I'll be recording left and right guitar separately with same mic position. Do I need to use the invert phase button on my art tube pac? Do i need to record one side with normal phase, and the other with inverted phase?

I'm looking to get another preamp - maybe joemeek 3q or Studio Projects vtb1. I noticed that the vtb1 doesn't have compression. Would it be wise to go through the vtb1, then out to another Preamp/compressor (art tube pac)? Will this degrade the signal, help it, or not affect it? Or, should i...

I've been looking for something else for vocals. I really like the simplicity of the "mic mechanic". I found out that it doesn't have phantom power, or it has 24 volts instead of 48. Is this even designed for a condenser mic and recording? Is this mainly a device for live performance with a...

If anyone is interested in sampling their kit for me, i'll use it on an upcoming song. Next song will be folk rock/pop maybe. No money offered, I'm not able to. I record lo-fi (hobbyist). I've been listening to some samples, and i'm just not digging the up close/individual sound. If interested...

Hope it's okay to post this here; the section said for things that don't fit anywhere else. Just stumbled on the "save rock and roll" album by fall out boy > https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H10e5YT6QQc I skimmed through it expecting to hear some classic instruments like Kravitz or Sabbath, but...

here's my jambox. manufactured in 98 or 93. CD does work in my 99' chevy silverado. Cd player may be newer; not sure. Next time, i'll just save up and get 300 replicated i guess. I thought i read somewhere that cd's were coming back. I'm really behind the curve. When i have more money, i guess...

Should i worry about people returning cd's from cdbaby that are duplicated cdr's? I understand that these won't work in older cd players, but replicated discs will. I have an old aiwa CA-DW635 jambox that doesn't recognize the cd, but my philips cdr778 recorder does recognize it. Do you think...

I used pc drummer before and my volume levels for each drum pad would save. Now, each time i load pc drummer, all volume levels return to 100. I make sure and hit the set button, and save the song. I'm having to write down the levels, because it does it every time. If you are familiar with pc...

I've heard of people beating on phonebooks, boxes, pans, etc. I usually program with pc drummer with real drum samples. For this song, it's not going to work. I'm hearing lots of hits, and i don't think programming will do it justice. I'm not a drummer, but on this beat, i think there are 12...

I've been choosing analog, because of the stereo red and white inputs. Seems to be my only choice. What's going to be the difference? The digital input is only one jack. It's been sounding okay. I know these questions seem idiotic, so if i'm using analog input, do i still stay out of the red?

This may belong in the newbie section. I'm a dinosaur with recording equipment. I use a tascam dp-01. I just figured out how to export a wave. When exporting a wave, will it automatically be kept under 0 db? I know there is a difference in sound when i load songs on cd. For example, if i have...

I'm way behind the curve with recording. I tend to always come back to tascam. Anyway, i got really comfortable with the eq knobs on my dp-01. I like how i can assign a frequency and play with it during playback. The settings are always there for me to see, without entering a menu. I think i'm...

Story line - some guy hears a woman screaming, he breaks it up, ties guy up, then the woman wants to bury the guy. Fear In His Eyes - YouTube

I don't know how to categorize this, pop, roots, rock? Anyway, i record with a tascam dp-01 and studio projects mic. Creepin In - YouTube

Is it better to use a wave file or an mp3 to make a video? I don't want it (video) to take forever to load. I'm just curious about what most video makers do, and the pros and cons of both (mp3, wave).

I know i'm way behind the curve. Interested in putting up my future songs (maybe some already recorded?) on itunes. I'm going to explore itunes this weekend. I didn't see any obvious links for setting up your own store or whatever. Any help is appreciated. Off to work. THNX :confused:

i bought a used tascam dp-01 (no cable) a little while ago. Is this the cable i need for plugging into computer? > http://www.cnaweb.com/3-usb-2-0-cable-a-b-m-m-clear.aspx If any tascam dp-01 owner's know of any software to use, let me know.

I'm not looking to play drums; i don't have the skills. I'd like to program songs using real drum samples. Does the spd-s have a drum machine section where you can create patterns and chain them together to make a song? If so, can you program different volume levels of the same pad. For example...

I'm about to take the the dive, but i haven't been able to find info on the sequencing part of this unit. Has anyone created patterns on this, and how do you like it?

For the most part i program drums for songs. I've never owned a spd-s, but i'm guessing that i could record the sounds, and then plug in my drum machine to trigger the sounds? I haven't tried this method, but i'd like to try my own sounds with the precision of sequenced patterns. I'm wondering...
