    Guitar amp hum

    Update to my post, the problem is not exactly the hum, it is more a sound like you wouldhear on a very quiet night like a high srill from locusts or something, don't know how to dscribe it really, but the problem is more of that than the hum.

    Guitar amp hum

    Hi, I was just in the process of miking and recording from my 12 x 12 guitar amp when I noticed for the first time that there was humming anytime I turned up the treble, pre and post knobs, when they are low the hum isn't there but then the amp is not loud enough. Anyone know if there is...

    Aria Pro II

    Oi guys, I bought my Aria Pro II in 1989 and it's still serving me fine, although I only use it in the studio though. Doubt it will be worth up to the $200 that gasal69 paid for it though, although I don't know about the Aria bass guitars.

    Miking bass and guitar

    Thanks for the note of caution. Ideally, the best thing would be to borrow one and try it out, but to rent will be a quarter of how much it costs to acquire, so I have to think carefully about that. I think the key here is that if I get the sm57, it is unlikely it will be of no use. It seems I...

    Miking bass and guitar

    I know what you mean, I have a locker full of 15 years of SM58's which preceded my Neumann! I didn't really bother with the SM57's cos I have always preferred to DI my basses and guitars mainly cos I always had crap cabs. It's only now I am exploring combining the DI sound with the miked sound...

    Miking bass and guitar

    The gist from what you all are saying is that I can get the Neumann to do the job, but I might have to tweak here and there to get a good sound, but with the SM57, I should get the good sound straight away. I guess I might as well go and get it, it seems to be industry standard. I wasn't really...

    Miking bass and guitar

    I havven't got the SM57, that is the reason I was asking, to find out whether I should get it or use the Neumann. I know the Neumann would give me something I may find acceptable, but without the comparison, I won't really know if I could have cut something better. I just wanted to know whether...

    Miking bass and guitar

    You mean DI the bass? To be honest I was gonna do a DI and a mic'd bass at the same time and try to combine them.

    Miking bass and guitar

    Hi, I use a Neumann TLM 103 for vocals and want to record some bass and rhythm/guitar by miking the amp. I hear a Shure SM57 is good for this purpose, but what I was wondering was whether my Neumann could give me equally good results or is it not suitable for that type of work?

    Recording a Talkbox

    Haha. Not to worry I undertsand what you are saying. I am using a standard domestic amp to answer your question. Hey, I live in London, these guys will spit on me if I offered them $25 with the £ to $ rate as it is at the moment. Cheers

    Recording a Talkbox

    Thanks for that, I follow it now. When you say the 8 ohm output of my domestic amp, are you referring to any of the speaker outputs? If so how do you convert a standard 2 wire speaker output into an xlr for plugging into the input of the Talkbox? Sorry to ask all these questions.

    Connecting a talk box

    Sorry, I wasn't aware of that, naughty me. It was one of those threads where I wasn't quite sure where to post it.

    Recording a Talkbox

    Hi, I have a Heil Talkbox which I want to use on a few tracks (for keyboards, not guitar). Anyone know if there is a way I can connect and record without using an amphead? Can I use a domestic amp for example, or a mixer? I am tempted to try but I have been warned that I could blow the Talbox or...

    Bass guitar pitch

    I am recording a song on which I am playing bass. The problem is that the key of the song requires that I play the song higher up the fretboard, the result being that the bassline does not sound deep enough for my liking. If I detune the bass guitar, the notes are too low and muffled. Anyone...

    Do you really buy that expensive recording software?

    I used to go searching for and downloading loads of pirate stuff. Slowly and at the most crucial times, each and everyone of them came back to bite me without fail. At times it was the software, at times it was just the sites I was accessing messed up my system anf then you have to clean up and...
