so im a geek too. Hey Brian, I agree with ya. I planned out my house in the Unreal Editor in order to determine where I was gonna put the furniture when i moved in.. lol. So I like the idea of using a game level to design a studio. You can do just about anything with those things. Of...

lol, I thought I WAS being tactful by the comments I made. Since you didn't get that, I'll be blunt. I wanted to ask you to tell us why the little baby is crying, boo hoo hoo. Instead I resisted and thought I would make a joke and let you just get over what appears to be your unfounded...

You sound like you have some deeply ingrained resentment... tell me about your parents.

While building a computer is easy if you know all the ins and outs and very fun when it goes smooth, it can be very frustrating at times when things don't work out right. If you decide to give it a shot, since you aren't sure about the case, I would do like Emeric mentioned and spent an extra...

I think you have the right idea about the memory and the hard drive (256MB and 7200 RPM.) You could upgrade the motherboard, CPU, hard drive, and memory fairly cheap and really increase the overall performance with what you are doing. Is the current motherboard standard ATX and will the Dell...

maybe not a 9mm, but... Well, mine took a beating from me throwing them hard as I could into the wall... then stomping them once or twice for good measure. You know, they were making me mess up on a guitar part for about the 50th straight take, so they had to feel the pain. :D Anyway, a...

There's lot of software available that can do basic audio/video editing of video tapes. I'm not familiar with most of it, but you will most likely need to get an interface to the camcorder that can also output back to tape. Maybe someone that has one of those all-inclusive interfaces can post...

I tend to agree with that... Even when there's more than one guitarist in the band, they both should just be "guitarist". Separating it out like that a lot of times is a function of ego more than anything that actually helps the band.

If that new PC you are getting has a CD burner, it might come with all the software you need to do this. Adaptec Easy CD Creator has a program built into it for recording old LPs and cleaning them up a little to be put on CD. Not that it's the best thing out there I'm sure, but it does the...

Check your sound card settings to see if you can specify what is being recorded. As in, "line in" or "what you hear" or whatever. Set it to just the line or mic input you are recording the new tracks from, or the specific input on the soundcard if you have a multi-input recording card. BTW...

SB Live is a very good sound card for the money. All the Delta cards I've used are great, I have a 1010, and they shouldn't even be compared to the SB Live cards for recording. Not even the same league. From my experience with both of my Live cards, the analog inputs and outputs are...

Bruce... Did you not read my whole sentence? :D I was talking about the POD not being really an effects procesor.

First, what software or application are you using to record? Second, what soundcard do you have? If you have any of the SoundBlaster Live cards, there's an option in the mixer control panel that selects what you record.... if it's set to what you hear, then it'll pick up what WinAmp is playing...

I still tend to say stay away from the AMDs if you are going to use the machine for recording, even if the newer AMDs seem to be better in capatibility than they used to be. Maxtor hard drives are also good in addition to the IBMs, and whatever you get make sure it's at least 7200 RPM. I also...

For software, look into stuff like Sonic Foundry Acid if you want to work with loops, and check out n-track for a downloadable multitracker. www.sonicfoundry.com www.ntrack.com

I agree that it sounds like something with the guitar, and I had the ground come loose in my Strat a while back and it gave similar problems. Although, if what you mean by grabbing the hub of the 1/4" is that you don't even have the guitar plugged in at that point, then maybe it's not the...

Not that it's actually an effects processor, but depending on what purposes you had in mind, a POD might do well.

You can get an adapter that has a 1/8" plug for coming out the soundcard, and then splits to two 1/4" jacks for running cables to your monitors. Not the best, but works good enough for me. Just get good cables. I got my adapter and cables at Mars actually, so I know they carry all kinds of...

The .SFK files are wave peak files in Vegas, so I'm betting they are the same thing in other Sonic Foundry products as well. They allow opening up of existing wav files faster after they first time, when these files are generated. Essentially that's about all they do. I don't know if there's...

I just read something on the Yamaha QY100... and it does run on batteries. Here's a Yamaha link with some info specifically on it: http://www.yamahasynth.com/pro/qy100/index.html As for the output question, you can do just about everything you mentioned with any of these devices. Plug in...
