Hi, I'm trying to get my head around setting up my MIDI studio for the first time. I have a Roland U220 synth module and and Axiom 25 Keyboard. I would like to use the Axiom to record MIDI data, playing the sounds from the U220. Could someone please describe the connections? Do I connect...

This. I would always wonder what I might be missing.

Angus' guitar is bigger than he is.

You guys better stop it, now I want one! :spank:

Yeah, I was just coming back to add: "on second thought, no I don't..." :D

I had a Roland Guitar Synth that was built around a LP Studio. I wish I would have kept it.

I've always thought the Studio to be 90% of an LP for half the cost. It's just missing the fancy finish. Maybe I'm mistaken. Hey Rami! New! 12 months no interest! :D...

A real SG is what, $700? Amortize the difference in cost over the 20 years that you will play it. Get a real one.

I would suggest that you go for a Gibson, even if getting a Studio LP and swapping the pickups. The Epis are designed to LOOK like a Gibson, not play like one.

I think it really depends on the material.

I think you'll be happy with an Mbox if you find the right one for PT8, and it has enough inputs for you. I use an Mbox 3 and so far it has performed almost flawlessly.

Funny stuff.

I like tone stacks pretty much, got any of those?

I think I'm going to get one.

That lead tone is awesome, Miner. I ran across this clip of a Matchless Avalon 30 that seems to have pretty good tones. It's their discount model. The good stuff starts around 2:15:

I find most youtube guitar pedal videos pretty worthless, but while surfing last night I found this pleasantly lucid and informed presentation on overdrive / distortion pedals and actually learned quite a bit from it. Worth watching, IMO. Excellent, thanks for the feedback! Did you play...

That's actually very well stated, thanks!

I'm thinking maybe they are more popular for people looking for versatility in covering the bases when playing cover tune gigs, not so much for folks that find a sound and stick with it. That said, amps and guitars have circuits too, if can you boost the signal with care between the too...

This thread is awesome, exactly what I am trying to figure out. So do you think that you might use the pedals less because your amp is more easily self-overdriven? What pedals should I be looking at to put in front of my Vox AC15? I need to beef it up a bit, and I would like to increase the...
