I have a DVD player on my rack for the purpose of listening to CDs. It cost me a little over $100 but I thought it would do. I could pay 5 times that much for a CD player. Am I going to hear the difference? I have been told as much, just wanted to ask the question here :)

Do I want one or need one? How important is this piece of equipment? I have an opportunity to get one. I know of them by reputation but is it going to make that much of a difference considering reverb and chorus effects are built in to most oif the gear I have, including the Peavey XR1212...

I have a Focusrite Saffire PRO 24 DSP connected to a pair of Yamaha HS80M active monitors. There is a faint but distinct high-pitch digital noise that is sometimes stopped by certain mouse activity or disk activity among others. It doesn't get into the recordings and is not a problem, just an...

Our vocalist has a powerful voice that sometimes comes out a bit strong. The obvious gear solution is a compressor of course. Now I know what I would like to get if money was no object. Recent purchases have dried up the coffers somewhat and I am not sure I could justify a compressor costing...

This is a lady who is a trained musician in piano, brass and bass but never sings outside of the shower. She wanted to try my mixing on this song and was happy with the results. Thought I would share it with you The Night The Lights Went Out In Georgia

Just spent three days on this cover of America's "Daisy Jane" (Beckley 1975) There's a vocal harmony that I enjoyed doing but most of the backing was synthed from various sources. Any suggestions on how it could be made better would be very much appreciated. Daisy Jane -AL

This is my recording of the Jon English song, Six Ribbons (1979) I recorded this on a classical guitar which I no longer own, so modifications will be a bit tough, lol The background singer is my girlfriend who also helped with the arrangement of the song Six Ribbons

The well-known America song, Horse With No Name was the first song I recorded on a new 12-string guitar that was given to me as a present a few years ago. The rhythm guitar and lead guitar solo are both 12-string guitar. I used to think it was one of my best recordings but learning from you...

I couldn't believe the improvement in sound quality when I made the small change of pointing my monitor speakers (DB Technologies L160) towards me. They were in the right place, the right location but neatly parallel to the back wall. While reading a manual on another speaker brand, the Adam...

I read the comments on the first attempt with this song and replaced the guitar completely. I picked up an AKG P170 condenser mic for this one. The previous recording used an AKG D7 dynamic mic, which was nice but the P170 might just pick up just a little more detail. Kiss Me

No not me, its the name of the song. The first time I posted here I was embarrassed about what I didnt know. Have studied up and started a new student band at the same time. Ditched the old M-Audio soundcard for a Focusrite Saffire PRO 24 DSP and hopefully know a little bit more now. This is...

This is a very humbling experience, posting your own work amongst talent so hot that you get suntanned from it. But I would like some opinions from expert ears on the level I have attained thus far. This recording is an original by my 16yo student who sings and plays all the instruments in this...
