    Compute Speak

    These things are often the most overlooked items. Noise suppression is very important, as you will quickly discover once you get out your condensors ... Good idea, however, be aware that 10K RPM drives can be VERY loud. You can buy 5 1/4 inch insulated slot mounts that will suppress their...

    How much did you pay for your most expensive axe?

    Oh, c'mon. I think it would be cool. I'd probably hate you, but I still think it would be cool ! :D :cool: :D

    Something Else Vintage!??!

    In public and high schools in the 70's there was a lot of educational stuff you could order for these things. Teachers would get them in for a week at a time. Think of it as the hardware version of Powerpoint. ;) (or any other presentation/slide show software) I seem to recall falling asleep...

    Godin LGX-SA - CAD$1400 Ibanez GB-10 (George Benson) - YEN90,000 (sold for CAD1400 to buy the Godin ... :D ) Had some deals in the past - my '71 D-35, I got for CAD650 in 1981. '76 Tele for CAD425 (in 1978). New EDA900 Bass very recently for KRW530,000 (about US440). And they are all...

    does anyone know, where can i find multi-track recording examples, from rock groups ?

    It had to deal with "public mix" Have a look here: https://homerecording.com/bbs/showthread.php?t=128192 And sort through some stuff in the MP3 clinic. Good luck ! Mike

    Got the US-224 but need new Software

    Cubasis is not the most intuitive, but if you work through its learning curve, it's a good piece of software. Unfortunately, as it is bundled, the pdf manual sucks, and there is no hard copy. You may find yourself getting into problems that you can't easily resolve. Lots of people around...

    I'm not gay

    I had a fluorescent pink BC Rich Bich for a few years. :eek: Would've looked cool with pink strings. And yes, I was (am) secure in my masculinity ... :cool:

    Testing a mixer

    Threw a note in the cave about this - did buy it, started to test it, all the inputs work great. But the damn wife decided to have a baby, so the rest of the test is on hold ... :rolleyes: By the by - I bought it for approx 155 USD as of yesterday's exchange rate.... :cool:

    Testing a mixer

    Thanks, boingoman - good idea ! I have an SPX90 I can use for that (I just hope he's got 110V power - maybe I'll have to take a xfmr too ...) I'll just make sure the input is down when checking the main outs. Tks. Hope I get this thing, I've just realized it's cheaper than I thought ...

    Testing a mixer

    Wondering the best way to test a mixer if all the seller has available is the mixer itself. :rolleyes: If I bring a set of headphones, a mic, and possibly a line level device (portable cd player), at least I could check all the inputs, correct ? Any other thoughts ? Any quick way to check...

    MIDI Sucks!

    Ibanez Noodles Signature

    No opinions on the model, but I have owned a GB100 as well as currently owning a EDA900 bass, and I have been very happy with the quality and playability of both. Also to mention that I saw Offspring last night, and through Noodles hands, the guitar sounded great ! :D

    Enter the world of guitar synths!!!

    Well, the 13 pin jack is not MIDI - it is a proprietary format used by Roland (and as far as I know a couple others - Axxon ?). This will connect to a Roland GR series synth (or midi controller), and will allow you to send MIDI from there if you so desire. It's really up to you for what you use...

    Enter the world of guitar synths!!!

    I used a GK-2A for years with a GR-50 until I got a Godin LGX-SA. Best thing I ever did. Tracking is much less of a problem - I have the ability ( or lack thereof :rolleyes: ) to play less clean than I had to with the GK-2A. Mike

    Roland Synths: Is the GR33 worth the upgrade money from a GR30?

    I'm still using a GR-50 form 1991 or thereabouts, and I see no need to upgrade. I don't think there's going to be an appreciable difference between the 30 and 33. What are you using - a GK-2A ? There are differences in input devices. My Godin is waaaay better than the GK-2A ever was. But I'd...

    Homemade stomp box

    In the guitar cord, both wires are required for signal flow. I'm not sure what you mean by "...but the guitar cord has 2 wires, this has 1." One wire is connected to the tip of the connector (or plug), and may be known as the "hot", while the other is connected to the ring (or the...
