I'm gonna jack this thread for a sec. What if one wanted to record a cover, but just give the recording away? I hope not. Seal has plenty of money. ...you can have your thread back now

Sorry Rami:D I spend a lot of time on your site, but never really pay attention to song titles.

Cool tune. I'm not qualified to comment on the production value, but I'll say everything sounds pretty good to me except the snare. Don't take this as a dig, but it sounds like it could stand to be tuned better. Too rattley(I made that word up, I think) for my tastes. Makes it sound like a...

I've listened to this like 10 times now, and it still cracks me up. Awesome! I think the only thing I've listened to more on here is one of Rami's tunes(I forget the name). You guys should collab. on something

I've heard it mentioned more than a few times now. Are Ricks not a quality guitar? Never played one myself, but damn they look cool...except that sawed-off one up top

I don't care for the Ramones, but being able to chat it up about production must've been AWESOME!

hope you do:) ...and hopefully, I'll give you both a little competition........................next time EDIT: as long as we're not being judged on recording quality, that is:D

they do this on purpose

not if you know what your music is supposed to sound like

to quote Mark McGrath of Sugar Ray fame; "...for a million bucks, I'll play anything you want..." ...or something like that. either way, I'm a poseur/poser

Good to know. Hope I haven't screwed anything up yet

To be clear, sometimes it's necessary to have my head close by, while the cab is on the other side of the room/stage, in which case I use any random 20' cable that happens to be lying around. Usually an instrument cable. If an instrument cable is different from a speaker cable, I was unaware...

Sooooo..... ...howzabout those ceiling traps?

Really?! I bet that's where the amp hum is coming from during practice. It's not there when I play solo(ie when there aren't lots of cables on the floor)

Outside of an arena setting, I've wondered why anyone would EVER need a full stack.

Sell your set up and buy something nice. In my practice space, we use a 1000 watt(I think) PA into two 400 watt speakers and still have trouble hearing the vocals. You get what you pay for in this biz

"Moving the microphone is the least amount of pain with the most payoff." Wise words

image doesn't mean anything. the look on peoples faces when they comment on 'that awesome tone' and I point to my ValveJr and SG. plus, I'm off stage in the amount of time it takes to wrap up a couple cables and close the guitar case. 5 minutes, tops. and no hernia

I could be wrong on this, but I think any (properly shielded)speaker cable under roughly 20' has little to zero noticable effect on audio quality. I never noticed this except maybe with insanely big budget rock bands, where they can afford to have a tech or 2 back stage setting levels and gains...

that would be a safe bet. the clif notes; tune your drums, know your parts, experiment with mic placement. if I had to guess, EVERYTHING you might read about recording drums would start and finish with this... ...but isn't that true of anything you want to record?
