    Line out or Preamp out?

    I would use the line out. i think the preamp out in your case has a different use...i believe it is used to connect to another amps: power amp in, but i might be wrong on that one. the headphone out is also a line level signal and could be used for recording, but why use that when there is...

    Shopping for monitors. - Any suggestions?

    I was wondering why you guys believe that a sub is not a good idea for home recorders? It is that you don't believe that most people will adjust the level of the sub correctly, or set the crossover point right or something like the walls will rattle too much? I was thinking I would eventually...

    3 vs840 questions

    Question 1) As far as stereo bouncing tracks: you can do this with any of the vs recorders and keep the original tracks. The vs 840 will bounce 6 tracks to 2. If you don't like the bounce then try it again with the original tracks. Only problem is that the 840 has limited space. Even had some...

    Please help: Urgent purchase required: need advice...

    The AKG c1000s are good since they make decent over-head mics for drums (if you plan to eventually buy another one). You can also use a 9V battery for these mics (no phantom power needed), but you may eventually want to buy a preamp with phantom power for it later. The Rode NT1 is a great mic...

    Loudness of biamplified vs non-biamplified monitors

    Actually the amps that I am referring to are all internal. So the question rephrased assuming all internal amps: Will monitors that use an active crossover (biamped with 70W+30W) output a higher SPL than monitors that use a passive crossover (non-biamped with 100W)? If higher or lower, how much?

    Loudness of biamplified vs non-biamplified monitors

    I am a bit confused about the actual loudness of biamplified monitors vs non-biamped monitors. For example lets say I have two monitors that are a similar shape like the event 20/20p and the event PS8 (both have 8" woofers and similar cabinet size). The PS8's are biamplified with 70W to the...

    RECORDING HEAVY GUITARS

    Scratch, What do you mean when you say "i made more pan?" Just to make sure that we are on the same level: when you record the "doubled" guitars, you need to record one take first one one track then record another take (played the same) on a separate track. So when you get to mixing you pan them...

    Recording bass direct using insert effects

    I have a vs840 and I was thinking about upgrading to the 840ex. One of the reasons for the upgrade would be for the bass modeling (i think that's what they call it). I have been previously a bit dissatisfied with my direct recorded bass so I was wondering if anyone has used the bass inserts...

    What is the purpose of a mic preamp?

    Just so that you are not confused... Without a preamp you will not be able to record with a mic. Most low budget recorders come with built in preamps. For example any 4-track recorder will have a mic preamp (or usually 4 mic preamps). The preamp is usually controlled by the first nob in the...

    RECORDING HEAVY GUITARS

    I can't give you much advice about what amps to use since i only have experience with my Marshall...the Marshall sounds great. I'm not sure if you know this already or not but, there are two tricks that I ALWAYS use to get a good heavy guitar sound. 1) Record LOUD. Most amps output their...
