What are the acoustic guitar track levels before you start playing? Is there a lot of background noise because you play softly and have to boost the preamp gain? I ask because I have recorded acoustic guitar sitting right in front of my workstation computer that sits on the floor under my desk...

Very impressive project and detailed write up.

If you are going to drop 2~3k on a computer, just get a laptop. I bought a new Dell XPS 15 7590 w 16g of ram and 500gb SSD about 4 years ago for about 2k. I used it for a couple of years then decided to max out the ram at 32g and install a 2tb SSD which I installed myself. It's very quiet and...

Before you get in too deep, try unplugging the usb cable to the interface and see if it crashes. I had a problem with my old workstation with my focusrite interface. I had the current drivers and never did figure out the problem, but changing from a usb 3.0 to a usb 2.0 port resolved the issue...

There is no such thing as intellectual property in CN. If one company has the technology, pretty soon they all do. And the best fakes come from the country where the authentic product is manufactured. In the case of CN, I'd not be surprised 90% or more of the bootleg products come from the OE...

Could be, but I think the Dell bios looks at the drive serial number, and if it doesn't match, it won't read it. There was a process I had to use to have it read the new drive. I don't remember the details but it is on Dell's support site.

Could be Rich, when I upgraded my Dell laptop from a 500 G to 2 TB SSD, the Win 10 pro license from Dell does appear to be tied to the hardware (or it could be the drive itself). After mirroring the original 500 G drive and replacing it with the 2 TB, there was a process to have the computer...

The most I have ever had to do is re-enter the license code from my original disc. My Win 10 license is based on my Win 7 pro license, and that didn't cause any problems either. I don't remember having to do it last time. But, keep in mind that I am not doing a operating system install, I'm just...

I record the acoustic or backing guitar tracks first. I can't play to a click very well, so I just fix the guitar tracks timing in the DAW. Then I record the vocals, add the drums and bass (real or the computer). After I'm happy with the composition, I add any other parts, lead, etc. All I try...

Since time is money, what I have been doing for the last 2 or 3 computers, is mirroring the existing hard drive, and then putting that drive in the new computer. I don't have to reinstall anything and it saves time and hassle. The most I have to do is update or install drivers for new hardware...

I don't know him. Maurice has a very distinct voice that I remember from "Raise a Glass" that you posted a few months ago. Ha, ha, yea, I have gotten several comments on my foot stool. I needed something to put my foot on, and that happened to be the right size, and go along with the theme of...

Very good song BTS, it sounds like Maurice Motut was singing.

I just tried entering the data like you did and it worked for me.

It's Christmas Eve, and it's time to get some festive tunes going to enjoy with our eggnog. Post Christmas themed songs that you have done. They don't have to be originals, but extra credit if you have come up with your own Christmas song! I'll start things off with my cover of Robert Earl...

CRS is tough on us old farts.

I like the second version better. The lyrics seem a little clearer.

The title caught my attention also. Probably because I have written a couple of songs about beer myself. It's a cool song. It may be a little fast, but that lends to the groove. I would like to be able to catch all the lyrics though, and slowing it down a little would probably help.

I looked up the Micparts kits and they list a 6072a tube. Are the kits you have with the 12AY7 tubes older kits or a custom modification?

I was using a thin pick for a while and it and my poor technique were causing a lot of noise problems. Maybe you strum harder with a thin pick to get the same sound as a heavier pick? Anyway, a buddy turned me on to Ernie Ball Everlast .60mm picks and it was like night and day. Most pick noise...

Cool song. The intro made me think of the Tubes. I like the sax at about the 2 minute mark, what were you using for that?
