Cool article. It really supports the notion of how hard it is to create a convincing programmed drum part.

Being that this is a Home Recording site, I'd think that visual aesthetic would mean very little and Home Recording connotes music being made and tracked in the confines of basement/bedroom studios. Given this demographic and dynamic, tools, such as the POD and the Variax would seem of...

Sorry to ressurect an old thread... I just got one of these and it is indeed great. I am thinking of going with more "pro" pups though. Any thoughts on the Rio Grandes or Seymour Duncan p-90s? Thanks, J

And the verdict for mixing in cans because you really can't do it with near-fields, etc.?

I'll give three here: Joe Lally - Fugazi (tone, solid playing and tone) Patrick Dalheimer - Live (knows about doing the bottom end, compliments his drummer) Peter Hook - Joy Division, New Order (bass as lead) Oops, forgot: John Norwood Fisher - Fishbone (just listen to him... you'll know)

This biggest thing I don't get is that this is a forum for HOME RECORDING. As such, when clever and useful solutions like Line 6 comes along why do other bag on it? Yes, we ALL KNOW that vintage guit -> tube is Nirvana, but most home recordists just can't swing with this due to: -cost -space...

Thanks for the replies so far - I should have correctly said "rosewood fingerboard" in my initial post, but I see that you've figured out that's what I meant by "neck." Thanks, J

Light, I appreciate your reply regarding the improved safety of keeping an instrument in it's case, but a guitar on the wall seems fairly safe from collision. Do you mean safety with respect to environmental threats? J

Hello, I have a rosewood neck on two of my quitars and now on my new pride-and-joy, my Music Man StingRay bass. I've only recently begun to own rosewood-necked instruments. Is there any additional care this wood requires? I've heard about lemon oil, is that good to use? If so, how...

Duck folks, the cock waving is getting heavy in here. These threads and arguments are pointless. There will never be a gold standard for what constitues a good player. If we don't know what a good player is, then we have no basis for over- or under-rated. full stop. If technique junkie is...

what I've learned about GC is: "name your price and walk the hell out if they don't play ball." Now, something crazy is obviously not possible (like half off), but I always get things knocked down by a hundred or so, you did alright. The trick to G.A.S.ing is to not let the GAS throw your...

This is an interesting background about Robert Fripp's progression as an artist. http://www.progressiveears.com/frippbook/contents.htm

One of the best days of my life was when I got off the "muso" chain-gang and just pursued music (and instruments that make music) according to what moves me. When I heard a style that moved me that required an advance in my technique, I'd certainly give it my best shot. This is why I can hear...

Here it is. Not the best photo, but a quick view.

OH MY GOD... OH MY GOD... OH MY GOD!!! It has arrived and I am speechless. I'll post pictures soon. I must admit, I am beside myself with joy that, for once, I didn't cheap out; I got the "good stuff!" The quality of workmanship and the beauty of a new specimen in the "trim" I got mine in is...

Dude, I hear you. I suppose I should have mentioned that I work full time teaching at a college as well as working towards my PhD. However, your point is well taken; Lately, I've had a little voice in my head that's being saying exactly what you are.

Absolutely NOT! I couldn't these days either (damn getting old!). I wish I could have owned stock in hair-care products back then.

Well, Here it is, 6 months later and I've bitten the bullet. One 2005 Honeyburst/Rosewood StingRay on the way!

Run a "JB" version Western Digital drive off of the regular IDE channel.

There was nothing "non-actual" about my reply. I suppose a more precise query like: "Can you tell me how to pirate and cheat my way into free use of Cubase SX3" would have achieved a clearer answer.
