    Vocalist hits .393 hz, supposedly. I can vouch for 16.13 hz, though.

    Oh man, I heard this story live on NPR! They asked him to sing the record-breaking note and he said that he couldn't for legal reasons. So he just sang a "very low note" instead. :laughings: I could do without his singing. However, his speaking voice is delightful. He should do voice...

    What was your guitar/bass epiphany ?

    Moving Pictures, Rush. Man, that album opened my eyes to so many things I didn't know were musically possible. :eek: Particularly "Red Barchetta" and "Limelight"....those songs blew my mind. :D I used to be such a massive Rush fan. Saw 'em live in summer of '07. They kicked ass, though Geddy...

    crack in finish on neck of Epiphone archtop

    I own a 1996 Epiphone Emperor VC archtop. As a moronic 16 year-old, I left this guitar leaning precariously on a chair, and (surprise!) it fell, causing the black lacquer finish on the neck to crack. Basically, the finish is chipped a tiny bit in a bunch of places right where the neck meets the...

    How many Guitar Amps do you own?

    I'm clueless about amps. Back when I played jazz guitar, I owned a Polytone Mini-Brute II. What a jazz amp! Nowadays, I own a Line 6 amp (don't know what kind) that stays at college, a shit-tastic somewhat broken (I think some wires are loose) 15W Fender Bullet (I know, I know....it came free...

    DIY mic shields - any thoughts?

    Yes! Thank goodness people on this forum seem to understand this. I've been listening to a lot of Buddy Holly lately. The recording quality is meh, but the performance quality...the charisma, the energy, the excitement...it all punches through and makes you appreciate even more that it was done...

    DIY mic shields - any thoughts?

    :laughings: This sounds pretty funny, but hey, I'll definitely give it a try. Blankets are probably just as effective though, no? Though I suppose the extra thickness of the couch helps.... I'll test it out and report back.

    ^^^ Whoa, that vid kicks ass! The singer has a beautiful voice....I find it hard to even pay attention to the recording quality, but yes, I agree, the sound is excellent. I appreciate all the advice! What I plan to do is set up my equipment, have an initial go with no room treatment, see how...

    How did you learn to sing?

    Dinty, I notice you've mentioned Seth more than once....you sound pretty convinced. How do you begin to learn his method? Does he sell a virtual course? Can you take personal lessons with him? I'd love to hear more about this guy. :)

    How did you learn to sing?

    Singing in the shower. Singing while walking down the street (this gets me some quizzical looks). Singing along with my favorite vocalists. Singing in my head. Singing alone. Singing with friends. I'd love to take a vocal lesson or two someday....but until me and my budget are on the same page...

    DIY mic shields - any thoughts?

    My garage is full of junk....there's one big sofa, and a few dozen moving boxes, as well as an assortment of tools and miscellaneous knick knacks. I'll try to cram some more stuff in to fill up the space. I guess what I'm most concerned about is how high the garage is....I don't know anything...

    Any great VST effects for Vocals?
