    Using Digital I/O

    yueah i would rather take advantage of the digital technology. I have tried turning off the lights, I live with my family so turning off the AC would leave me mortally wounded. I have thought about balanced cables but they seem so expensive at GC that two cables of decent lenght would be just a...

    Can the POD XT Live be used as an audio interface?

    the idea is that my friend has the POD and doesnt have any good sound card that will receive his signal. So if he can just plug his pod into the comp and setup the software to take signal though the USB via the Pod, then he wont have to buy anything additional to start recording himself. that...

    Can the POD XT Live be used as an audio interface?

    My buddy wants to record his guitar direct with his Pod XT Live pedal board, so I have been looking for a nice USB interface for him so he can just use a 1/4" patch cable between the interface and his pod and be up and running. But he said that his pod has a USB cable, so I was wondering, can...

    Using Digital I/O

    Oh Phew! you got me worried there with the word clock haha. ok so what does affect the signal quality with digital? when does distance becom an issue for the signal strength? what else controls the quality? I am guessing just the converter right?

    Using Digital I/O

    hmmm.... wordclock eh? I am just simply recording live a single stereo track at a time (sometimes dual mono for panning wide).. is a word clock necessary... is it because of some weird lag of digital translation?

    Using Digital I/O

    My keyboard has a Digital Input and a Digital Output(24-bit S/PDIF I/O). I currently am using the L/R 1/4" Jacks into my interface, but I get some gnarly buzz on occasion due to our airconditioning units I think. I was wondering if going digital would cut the interference noise down? If...

    Hardware vs Software Amp Modelers?

    Which do you guys think is more capable of producing good sounds? I mostly work with metal playing dudes and due to outsidenoise/horrible acoustics of the room I work in, micing stuff just isnt cutting it.. I got a chance to use one of the older Pods last weekend and it suprised me but did...

    Direct vs. micing a guitar amp

    In theory however, you cannot argue that an Amp modeler should be the way to go... the half an instrument thing is pretty dead on i think, but think about it, your guitar signal goes into whatever amp, it goes through a variety of circuitry and then it gets blasted out via a diaphragm in the...

    Direct vs. micing a guitar amp

    :p Maybe not yet, but the modelers will have their time soon.. its just a matter of time and technology. Pretty soon amp modelers will sound so authentic that no body will ever go back to micing, it will be like the typewriter.... then guitar will evolve and a whole new generation of sound...

    Direct vs. micing a guitar amp

    Honestly, I think that its just that modelers sound so much better than what we are used to hearing which is why people think they dont sound as good :D In "REALITY" I would say that a modeler is more capable of reproducing what you hear from your real amplifier because when you use a mic...

    Is this a possibility?

    cool thanks, i was also reading in this mixing/mastering book I have that the monitors should be aimed down at your head about 10 degrees... but my monitor manual doesnt say anything about that, so... have you guys heard anything about this 10degrees thing?
