I just added a Digimax D8 to my current setup, which is a MOTU Traveler (original version), but now I'm trying to figure out what the deal is with all this sync stuff. It was pretty easy to set it up, but what I noticed is that, when using the D8 as the master, the "Lock" light on the Traveler...

If all I want is to add 8 preamps to my MOTU Traveler, am I really missing out on anything by getting the D8 instead of the FS? I see a lot of sale threads where people are getting rid of D8s because they are upgrading to the FS, but are there people who have had D8s for a while and not had any...

I'm pretty set on getting one of the TC delay pedals, but I'm not really sure which one. -The Repeater is cheaper and has an input for use with an FX loop, but I get the feeling that the Delay can handle being used in an FX loop, too. -The Repeater seems to have more modulation effects...

I really hate mixing in the box. Generally speaking, I set one level for everything and then leave it for the whole song. If, on the other hand, I had faders to play with, I think I would be much more likely to put some actual effort into my mixing. So I'm looking at getting a control surface...

I've been recording drums using the recorderman method and getting pretty decent results, but I'm going to be recording some heavier stuff (metal) in the nearish future, so I want to start miking the toms. So then the question is, do I actually need two overheads if all I really want from them...

Today I was doing some recording with my 57 on the snare and, after two or three good whacks, I noticed that the top part was slightly angled in respect to the body. I ignored it until I was done recording, and it still worked just fine, but I popped the top off afterwards to see if I'd hurt it...

All the recording I've done so far has been for a band I'm in, but this summer, a friend's band wants me to do their demo, so I figured it's a good idea to have some sort of written contract. Are there any good ones I can just mooch from the internet? As for the details of the contract, I was...

Right now, I have my MOTU Traveler and two ART Tube MP Studios. I'm considering how best to expand my inputs on a budget. I'm going to be recording some metal, so I want to see how things go miking the toms on the drums (which is why I need more inputs). Here are a couple of options I've come up...

I'm selling the Digitech Whammy (V4, I think, bought a couple years ago), Boss Digital Delay DD-7, and the Boss NS-2 Noise Suppressor. Details are at the links, but here are summaries: $140 Whammy: Features harmonizing at any interval, an expression pedal to control the harmonies, and MIDI for...

My pedal setup contained all of the following until recently: Vox V847 wah (modded for true bypass) Digitech Whammy BYOC Overdrive 2 (essentially a tube screamer) BYOC Large Beaver (essentially a Big Muff) BYOC Tremolo Digitech DD7 digital delay Rocktron Banshee I picked up a new amp recently...

I've been recording for a while in my little home studio (and also in my school's studio when I was still there). I was looking on Craigslist for something to get me money and I noticed a band looking for a sound guy, no gear necessary (provided by band). I figured I could do that, but I think...

I never really noticed this problem until I ran my guitar into a JCM8000, which really brought out the noise, but there's this weird high-pitched ringing noise that happens when I pick the strings on my The Paul. It's not a microphonic pickup because I can hear it from the guitar itself when...

I am getting a different amp, so I'd like to recover some of the costs by selling my Blues Jr. It's a great little amp in very, very good condition. Here's full details with pictures: http://washingtondc.craigslist.org/nva/msg/1638189347.html Basically, I did the basic set of mods, except for...

And I can't say that it's all that different from the 1 Spot I was using. All the reviews talk about it getting rid of hum, but it doesn't really seem any different. Granted that I don't get any noise until I turn on my OD or fuzz pedal anyway, but yeah. My board looks tidier, though, and I can...

Alright, I'm trading my Blues Jr. for a Vox Night Train, which I like much better, but it still doesn't have more than one channel or an FX loop. Neither of those seem particularly difficult to add, since all I really want is to have the same channel twice--I dig the distortion I get from...

I have a MOTU Traveler, the original one, and Windows 7 always defaults it to 44100 even though the MOTU audio console sets it to 48000. So what that means is the interface is set at 48000 (or at least the light on the front says it is), but Windows thinks it should be at 44100, so I don't get...

Being unemployed has afforded me entirely too much free time, none of which I seem to want to spend doing anything particularly productive, so instead I thought I would try a little experiment. Whenever you try to compare what guitars sound like, you are always running them through an amp or...

I've got a full set of tubes for a Blues Jr., though they're pretty common tubes you could use in a lot of amps (I'd prefer to sell them all at once, though). There are 3 12AX7s (aka ECC83), one of which is balanced and goes in the V3 position on the Blues Jr., and a matched pair (two tubes) of...

Looking for either the combo or just the head, though I think I would prefer the combo (since it's only like $50 more). Obviously, needs to be in good shape and everything should work like it's supposed to.

I've had my Blues Jr. for a little over a year now. Some of you might recall my various threads trying to figure out how to fix my guitar's tone, but what I discovered today is that there's nothing wrong with the guitar (it's a "The Paul"). The problem is that the amp is not giving me the tone I...
