    The best of 6 options, to get me recording ASAP?

    At the Musician's Friend web site, I clicked "Recording" then "4 to 12-Track Digital Workstations," which produced 13 results...6 of them being all-in-one recording packages. For somebody with zilch for experience, and getting antsy to record (computer setup or not), which of the all-in-one...

    Core Duo Mac mini & Logic Pro 7?

    From the system requirements I saw at Apple's web site, it seems to me that Logic Pro 7 would run on a Core Duo Mac mini. Or should I hold out for a 20" iMac with a faster Core Duo processor? Matt in Indiana

    Possible Squier Fat Telecaster PU upgrades?

    Just a thought, for now, and I've actually got the proposed pups in my Musician's Friend wish list, in case I actually go with this train of thought. I'm thinking about a Seymour Duncan Invader neck humbucker/Seymour Duncan Cool Rail split rail bridge humbucker combination. Matt in Indiana

    Which Ernie Balls for Ibanez Jet King 2?

    Okay, I fell in love with Ernie Ball strings, when I put a set of Hybrid Slinkys on a Synsonics portable electric (the one with the 9V battery powered built-in 2" speaker in the body), and they really made that axe come alive when played through (of all things) a 10W Realistic combo that I also...

    Telecaster 4-way switch?

    Just bought me a new Fender Standard Telecaster (brown sunburst color), this month, and was wondering if going to a 4-way selector switch would be a worth while upgrade? Not sure if I'll upgrade the pickups right away, but I'll be going with a Fender Custom Shop Hot Rod (flames) bridge and...

    Logic Express vs. Soundtrack Pro?

    Which of these two is the better entry level application, for somebody that's planning to buy a 20" iMac G5 at some point this year? If I had my druthers, I'd be going for an iMac G5 and Logic Pro, but I'll be taking a huge leap going for the iMac G5 and I'm still collecting guitars/effects, and...

    Which baritone?

    I hope I haven't asked this before, but I'm looking to add a baritone to my collection, either this month or in February. The ones I'm considering, and fit within my price range, include: 1) Danelectro 2) Epiphone Les Paul Standard 3) Gretsch Jet 4) Italia D-Man Right now, I'm seriously...

    Suitable Epiphone Texan replacement?

    I've mentioned in a couple of threads, here and there, about my Epiphone Texan and Kamen Montana 12-string having been stolen, back in 1998, in a break-in over Thanksgiving weekend. I've been told that an Epiphone AJ-200 is every bit as good as a Texan...basically the same as the Texan, but...

    Speaking of copyrights...

    ...would I do good to record my various, still in development songs, and register what I've already created, until I'm actually able to record my first album of complete songs? I got to wondering about this, as I was replying to one of the copyright threads in the Marketing/Publicity forum. Or...

    Cab. for Guitar POD 2.0?

    What would be a good cabinet to run my Line 6 Guitar POD 2.0 through, so I don't always have to use headphones when I play? Would mic'ing such a setup work better than recording directly to my computer? Matt

    Buying an Epiphone EB-3?

    A Froogle search turned up 4 online sources, that carry the long scale (34") Epiphone EB-3 bass: guitarbargins.com; boxymusic.com; music123.com; shop-nation.com. Which one of these 4 would be the best, as far as possibly ordering the EB-3 bass? Or should I take the time to drive the 2 hours, up...

    Emulating a clavioline?

    Okay, first off, if you're wondering "what's a clavioline?" listen to "Telstar" and "Jungle Fever" by The Tornadoes, or "Runaway" by Del Shannon...that's a clavioline. I've been trying to figure out, as I gear up toward home recording sometime this summer/fall, how to emulate a clavioline. It...

    Why no digidesign forum?

    Why isn't there any digidesign forum, under User Forums by Brand? I'm thinking about getting an Mbox factory bundle, sometime this summer, and it'd be nice to discuss using digidesign products, with other digidesign users, here at HomeRecording.com BBS.

    Cubase VST 4.5?

    How useable would this one be for me, until I'm able to either upgrade to the latest Cubase version, or maybe get a digidesign M-box? I'll have to replace my beige Power Mac G3 minitower that this was installed on, and will likely install it on the replacement, but until I replace the Mac, I'll...

    Johnson "Telecasters?"

    Does anyone here have any practical experience with these...the Johnson Tele-style JT-800? Otherwise, I'll go with a Squier Telecaster, or hold out for a Fender US Special Highway One Telecaster.

    WMG Indianapolis

    Does anybody have a link to their site? I had it bookmarked, at one time, but I think that was on my Mac that's currently dead. So far, trying to google it is turning up everything BUT what I'm looking for (sigh).

    Squier Bullet Special w/Symour Duncan SH-8 Invader?

    I probably already know the answer to this, but how close to a Tom DeLonge Strat sound could I get, by putting a Seymour Duncan SH-8 Invader pickup into a Squier Bullet Special? Or would it just sound like a Squier Bullet Special that's got a Seymour Duncan SH-8 Invader pickup in it? I wish...

    Need pick suggestion, please.

    I'm trying to find a particular type of pick, and I don't care who makes it, so long as it fits what I want in a pick. I really like the control I have with Fender's thin jazz picks, but I'd prefer something thinner than that, like the .36 and .38 Dunlop picks that I'm currently using. Who makes...

    Ernie Ball strings for Ibanez AG75?

    Which "flavor" of Ernie Ball strings would be best for the Ibanez AG75 (semi-hollow w/trapeeze tail piece)? I'm guessing that any set with a .10 high E (or smaller) would be too light, and introduce a tinny sound that I wouldn't want with humbuckers. Overall, I'm going for that "big phat"...
