    Terratec vs. M-Audio

    The Terratec comes with: Gigasampler LE Wavelab Lite Arturia's Storm Fruity Loops Express Emagic's MicroLogic Fun. Which is all very useful, but for recording the guitar such as in mine and Doug's case, then it's not great. Plus i think the fruityloops is only a demo version, correct me if i...

    Terratec vs. M-Audio

    I was torn between the two, but have opted for the audiophile. After reading all there is on this forum about the two, the constant praise of the audiophile, and reading this article, http://www.sospubs.co.uk/sos/apr01/articles/soundcard.asp I came to the conclusion that instead of having to...

    line6 pod

    I was going to invest in a POD myself, but after numerous occasions of trying out the POD the J-Station and the V-amp i decided to save my penny's and go with the j-station. It's a great little box, does everything, i would say it is up right next to the POD, but it has a lot less price. You can...

    Just how bad are you?

    I can play solo's fairly well and most other styles of play, i can pick pretty fast, but all in all when i wake up on the wrong side of the guitar, i can play awful! Need work on my pinky, it's still a wee baby, and i could do with improving in accuracy! But as we all are, I am improving every...

    New Guitar

    I had a Squier when i very first started, i loved it, although the pickups were alittle risky. But still it was a great guitar for me. As for the price range charger has stated, me being a UK man, then i would probably agree to go for a pacifica. But only cos i am out numbered. LoL aL
