Chances are everyone on the site has equipment way better than any of this stuff, and many of you will laugh at some of this stuff, but... still, i have to ask around to get rid of this stuff to make an upgrade to an AxeFx Ultra. $40 -An anonymous steel snare drum that would be brutal with new...

So I have finally bought 2 Studio Project B1s to mic my kit with using the recorderman method. I'm setting them up right now (its 1:34 a.m so it's rough not being able to test it out now :eek: ) Ive only got two boom stands and a desktop mic stand the booms I'm using with the B1s and Im actually...

is it like a pre-amp or a mixer in that it's essential, or is it like a chorus pedal- it's very useful if you have it, but no one absolutely NEEDs it ? I was looking and found this Alesis 3630 for $100. But I dont know what I would use for, I was hoping someone could help me figure out its...

Hello again Home Recording it's been a while since I've logged in (school started again) and I've missed this place. Now that I'm back I have a question on n00b level: I have a guitar that's nut has cracked off from the low E string. This is the guitar...

When I sing I seem to get winded whenever I try to sustain something or... Ah I won't bore you all with the back-round story, here's the main point of this thread- I need to learn some sort of breath control technique or something. Can anyone help me out? Tips, videos, articles, lungs, perhaps...

I'm hopefully getting a room added on to my house to use as a studio... Sheetrock or Panels? Is one better, or do they both suck?

The thing @ 6:34 with the red light on top of the amp? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Ev3dKqXSzY&feature=related

How in the hell do all these random people on MySpace mass add/comment/event invite and message?!?! Do they actually PAY to be able to send tons of adds to people who really dont care just to increase their number of friends? Any comments on how they do it?

I posted a song here a while back, I received some feedback on everything which I really appreciated. I've just now realized though, that I should've posted the lyrics then so they could've been seen as well... so i'll post them now, I'd love to hear all feedback. ----------------- "The...

how much I can do with a Tascam DP008. I've got it, and I know how to use it. However, whenever I'm reading homerecording tips and such everything is based on an interface/computer system- the use of signal processors and such things. Is it basically impossible for me to use outboard equipment...

(Not sure where to post this so I'll do it here :o) I've always been interested in and curious as to how exactly people become session musicians. I mean, I know what a session musician is and how they work for the most part - one has to be recommended by studio owners, producers, etc. but what...

:o The thread where dodgeaspen asks what CDs we think sound horrible inspired me to ask what CDs you all love the sound of. I hope there hasn't already been a thread like this, and I also hope this is the right place to post this. For me, my top 3 are: Dirt- Alice in Chains Master of Puppets-...

I'm on my cellphone so I don't know how well thisll work out but anyway, I'm aware the different tube "models" make a difference in tone but do different brands make a difference. Meaning if I get different brands of el34's will the tone change or no? Sorry for the annoyance and the probable...

I live in a town with no music store. I have to drive for hours to find one, so most of my gear is purchased online. I've always wondered about the unknowns in the amp world. I know about the more standard amps that can be found online: marshalls, mesas, orange, peavey, etc. I was wondering if...

I've noticed the typical recording pattern is a scratch track of guitar then drums then guitar again then bass then vox. I've wondered why people dont just record the actual guitar parts firsts (not leads obviously) and insted record a scratch track then do the actual guitar parts after they do...

Snare buzz. I've followed a few threads. And have done some more research, some people say roll up toilet paper and put between the snare strand and head, some people say get a Puresound Equalizer snare it'll take care of it. Do those things help? Do different snare drums buzz more than others...

I was wondering how exactly I should set up a preamp. It's a ART Tube MP Studio Mic Preamp. I use it for vox, a DI for electric bass, as well as for the mic on the guitar cab, and I've never thought about asking until now, but how should I set up the levels and stuff? Should the input be set...

I'm looking for mics that I can use mainly for drum overheads; but also on vox, acoustics, bass, guitar cabs if I ever need to... pretty much your typical bedroom studio multi-purpose mic. I've narrowed it down to the Audio-Technica AT2020 and the Studio Projects B1 based on recommendations from...

Hi, I'm recording some stuff in the spare bedroom in my house. The room is full of stuff- my equipment, as well as furniture and stuff. It's also not very big. What I've been doing so far is recording straight through the built in condensers on my Tascam DP-008 here's a rough mix that gives...

Can you all give me some recommendations. Some scales/ tips/ exercises? Here's a link to my original post: https://homerecording.com/bbs/showthread.php?t=305569 It explains everything better. :)
