    Guitar multi-effect

    So here's my situation: My collection of amps is quite slacking and poor so I want to just direct input guitar/bass and just go. The problem now is that I'm kinda stuck on what to use. I've has a line6 toneport ux1 and onboard effects=suck. The one thing I have tried though is guitar rig 3 and I...

    Do you really buy that expensive recording software?

    after reading two pages of this, all I can say is.... REAPER! awesome software and it's a test of morals itself. Do you do the right thing and buy? or do you continue on with your never-ending evaluation period?! I paid so I'm good :)

    recording essentials

    Amen to that. I hate to say it but five years of guitar is slowly being washed away by the sea of recording.

    Suggestions for old HP Pavilion

    with 128 mb of ram? good luck. the really cheap titles will be all you can use but you'll be limited. I tried running reaper on a dell gx150 (P3 996 MHZ with 512 MB RAM) and i could barely lay down two tracks let alone add effects and what not without hanging everything up.

    Recording to flash drives vs. external drives

    It would also be smarter to save it all to the computer's hard disk first, and then transfer it to the external or flash or whatever

    is it worth the "upgrade"?

    I would say stay away from the frontman series. Personally, I didn't like the sound. Then again, that's me. I'd say go with a VOX or search around for a decent used tube amp ( it's possible you know since most of my amps are used)

    Need Help With Recording Studio Design

    yep I'd have to agree with that one. being 17, I know alot of my friends also see instruments and automatically are drawn to them like flies to.... well you know I mean really at this point why not just convert the master bedroom to the theater and live in the studio! hah :)

    Best Simple Drum Mic setup

    well thats simple enough! I still have to build the room though but it's ultimately going to end up as a 10x10 room which i am gonna use for a live room/isobooth for drums vox and acoustic instruments

    Did you save it up or you took out a loan for it?

    I usually find something, see the price, then go straight to my good pal EBAY. Even then though, I always would do cash versus taking out a loan, too much trouble in the long run.

    HELP! Hard drive problem

    Another option would be to change the jumper setting to "slave" versus "master" or "cable select"

    Best Simple Drum Mic setup

    Best Simple Drum Mic setup

    so pretty much it would be safe to assume that a decent sound could come from two Naiants, a sm57 on snare, and lets say a beta 52a on kick?

    Decided I need 8 inputs - because of how i currently record

    really now, I 've read that it has selectable phantom for half of the channels at a time. looking at it again though couldnt you just hit both buttons and make everything phantom?!? So looks like you all are in agreeance that I should go with the Tascam?

    is vista better with 64 bit?

    it's true it's true. Vista wasnt made just to royally piss everyone off, it is supposed to run alot faster and look good while doing it! as long as you allow or deny the change hah

    Decided I need 8 inputs - because of how i currently record

    Funny I come upon this thread now because i'm in the same spot. I'm torn between the tascam and the firestudio the only negative side of the tascam looks to me like the limited phantom power any input on which one? other than the $100 difference!!

    Toneport users...a question

    To be honest, I'm a ux1 user and abuser :) The one downside I've seen with gearbox effects is the horrible heavy distortion settings. Everything in crunch and clean sounds amazing but it's just something with the massive distortion that just doesn't cut it. Even with tweaking alot of the...

    Looking for new desktop with XP

    I believe I've heard Dell still offers XP not 100% sure though check tigerdirect.com or newegg.com they have xp computers on there im sure and if not see if you can just get ahold of a computer that supports xp and just buy the operating system. don't forget your drivers though
