    Baritone guitars

    Actually I guess it all depends on the scale length and what your after. Most guitar companies these days sell baritones as dropped tunning metal guitars with a 27"scale or less and then MusicMan has one that's listed with their basses and I think it's 28" or more. With humbuckers. I always say...

    Baritone guitars

    I've got one, it's a real honey. Strings are kindofa challenge I have to almost custom a set everytime. The baritone sets available always come with a wound G which is not my thing. It's pretty cool if you can avoid the numetal sound and do something cool with it.

    Mac DAW SW?

    Mac users, what are you using for DAW software? I'm looking for well executed wave editing, automation, and insert outs. I just read the post about everyone hating ProTools, so what are you using then? As far as I know our big hitters for Mac are DP, Logic, and SX. I'd like to steer away from...

    Best Mixer For HD24 Rig?

    I agree, everything that has adat I/O is all digital with menus instead of channel strips. It's frustrating. I'm gonna go look at gearsluts and check that out. That ATB series from Toft kinda peaked my interest. :eek:

    home made stuff--pictures

    I often run out of mic stands and have to resort to the old paint can. I taped a 20"x 2" peice of oak (scrap flooring) to the top of a paint can to mic my 2/12 guitar cab. Do whatcha gotta do. Maybe I'll post a pic of our single to double kick vdrum conversion. That's funny, I'll be back. :D

    Best Mixer For HD24 Rig?

    I just want to use adat from the HD24 to the mixer for mixing. I'm trying to keep computers out of this until they are really needed. Alot of project studio level boards I see that have adat I/O are full blown digital mixers with all the MIDI control bells and whistles I'm not looking for, I'd...

    DB25 connect to HD24 ?!

    I guess db25 for audio is Tascam's baby, mackie has it on the back ot their Onyx boards and i'm wondering if there is a db25 breakout cable to connect one of the said boards to the inputs of the Hd24? I know it sounds silly but these mackies don't have direct channel outs. Unless your expected...

    HR24 XR Vs. DigiOO2, DigiMaxLT combo

    I guess your right, I could run DP4 or something like that. I was kinda hung up on protools but if I can find a DAW that's not hardware dependent that works well what the hell?

    Best Mixer For HD24 Rig?

    The more I research consoles I realize that I'd like to find a 24ch 6 or 8 buss board with 24ch of adat I/O. The catch is I'm partial to analog channel strips, I don't want to cycle though menus to tweak the eq. I guess if I were to find something like that I'd be paying dearly for it. Anyone...

    Best Mixer For HD24 Rig?

    Thanks guys, you rock. Those are the kinda boards I'm looking for something to get me rollin. I need alot of other gear before I decide I need a $4000 console.

    Best Mixer For HD24 Rig?

    I'm having a hard time finding decent new board that do what I want for this setup. Either they're short on channels, too much $, or are out of production. Mackie has a 24ch Onyx but it's too much cake. Anyone know of a good place in Ontario between London and Toronto that might have used boards?

    HR24 XR Vs. DigiOO2, DigiMaxLT combo

    I was just looking into what gear I'm gonna have to have this year and it's rediculous. My audio card doesn't work with OSX 10.3.9 and I'm gonna have to mail it to Califorina to be looked at. I'm gonna have to replace it unless some really cool software comes out for OS9. It's a m-audio card so...

    HR24 XR Vs. DigiOO2, DigiMaxLT combo

    I guess I was raised with the paws off approach when recording.

    Best Mixer For HD24 Rig?

    I'm starting to see how this works. You start looking at bigger $$$ consoles to get what you need and push your budget then you think "if I'm gonna make that kind of investment I might as well go automated..." BAM! Now your spending 5 or 6 grand. :eek:

    Best Mixer For HD24 Rig?

    Here ya go boys, I'm looking for advice on what 24ch console to use as a mixing desk (not just a batch of pre's) to work with a HD24. I was interested in an Onyx 1640 which would probably be suffice for simult. inputs but that won't be enough for actual mixing everything from the deck. Lets hear...

    HR24 XR Vs. DigiOO2, DigiMaxLT combo

    I don't think I'd walk out of the audio shop without the fireport, the drag and drop would be such a savior. Sitting an listening to the whole project just to press stop on the DAW does not add any value to the process. I do that now with practice tapes twice a week and it drives me crazy. I...
