    Seasounds went under

    Yeah I found that out this weekend... I went to Sam Ash on 48th in NYC, and they were selling a SoloEX and the expansions for 199 and 99 (respectively) I was so tempted to snatch it up (cool blue, rack mount)... But I didn't know jack about SeaSounds.... so I ran over to an internet cafe and...

    my little room

    hey! I resemble that "brooklyn" style budget remark! :D From what i've read around this joint for a small area like that (similar to mine) I'm guessing you could hang some heavy blankets, and make like a small isolation booth... someone hit me with a shovel if I am wrong.

    I just have to recommend this!

    the ashbory is pretty cool, although it does sound "different" to say the least. I can't really say much about it since I hadn't much time to play it, it was in a shop. as for tunings, most of the time I see 5-strings tuned as BEADG, occasionally I see EADGC I have a six string bass that I...

    Tell me which Bass guitar is your favorite!

    My favorite of the Basses i have is an Ibanez SR506 with DX6 Active pickups. It has a few tweak controls so I can fiddle with that for the right sound I want when recording.

    Opinions wanted

    anyone else? I value all your opinions more on the mixing/technical aspects, i'd really like to get the hang of the recording process better. Most of my friends just either tell me "I don't like metal" or "dude that rox" which is not very helpful. hey did you feel that? it was a bump :D

    Opinions wanted

    Ok, so I finally grow the bravery to post an MP3 here... http://www.condemned.net/~karl/audio/eternal.mp3 it's called "Eternal - The Zero Hour" It's got no singing (trust me, you do not want to hear me sing) It's all Me and my Drum Machine. Tell me what you think of the mix, the song itself...

    Studio Materials / Questions

    Thanks for the replies guys, they were really helpful. So 12'x12' is a good size you think? So now 3 out of the 4 walls are against concrete/brick, so I'll have to look at the other methods of wall design. But at least one wall will be built in between rooms so I guess i'll use the staggered...

    Studio Materials / Questions

    Hey people... I am planning on soundproofing and "Studio-izing" a section of my basement. I was just looking over that SAE Site (John Sayers site, I believe), and he has some good stuff on wall construction and so on... a few questions: I'm guessing that the Higher the STC (sound transmission...

    Anyone used a 788 or similar unit??

    The 424 is only capable of midi sync if you use one track (4 i believe) and write MTC to it. You also need a converter of sorts so your sequencer can chase that signal. The 788 has a built in MTC/Midi Sync/etc generators, with regular MIDI ports so you can simply put it somewhere in your midi...

    Anyone used a 788 or similar unit??

    I just recently bought a 788, upgrading from a 424 also. I have to say if you are used to the 424 (or mainly any Tascam recorder) the 788's concepts will be easy to pick up. There's a lot of cool features, and it's pretty simple to use and record with. My only gripe is the lack of XLR inputs...

    Too much bass on mixdown?

    Ok, I'm a newbie at all this stuff here, so please bear with me... Basically when I'm mixing down some tracks to test out on "real" listening systems (stereo, walkman, whatever) I always end up with too much bass... even though it sounds completely flat when i'm mixing down. So much bass that...

    Tascam 788 Opinions?

    Hey everyone, I just wanted to get some thoughts and opinions on the Tascam 788 Portastudio. (Digital 8-track Hard Disk recorder) Has anyone here used one? Is it worth the price tag (roughly $900). Has anyone used the MIDI control features? Is the sound quality decent on it? (not looking...

    ALESIS QS6.1 TO COMPUTER

    I have a QS8, so this might help a bit... You might have to tell the keyboard to use the serial port and not the midi port... (i'm not near my keyboard right now, I can't tell you the exact steps) But I believe its in the global setup options.
