Alright cool man. So what is a VSTi? And can you suggest any software that happens to have quality sounds (preferably free, but I am willing to pay if it is worth it). Also, I have done some research on EZ Drummer before, but what I mostly find is that people say that it is difficult to use if...

Hey! I have been on and off here for a while, but it has been a while since my last post. Anyway, I had a very broad question, and I'm looking for any and all help that you may offer. I realized my music is lacking because I don't have the capabilities to play the instruments I want to (horns...

Yeah those were kinda my thoughts too. Thanks for the input man, its much appreciated

I have pretty much the same setup. Are you going direct in to your fast trak, or micing the amp? I go DI and it seems to work pretty well, but try knocking back on the volume on your bass, and using a shorter/better cable and that might help it. If the bass is too quiet, you can probably pump it...

Hey, so I have the opportunity to buy a Guild X160 Rockabilly Hollowbody (orange finish) from a dude off of craigslist, and I played it today and it felt really good. I've been wanting a 24 3/4 scale (small hands) hollowbody for way too long, and had my heart set on a Heritage H575, but this...

Cool thanks for your help man!

I don't play heavy stuff, so this might not be as relevant, but I find that the best, most natural tone for a guitar is achieved with as few pedals, and signal processors as possible. Obviously a few are ok, but when people go overboard it tends to make the guitar sound tinny and just kind of...

Hey, so I have been recording now for quite sometime and it is going pretty well, but one thing that I have noticed is that a lot of times the lower pitches of a chord get a touch muddy on the tracks (live as well, but it is more noticeable on the recordings.) Like when I play an Emaj7 and...

Hey so I have some audio that I would like to export out of pro tools onto Itunes and then onto a CD. Two questions: How is this done (would I use the "Export" choice or "Send via DigiDelivery" under file? Or some thing else?) And once I export a recording, can I still have the file in protools...

O ok, thanks guys. So I just select the aux track (By clicking on its name?) and then I should be able to affect the reverb as a whole?

Hey so I wanted to add reverb to my drum tracks (which are 5 separate tracks of kick, snare, hat, ride, tom) to get them to sound far out back in the "room", and I looked up on here reverb busses, but I don't understand how to use them. If I send them all to an auxiliary "drum" track for volume...

Yeah thats the correct song, but for some reason on the album version, the vocals have this strange effect on them - not unlike in the video, but a little less transparency, and a lot more presence (at least on the vocal track itself - not necessarily in the whole mix). I can only describe is as...

I just got the behringer 1030a's and I have maybe a 12x10 foot spot for my studio (sorry, don't know it in meters :)). People here will tell you the behringer sucks, but I gotta say the 1030a's blew me away, great response, no fatiguing, balanced bass and treble, great clarity. And they have a...

I posted this under vocals a couple days ago, but no responses, so Ill try it here. Hey, So i am getting into the vocal phase of recording some pieces, and I am trying to get a rich tone in the recording. My voice is ok - it is on pitch, tonally full and resonant, but Im not Bocelli. Anyway...

Hey, So i am getting into the vocal phase of recording some pieces, and I am trying to get a rich tone in the recording. My voice is ok - it is on pitch, tonally full and resonant, but Im not Bocelli. Anyway, There are specific vocal tracks on songs that I really like, and despite not being sung...

Hey Guys a couple of weeks ago I posted a thread about opinions on getting either Mackie MR5 's or Behringer 1030A 's. Well it turned out to be a cluster fuck of advice and brand loyalty issues, and after reading it and many many other reviews on the internet - I went with the Behringers (put...

Boulder your a genius! Thanks for the help man - I finally got it working.

Ya sorry I didn't know how to make it bigger. If you zoom in you can see it a bit more - the fader to the right is snare 3 not AUX, so its not the fader, I promise, there is no signal. So instead of Send to Bus 1-2, I would put the output to Bus1-2? The input on AUX to bus 1-2 as well? Thanks

No the faders not down - theres just no signal going into it. Thanks for your help though

Haha Touche. Ok here it is - you can only see the hat, snare and cymbal track, but there is a kick and tom above it. At the bottom is the AUX track (which is in stereo). The sends on the drums say "Bus 1-2) (I sent it to "Bus 1-2 Stereo") and the output of the AUX is "Built-InOutput 1-2" which...
