    BR-8 Troubles

    Hi Green Hornet I havent looked into any of the current Yamaha product but based on past experience would expect it to be very good quality. I've worked in music retail for a number of years but due to wholesaler politics we havent done Yamaha for a few years and I'm not up with their latest...

    Art and Lutherie

    The mother website is www.lasidio.com and you can check the Godins, Art Lutheries, Seagulls etc. I think they are a nice guitar for the price. The satin finish is easily scratched by fingernails and picks. Nice mellow tone.:)

    BR-8 Troubles

    Hi T-SIS Does it have a 'reinitialize' or restore factory setting function mentioned in the manual? If it does and that works it will probably erase user settings. :confused: I guess you've got your stuff backed up on Zip disks or another harddrive. Good luck ~ hopefully it hasnt died on you...

    Mexican Strats

    Check this link for a comparison of the American Standard Strat versus a Mexican: http://www.bothner.co.za/products/fender/mexvsus.shtml To my ears its the pickups that let down the mex strats. If it plays well and is set up well or you can see it will set up well why not put in a set of your...

    the right pick?

    I use Dunlop Jazz III for definition and attack when fast accurate picking is necessary. The sharp point on the III is good for this. Have been trying the Big Jazz III find it quite good too. Years ago I used to cut a sharp point on a hard Dunop Delrin until I discovered the Jazz picks. On...

    i just don't know about this song...

    Good song! My subjective impression/interpretaion of the song was of your honest, vulnerable and sincere reaction to something that has shaken your faith. I could feel intensity in your vocal delivery (at least that was how I felt when listening to it). There are some disonent notes in the...

    Perfect Songs?

    Hallelujah ~ Leonard Cohen (I like Jeff Buckleys version) Hotel California ~ Eagles (along with Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen, made me want to play guitar :) Interesting lyrics; surely both these songs have a 'perfect' musical arrangement ~ what more could be done to improve them? Eleanor Rigby ~...

    Syncing 2 Boss DAW's

    Hey there Cellar_door, I've used a BR8 and a BR1180 synched to Boss drum machine ~ no problems. I currently have a BR1600CD but havent needed to use its sync function. I expect you can sync the 1180 and the 1600 but you would end up with a stereo mix from each machine that would have to go...

Hey there analog_freak, I've got a BR1600CD and have found the cut & paste, copy, insert, move etc functions really good using the 'scub' function and...

    Effing Elixirs! :mad:

    Hey there marshall409, these postings cover the issue of string breakages so regarding other string brands there are of course the D'addario EXP's (I heard from a D'addario distributor that they are contracted to make the Elixirs but then took the Elixir concept and improved on it ~ I dont know...

    trying to work out some chords to these triads

    You'll have to excuse my ignorance, but how do you make a 'soundclick'? I'm new to using a computer for music applications (got my first ever decent spec'd computer 2 months ago ~ so I guess its obsolete by now :rolleyes: ). Current priorities are finishing songs in my BR1600CD then transfering...

    Vocal EQ on BR-900 CD

    Hey there gjackson, what mic are you using? The mic can make a big difference. A good condensor will be best but then again if you find a dynamic mic that suits your voice then use it. It can be frustrating trying to fix the eq if the original recording is not quite right. I was using an AKG...

    Fender jaguar baritone??

    ESP are/were doing at least one baritone model but I cant think of the model name/number. There was a Jackson signature model too but sorry I cant think of its model name either. These models were aimed at the metal players. Try their websites. If you ever want to go acoustic baritone, Tacoma...

    trying to work out some chords to these triads

    Thanks Beagle ~ I'm brushing up on my theory :o . I looked at it as fitting the 4 note cord shape of the dim with root note on 3rd fret A string, then 4th fret on D, 2nd fret on G, 4th on B (C, F#, A, D#). I was thinking visually and looking for other cord and scale shapes that could tie in...
