Looking forward to seeing how this turns out. I did something similar not too long ago instead of getting a Furman SPB-8C...I didn't actually build my own board though. I just got a nice big plain board from Rondo, then built my own patchbay and added a Furman power block. Already had a power...

When I say "wider" I'm referring to the amount of panning. So, you then, would recommend micing each guitar with 2 SDCs?

To be honest, not really...But I will take your word for it :p Now, my question is, with 2 guitars, what if I were to keep one on the left side of my image, and one on the right, but keeping both in stereo, with one mic being a tad wider than the other. For instance, something like this...

I recently recorded a song for fun that I ended up deciding to transpose with a capo the next day...Twas lazy and used built in crappy preamps on my crappy interface, but here you go: www.myspace.com/atarmslengthofficial

You make a very good point. I don't understand what you mean. When I say hard pan, I mean putting one track (say mic at the nut) all the way left and the other track (mic at 12th fret) all the way right. Not both to the same side.

Which is why I ask the question in the first place. I don't necessarily want a dense mix. I want what sounds good. I want to know if I'd be better off recording in mono with an LDC since I'd be creating a stereo image by having 2 guitars. I would love to experiment, but I don't own an LDC.

I suppose I should have mentioned that I plan on doing everything individually (each guitar and each vocal), and also only have the ability to record 2 tracks at once. I will be using an Apogee Duet (As soon as my damn tax return gets here >.<) Multitracking is not something I need to be...

My friend and I have been writing as an acoustic duo and I'm getting ready to do some recordings of our stuff. I've done a lot of experimenting with recording a single acoustic and have managed to get some very good sounds (imho), but I'm at a loss when it comes to 2 guitars. The biggest issue...

If you're just looking to support some local bands and make some money off it, I would go about starting a "management company", which is essentially the same thing, but sounds like a more realistic thing to do. Start out with one band. Preferably something small and easy to record, like an...

Steven Wilson of Porcupine Tree (Also produces Opeth) has said he uses the Line 6 Pod in the studio all the time. In an interview he said something along the lines of "I use it to jot down ideas quickly, but sometimes the sound is just good enough to leave as is." Dimebag Darrel and George...

Having priced out the cost of building my own guitar (Parts alone)...I would be spending about $900 without paying for anybody elses labor. And regardless of the fact that many of these guitars are made in bulk by machinary, (on more expensive guitars at least) pickups are handwired, paintjobs...

Fender lover, here. I currently own a Fender MIM Strat, a Fender Deluxe Active Jazz Bass, and am about to purchase a Fender Lite Ash Tele. All white, by the way :)

As soon as my bassist gives me back my bass I'll give it a shot.

I'm in... Message must be longer

Thanks, Gecko :) I love leaving things open to interpretation (hell, I usually don't interpret what I write till after it's written), but allow me to shed some light: You're right about the scenario. It's about me pretty much trying to drink my problems away, driving, wrecking, and having an...

Same price here. $550 like always.

I'm empty inside So why do I feel so satisfied? Is it the fact that I'm an idiot, or just thankful to be alive? Something is giving me hope Maybe I'm just happy the earth still revolves Maybe I just like being alone I can't remember why It ended up this way But thank god I'm alive 'Cause my...

I think what he means to say is "pounds your ass"...'cause they're gay. :o

Can't find a good video of it but I Won't Be Home For Christmas by Blink 182 is a good one.

That's like saying a little leaguer can't call himself a baseball player because the guys in the MLB have "spent years learning their craft" Who really cares, honestly? What someone calls themselves shouldn't bother you.
