    Boston Acoustic

    Well, More Than a Feeling starts with a 12-string... if they're tuned right they always sound great. ;) It might be multitracked and hard-panned too, but I can't remember right now. Probably unlikely also because I beleive they only recorded the Boston album on 12 or 16 track tape--the CD...

    Need help, noob, can I record in stereo...

    I think people may be going over your head. You're probably trying to record in stereo. If you only have one microphone, and attempt to record in stereo, it's only going to playback in the left headphone. Record in mono, and it should playback in the center.

    PC or Mac for recording?

    Has anyone recorded 7 tracks at once on a 700mhz Windows PC with 256MB RAM? (And not have any crapouts) I highly doubt it... And that's if I've got my numbers right. I did so with my old 350mhz G4 that either had 128 or 256MB in it, way back when I first bought my Delta 1010LT.

    Question for Classical Music Recordists...

    Eep, all of the classical recordings I've done (so far) have been in nice rooms that don't need extra reverb!

    Keyboard Recommendations

    To be honest, I haven't heard a software emulation that I like a whole lot yet. NI makes one, Apple (through Logic) has one. I imagine that a fully weighted board would be the most accurate. I play a semi-weighted board (though my Rhodes comes from my Kurzweil PC2R, which is the best Rhodes...

    Waves Plugin

    At the very least they could have said they were using the demo to do it. I downloaded that once to give it a try, and found so many options and variables I didn't know what to do with myself.

    My fender rhodes is too heavy.....switching to digital piano

    I haven't had too much experience with them, but I can't really consider anything Casio makes worthy of a real keyboardist. My best advice to you is to go to a store that sells a large variety of keyboards, so that you can try them out, hear them, and see what you like best. You'll probably...

    Mellotron

    I have the Classic Keys ROM installed in my Kurzweil PC2R. :)

    Which Firepod deal is the best?

    I would personally go with option 3, just because you could probably get more use out of the mics. I'm a little blah over the power conditioner, and option two is worthless in comparison.

    Egg crate foam

    From someone whose band lost a member and nearly lost as second in that very fire... I recall that it was the certain TYPE of foam that was determined to be highly flammable. There are many different types of egg crate foam. They are not all the same. The very article states that it was made...

    Looking for a Keyboard Amp

    Yeah, I've played through a Roland amp at open mics and they're always on a stool or something. Not bad, but they always seem to be tiny compared to other amps. My Crate is a monster, but I love it for the price.

    What IS this keyboard?

    I thought of Emu and Ensoniq too and he said those weren't it... and it ended up being $150 on eBay. But I'm told it's got a great sound and I should get one, lol... and I have no idea what it is. This info all comes from the rhythm guitarist from my band... who was talking to the keyboardist...

    Outboard Gear & Mobile Recording...

    I'm told that most retail music stores will always knock down the price of 57s or 58s. And there's always clones. I have 3 57 clones (I can't remember the name exactly!) that I got from an eBay shop--Orange County Speaker. They're great and I got 3 brand new for the price of one new 57...

    When you finish mastering.

    Note to people sending in stuff to be pressed. Ideally you should send them your master CD. Hopefully they won't have a problem with it. The goal is not to send them what the package should look like. You send them the graphic design stuff (or in some cases have them design it) separately. And...

    What IS this keyboard?

    Does anyone know of a smallish red synthesizer whose manufacturer begins with the letter E? This board was being described to me yesterday... I thought it was a Nord, but was told it definitely wasn't... Thought I'd run it over here, see if anyone else had a clue.

    S/PDIF problem (soooo weird)

    I've used regular RCA cables from my Kurzweil PC2R to my Delta 1010LT, and I think the only problems I've had were settings. I think the computer being more of the problem than the box.

    Looking for a Keyboard Amp

    I have a Crate KBA 150 that I picked up used for around $300 at Guitar Center. I was a bit weary about buying it since it was used and quite retro looking, but it does everything I need and is much louder than the 300 watt Alesis I was looking at.

    When Marshalls Ruled the World!!!!

    What I would like to know is how all these high school aged kids end up with these Marshall stacks these days. And many of them are new stacks. I just can't see how anyone can afford such a thing... I mean, I'm a keyboardist, and I think that my Crate KBA150 was a massive value at $300 used...

    Looking for a Keyboard Amp

    I'd never thought of that... though those powered JBLs in my experience don't have much as far as inputs. Just one XLR in, if I recall. You'd need at least a DI box to use it.
