    How did you start

    Get This True story. When I was about 10, my dad sold Lee Ritenour a new model Fostex 4-track (or was it a Teac?). (My dad owned a music shop and Rit was a customer). Dad took me to Lee's Malibu home to deliver it, but the night before my dad and I demo'd the recorder. We recorded...

    What Songs Do You Associate with that Brand of Guitar?

    Great thread so far. Listen to Comforably Numb, and just try to imagine any guitar other than a strat. If you can you're hallucinating. As for a Tele, Tom Petty.

    Acoustic Treatment & Decor

    We are buying a new house, new construction, and all of my recording will now happen in the downstairs den. So I'm charged with the task of selecting treatment for the walls & ceiling that the wife will approve of, both acoustically, and decoratively. Suggestions?
