    Hoobastank's cool snare tip

    i've been resisting the urge to post here, but what the hell. all these little "tips" and "tricks" are all fine and good, and maybe people get something out of them. but i personally find them ridiculous. just find a snare you like the sound of, tune it up right, throw a mic on it, and hit the...

    M-Audio DMP3 mic pre advice

    this post nails it. i'm a line 6 fan, and i cannot believe that they've packed thousands of dollars of high-end circuitry w/ software included into a $200 unit. i mean, sure, they can emulate the color to an extent, and i don't even doubt that it sounds decent. what i have a harder time...

    New Mic Setup

    my gut reaction: audix d6, akg d112, or shure beta 52 for kick: $200 sm57 for snare and electric guitar cabinet: $0 since you already have one mxl 603 pair for OHs: $200 akg B-XL II for acoustic and voice: $1000 done for $1400 without even shopping for bargains. you could do better on...

    Four questions

    yeah, i wouldn't say i creamed my jeans over it or anything, but it was a hell of a deal and a huge step up from the aria pro II that i bought in a pawn shop when i was 19 and have been playing ever since. it's not a horrible guitar, but i've grown increasingly irritated with it over the past...

    fustrating 24" bass drum

    were you using the internal mic on the edirol??? if so, that's totally you're problem. small diaphragms simply don't pick up low frequencies very well simply because of the physical size of a low freq sound wave. you wouldn't be able to eq it regardless, just because you can't add something that...

    fustrating 24" bass drum

    does the drum sound the way you want in the room, just not on tape? if you're only having problems with the recorded sound, i'm thinking mic selection/placement may be your problem. just a thought.

    counting on audience participation, are we? i doubt he'd even notice the mass exodus. fucking guitarists. :D

    OT?? Guitar etiquette?

    i know what your problem is, and it's very simple: he's 19. if i found myself in a band w/ a 19-year-old (and a GUITARIST to boot) with such delicate political implications, i'd probably just fake cancer and quit. :D really, there's no easy way to do this. if the rest of you are serious about...

    M-Audio DMP3 mic pre advice

    you'll probably get a few other suggestions along the way, but if you've combed through the threads enough, the consensus speaks for itself. the dmp3 is an unbelievable value. if you're looking for clean preamplification, i can't imagine doing better at the price point.

    Time for a new kick drum mic

    because philgood and i are drummers, that's why. i, and i assume he (based on his many postings in the drum forum) are not in the least bit interested in sound replacement, triggers, etc. that phony crap is for people who aren't passionate about drums. and yes, the odd out-of-order postings...
