    Steve Vai..Flexable

    >>>>>>So for someone to sit there and say Vai did it so stop being gear snobs, is pretty bullshit. That's like saying "hey, I'm the king of the local hoops court..." and then never going to the next level. And then go talking shit at the local sports bar.<<<<<<<<< Ya, but the reality is that...

    Gear??

    Well, for starters, I commend those of you who appreciate the gear the Beatles used, but the fact remains that some people here have put the stuff down and pretend that if you aint using a Neve console, your music will suck.

    MACKIE 1402 Question(s)

    I went to two different dealers today, and both said that the Mackie 1402 or the 1202 do not have channell inserts. You have to get the 1604 for the channell inserts. This is what they told me, then the Bheringer for it's price range became more appealing. Doesnt the Bheringer sound good? is...

    MACKIE 1402 Question(s)

    Well, y'know, the Mackie has no inserts..I'm sure that makes it useless to a lot of people. I need the effects in there. Bheringer is willing to give you pretty much a note for note replication of a Mackie. but a Mackie is probaby more rugged. But for a savings of a few hundred bucks, who isnt...

    Insert effects and PLUG-IN DELAY

    No, just the DYNAMICS can't be used on VST instruments, without putting them out of sync. You can use dynamics on the master with no problems, but id all you want ot do is use them ona VST instrument channel, your screwed...it won't work. Its the read ahead function within the effect that...

    What style of music is this? AND is this mix finished?

    Well, you asked a two part question so here goes. 1> Upon listening to this a few times, I'd call it metal for the most part. 2> The vocals were the only thing I felt were fighting the mix to be heard a little. I don't know if it's because they weren't mixed loud enough, or if it's the...

    Hey there, I'm using CUbase 5, I have the drum module LM-4 too... what I want to do is apply compression to the snare drum.I guess I must use it as an insert effect, but when I turn it on, the snare goes slightly out of time with the rest of the music. When I turn it off it's normal, even...
