    I don't pay $2-300. I get my dotcom's for $20 each through http://www.reserveme.com Reserveme has a redirecting service as part of the deal, where you can redirect your dotcom to whatever website you have your stuff at. If you can find some free webspace somewhere... without a banner ad...

    Vocal Trap

    I had an idea. Have you ever thought about getting a room divider (those decorative things that people have... usually with oriental designs)? Most of the ones I've seen are have three panels... I would take off the third one. And of course, it would have to be high enough... 6-7 feet. I...

    Vocal Trap

    That's gotta be why I couldn't hear more of a difference. I felt the one without the trap sounded pretty good to begin with. Since writing above, I've seen your other thread with your V shaped creation... and that one looks like something that could be more effective. I'm mulling over what...

    Vocal Trap

    Great job on the building... very ingenious and creative solution. Great pics by the young'n also! :) I did hear a more "dry" sound with the trap. Honestly, I was expecting more of a difference. In listening, I pretty much focused on the vocalist's performance. It was well-recorded to...

    'MAKING IT BIG' or not?

    Saturday night, and we're talking shop. Isn't that funny? That says good things about how important this stuff is to us, doesn't it? After this, I'm gonna fire up the preamp and the 003... and write a rock song.:D I agree that most of what they have is the commercial stuff. They've gotta...

    AD/DA Converter

    I was on the Apogee website.. and on the Rosetta 800 page, it seems to imply that (among other systems), it may only work with Pro Tools HD. Is it even possible to use it with a 003 (is that what you have?) if you get it? If not, then that's a no-go. I saw the prices for the Black Lion mod...

    AD/DA Converter

    Yeah, you got it right, Jorock... you need another preamp... not the Digi one. It is a big firewire dongle, but you need this dongle to use that EVERY STUDIO HAS IT PT software! My bro set it up for me, and I'm not 100% on how he did it, but here's what I know: I'm using the 003, a Summit...

    'MAKING IT BIG' or not?

    Great, Erock... thanks for the links. You really should have those links on your signature... I would have checked them out by now! I'll definitely hear them. Your compositions seemed really well done, and accomplished. I enjoyed the WWF one... I could almost see those huge guys walking out...

    Recording Bass guitar: mic vs direct

    I've recorded my bass going direct into my SUMMIT AUDIO preamp and gotten a good sound. I've also recorded using a SansAmp Bass Driver DI.... going into the SUMMIT AUDIO... and I liked it even better. I think both methods are fine as long as you tweak the sounds.... take some time doing...

    'MAKING IT BIG' or not?

    Dude: You have released two free albums? Where are they? I checked your website, and they are not there. I heard your two snippets, and they sounded very good. They are instrumental music cues.... designed for film or television. But you are not qualified to tell me my music wouldn't...

    'MAKING IT BIG' or not?

    PUTTING MUSIC OUT FOR FREE ON A WEBSITE, YOU MAKE MONEY ON THE ADS: The only problem with this is... the costs involved in getting the word out. Of course, you would have to map out where you will advertise... strategically hit the places where the people that would like your music go... both...

    Recording Acoustic For good Stereo sound

    The tracks I've written that featured acoustic guitars haven't been at fast tempos, and they haven't featured intense strumming, to be honest. But I think that what you feel is sloppy (those variations) is the stuff that I actually LIKE! When I first started doubling my vocal and guitar...

    Recording Acoustic For good Stereo sound

    I wouldn't place a mike near the neck of the guitar... that's just me. If I were mic'ing using two mikes... then I would always have one 4-5 inches from the soundhole, and another maybe 3-4 feet away (in front) for ambience. You could also experiment using baffles, or record yourself playing...

    Recording Acoustic For good Stereo sound

    I would do it this way: Record one acoustic track with the mike about 4-5 inches from the soundhole (I use an Audio-Technica AT-4040, but you can use whatever you have). Make sure the signal is not too hot... that you're not recording the guitar too loud. Pan this track hard left. Record...

    AD/DA Converter

    Another thing... using better converters is better all around for your mic preamps. I'm currently using a Summit Audio 2BA-221 preamp for my vocals, bass, and (of course) guitars... and now with the better converters, I'm hearing what it REALLY sounds like without the 003's converters coloring...

    AD/DA Converter

    I was recently schooled on just this thing, and so I'll pass on what little I know to you! I have a 003 Rack I bought when it first came out... about a little over a year ago. Previously, I had had the 001. The 001 was great, but I did notice that the converters on the 003 were BETTER. My...

    Help with sucky vocals

    Well, I took an interest in this thread because I used to think the same thing sometimes about my own voice. With more experience under my belt, I don't think that anymore. I'm familiar with my voice now to the point where I can damn well tell if I'm singing something I'm not meant to sing...

    'MAKING IT BIG' or not?

    Good point. What we are looking for DOESN'T EXIST. We are looking for a place (a website? record company? community?) that will, arguably, help separate the wheat from the chaff, but not only strategically focus on teenybopper marketing. One that focuses on good music. I would give anything...

    I still wouldn't buy one, but this is impressive

    Ahh, well, I guess I don't really know how that stuff works, then. I thought I could add rep to someone's posts that I enjoyed, and it would add to his/her rep. I didn't know my lack of any rep would inhibit my ability to do that. Sorry about that!

    new recording amp

    Hey, that sounded pretty nice to me. Kind of made me remember that Jimmy Page used a lot of smaller amps when recording many of his classic LED ZEPPELIN songs. Great job!
