    YOUR best guitar?

    Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. My stands all say "Ultimate" on them but after seeing those pictures I no longer they're close to the "Ultimate" stand. But I agree, that one looks pretty expensive. I mentioned my Lakland 55-02 earlier in this thread and completely forgot about my '83 or...

    YOUR best guitar?

    Don't have many, but out of two acoustics, an electric, and two basses it would have to be my Lakland 55-02. EDIT - I forgot I changed my avatar to be the Lakland a few months ago. That's it.

    Buying Guitars Mail-order or On-line, do ya?

    I bought one online for the first time at the end of January. I was a little nervous about buying a bass I never played before, but since I buying a nice instrument (Lakland 55-02) from a well known store (Bass Central) I was willing to try it. My experience was pretty good. I phoned and...

    Recording songs in parts

    My friend that I'm recording with has been doing more of the recording at his house lately and he got me started with this. He will basically use two tracks to handle one "virtual track" - one track to handle the first part until a logical breaking point, then use the second real track for the...

    Ibanez Destroyer Stand

    Not sure what your needs are. If you're talking about simply for use at home (or any one single loation), there's always the wall hangar: Wall Hangar If you want a stand you can take with you, this looks like it will do the job. I have a Jazz bass and it just doesn't sit well in a standard...

    Best method to record distorted guitar...

    Another thing I've heard for a long time and have finally learned on my own recently is to actually use less distortion than you think you want. What sounds really cool soloed can often muddy things up when you mixdown.

    Good price/performance bass heads?

    For the most part Avatar has a pretty good reputation and is generally accepted as a good buy for cabinets - good performance, great price. I'm considering buying a bigger bass amp and am wondering what a comparable buy in a bass head, or even straight power amp, would be. As far as...

    different guitars......same track

    Using two guitars, or even more, on a single song is a great idea if you have access to them. The differences in their sounds means you have to do less processing to make each stand out when mixing down. From a recording point of view that's a very good thing. Maybe the song point of view...

    I re-install my pc o/s a lot - does ntrack licensing let you just pop in a code?

    I'll second that. I misplaced mine the last time i re-installed and he got back to me in a day or so with my code. I have since taken the "backup CD" approach so I don't have to worry about this anymore.

    question on recording Bass guitar with a Direct Box

    Sansamp Bass Driver! If you do a search on the Sansamp you'll get back loads of posts praising it. To be fair, you'll also get back some saying it's not what that user wanted, but from what I've seen the reviews have been overwhelmingly positive. I've been using one for almost two years and...

    Whats your favorite SOLO???

    I agree with so many that have already been posted. I saw a few Allman Brothers songs but i don't think anyone mentioned Jessica yet. God, I love that one.

    Do you really buy that expensive recording software?

    At least you do agree that it's worth paying for, Avatuar9. Still, you have to realize that the manufacturer priced their software based on what it cost to develop and market. Programmers salaries, office staff, office space, utility bills, security guards, cleaning crew, shipping costs...

    Do you really buy that expensive recording software?

    Allowing a software manufacturer to continue as a going concern, and therefore provide it's employees with a way to earn (note the deliberate use of the word *EARN*) a living is social disorder and thinking the wrong way?!?!?! WTF?!?!?! :confused: :confused: :confused: Why do you...

    Do you really buy that expensive recording software?

    You can tell a let about the kind of man someone is when you see how he behaves when he "knows" he won't get caught and also by the way he treats someone who do neither nothing to or for him. I'm not the one saying anything about you, I'm just pointing it out. You're the one who's speaking...

    Do you really buy that expensive recording software?

    Why is your argument weak? It's weak beacuse your statement implies that it cost Cakewalk $400 to create SONAR so once they've sold the first copy they made their money back and it's all profit. You've clearly shown you don't understand what it means or be in and stay in business. Cakewalk...

    Layla24 not showing up in Sound/Audio Devices?

    My bad. Sorry Booda. Yes, it does make sense you should be able to play system sounds, MP3s, etc. through it. I still have my old SoundBlaster card in mine and can use either (but I just use my Delta for everything and the SB will just be for MIDI once I start down that path).

    Layla24 not showing up in Sound/Audio Devices?

    I had a similar problem with my Delta 66 card. I thought that was might odd because I was recording just fine one night, but when I went back to recording the next night Windows and SONAR denied my Delta existed. Even uninstalling and re-installing the Delta driver failed - it told me there...

    My Delta 66 disappeared!

    You know, I didn't *have* to come clean ... :D WTF, I may as well get in on the act too ... "How many times do I have to tell you? I am *NOT* running under windows?!?! The computer is on an inside wall and there's no such thing as a window on an inside wall!" I actually don't hear that one...

    My Delta 66 disappeared!

    Great, you had to rub it in with that kind of analogy. I AM a computer tech support guy ... :D :o :eek: :p Dave O.
