    Got my DP32

    Why do I have to export them? The mixdown files work perfect on my pc. That doesn't seem to be the issue. The only thing I want on the PC is the final mix. I don't care about the individual tracks. I'm doing nothing on the pc. It's just the destination for the final mix of the song. It's when I...

    Got my DP32

    OK so first review. First off the learning curve was not too steep owing to the fact that I've been using a DP02 8 track tascam machine for several years. The good. The resulting recordings sound magnificent on the machine. (More later) The basic effects are very good. Delay, compression. I...

    Got my DP32

    Yeah I already found those vids. It appears that the machine has idiosyncrasies. Mostly when it comes to the effects. But it's just an adjustment. It's always a matter of getting my "process" down. One of the good things with this machine is that I won't need to disconnect and connect things...

    Got my DP32

    Went ahead and bought myself a nice Christmas present. DP32SD. World conquest is imminent. Well more like unlikely. But into the breach my brothers! Can't wait to mess with it. Hopefully I can get a day this weekend. I'm switching from a DP02 which I've gotten good results with but I'm feeling...

    Doubling vocals

    I use the doubling effect on a vocal processor. Subtle but very nice.

    New Members: Introduce Yourself Here!

    Hi John Looks like a lot of new people coming in. Your experience is way more that mine. I have about zero experience with any software. MidiGuitar sounds interesting. I wonder how it stacks up to the Electro Harmonix pedals. The "9's" series. Cheers

    Song Structuring..

    Whenever I feel like the verse chorus bridge yadda yadda thing is getting old I just put on someone like Tom Petty and I'm put in my place. That said I've been trying to shatter the mold lately. Someone mentioned just one chord or riff and yeah that is doable. In fact it can be very powerful but...

    Qty of songs you are working on ?

    I usually have 3 in the Queue. That is waiting to be recorded. It's actually almost a cycle for me. I do a bout of recording and then go into writing for a while. I get to about 3 songs and then the "pressure" builds to where I need to record them. I typically don't have half recorded songs. I...

    Guitar Solo Example: Improvisation to planned

    I tend to do that over and over and it takes shape. For sure on occasion you hit on something and want to figure out how to duplicate it. But usually I find that by living with it for some time, soloing over and over the best ideas take shape and most or all of the ones I've stumbled upon stick...

    Behringer, a jem or crap?

    The Guitar pedals are cheap but can sound pretty good. They don't hold up at all though. Mixer and preamp have been great for me. The tube preamp heats up though. Still sounds good though.

    Musicians with full-time jobs..How do you manage everything?

    You have that right! I work 5 days a week and own a home which typically takes up at least one day of my weekend in basic maintenance. That leaves one day a week for other stuff. As great as I feel after a day of recording songs in my little studio it is a monumental task to get myself out from...

    Tascam DP-32D Amp models in Effects

    Well I'm no expert. Eventually I'll stop prefacing everything with that but since I'm new it's a disclaimer. The fact that turning off your effects clears things up suggests something. I have a smaller tascam unit and it doesn't have the Guitar switch. The only suggestion I have is putting a...

    New Members: Introduce Yourself Here!

    Thanks! I'll have to check out reaper. For now I've been fine with just the Tascam unit. But I know that transfering tracks over to a laptop and using DAW would offer a lot. Just a matter of climbing that hill in terms of the learning curve. I'm just glad when I get a day to play in my little...

    New Members: Introduce Yourself Here!

    Hey all Not an expert. Either as a player or at recording. Hobbiest at best. I use Tascam. Actually started out on the cassette ones back in the dark ages. Now I'm on a DP02 (8 tracks not sure why the name) I will upgrade to a DP24 soon. I have no idea how I used to use a 4 track but then Sgt...

    Recording electric guitar directly to a Tascam

    I just put guitar and effects through a Behringer tube preamp and it's all good.
