    I can rap, too!

    http://boomp3.com/listen/c0dvn19ty_r/yoshi-rap I spent years writing this one. And by years, I mean I wrote it after setting up the mic in front of my computer. Whattcha think?

    Quality of Firestudio preamps/converters?

    I've been heavily considering saving for a Digi 003R, because it seems to be of very high quality as far as interfaces go and I don't want to save for a FF800. Aso I could make good use of all the software that comes with it, like Reason etc. And I planned on doing the BLA Mod eventually. But...

    Take What I Say With a Grain of Salt

    I'm working on a ballad for you And all these lyrics I have brought back from the dead Won't do me any good Until I have settled on a final resting place For all the unrequited rhymes that I have left astray I'm taking all the time I need To get these frustrated words onto paper As if they...

    Narrowed down my vocal mic choices...

    If I were to mention an artist's vocals and say I'm trying to record something similar, would you guys be able to tell me the best mic for the job? I've narrowed it down to an AT4033, MXL V69, or SM7 The vocals I'm trying to record are similar to Gavin Hayes from Dredg. Here's a sample...

    Recording acoustic bass...Is it worth it?

    Hey all...I hope this is in the right forum. I was debating between this and "Guitars and Basses" Ok, so I decided I want to record an acoustic album. I've realized starting a band around here is hopeless (No musicians, and what little there are all want to play metal). I want to record...

    Porcupine Tree - Trains

    Recorded the guitar a couple days ago and decided to get the vocals done today. I apologize for the few off-key notes I hit, I'm not feeling very "on" today. http://www.lightningmp3.com/live/file.php?id=13608 In case anyone's interested: Guitar: Matched pair of Naiant MSH-2s in XY over the...

    Is this a good list?

    Hey guys. Alright, so I've been pondering on a list of things to get to get me running with a "full band", since I'm tired of recording acoustically. The only thing I've got as far as a good sounding room goes is my walk in closet, which gives me a very nice desirable dry sound. So, I'm not...

    Song I wrote for a girl like 5 mins ago.

    This girl jokingly asked me to write a song for her the other day, and today she told me she was sad and wouldn't open up to me. I figured it was time to write something for her. I'd appreciate if I can get some comments on it tonight as I'll be giving it to her tomorrow. Anything you'd...

    RHCP - Wet Sand

    Not really sure if this belongs here, being that it's a video, but oh well. My brother and I covered Wet Sand by Red Hot Chili Peppers acoustically. https://youtube.com/watch?v=SokSkInr6N8

    False Hope (Acoustic)

    Here's an original I wrote a while back. Just recorded it today, been workin' on it since I got home from school. It still needs tweaking, but I want to hear your guys' opinions on what in particular. Also, vocals suck, 'cause I'm sick. I'll redo them when I'm not...My brother also wants to do...

    Unmixed, unEQued, and uncompressed clip

    Alright, my friend and I are redoing a song we made 2 years ago. I just got done recording the guitar tracks, and I want some crits on how they sound We work over the internet. I just record and send, so I'm leaving all the mixing and everything to him. What I'd really like to know, is, how...

    Plugging in external preamp to US-122

    Are there any line-ins to use an external preamp? I've got 2 XLR inputs along with 2-1/4 ins, and then 2 1/4 "inserts" (Are those line-ins?) If there aren't any, can I plug the external preamp into the built in preamps and just have the gain all the way down on the built in ones? I realize I...

    How long should I wait on my Karma?

    Hey there. I ordered a Karma K-6 the Thursday before last, and I'm wondering how long I should expect to wait before I give them a call. I absolutely hate dealing with this stuff, and using phones in general, so I would like to avoid it if I can. It just seems a little odd to me that it's been...

    Time to annoy you guys with another insulation question.

    I think doing a bit of insulation is the next thing on my list, but I have no idea where to start. I kinda want to turn my walk in closet into a vocal booth but don't want to have to take the clothes out... I was wondering if I can get good acoustics out of my bedroom even with all the things...

    JCM800: Difference between 2203 and 2204

    Is it just wattage? I plan on building a replica-kit of a JCM soon, and I wanted to know all the differences. Is it just that the 04 is 50 watts and the 03 is 100? -Holden

    M-Audio 1814 vs. PreSonus FirePod

    I'm trying to decide between these two...I was set on the FirePod because I want the simultaneous inputs (for drum tracking), but then I realized the 1814 has 8 inputs on the back, and I got to wondering, can those be used simultaneously? I've used Cubase LE before and it seems kinda meh to...
