    Loud Beep

    I did check to see if someone else posted this before and couldn't find an answer. I've been getting a interuption during my playback, a loud beap. The playback keeps going and is right on time when the beap is over. Any one know what could be causing this? Equipment used Software: Adobe...

    Who Destroyed Metal?

    Metal died in the 90's when all the old bands like Kiss and Black Sabbath reunited but claimed they weren't and never were metal. Hum... I guess Paul and Gene did all those Hit Parader and Metal Mania shows to give an outsiders point of view. :rolleyes: Or maybe it was when Winger, Nelson and...

    Buying Guitars Mail-order or On-line, do ya?

    I've done it once. MF had a deal where a MIA Strat was $100 off with a free iPod shuffle. Couldn't pass it up. The guitar came in great shape. As far as matching I know of a few stores that around here won't do it. :eek: Some will though you have to bring the cataloge in or print off the page...

    Hopes of Metal,Solos,and Speed coming back strong...

    I was thinking of the wammy effect used during the "Zero" solo. Seemed to noise for noise sake.

    Hopes of Metal,Solos,and Speed coming back strong...

    The Solo never died Despite what people might think the solo never ever really went away. It changed; it devolved if that is really a word. AIC, Pearl Jam, even pop bands like Hootie and the Blowfish went back to a blues lyrical base. You did have guys like Tom Morello who we're pushing the...

    Strengthen the pinky

    Thanks for the advice guys. I've been working on it for awhile and can feel some results, but I'll give some of these things a try. I think part of my limitations is small fingers. It really takes effort to stretch across the 5th - 7th - 9th fret. Some of the guys in my band we're watching G3...

    Strengthen the pinky

    Any one got any tips for strengthing the pinking on my left (fret) hand. I've gotten better at using it but it still sort of flops around and isn't as strong as the other fingers.

    Just plan synth loops

    Anyone know of any synth loops where it is just one note or chord held down for four beats? I don't want anything with fancy runs and stuff.

    Potentially stupid questions

    Potential stupid question I’m getting some white noise interference at times when recording through my firepod to my laptop. I’ve turned off the wireless port, background applications and software and sometimes it still comes through. I’ve been told this is a PC problem, is this true? Would a...

    Audition 2.0 officially announced and available

    I got it off e-bay for $70, and would say it was well worth it. It just depends on how you pick up stuff the best. As I've said before I've never been one that was patient with manuals and would toss them and start clicking and exploring until I got where I wanted. So having a video that...

    Audition 2.0 officially announced and available

    Well I broke down and upgraded this weekend. I downloaded it straight from the Adobe site. Downloading took about an hour and a half, set up about 15 minutes. Pretty easy and quick. Came with updated loops. Though I haven’t looked through them it seems to be the same stuff as the 1.5. Also...

    50 Cent

    I like Fifty's new... oh wait that was the Miami Hurricane Football team's new (2 year old) song. For a bunch of amatures, it sure sounds like the rest of the hip hop on the radio. Just in case you haven't heard it http://media.putfile.com/7th-Floor-Crew

    Cool Edit Pro 2.0 vs Adobe Audition 1.5

    It's like word processing software. Using one over the other doesn't make you a better writer.

    The Right Humidity?

    I talked to the guy who works on my guitars. He said as long as it isn't a hollowbody you shouldn't have to humidfy your electric guitar. I trust this guy, but maybe Light can shed some more light on the subject.

    where does tone from?

    The Story I heard was that Ted was dying to try out Ed's rig to see how he got his sound. He got on there and sounded like Ted. When Alice in Chains played with Van Halen Cantrell said Eddie got on his gear and still sounded like Eddie.

    Aside from the loudness war and musical taste...

    There has always been a derived pattern in popular music. After Motley Cure revived the “Glam” look of the 70’s for Theater of Pain even established acts like Ozzy and Judas Priest started dressing the same. Most added synths when Bon Jovi’s “Slippery When Wet” broke big. And of course...

    Ways to get gigs?

    Buddying up with bands is a good way to get gigs. Volunteer to open up the show by taking the first set, you know the one where people are still showing up and just starting to drink. Do it for free or a few beers off the tab. At best you get people interested in what you’re doing and if you...

    Variax or Les Paul... Is it a question?

    The 12 sting and sitar stuff sounded interesting But why hire Christian Slater to do his impression of Jack Nichelson, when you can get Jack himself.

    The Gear Wars!

    Well, no. I did pay the extra cash because it was an American Fender. But color did play a small factor. Just recently I’ve been able to afford the finer things in life (which doesn’t mean I’m buying them all) and an American Strat was always on the list. Of course I tried it out first and...
