    I want to buy a good Wah Wah pedal. Any recommendations?

    Yeah, I was actually considering the Cry Baby (classic). Well, does anyone know *which* one I should buy? I mean, the guys from Dunlop have a few models of these..... I've read good things about the 535Q. Ah, btw, @MadAudio: I've heard the Bad Horsie playing, and it does stink indeed! :)

    Regardless of price: AKG 240S or AKG 171?

    mbox question

    Hello. I am buying the mBox, so I have looked into these things a bit. Here you go: 1. The mBox gives phantom power out, so you won't need a preamp for this. 2. It has two XLR in's 3. It connects through USB, doesn't even need an external power source! :)

    Need soundcard/recording interface. Thoughts on Digidesign's mBox?

    Hello, I'm interested in buying some soundcard/rec interface, to record on my PC. I was thinking of spending up to $500.
