    Designing CD Covers

    I would probably use Photoshop and PageMaker. Nothing else will cut it for me...but if you wanna go cheap, try the program that comes with Nero - burning ROM or a similar product. Isaiah

    Need advice on choosing a kit

    Yo, I'm looking for an affordable ( preferably under $500 ) drum kit with at least two toms, two cymbals and a hi-hat...pretty basic/standard stuff. Anyway, I've seen some rather affordable kits from a company called TKO, but I am always suspicious of products which have an extraordinarily low...

    Newbe and need equipment

    I've heard groups with 6 or more members, each individually mic'ed and it sounds incredible. How can you say that it won't sound right? An alternative might be to use 2 mics for a stereo pair, and just do it that way...you can get good results from that. Isaiah

    Newbe and need equipment

    This can be very simple and you can get great results with minimal equipment. I recorded a 4 member group for a Christmas album project and it turned out really well, regardless of the cheap equipment I used. What I'd do is this: Try to find a used 12 channel mixer on eBay. Mackie is...

    Equipment List

    Sorry to be off-topic...I just thought it was interesting to see the name "DrummerRyan," because my friend Ryan who lives about a mile from me plays the drums...in fact, he's started teaching me. Now I wanna buy a kit, but I am too poor. :p I'll have to find a real job soon. Isaiah

    Is there such a thing as an affordable Strat?

    OUCH! .......................damn, I feel stupid. The Gibson prices are really up there. Would anyone recommend one of the fakes? :D Isaiah

    Is there such a thing as an affordable Strat?

    Geez, leave it to a naive dweeb newbie like me to say something stupid. I'll admit I was a little confused as to which ones were "real" or not. Either way, the fake looked and sounded great... but I'm gonna have to take a closer look at the real ones. :p Isaiah

    Is there such a thing as an affordable Strat?

    You guys aren't gonna believe this, but I've just taken a sudden liking to the Les Paul Standard Epiphone guitars. My friend had a fake, but I don't understand why you'd want a fake when the real thing can be had for $350-$500 new. Anyway, I'm going for price here, and damn-it but the Les Paul...

    Suggestions for Bass Micing

    If you want to buy an AT3525, don't go to Musician's Friend. I have had bad experiences with them...really cheap and crummy way to do business. 8th Street Music is selling the AT3525 for $150. www.8thstreet.com Isaiah

    Is there such a thing as an affordable Strat?

    I am leaning towards the mid-priced used models...and I have to admit there's a wee bit of an ego thing going on inside my brain, owing to the fact that my heart is set on a real Strat and not a substitute. Perhaps when I have gained more experience, I can make a better informed decision on the...

    Looking for good $5.00 mic

    Ha! I once built one from a tin can and some construction paper. Much more solid than a starbucks cup, and it had more of that "warm," "vintage" sound that you find in mics costing millions of dollars more! Isaiah

    recording choir with sountrack accompaniment

    Headphones, maybe...but personally I wouldn't do it, for a few reasons: 1. Since it's a choir, then you're gonna need a lot of pairs of headphones. Hardly conventional... 2. Even with headphones on, it is likely that they will be able to hear the actual performance coming through. The...

    Heh...thanks. Like I said, I've been up a while and my brain isn't paying very good attention. :p Isaiah

    Is there such a thing as an affordable Strat?

    Thanks for all the replies, guys... Bongolation - Your post seemed very wise, but somehow I feel like I have missed any obvious conclusions or suggestions. (Maybe that's because I've been awake for 20 hours and have had an insane day) Is there anything in specific which you would recommend? I...

    Is there such a thing as an affordable Strat?

    Hmm...I was hoping for more in the $200-$300 range. If I had $700 to spend, I'd rather save it for a nice Martin acoustic. Isaiah

    Is there such a thing as an affordable Strat?

    I'll trust that even a used Strat will stand the test of time? 'Cause my heart is set on owning a good ol' Fender. :D Isaiah
