I am Scrub Boy.... I think I use the scrub utility on my VF160 more than anything else. Whenever I record anything (guitar, vocal, whatever), I always scrub right up to the starting point and erase, then do the same at the end point. It keeps everything clean. It's a bit time consuming but...

Cool Info... Thanks for the info JJ - that's a cool bit of research. I might put this to good use...! Dave.

Ahh... I see, ok I must admit, I don't know how to copy the Scene Memory from one Program to another. I'm guessing there's no easy way, you're gonna have to re-do all the scene params for each program. Which is kinda sucky. Sorry - I wasn't much help there was I, you couls always try Fostex...

Programs...! I've had the 160 for quite a while now (it rules by the way). Ok, I have a new Program for each song I record. Then when I do an Internal Mix Down, it creates another new Program for me. So basically 2 Programs for each song, and if I want to back up onto CD I just back up the...

Live Sound You've got a very "live" sound going on there. I'm liking the coffee-can snare drum, but I think the cymbals are just swishing over the top of everything. I agree with Wireneck, there needs to be more guitar there... But I liked the track, very cool - good job! Dave.

I use a Red 5 Audio RVK7 drum mic kit. That's two overheads, snare, three toms and one outside the front skin of the bass. I also have a cheapish old tannoy mic that I place just above the beaters on the bass drum, I call this my click mic. The Red 5 Audios are cheap as chips but perform...

Hmmm... I'm a big fan of Edrums (I own a DTX), but having worked with both Ekits and acoustics, I'd say you can't beat a well recorded acoustic kit (the cymbal thing goes without saying). But, it's bloody tricky nailing the sound you want and it takes a lot of practice. I liked your mixes...

Great Track...! Sounds great, I'm from the heavier end of the scale so I would have probably gone for a beefy, yet soulful guitar solo, coming in with the rest of the band somewhere in the middle. It seemed to need to go somewhere. Having said that it is a really nice song, with nice lyrics...

Negatives....negatives... I wouldn't mind betting that most of the negative posts here come from drummers who have little experience with modern Ekits. I have a Yamaha DTX as well as an acoustic and, although I prefer to record with my acoustics (I play hard rock bordering on thrash metal) I...

The VF160 Rules...! If you want to set up a nice little home recording environment - the 160 will do more or less all you want, and it is well priced...! http://artists.mp3s.com/artists/559/ware.html Dave.

Cheers Thanks for taking the time to listen. I didn't know MP3.COM was shunned, I saw it as a free way to get another 3 songs worth of web space. Dave.

Guys, I finally got round to set up an MP3.COM Artist Area for my work. Check it out if you have time. All my stuff is recorded on my Fostex VF160. WARE - MP3 Artist Site Dave.

Um... here I am. Having said that - I've never used a vf16 so I can't make comparisons. If you go HERE there's a download at the bottom of the page. I never bothered though. Hear my sounds created with the VF160 here Dave.

Err.... Ooops, this was supposed to be a reply to... This Thread Doh...! Dave.

Thanks again for all the comments - all points noted...! It gets real tough to step away and listen to something with new ears. I do try to leave my songs for a week or so before going back to mix. That's why it's great to get you guys in here to give me some pointers. Cheers again, Dave.

Hey, Axe4Yahweh - I went and had a listen to your stuff. You got some major Blues happening there, It's not really my genre, so I may be way out - but I'm hearing a lot of Cream. Your guitar playing has a real relaxed feel to it, you play the blues effortlessly - it sounds great. As for the...

THanks for the reply Thanks for listening. The guitars are direct inputs. It's not a really heavy track, so I didn't meat up the guitars too much. As I said it's my first attampt at recording drums. I was pretty pleased with the results. I actually like the crisp cymbals, they really cut...
