What good is something that is simutaneously free and shitty?

I agree, except when you can't get the other players to play in time. In nearly every situation I have ever been in, studio recording wise, I have had to struggle with people that play in front of the beat. In order to not go completely insane I wind up speeding up which then causes the goddam...

Dinosaur Jr blows goats. I suppose you think Captain Beefheart is brilliant as well?

Not all foam is created the same. You want open cell foam.

I cannot say enough good things about the CAD drummers headphones. They sound great for iso phones. Not enough isolation for drummers so I use the Shure SE-215 in ears (best $99 I ever spent) and Howard Leight L3 muffs (31dB attenuation). I get about 50 db's of isolation, so much so that I can't...

"First rule of drumming; beat the f@#k out of the drums they always sound better. It will impress the shit out of your friends and more importantly, chicks love it." No they don't. No it doesn't and no they don't. Maybe Greg L should tell his little punk rockers they suck instead of telling...

Not in my experience. 3 NT-1 mics bad from Sweetwater years back. Finally got a "good" one; wasn't what I would call good. Wooly bottom end and peaky top. Gave it to my nephew, couldn't imagine selling it to someone in good conscience. As always YMMV.

Anyone else having issues with Variety of Sound VST plugins crashing Windows? I am using Cubase 7 with the latest updates. Computer is 4ghz 8 core processor with windows 7 pro and writing to an different drive than the application. When I have tried to use the Thrillseeker LA comp or Density...

Most people could not tell you whether the original recording was done at 44.1k, 48k or 96k. Most of the benefits are so insignificant as to be moot. 48k and 32 bit floating point is more than enough for most recording at home. However all your plugins will sound smoother and "more better"...

Buy a powered usb 3.0 hub. It should have it's own power supply to prevent issues with hot unplugging because of bus power. It will be backwards compatable to 2.0 if needed.

I recently had a client give me a Fender Bassman 50 Silverface head. It has a couple of broken pot shafts which are an easy fix but I would like to figure out what circuit I have so I can do a proper diagnostic job on it. I am going to "blackface" it so I want to make sure I get the right parts...

What the fuck did I do to you?

Actually posting from my phone. I don't like greg's posts. I think the conversation is better without his self obsession. Courtesy is universal. Life is actually quite complex, literally and figuratively. Thank you for your support.

Hysterical.

Allow me to express my opinion. I find very little of what greg has to say to be any real value. If I was a dude just starting out then possibly. He's so god damn rude to everyone all the time, so condescending and lacking in humility that I just get tired of seeing his stupid posts everywhere...

I've already explained, in great detail, why I feel the way I do about "producers". I'm not getting into this stupid shit with you again. I couldn't care less if anyone else understands or agrees with me or not. So you are just here to troll and pontificate? Over 23,00 posts in 8 years, that's...

I like GE long black plates or Hammond long smooth grey plates (mullard relabel, I think). Electro Harmonix are also nice with a little grit.

I am a huge fan of Aquarian Studio-X/ Remo Diplomats for toms (nice blend of resonance and overtone control) and Aquarian Focus-X for snare. And Superkick II for kick batter with whatever resonant head you like.

A prime example of "I don't mind when you get what you deserve but I hate it when I get what you deserve." I have and will continue to hate Crapple products , services and philosophy.

I see you got heads so the following is for anyone else looking at new skins: I am a huge fan of Aquarian Studio-X heads. Just the right amount of sustain and attack. Durability is not great but if you play daily, I believe that heads should get switched out every 3 months or so. That equates...
