    Please Help! I have the FAKEST recorded guitar tone EVER

    I will try to take your advice and also try to post a clip. I do honestly truly understand about how hard it is to diagnose over the internet. I am just new to this whole thing and it may take me days to figure out how to hook this thing up correctly to a computer. I have been playing guitar...

    Please Help! I have the FAKEST recorded guitar tone EVER

    The only way I can post a clip is if I completely master the song and then burn it to disc then upload it. My recorder won't let me do it any other way. I don't really want to go through all of that right now Eric

    Boss DR 660 to Alesis DM5 via midi?

    I have been using a Boss dr 660 due to it's ease of use and was wondering if I can (and how hard is it really) use the 660 to trigger the Alesis DM5. The drum tones on the DM5 are, from what I understand, MUCH better than what I am using. I am very sorry to all of you REAL drummers, but I...

    Bad SM57????

    Doubling doesn't help either. It only sounds more fake. I tried another mic (my vocal condenser) just now too and it still does it. What the crap? Eric

    Bad SM57????

    Well, I bought this used at a music store for $30. I have been checking out some of your suggestions. I am running this directly into my Tascam 2488. Here is what I have found. Perhaps it is not the mic after all. I put it in front of the speaker (I have tried all speakers and in every...

    Bad SM57????

    Anyone ever have a SM57 go bad? No matter WHAT I do, it sounds fake and hollow and VERY week. I can crank my amp, put it RIGHT ON the speaker and get almost NO signal. I have changed cables, settings and everything else I can think of. Anyone else have this? If so, how did you fix it? Thanks Eric

    2488 Question
