    Preamp Tips?

    Just started using the ART Dual tube preamp and I love what it is doing for me - I get to bypass the noisy preamps in the Alesis board.

    Need Help on Burning CD

    digital delay problems.

    I am getting something of the same thing using a Digitech S100 for the doubling delay. I'm actually just playing with it and using the built-in doubling delay setting which I think is about 20 ms. Anyway, I get a very tinny high end that sounds like what you are describing. I have been playing...
