Experiment with other instruments! Try writing a song on a keyboard... even a simple 3 note chord on a piano then add a bass line decending or ascending as you move to the next chord will give you a totally different feel than guitar chords strumming. Also try using chords built on alternate...

MORE SPACE! I would have made the studio, control room, drum room and isolation booth all larger. When recording a full band with drums guitars keyboards bass etc it gets really crowded! "Give me land, lot's of land neath the starry skies above- Don't fence me in! DOM:p

NOPE..... They are two different instruments, and two different sounds... Buy a Fender (or Squier) Precision bass for a basic country sound. Dom:)

Just plug it in! The faders and EQ section will have no effect on the output at the direct out jack. Dom:)

You can copy any track to another Just hit the edit button, and scroll through the options. You can copy and paste several tracks or even duplicate the whole program into another program. You cannot however "bounce" several tracks down to one internally. For this you will need a mixer, so...

It's fine There is a capacitor in the power supply circuit that is holding a charge for a while until the voltage bleeds off. That is what capacitors are supposed to do. (They hold a charge, *hence "capacity" measured in Farads is a unit of storage) This the same principle that a stun gun or...

I have successfully miked a choir with.. Two high quality condensor mikes at the edge of the stage about 20 feet apart. At least 10 feet in front of the choir will help to avoid any individual voices to stand out too much. This also gets some ambient room sound, and audience response. In a...

I like the round based stands better than tripods, the seem to tip over less often. You can also slip a barbell type weight (10 lb) over it and it will never tip! DOM:cool:

Be sure to get shielded cable! BELDEN cable is an industry standard, Get "Switchcraft" connectors.....NO Radio shack! Solder carefully with rosin core solder, test all connections and use a strain relief and or heat shrink tubing to protect the ends from being pulled out. That should do...

OKAY here's a few ideas.... You could.... 1. Start out the song with just guitar and high hat, and on the second line slam the meters with Full Bass and drum groove. 2. Use an accoustic guitar and muffled drums or Djiembe for a different sound. 3. Add a cheezy casio keyboard track (Strings...

Great machine.... You will need a decent mixer, (Mackie or better!) But If you find one for a good price you will have a nice setup. You can always add another unit and they will sync together with a midi cable and fibre optic. Have fun; Dom:)

I have had no problem finding drives! I just search ebay for Quantum, Fireball etc.. Western digital... 2.55 Gigs give you 1 hour of recording. I have 2 DMT8VL's that I sync together for 16 tracks, and I have several extra hard drives that work great! You should be able to pick up a few...

The relays would be in the cabinet If the horns aren't turning, then the motor control board may be bad. You may have a newer model then mine and it may use switching transistors instead of relays? That would be harder to fix, and would involve de-soldering and testing etc.... Doe's it...

Q. What kind of affordable recorder for demos would someone have been able to get in 1989? A. A Tascam 80-8 1/2" tape Reel to reel, (With slightly worn heads). A couple of used Tapco mixers with big knobs! Q. How much would something like that cost? A. $500.00 cash, purchased in the...

could be a blown relay? There is a relay module that steps down the voltage to your footswitch, so that you are not switching 110VAC with each step... Check it out, it should be a clear box about 1inch square with thin metal contacts that close when you step on the switch. Check to see if any...

Very Nice I have written a couple of songs for Christmas as well... Maybe some say I will learn how to post them on this site? Great song keep up the good work. Dom:D

OOP's This comment was in response to ARMISTICE'S Thread, and I started a new thread by mistake.... sorry Dom:eek:

Just what constitutes a real "Professional" studio is up for debate. I have recorded in some of the finest world class studios and also in converted garages. The one thing that can make it or break it is the Engineer. In my oppinion a good engineer can get a great recording almost anywhere...

Ear Training There is no substitute for experience.... Practice, Practice, Practice.... Here are some things to try: Play your open "G" string on the guitar, sing that note Play your open "B" string on the guitar, sing that note' Now play the G and sing the B... ok? That's harmony. Play a...
