I was at guitar center today, not really wanting to buy anything and I got started talking to this guy (not one of the "salesmen") about budget LDC's... The Rode NT1A came up quite a bit, low self noise, cheap(er) than the other quality mics they had on display, etc... So, I bought one. I...

Hey guys, stupid question coming your way! Hopefully one or two of you has some good info you'd be willing to share... It's going to be long, but I don't want to leave out any "critical" info here. I'm running cubase sl3.0, my interface is a tascam FW-1804, my mics are mxl990 and 991 (yeah...

Okay, so I have got a 1968 epiphone (made in USA) acoustic a couple years ago from a family member who passed it down to me but I never did play it too much due to a major warping of the fretboard. Recently I have been playing on it quite a bit and the sound is incredible if you keep everything...

Please forgive if this is the wrong location to post... I have been toying with the idea of making some new panels to treat my room with, and have been looking into making something similar to sE Electronics Reflexion Filter... All I have right now is 2 panels with a soft side for absorbing...

I am using Cubase SL3.0, and it only came with 20 mp3 conversions. :mad: :confused: :mad: I have noticed that if I export using anything else (other than to the Ogg Vorbis format), I can't put any ID tags on anything that will show the info in a program like windows media player, or in a CD...

Hello to everyone, be prepared for a short series of questions... :o (If I need to relocate this to the Newbie section, just let me know...) Alright, I'm currently using Wavelab Lite (freebie that came with my Emu soundcard), and I guess I like it quite a bit. I do all my recording and mixing...

Okay, so here's the deal. Let me know if I need to move this into the Noob section, I just figured this would be the best place for the topic... :o When I got my Cubase system started last April, I bought a Tascam FW1804 interface. I ALSO got an Emu 1212m and installed them both. Now...

Quick question... I have had mine for a little over a year (got it last April), and have always wondered... At first I just used the preamps built into the unit, but since then I have got a Presonus Eureka (love it) and a behringer (it was free, shut up...) tOOb Ultragain. I have, up until...

I have been doing my fair share of RTFM work on this one, and searching as well, but to no avail... In my Cubase (SL3.0) manual, it mentions Direct X and ASIO drivers. Of the two I have the ASIO driver that was installed when I hooked up my FW1804 activated, because otherwise it will not...

Alright, just to try and keep myself from sounding like an idiot before I ask such a question... I tried to search these forums for over two hours looking for an answer, so please be gentle... :D I'm using a system with the Windows XP media center edition, and running Cubase SL3.0 and...

Alright, this is a question posed to anyone who knows more about these things than I do... ;) I don't own nor have ever used a SansAmp GT-2, but I do own and have used a Tech21 Trademark 300 amp head. I love the different sounds I can get out of it using a 4x12 cab, but not so much using...

I keep hearing and reading about "re-amping". I understand the idea, but not how to do it with my setup. I am using a PODxT (if it's late and I can't crank my amp, in turn pissing off neighbors :D ) going straight into my FW-1804 to Cubase SL3.0. Generally, I record a track and then re-record...

First off, I didn't know where to post this, so if it belongs elsewhere let me know... I am at that point where I would like to build my own tube amp, something along the lines of a Mesa Roadking, with different tube options in one unit and all. Now, I have never built one before, never done...

If you take good care of your mics (condensers), what is a reasonable life span to expect? Just curious cause I recently tossed out a behringer (don't say anything! :rolleyes: :D ) b2pro or something like that bacause the diaphragm sounded like it was tore in two. I got some new mics a while...

Alright... What is the difference between convolution reverb and plain jane reverb plugs? I guess, the proper question would be: I am looking for something that will effect only portions of a track, i.e. the peaks of a track, in the sense that only the highest levels will be affected. I...

I'm looking to get an "all purpose" recording amp, just as a different option to my POD's, to get that genuine "mic'd speaker" sound. Has anyone here tried the Fender Cybertwin? I saw a demo on one at a local guitar shop here, and it sounded friggin awesome. I'm almost convinced just to get...

Alright fella's, here is what's going on... A couple of months ago I bought the MXL mic pack at guitar center that they had on sale (+my little "I hate my job, just take it" discount :D ), I believe the MXL 990/991 recording pak. These are the only two mics I currently own, and I am broke. I...

I am trying to get rid of my Alesis 3630, and my behringer V-amp2... :o Let me know if you'd be interested, send me a PM, and don't worry, I won't tell anyone! :D Let's just put it this way, I don't plan on getting much for these, so just make me an offer... :D

Alright, I have read through the threads I found in my search here, read and printed out ethan winer's site that everyone raves about (which I can definitely understand - great site), and still my question has not been answered... I am planning my next investment - homemade bass traps - and...

Alright, newbie question, but in my defense ( :D ) I'm not a drummer. I practice with a metronome, but I can't make the translation from a 4/4 beat, to a 6/8, etc... Does anyone know what kind of dilemma this is???? :confused: I really enjoy music that is all "off tempo", or different time...
