I'm just getting into building some treatment for my bedroom studio. My room has the door located in one corner, making it not really possible to put a panel there. I'm putting 1'x8'x4" mineral wool framed panels stradling the other three corners. I'm building some 2'x4'x4" and 2'x6'x4" panels...

I'm thinking of getting a small glockenspiel for ambient sounds. Any thoughts on brands/models that sound good? Preferably under $200. Thanks.

I'm using Cubase SE and am trying to edit a drum take (my own assy playing) where most of it was ok, but there was one really flubbed fill. I know, RTFM -- and I did read the chapter on editing samples. I did the hitpoint selection and chopped it up -- then I spend about 2 hours manually...

Hey, this isn't the cave... ;)

I have a little Yamaha Telecaster copy that I'm pretty happy with, overall (good setup, look, & feel), but I think the sound could be a little clearer. I'm wanting to replace the stock pickups with something better. I've read a little on here about Fralins, Kinman, and such, but considering they...

Couldn't resist.

So, in testing out my newly acquired ribbon mics (alctron hrm-10 and hrm-15 from the group buy), I'm getting a wierd distortion on the hrm-10 when recording guitar. Someone suggested it might be electrical interference, but I'm not sure. It only occurs when playing, making me think the ribbon...

Not really a "live" event, per se, but a film made by a friend of mine and featuring some of my original music will be making it's big-screen debut at the Carolina Theatre on May 5th, 6th, & 7th. Details below. Be there! http://www.chicks101movie.com/

A couple of months ago, someone posted a link to a great free single-band parametric eq. Does anyone have the link? I can't seem to find it via the search. Thanks.

I've been thinking about getting a new nylon string guitar (my cheap old Yamaha is about to shit the bed, I fear). I played a couple of the La Patrie models today in the music store (La Patrie is made by Godin, who also do Seagull, etc.). I was fairly impressed by their sound in the store. Does...

I'm considering purchasing an entry level kit for practice and recording (mostly acoustic music). I was pretty set on the Catalina Birch kit from Gretsch, but also looked at the Blackhawk EX (with 10" & 12" rack toms and a 14" floor tom). The hardware all looked decent, but the kit wasn't set up...

I'm still in the early stages with this song, but I'm testing out some new equipment, so I thought I would get some opinions about how it sounds. All comments are appreciated. http://www.lightningmp3.com/live/file.php?fid=1179

So, my RNLA arrived yesterday after a brief fit of gearlust to buy yet another thing that I really can't afford. My other compressors are the RNC and a dbx-6 mini-comp, so I can't offer comparisons to expensive compressors/levelling amps. Here are my initial thoughts, though. Appearances - As...

Someone had asked a while back about how to write vocal harmonies. I stumbled across this article last night and thought it gave a very nice explanation of common techniques. It requires a basic knowledge of theory, but I think it is very useful. http://www.alandmoore.com/ramblings/vocalharm.htm

Hey kids, As promised, I've updated the mix of my song, "Better," which I originally posted a couple of months ago. The following things were changed from the previous version: 1) New real drums, courtesy of Voxvendor/Voxxy Brown (he rocks!) 2) An attempt to remove some of the "clicky" pick...

I just picked up a used RE20 off ebay for a decent price and am pretty stoked to try it out. However, it smells like it has had a rough journey through smoke-filled studios and pawn shops. I'm not sure exactly how to get the windscreen off so I can clean it. The EV website isn't much help...

I'm in a parroting mood tonight, so I thought I'd post my own unusual guitar toys poll. I just picked one up and imagine it might have some usefullness, though it will most likely sit on the shelf with all the other toys.

I have one of these multi-effects processors that I used to use a fair amount in my 4-track days, but since I've gone PC, it hardly gets used at all. I really liked some of the reverbs. Google doesn't have much about this box, so I thought I'd check here for other's experiences. It looks kind...

Hey folks. I need a critique of a rough mix of my new recording, "Better." A friend has asked to put this song in an independent film, so I want it to sound somewhat decent. Feel free to tell me what you liked, what sucked, and what needs to be fixed. Now is your chance to get me back if I...
