    Guitar centre moves well right of centre.

    Interesting thread topic. Had no idea GC was so f-ed up. It does make sense……. The other day a friend told me about a yellow Van Halen Charvel at my local GC. When I got there it was hanging on the wall. The maple neck was absolute filthy, I’m not talking normal grime, but more like someone...

    Blind test about digital and analog guitar tones for you guys to do

    Microslav I just ran from the headphone out of my laptop direct into the Meyers with an adaptor. If you have self powered speakers in your control room just try going direct from a laptop. The blind test is kinda fun, lol

    Blind test about digital and analog guitar tones for you guys to do

    No doubt pretty goofey. If you gonna do any serious recording the stand alone editor is kinda a must have; best part is its a free software interface. There's also a 11R user's group website, plenty of rigs on it, some good, some bad, some excellent. I put together a group of popular types of...

    Blind test about digital and analog guitar tones for you guys to do

    Yes, it actually very clean for the money. To really unleash its flexibility and power, it works best using the “Stand alone editor”

    Blind test about digital and analog guitar tones for you guys to do

    Spend a couple of days with an Eleven rack, for an inexpensive hardware unit, it does it all.

    Blind test about digital and analog guitar tones for you guys to do

    To me it seems that too many dismiss the idea of recording with sims without giving them a fair shot. A friend of mine has the Axe-Fx Ultra in his studio and it collects dust; yet when I bring my Eleven rack & laptop combo he freaks out over it. I'm pretty sure that if I owned his Axe unit, I'd...

    Blind test about digital and analog guitar tones for you guys to do

    I did the test in a friend’s studio listening thru his Meyer HD1’s, which are pretty serious studio monitors. My test score was 23/36, but in my defense I typically record with both Tube Amps & Sims, so that might have also been a contributing factor. When playing thru a tube amp in person...

    Blind test about digital and analog guitar tones for you guys to do

    Its kind of like sometimes you can't even hear the difference and other times it doesn't matter once its recorded and in the mix. lol

    Blind test about digital and analog guitar tones for you guys to do

    Its pretty cool that you took the time to make the blind test. Seems like the people that "cry" the most, are typically the same guys that rail against all types of sims. My guess, maybe the realize that they're not that easy to tell them apart from real amps once the guitar parts are recorded...

    Living room studio

    What are your living room dimensions? How wide is the furniture, TV Stand, ect…..? You might be able to lay it all out in a way that could actually work. Put some numbers up.

    Which room to choose?

    Room #2 would be my choice. Here's some quick ideas that might help. Super chunks in front corners. Door on the side not bad, angled back side wall could be copied to the opposite side with sheetrock, making symmetry easier. The cubby area would be nice for deep rear wall trap. Run room...

    My latest mix on low end gear

    Just listened to a few of your tunes on youtube, they all sound fine, actually good enough to give an accurate example of your song writing styles and performance value to any A&R department. Keep writing & recording your tunes, the more that better, build up your available "publishing"...

    Is it better to track a vocal dry or with a little wet effect?

    Yeah, just put some delay or reverb in the singer's "cans" and cut the track clean; you'll be glad ya did.

    Help with deciding where to put treatment???

    I understand the issue with the cat’s window, was just trying to offer you pretty much your best and very possibly the only real decent acoustical option you’ve got for that particular room you’re working in right now. We have two cats here, but they’re pretty much totally forbidden in my...

    Help with deciding where to put treatment???

    Miner Was looking at your room and had a few ideas you can consider. Moving the desk over towards the window side of the room might help in a few ways. Since the room is small, low frequencies should be a problem with mixes, but the opposite end of the room does have the closet and entry door...
