I have a small home studio and sometimes other musicians come in to record their demos in my studio. Recently I had some people that came in to the studio and they all told me that I shouldn't smoke in the studio because cigarette smoke affects the speakers of the monitors in the long run. I...

Ok, I don't know what is going on or what I pressed accidentally but I now can't hear my soundfonts!!! I'll load a SF into a midi track, I'll select the IN to be MIDI OMNI, the out is the 3-A: SB Live! Midi Synth, the Channel is a Sound FOnt Device Channel, and I select the Bank the I loaded...

Shure PG Drum MIC package. I was browsing an online musical equipment site and I stumbled upon a mic package from SHURE that contains 6 mics for picking up drums. Specifically one PG 52, three PG 56's and 2 PG 81's. Any of you guys have any info or feedback on these microphones?! The price...

Ok, I have a question that might seem a little bit complex but I'm just hoping to be able to do what I have in mind. Ever since I upgraded my home studio from a cassette 4-Track recorded to a Computer Based DAW with SONAR I've considered myself blessed and have found that any idea that I have...

Here's a pic of my studio here in Costa Rica while I was drinking a glass of wine ;) Carlos

Care to share what each one of you have inside your bag of tricks?!! Every guitar player, in the never-ending learning process comes across some "cool tricks" be it, learning to do two hand tapping, sweep picking, some weird scale that sounds awesome or whatever. Why don't we share some...

I need a .wav or .mp3 or any other format of audio with just a huge stadium cheering.... any idea where to get it other than going to a stadium and recording it??!! Thanks Carlos

I'm getting ready to record a "real" drum track. I borrowed a nice Pearl Export series set and set it up nicely for what I intend to record (latin rock a la Soda Stereo, Santana...) I have a few nice cymbals that I borrowed as well. Anyways, here's my question, I need to go out and get some...

Well, I've been playing the guitar for about 15 years now, and the electric for a little over 10. Ever since I started to play the guitar, the idea was to emulate the style, chords, notes, solos, leads and wardrobe of my favorite guitar players; at the time, these players were Randy Rhoads, CC...

I am very close to getting the Aardvark Direct Pro Q10 but before I do, I want to make sure that it is the BEST way to go. I want to be able to record 8 tracks simultaneously of XLR and/or 1/4" and want to have the very BEST interface. I have been juggling the idea of getting either the Q10 or...

Hello again everybody, I recorded this track a few days ago and was very happy with the way it started to sound on my new monitors (Roland DS-90A's); anyhow, the bass (all 3 of them) sounded very nice and fat and the percussive sounds sounded where they should but once I mixed it and heard it on...

My midi tracks once recorded sometimes decide to "autoquantize" to anything BUT what they were originally intended to sound like. What could be causing this?! I use a PIV 1.6GHZ 512 MB of RAM Win 2000 Sonar Roland MGS-64 Midi Sound Module SB Platinum Live sound card Thanks, Carlos

I'm looking for a good downloadable spectrum analyzer (freeware) to use with Sonar. Any pointers?! Thanks, Carlos

I have a 1.6 GHZ PIV with 512MB RAM, 2 40GB HD at 7200 and record with Sonar. I'm using the SB Live Platinum 5.1 (duck for tomatoes... I know). Here's my question, maybe the answer to it is very simple but here it is anyhow. Let's say I want to record some acoustic drums into my Computer. I...

Hi, I have a doubt and need to know how to do something. I want t create an effect by at between two points in a project that I'm working on, some instruments are panned, rhythmically, from side to side and don't know how to record these panning alterarions to the tracks. I'm sure that the...
