    a new fun website, www.freecompose.com

    I had thought about posting mp3s of the progress but decided against it for a few reasons. first of all it would be totally irregular. Sometimes I do most of the work on one or two days or sometimes a little bit each day, whenever I can find time. It would be a messy situation. Plus to be...

    Preamp for Rode NTK?

    I'm using mine with an RNP and I think it sounds pretty great. I must admit its a bit sharp sounding on the high end, you kinda have to cut down some of those frequencies depending on the voice.

    Don't Believe The Hype

    I have to admit I do get a little frustrated when some guy with reason, with its perfectly compressed and eq'd samples, makes this beat and riff, basically by random cutting and pasting, that sounds pretty decent, then you ask him what a compressor is and the answer is a confused look and a...

    Studio monitor adivce, please.

    even though I can't stand krk, the v4's are a decent option if you want to save space. otherwise, for $100 more, the tr8xl by event are fantastic for that price. And I guarrantee if you walk into a guitar center and say you'll by these if they give them to you for 500, they will do it. i...

    Digital Piano a LONG way off from realism

    I think one of the problems also isnt' just the quality of the samples, but how we are hearing them. When you play an acoustic piano the sound you hear is the strings vibrating with the color and reflections of the wood. When you play a digital piano you hear sound coming out of a speaker cone...

    Propellorhead rdk? which drum samples are the best

    yeah its ridiculous how many there are, I'm trying to narrow it down a bit and weed out the ones that arn't worth it. have you used any that you mentioned? Any opinions? RDK seems really interesting, with how many samples they have at different velocities. It can be annoying when most drum...

    I'd like to get my hands on some nice acoustic drum samples. What are some of the best out there? I've been looking at Propellorhead's RDK 2.0 and it seems pretty impressive. Does anyone have any other opinions? thanks

    Monitors to match room size?

    generally you want smaller monitors in a smaller room because bass from large woofers will bounce to much in a smaller room, and a small woofer in a big room you won't hear the bass much at all. it also depends on the type of music your making and also if you have any acoustic treatment in the room

    Logic 7 tutorials

    often times there are tips and tricks in a program that the manual doesn't mention, or that you would have to read the entire manual to find. for instance in logic, like i was saying, in the manual there was no place that states any hot-keys for the tools, however that might not mean that no...

    Logic 7 tutorials

    i've found the manual difficult to deal with, and i can't find specific help. anyone know if there are hotkeys for the toolbar? i can't stand having to go click on the velocity tool whenever I want to change the velocity of a note? also, manuals don't really explain much on how a product is...

    Logic 7 tutorials

    anyone know of a good online tutorial site for logic 7? this thing is foreign to me. I'm so used to dp and pro tools and i can hardly believe how different logic is. free tutorials would be optimal, or a really cheap book or dvd.

    Hardware Compressor vs. Software Compressor

    i should also say this about hardware vs. software compressors. i could honestly never really tell much of a difference for quite some time when I was using software compressors. I mean, all i could tell that the softer parts were louder, but thats it! now with my rnc It just makes such a...
