This is an old school bluesy number I came up with playing around with open G tuning. I've really struggled trying to put get a good guitar tone down, either amped or plug in. Any critiques welcomed. Even though I'm not much of a singer. Thanks in advance for listening...

I got lucky today when the boss told the production guys to clean out the storage closet and made out with some 2ft x 2ft studio foam. About 8 squares total. I need to treat my ceiling however I'm running into a roadblock since my studio is also the guest bedroom and the warden (wife) not only...

I'm looking at getting a new computer for recording. I've been using XP with 3 gig of ram but really want to upgrade since I use a lot of plug-ins when mixing. I've been looking at customing building a computer on Dell & HP sites and in some cases you can get up to 24 MB of RAM. So my question...

I have an Peavey JSX amp and I've been running into a problem. The gain is the same whether it's on 2 or 10. Can anyone give me a clue about the problem. THanks

No matter how I tweak things my guitar tracks lack warmth and sound scratchy on the top end without the sustain and gain I’m looking for. I’m looking for a hard rock sound (VH, Scorpions) and no matter how I tweak the EQ it ends up emphasizing the scratchiness and mud. Sound files are...

I hit something while working and now only one chanel is coming out when monoriting. Can anyone tell me what I hit and how I can get it so audio is coming out both the left and right channels.

I've been doing some guitar recording and everything is coming on desent on the bottom end but I'm not getting enough mids or highs. I have a Genz Benz El Diablo 60-C and have been using a combination or destortion and EQ peddles without the desired results. Thoughts?

I have a chance to get one at a good price ($100.00) for 5 channels. I'll use it for recording drums, if I really need it. Do I need it or is G.A.S. rearing it's ugly head again.

Hey guru's I got a new computer and tried to install my Waves plug-in's on there last night. Everytime it gets to the registration part of the install the computer crashes. Anyone know what causes this? Thanks

I did check to see if someone else posted this before and couldn't find an answer. I've been getting a interuption during my playback, a loud beap. The playback keeps going and is right on time when the beap is over. Any one know what could be causing this? Equipment used Software: Adobe...

Any one got any tips for strengthing the pinking on my left (fret) hand. I've gotten better at using it but it still sort of flops around and isn't as strong as the other fingers.

Anyone know of any synth loops where it is just one note or chord held down for four beats? I don't want anything with fancy runs and stuff.

Potential stupid question I’m getting some white noise interference at times when recording through my firepod to my laptop. I’ve turned off the wireless port, background applications and software and sometimes it still comes through. I’ve been told this is a PC problem, is this true? Would a...

Funny how things change. I was reading through a few old guitar magazines (yes I keep and catalogue them) and I was reading about how Slash was overrated, Mick Mars suck, Eddie is God. Then I pulled out my new issues, Slash is now a guitar god, Mick Mars is revered and Eddie well besides...

Hey folks, I'm buying an American Strat this week and I've been pondering the Maple / Rosewood fret board issue. I've played both and I haven't noticed much of a difference. Just wondered if the other players on this board have a preference and if so is it based on playablity or looks?
