Hey guys, I've got a micing technique question for you all.... I've recorded a bunch of Guitar/amp clips by placing a SM57 and an e609 (original / black face) on seporate speakers of a 4X12 Guitar cab. When I recorded them I recorded each mic to a seporate channel (at least I think that's what...

I'm using CEP, and I've been having some difficulty with the quality of the recordings when I mix/burn them down to a CD. I've recorded just some clips of guitars/amps, and they sound fine ( objectively :) ) in their uploaded form on SoundClick, but when I burn them to a CD, they sound a bit...

Hey guys... Well I finally got my Delta 1010 off of the injured reserve list, so I thought I'd record some of my different amps just to see and test how they sounded and recorded. These clips are all just the guitar straight into the amp with no post processing what so ever. I did use some of...

Hey guys,.. I was wondering if anyone knew where I could download some backing tracks in different styles so that I could demo some leads (Different amps and amp tones/sounds ) over the top of them? Mostly looking for Blues and Hard Rock. Thanks, Rick

Anybody know where there are any online vids of guys sweep picking??? (Instructional or otherwise) What sparked my interest is the other night on VH-1 I think, durring the VMA's (Again, I think as I was surfin' :) ) They were interviewing a band before they were going on (or coming off??) and...

Hey guys, I just came across this 1961 reel to reel w/ external amplifier-speaker (Stereo Twin 168) I've been searching the web for some info on it, but I've only found one site that has anything on it..... Anyone here have any info or experience with one of these??? Here's a link to a...

Hey guys, I've noticed that my Wharfedale 8.2s'a have been "Humming" for a while after I start my PC up, and then it goes away after a while. Well now they seem to be humming all the time, but I'm not sure it's in the speaker or in the Hardware/software/PC..?? Any suggestions??? When I unplug...

I've just got my home studio off of the ground and I recorded some guitar clips last weekend which turned out pretty nice I thought, but I'd like to add a Room mic to the mix and I'm not sure about phase issues or any other issues I may not be aware of... For my initial tracks I was using a...

Hey guys, I was looking for a source to purchase a "quality" DB25 cable for my Delta 1010. The one that came with it is only about 5ft. long, and I see they offer a 10ft. one that has been tested, and does not degrade the sound in any way. Tech support also told me that I could run up to a 25ft...

Well I finally got my "Studio" off of the ground!!! (It's been like 3 years!!) I recorded some short clips of just my guitar and amp with no processing (Delay, EQ'ing, panning....nothing..) I was wondering if you all could take a quick listen and see if I did an OK job on the levels and what...

Well some of you may know that I've been hanging out around here for a few years now. I've been longing to have a "Home Studio", and after lots and lots of reading, research, and money.....it's finally up and running. I decided as one of my first small projects to sort of get my feet wet I'd...

Hi, I am currently using CEP 2.0 and was wondering if there were any sites out there that offered free effects (Are these what is considered plugins? ) I am perticularly looking for one that will provide harmony tracks to my single vocal lines......is there anything like that? I guess I would...

Hey guys, I've finally got my "studio" set up and was running through some basic vocal track test. My signal chain is this: Mic, pre, Delta 1010, CEP 2.0. I'm just starting out so I'm really in the dark here....:o I was able to record the vocal test track, then I got lost in the effects...

I've just about got everything set up for my studio......I finally got my monitors (Wharfe's 8.2a's :) ), but I just started thinking about when I track and the whole headphone application thing..... I would like to use headphones for tracking, and I've got a decent pair of AKG's, but where do...

At the risk of getting flamed into oblivion, I've got a rather newbi'ish question in regards to cables.... I've just got my monitors and am in the process of hooking everything up. I made up some speaker cables using switch craft 1/4" jacks and some good speaker cable that I had from another...

I've got an out door gig this weekend and it's supposed to be around 90 deg. and sunny. The last time I played an outdoor gig it was around 96 deg. out, and I had a heck of a time keeping my guitars in tune due to the heat/expansion factor and the limited fine tuning available with the Floyd...

Well, I've still not received my Warfedale 8.2a's that I ordered over a month ago. Going in I was aware that there may be some delay in receiving them, and I'm still hoping that everything will work out with that deal. In the mean time I feel that I should be smart and get a "plan B"...

I've been looking at heads for this cheapO' kit that I've got, and while I'm not a drummer I'd still like to get some thing decent for when guys come over and use it. I keep hearing that you want to use different heads for recording than you would for a live performance. Is this correct? If so...

I've searched for some info on this here, but I've not found any good answers.... I see that there are about 4 or 5 different versions of this mic out there, and was wondering what some of the differences were between the lot of them. Some that I've seen/heard/read about hear are: III, IV, V...

I've got 2 sm57's that are broken, one doesn't work at all, and the other on the top came off and it doesn't sound quite right as well. Can a private individual send a mic in to have it repaired, or do you have to go througha dealer. I thought I heard some where that they would redo them for...
