    My First Vocal recording... This is it people!!!

    Yo Neff: Music and vocal could use some "punch." Kind of soft. Needs to kick ass a little bit more. The Hip/Hop setting on my AW1600 would give you the boost you need; as well, any other AW1600. Ciao and keep recording. Green Hornet:cool:

    Recording my own violin playing

    Yo "Fiddler on the Roof:>] For the price you mention, I don't know how "GOOD" you can make recordings. For around 1k, you can get a Yam AW1600 multi-tracker which WILL give you quality recordings if you can cut the learning curve. Or, if you have a friend who knows the box to steer you along...

    broken monitor - HELP!

    Yo Tango Charley 4 Baker: Well, you might check google as there are places that specialize in speaker/monitor repair. Or, you might have a "stereo" shop in your town that can repair the unit. Or, you might check the connectors for loose wires/shorts/etc. Or, you might try a good television...

    Gotta replace my Sennheiser Pro280's

    :DYo Bill: The Beyer 770s are available at a few "reliable" vendors. I have one pair of the 770 model. Has a kind of velvet lining. They have the same quality as the 250s; however, at first I found them a tad tight but the eventually eased up from use. You might want to check them out...

    Shipping a heavy keyboard properly!

    :cool: I have to admit that the last couple of non-electronic packages I got from UPS looked like they were used to play kick-ball. But, the package had an inner box well insulated against dumb kickers of boxes. The PAK store I deal with seems to have friendly and responsible folks. Maybe...

    how to mic a grand piano

    :cool:Yo Gooley: The "GH1" number designator or whatever just made my mind wonder if he meant a standing electronic Grand or a Grand keyboard standing without electronics. For a non-jooce keyboard, there are many ways to mic it and the "room" certainly plays a big part, the floor, the carpet...

    how to mic a grand piano

    :DYo Nick: I always like the "easy" way. Is your "piano via Yam" electronic? If so, does it have "outs?" If it does have 1/4 inch outs, just run the keyboard DIRECT to your recording device. I've read about many folks recording keyboards/etc., via outboard speakers; well, if you have a...

    Roland Boss dr 880 Drum midi question/advice

    :cool:Yo Paul: Did I mention that you can change the "key" of any patch on the 880, as well as volume levels? It's a very good drum box. Green Hornet:cool:

    Motif rack es help.

    :DYo BAYMo_money:>] Check with a Yam techie--he/she will tell you, on the phone, exactly what to do to get to where you wish to get with your unit. I have a Motif; however, I have the keyboard. Just keep pushing the buttons until you get the right screen to adjust whatever it is you want to...

    Shipping a heavy keyboard properly!

    :DYo NDD and other letters of coded significance: Take your keyboard, when you are ready to ship to someone, to a UPS/FED-X shipping station. I don't know where you live but I have a shipping office about ten minutes from my crib. I always bring them BOXES/packing/pop-corn plastic, etc., from...

    Gotta replace my Sennheiser Pro280's

    :DYo BILL: Get a pair of Beyer 250s if you can find them. Cost is "medium high." However, I've been using two pair of them for 15 years--closed back--good sound for doing tracks. Green Hornet:cool:

    Roland Boss dr 880 Drum midi question/advice

    :DYo Paul: I got your drift. I don't know if you can "trigger" the 880 on your Korg or not. :eek: Maybe the Roland folks can give you a better answer? Since I do my tracks by overdubbing, I don't use the sequencer on my Motif--I just use the patches. Tons of stuff to learn on either the...

    Roland Boss dr 880 Drum midi question/advice

    :DYo Paul: I have the Boss 880 and I don't think you can program the bass line; the bass line can be turned off and you can add your own bass line from your Korg. You can also change the key of the bass line built into each patch; however, I'm not aware that you can program a bass line. You...

    ALESIS SR-16 trouble

    :DYea, verily::rolleyes: "BETTER YET," buy a Boss 880 drum box. I know they cost a few pezzutos but the patches are really vibrant, clear, and lots of funk stuff to kick up some jams. The 880 also has a bass line for each patch; you can change the key of any patch; you can let your guitar...

    Inexpensive Recording Monitors

    [B]:DUhh, you really don't record on monitors: you listen to what you've recorded in order to mix tracks in order to burn a CD. It's important to Hear as much as you can via the monitors in order to set levels, EQ, etc. How much you spend on monitors is optional. I'm sure a frugal pair of...

    Multitrack/Overdubbing setup?

    Yo Type O: Man, it's always easy when someone shows you how or you discover it. Everytime I turn on my box, it's a learning session. One day I spent about 30 minutes trying to figure out why I could not get a signal into track 3: Solution? All I had to do was plug in the input to track 3...
