Yea I also think that any thing that passes thru your Mackie is not gonna come out the other end as well as it could. Get your 500 stuff or the software and get rid of the boat anchor.

Your not gonna be able to track while driving down the road, too loud, and if your parked you can plug your rig in to shore power, an outlet. A generator is only really needed for boon docking, camping in the middle of no where, and maybe occasionally while driving to run anything that needs...

There is so much info on this subject here and on google, its insane. You shouldn't have any problems at all finding budget friendly projects.

The singer in one of my bands went thru a Jim Morrison phase. He dropped some acid at the start of a gig( I found this out later) , he was acting kinda strange but all in all did good until the end of the gig. During the last song he suddenly threw his guitar and mic down and bolted off the...

A band playing at a hotel lounge are professional's in the music biz. Getting in the biz is easy, getting out or being super successful is another story .

Try using a plastic beater for more attack...if you already are then get the head you like and know.

Yes.

Zildjian's always smell funny. Spraying a little 409 or whatever will not really mess with the patina and save your cymbal bag from picking up the smell, unless you secretly enjoy that stench.

I figured out "The Secret" to achieving great sounding , professional sounding recordings along time ago. Its cumulative, and I cant afford it. Having said that you don't need a $1000k mic , a $1500 mic pre-and a proffesionally treated room to make a solid , great sounding recording. Quit...

Going in hot will kill your headroom in the digital world, and sound like shit.

SWEET!! The old dual audio pipes!! Wish I could afford the dual unit!!

Gotta use an sr22 quad tap gate expander, that's inside info so lets keep that on the down low, (like your recordings), word gets out that I gave away a secret I'll probably lose my grammy voting privilege.

yes I get what your saying.
