The inspiration behind the mix was to try to avoid the digital crisp and represent the rock element faithfully. I don't know if it worked or not. It has inspired me to finish the project and get on with my life. Chow

I think I read ya, and MD will work just fine for ya. The only downside is the transfer of audio to other devices. I don't know anything about this Tascam, and they do make good products but I'm unaware of any surge in technology besides the new MD walkmans having USB for quickly loading your...

I have used audacity for recording and I wasn't happy with the file type problems. I'm not sure what platform your using but if it's mac, try Peak (by Bias) or PC, try Cool Edit Pro. There should be lots of options for recording your material into your PC. The process should be the same as...

I finally got a track done from our latest sessions. Check it out. http://www.myspace.com/bileshake That was recorded at a local recording school then the raw tracks were brought home and imported into Cubase VST/32, Mac OS9. I'm not too proud of the details but you deserve to know.

Thanks I got one, but that's where I'd start. Start with a D112 and the try different overheads.

How close are you micing the snare? The direction of the mic is important too. They say if the mic is close (an inch) at the edge of the skin then you'll pick up the ring and body. If your pointed at the contact point of the stick you'll get the attack. Keep that in mind and find a good...

I agree with dgatwood, I have a Delta1010lt and love it and I'm sure it will be loyal to me as long as my current computer will still have it. But if I had a firewire interface, I could hook it up to a laptop, mac mini, whatever. I wouldn't have to worry about buying another machine that has PCI...

I guess this would be a good place for my question. Would it be possible to use an adat 8tk machine as the interface to feed the lightpipe on your 1814? I know you can blow money on things like the m-audio octane but I think it would be a very cost effective start to use an adat till everything...

Even better, goto http://www.lowendmac.com/ and look your machine up. Then you'll find all kinds of info on what you machine is capable of as far as OS upgrades then you know where your at.

Mastering is one thing I'd like to keep in real time. Find myself listening to a slightly different mix when I trust the DAW to create a mixdown track, I think we rely too much on software and not the sound.

I'm looking for info on the best bang for your buck CD mastering deck. What do you guys have to say? HHB, Sony, Alesis, Tascam... who's offering the best value these days. I'm interested in the Masterlink but I think the price is quite steep. There must be something out there that can do a...

I am also waiting paitiently to see how this baby flies. Right now I have to hump my MD8 roadcase and gig bag (besides all my guitar gear...) up and down two flights of stairs twice a week just to capture schetches at band practice. Then when I get home I have to record everyting onto my Mac in...

I've got an ESP HB-300 with duncan designed PU's. The output and focus isn't very high. If I was reading this post and had no experience with them I'd say that the stock PU's aren't properly "potted" like a good brand name pair but that doesn't seem to be the case. I think that the weaker output...

I have a 3Q and have had it for about a year. I love it, it's crisp when you want it and the EQ is handy to fix anything with special needs. My only dissapointment is there is only one channel in this box. For a guy working his way from the ground up why not? For the price, I'm gonna pickup a...

For the bridge, if the saddle angle is good for you when the bridge rests against the body, then add a spring on the back or tighten the ones you have. The body, I wouldn't bother stripping it down. The sunburst isn't that bad of a finish across the board. I'd shop for another body on ebay...

Nice rack metalhead. I have to build the same thing but maybe double wide. Thanks for the inspiration, I'll post some pics when I get something done.

Fancy someone using DLR and dickhead in the same post. :D

Maple all the way, I like ebony too but if your buying a fender. Maple and strats go hand in hand. I'd feel kinda cheesy if I came home with my first strat and it had a rosewood fingerboard. :(

There's some good books out there, I'd do some serious reading first. Not that you'll run away (I don't want to see that) just find what will possible work best for you before you jump in to anything. Learn from others mistakes. Example, theres a method of running a micro label where you sign...

I 've played this game for ten years and before I realized there's a simple theory to follow. Don't put your album in stores if you don't play in that area / and most importantly... don't tour if you don't have an album to sell. That kinda nails the whole process right in the bud. Set up a...
