Thanks for all the suggestions, guys. I'm going to recommend using the Sound Forge + markers option to my friend (and forgo the bloody chimes as well). Cheers. MrPlow

I got this email from a friend, and I figured if anyone knew the solution, it'd be someone on this board. Any suggestions from the Home Recording folks out there? (email pasted below) -------------------------------------- I am wondering if you have an answer to a problem I have. I have been...

Thanks for the recommendations, Peter. I should of clarified that I'm actually looking for headphones with a mic (ie for Internet radio use). I've seen the Sennheiser HMD280 and Beyerdynamic DT290, but both are a bit too bulky and out of my budget as well. Would I be better off getting just...

Thanks for the info guys. Looks like I'll have to go with an XLR headset w/mic... any recommendations in the $75-$150 range?

A quick question for the gurus out there... I recently picked up a mic headset to use for VOIP that is terminated to separate stereo 1/8" mic and speaker connections. Is it possible for me to use an 1/8" to 1/4" TRS adaptor, then a Female 1/8" to Male XLR adaptor such as the one below... and...

Anyone familiar or own one of the guitars made by Rick Kelly? I know he is based out of Carmine Street Guitars in NYC, and has built guitars for and is highly regarded by both Robert Quine (RIP) and Lou Reed (has been using 2 Rick Kelly telecasters on tour for the past several users). What...

Thanks for the informative reply. What I am trying to do is have 2 setups: 1) Bedroom recording, me laying down 1 track at a time into a computer, adding some effects in the box, then doing the final mixdown using a control surface or physical mixer. 2) Portable recording for band...

Hello, can someone help a fellow musician that's new to the Home Recording world? I'm thinking of buying a control surface, specifically the Behringer BCF2000 or the Mackie Control Unit, and have a questions: 1) Is a soundcard w/MIDI required to use a control surface? Right now I am using an...

Carvin Vintage Series and the Alessandro Line may be worth checking out

I own an 83 American Tele (Dan Smith Era I think) with the toploader bridge that I like a lot. If you can find one used I highly recommend it. For something new, I second the American Ash tele. For something unique, ie a very mid-rangey hot "overwound twang" sound, check out a Japanese...

Hi- Does anyone know decent but cheap rehearsal spaces in the DC / No. VA area? Equipped (including drums) would be nice, but not completely necessary. Thanks, Ron

Been looking for semi-hollow body or hollow body recommendations for that late-60s early-70s proto-punk rhythm guitar sound w/occasional controlled feedback squalls. Have seen the Ibanez Artcore recommended, and I like the size (compared to a Gretsch, for example) but is there something a bit...

I admit that my vast experience has primarily been with these two cables in particular, which really are 2 different beasts sonically. Therefore, when doing an A-B comparison between the 2, the difference between the 2 is a lot more noticeable. Granted as well, if you're comparing all the...

Yeah, that's when the wiring for stereo comes in handy... :p

Cables definitely make a pretty noticeable difference in the sound, at least to my ears. For my CS strat and 83 Am tele, I've found lava cables to work the best (reallly fattens and sweetens the tone, smooths out the highs). For my old Kent SG copy, I go with Cobalt cables (makes tone clearer...

Thanks for the tip. Was actually able to find a few sites that had'em now. Should have originally searched for "top hat tip" rather than "pickup selector cap" on google.

Should be an easy find, but can't seem to find what I'm looking for on any parts or auction site. I'm trying to replace the pickup selector knob on my 83 tele with the same Fender part. It is black and in the "rectangular top-hat shape", as opposed to the "round top-hat shape." I've only...

Just wondering if anyone has ever tried/purchased any Guyatone effects pedals and can comment on their experiences with them. Didn't come up with anything useful from the Forum search. Thanks.

The tele will definitely get you a fatter tone, but it will have slightly more of a 'jangle' too it- which can be good or bad depending on your preferences. I have a Walnut body Fender tele that sounds completely different than any of the alder or ash teles; much more midrangey and a very nice...
