. Is there a fix for this? If not, is there a similar product I could use in my ancient version of protools? I'm currently using...

I read about this on another thread, did a little looking on the web, and my question is this: at $100-$130 used, isn't this device with it's two onyx preamps a much much better deal than something like the dmp3? I've never used onyx preamps, but they get praised somewhat around here. Seems...

I'll bet we can all think of a guitarist or two we'd like to buy a set of these for: (click pic for site where, far as I can tell, this product is actually for sale)

I'm really curious about what kind of gear makes the bass sound in this one song, "You're So Beautiful" by Flight of the Conchords. Here's a picture of the bassist, I can't ID his instrument but who knows if it's the one he uses on the recording anyhow...

Like most of you, I'm guessing, I occasionally need to buy a new HD for those bulky recording sessions. Found this one today and got one, seems about as cheap as you can get per gigabyte, $110 and free shipping for 1 TB. ANyone know of a better deal, please, share!

I have grown to loathe my Ibanez cheapo bass. I want to upgrade, and I started checking out the instruments on recordings I like. And it turns out just about every bass sound I love in recordings is made by either a fender P or J (except for guys like Wooten and Claypool who have...

I've been recording for a few years, playing all instruments myself but drums, using fruity loops as a crutch. Now that I've got babies, though, I'm getting into more electro stuff, since I usually can't turn the amps up and record the way I'm used to. So, I'm getting deeper into fruity loops...

I'm recording this lady doing exercise routines, and she can't maintain any consistent distance to the mic or maintain a constant volume level too much either. I'm using compression, eq, and riding the volume slider like a rodeo cowboy... I'm just wondering if there's a mic that might help me...

I know that none of the comps or eq's I have are fit for mastering. Is the uad-1? I'm not looking to achieve professional studio results, but I do feel the need to sort of 'unify' or 'complete' a song, post-mix. I don't like the plugs that came with protools 6.4 le for this purpose, though...

Did one of you people build this? And can you build one for me? It would be fun to hook it up to crowd mikes, a little incentive for cheering.

This summer is the first time I've ever attempted to record steel string acoustic, and I'm having a blast with my MSH's! I just wrote a song with the low e dropped to a d, and I'm getting copious fret buzz that normally isn't there. This isn't a huge mystery, of course there's less tension on...

I don't make sample-based music, but i do use fruity loops. I got sick of the drum sounds that come with it and lifted some sounds from records. Not phrases or loops, just, for example, the snare from the intro to a song, one hit, less than a second. Today I got the snare hit from the...

My music is taking a left turn into a folk-bluegrass kind of direction. No sweat, I usually make whatever kind of music I feel like, but I'm having trouble castrating my bass. I've worked hard to dial in a couple of sounds that are real ballsy, sometimes punchy in the lower mids, and that...

Just had to share this, and no I don't work for M-Audio: Sent in a broken bx8a monitor, received it yesterday (a month after sending it) and it was still broken. After being without monitors for a month already, I was pissed. I probably wasn't very pleasant on the phone with them, but after a...

Sent in a broken bx8a monitor about a month back, got it back today. Not fixed. Not even a little. Same exact shit as before. On the phone they seemed as surprised as me to find this the case. They said they'd send out a fedex label so I wouldn't have to pay to ship it out there again...

I researched guitar gear for about a year before I pulled the trigger, which is a lot of planning to do for only $500 worth of stuff. One item I decided on was a fulltone ocd, which, just as I was about to order, went out of stock at my favorite place to order from online, humbuckermusic. I've...

Where do you get cheap 9v wall warts? I'm about to add my third pedal, still not enough to justify something like this, especially since I don't plan to add more, maybe just swap some out. So, one more wall wart for now.
