Thanks guys. I think I'm probably going to get the Wharfedale 8.2a's. For my price range they seem like a pretty good deal.

What monitors should I buy :P I've got a budget of $300-350. I'm currently mixing a lot of vocal/acoustic guitar songs. but would like to record more heavy guitar/full band stuff down the road. I'm looking at the Warfedale 8.2a's for $275 (310 shipped) the Event 20/20 PS5(active) $299 (free...

Thanks you guys I'll keep that in mind. I was messing tonight with different setups and I think it's all a matter of spending a lot of time tweaking different things to get the sound I'm looking for. Great tips by the way.

Ok here's my setup.. I'm playing a Les Paul Studio through an AVT275, I own three mics: SM-75, OM-2, and a MXL990. I'm plugging my mics through a Behringer UB802 and that is plugged into my E-MU 0404. My problem is that no matter what I've tried thus far,(different mics/placement, eq) I've...

I've got an old Series 10 that I turned into a baritone. The B string is a .75(lol I had to drill out the tuning peg) and I put a 59 in the bridge. I used the "quieting the beast" mod. After rewiring it, the guitar sounded pretty decent. Using it clean with the neck single coils really gives...

Thanks for the advice :)

Thanks guys! That helps.

I'm looking to buy my first pair of monitors and I can't spend much. I wanted you guys apinion on these two monitors.. The Wharfedale Diamond Pro 8.2a (I can get these for $275) Berhringer TRUTH B2030A (I can get these for $280) I record a mix of acoustic/vocal songs and heavy electric guitar.

Thanks guys. I just didn't know if there was any sound differences or noise problems with either of the two. I'm getting a EM-U 0404 soon that I'll connect to my Berhringer UB802 mixer. I'll probably end up using 1/4 inch. Thanks for the advice! :D

I'm connecting my mixer to my computer. Would it be better to connect it with RCA or 1/4 inch, or does it even matter? Thanks

Thanks guys! I checked out the Wharfedale 8.2A's. I was really impressed. I would love to hear a some but I doubt Guitar Center or anyone else has a pair. Since the Wharfedale's are made in the UK do you need a power cord adapter? Also, how do you think the Wharfedale 8.2A's pair up against the...

Hey thanks, I'll check that out..

I'm looking to maybe buy a pair of monitors sometime next year, and I'm doing research now to find what would be the best for what I can afford. So what would you guys think would be some great monitors for near field work? I'm mixing in my home in a bedroom that's not really big. I can't...

Which would you prefer? http://www.musiciansfriend.com/srs7/g=rec/search/detail/base_pid/701341/ or http://www.musiciansfriend.com/srs7/g=rec/search/detail/base_pid/240390/

What's a good soundcard for around $100 bucks? Note: I'm just running a stereo signal(2, 1/4 inch jacks) from my mixer's output to the computer. Thanks

I've had this problem before Disposable so I don't think it was just a fluke. But I think I figured it out. I just recorded it at 2x and it's fine. So I guess that was my problem. Thanks guys

Thanks Blue Bear for your suggestion, but I don't think that's the problem. The reason, is that all of the files sound just as they should on my computer. (Even after condensing it to a WAV file) It's only when I burned it on a disk and played it in a CD player I could tell a loss in quality...

Hmm.. I can't seem to find a way to change the word size when I record. Though the individual tracks themselves are put in a folder called "media" and when I record something and go in that folder, all the files are already 16bit. "the low-order bits are zero'd and meaningless..."? not really...

Word size setting? do you mean bit depth? It's one of the options when you save it. (mix down) I had it at 16bit.

In the Preferences/Audio setup(in Kristal) there are these options. Block Size[Frames]: 2040 Playback Buffers: 6 Record Buffers: 10 Sample Rate: 44.10kHz Pre-Load Amount: two seconds Could there be any problem here?
