I used VideoCacheView to download my old video, Roxio to convert to to MPEG-2, then I added the mastered audio to the video and uploaded it to Youtube. It's a pretty close sync... :D

My buddy Mike is a distributor for Focal and he dropped off a pair of these headphones for me to try out tonight. Compared them to my AKG 271's... The Focals are so much clearer and louder than the AKG's. I actually heard some reverb nuances that I hadn't heard before. Not hyped in bass and...

Avid |News Room Guess I now own an Alesis Sputnik Mic. Or is it an AKAI Sputnik?

Friends - MP3 Mix Back again with the latest mix - re-recorded all the guitar tracks today. Eq'd the MP3 a bit to try and make it sound less crappy at such a low bit rate. Does this need any fixes to the mix? Let me know what you think.... Thanks! :D:D:D:D

I was setting up my levels - thanks to rayc - and tried a few different settings. I've played/recorded with the same settings for a long time. Specifically for this thread, I turned the gain on both my preamps to full blast and played a few things. To be honest it was mushy and it sort of lacked...

Amp is ready - picking it up after work. I'll try and post what he did when I get the invoice listing. He did a lot of things trying to recreate the crackle - but I don't think he ever did get it. He did get a hum eventually (wonder what he did to create a hum which wasn't there orignally...

Maybe I'm too relaxed when I'm sitting, maybe my posture is better, cause I find I sing better when I am standing. I know it's usually easier to sit with an acoustic and they sometimes have no strap. Which way do you find easier/better for you?

Interesting Strat Set Up - now I want a cheap Strat to try this on.

SoundClick artist: G and M Project - G and M Project My amp is in the shop so I thought I would mix something instead today. I did a lot of tweaks to the relatively few tracks - stuff like eq and automation. I have a few reservations on the mix but I'd like to hear what others think before I...

Turned on my amp this afternoon and got the familiar "tubes are wearing out" crackling. Went away after a minute of warm up but it's off to the shop soon before it really starts to crap out.... :D

Gibson.com: Gibson Les Paul Traditional 1960 Zebra Played a goldtop satin at Long and McQuade this afternoon. Found a couple of spots where the string choked - up in the 12th fret area. The action was not low so I wonder if it needed a fret job - I was surprised a 1600 guitar would have a...

Keep an eye out for this: jeremiahweed - YouTube

70's Les Paul Black Beauty and 55/74 Les Paul Special Edition. That 8 X 10 cab was pretty sweet too... I bought a mid 70's Les Paul Deluxe Goldtop for $550, which I traded a couple of years later to my guitar teacher for the Les Paul Special. The Les Paul Special was stolen along with a White...

I was looking at a Les Paul Special last night and it looked like a bargain at around $900 CDN all in. then I noticed it had a Baked Maple fretboard. I haven't seen or played one yet. I'm disappointed about the gov't confiscating Gibson's rosewood - but that's a whole other thread. Has...

Remixing this today - focused on mainly on the vocals, but also some eq and redid the lead. Older tune some of you will recognize. With the snowstorm we had on Thursday it's a fitting Xmas in April. Any mix feedback would be greatly appreciated... Edit - Updated agian with latest mix April...

Compression Celine Dion makes sure she gets no compression in her IEM's (read this a while ago). Have you ever sung with compression in your monitors (IEM or speaker) and do you find it good or bad - for you. Do you always sing compressed or uncompressed? Of course soundman for a venue's house...

I'm not sure how to plug in the XLR cable from my mic yet

Doing some microphone comparisons. The vocal clips are unprocessed - nothing except the raw vocal track. Rode NTK and M-Audio Sputnik. Download here until the 27th of March... 45MB so it's a big zip file but it's .wav for quality. https://www.yousendit.com/download/M3BuMWZJNHZTSUFVV01UQw...

Any of you guys/gals have one of these? I'm thinking of picking one up for vocal recording. Wondering... Is it effective in reducing the ambient noise from a room How far away can you position the microphone from the sheild and still be effective Can it hold a condensor without tipping over...

I've been looking around at 60's neck Gibsons, and found the 2011 Les Paul Traditional Pro. Lots of good features which are listed on their site: Gibson USA: Les Paul Traditional Pro Exclusive, Pictures and Tabs, Download Guitar Music and Buy Gibson Electric Guitars Online Good YT review of a...
