I get the feeling that these people are assuming that EVERYTHING you do is either going to be a direct sample, or that you're going to record it using an instrument. I'm pretty sure that's not your intention. You know what may be a great resource, MOBY HIMSELF. He often speaks in interviews...

I agree with Kristan here. CD's are way better than tapes for demo purposes these days. It's possible to make them for so much less money. When I was younger (like 2 years ago actually) my band's made demo tapes. We sold them for two dollars and pretty much were lucky to break even, which I...

I just bought a five pack of Maxell Type two for $4.45. I love employee discounts!!!!! ~james

Hey, I was wondering about the prospect of mixing my recordings down to a mini disk? A friend of mine who's in a band with me, and who I plan on recording solo material for has a mini disk with a cable that goes to the USP(or is it USB?) port on computers. I thought this was a good idea...

where's your site? I'm new:) I'd love to hear all about this. All the guys that did our recordings were pretty bad. Well, the last two guys weren't so bad. The first guy that tried to make me feel dumb because I was so young (maybe 15) was terrible. He didn't even make sure the drums were...

I've noticed that "real" professional studios usually have very little in the way of sound deadening foam on the walls, while every studio that has been in the budget of my band's ($30 an hour) have always been 100% covered in foam. What's the deal? Personally I think that all that foam...

Well, coming from a sort of hardcore background, I think perhaps I can give you some advice. I don't know about actuall recording techniques and all, but here's what I'm thinking. Please forgive me if you have all this figured out. I think that you should try to get that heavy heavy...

Guess what!? The 8 track worked all along! I don't know what was going on, but when I used it a year and a half ago the drummer of the band I was in at the time and I couldn't hear anything, but that one track. Today I plugged it in so I could give you guys more info on the situation. Guess...

No icon, that may be improvement! I guess I should have told you all exactly what was happening first. The thing is that some of the tracks aren't working at all, some are extreamly muffled, and one (I believe track 4) works perfectly. Just thought I'd get all that out into the open. ~james

Yes, another sad face. This relapping that you were talking about, is that replacing those worn-down pieces on the heads? And now you say that would be like over $100 huh. Man, that's rough for an old 80-8. If I was to order the heads, without installation, what do you think that would run...

Over time I've aquired enough equipment to start doing my own home recordings. The only problem is that some of the stuff doesn't work. The main problem is the open-reel 8-track recorder. It's a TEAC 80-8, and the heads are gone. I mean they're worn to nothing. Do any of you know where I...
