    One of those days, I guess

    sigh... I hate that. I really really do. When that happens I tend to start all over, because the odds are by the time I realize I have gone that far I have done more harm than good. A messy project is gonna sound like a messy project.

    Basic Question from a newbie about volume

    While you found your answer I had $.02 to throw in. Seeing as your new to the stuff an all, and I like to throw helpful info out when I can. When your tracks are going past 0.0db you are clipping. So yeah going into the red is normally bad, I'm on PC, and have never used garage band. But, it's...

    Do you record the whole song or just one section at a time?

    For me is piece by piece. Instrument by instrument. Since I have no other working band members, just a few musician friends who give input. I write and record all at the same time. Since every thing is on my DAW it's pretty simple. I like it this way because it simplifies the whole process. It...

    Accurately Capturing Distorted/Chunky Guitar

    So far much of what has already been said has been solid advice for you. I'm listening to the songs up on myspace, and I noticed there is A LOT of flange/phaser on the guitars. I figure its one of two things. 1) You guys are going for that or 2) It's being used to lower the harshness of the...

    Emu 0404 / Vista

    I've not had that problem. But, which version of the 0404 are you using, USB, or PCI? I have read some posts some where a while back that people were experiencing problems with the USB version. Personally in my experience the E-mu drivers have sucked out right up until the latest release. Other...

    First off recreating any sound from the Deftones is not an easy task as it is all about the equpment that's used. From the artist, to the instrument , signal chain every thing plays a bigs part. But that a side You can come prety damn close with things like Reason using the RDK2.0 sample...

    is vista better with 64 bit?

    Vista or not to Vista that is th ultimate question (pun not intended). I have been using Vista x64 for a while now and have had no deal breaking issues with it. The issues I have had are poor drivers from E-mu, and the in-abillity to rewire reason into a 64bit host. Those are 3rd party problems...

    The best RAM for DAW?

    I've been using patriot for a few years now, and I've had good results. I don't know much about OCZ as I have never used it my self. But, I do know it is popular in the gaming PC crowd. Seeing as most hardcore PC gamers like to overclock I would have to say that OCZ being popular amongst that...

    can I swing a Mac?

    You have to throw form factor out the window because it's not a part of the original question. He just said he would really like a mac, and knows that its most likely just a dream with a budget of $500-700 dollars. Much like just about every other "How much computer can I get for XX amount of...

    recording help help help

    :eek: Stereo recording is achieved by the use of 2 microphones recording the same sound source. In essence a stereo recording is two separate monaural recordings that were created at the same moment in time. Buy another mic, plug it in and go. When it doesn't sound right and you get...

    can I swing a Mac?

    Mac is kind of pointless now. The golden age of the mac has deffinetly come and gone. PC, and mac are now equal competitors is a saturated market. Apple should pull back on there prices a bit. For 500-700 bucks you can get about twice the PC you would get form a mac in that same price range...

    Doubling guitar tracks

    Personally I either Play it again, copy paste, or none of the above. It all depends on what sounds the best for the song in question, because that is all that really matters.

    When you're recording always remember garbage in = garbage out. Not saying you play like garbage. But, if you record something and your getting alot of things in there you don't want. Then most offten it is because of how it was recorded. That being said what manner are you using to record? Are...
