First song a gig many moons ago I stepped right in line of a flashpot shooting flames about five feet straight up along the headstock to 5-7th fret(s). Melted strings, and those that didn't melt went limp. Luckily the rest of the guitar went for the most part unscathed. Not so much my hand...

I like it. That's all I have.

You have to have a certain number of posts before you can post links, 10 I believe the number is. post 'em if you got 'em ps: don't go near the cave, you'll rarely if ever exist. it will ruin your life, shatter your ambition, and decimate all hope of ever becoming that which you seek to...

A friend of mine spends a lot of time in various studios up in Boston(engineering and such). He said, and I paraphrase, you should hear some of the early outtakes of Elliot Easton's solos. They are horrible!. The caveat, my buddy is a damn good guitarist but could never quite hookup with the...

Ah, the tricky part indeed, even more so for some of us. :o

Roger Walters - my her... Wait, who? :confused:

Hate it. When I try to sing I sound like Robert Goulet, minus the immense talent that is Goulet.

Truck blowed a head gasket, dog died, crops got washed away when the levee broke, and the ol' lady dusted her broom. I took to drinkin' and honky tonkin.

Ernest Tubb to Slim Whitman. I'm pretty versatile.

When recording vocals and listening through cans, do you prefer to cut the vocal levels down so they are somewhat buried inside the music, or up slightly louder than they would eventually be mixed into the rest of the tracks? If up, you can clearly listen, stay on key, and so forth. But then...

Your friend Brenda has a beautiful voice. She's a keeper.

Very nice vocals!

Damn dude, crank 'em out don't you. I like. Nice work. Clarify, did you say that the it's Okie on vocals, or is that you?

hiiiiiisssssss :mad: :D No worries. Got any words of wisdom(that'd be you) for the clueless(that'd be me)?

Hey Rami! Sorry, I thought this thread had died. I'm not sure what you're getting at....can you explain? edit: Doh! Oh, wait, I get it now. har har :laughings: If i'm not mistaken, you use a 2488, right? What do you think about what has been said so far. Am I on the right track, or...

Stand back guys, i'll handle this question. Hey Knube, I had the same problem with hiss. After a bit of experimentation, oddly enough, I cranked the shit out of the volume on the Boss "drum" machine and adjusted the trim/mic input on the 2488 until I was peaking at -16 db, and this achieved the...

Hey Cosmic, thanks. Yes, coming out of the Boss(mono/L output) and straight into the 2488 mic input. Perhaps a poor choice of words on my part, "crank". (i think) I've been turning the Boss to about 50(plus a bit) of full volume, then setting my level at -16db by adjusting the mic input trim...

For sure. But, preferably, i'd like to have all the individual "drums" on separate tracks for mixing purposes. Would placing a gate in the signal chain(between the drum machine and the tascam) help get rid of the hiss? From what i've been reading(from a google search), I should crank the drum...

I'm using a Boss DR-670 to record "drum" tracks. I'm recording each drum on a separate track, muting all other drums inside the Boss to get the one drum for each track. I'm running a midi cable between the two, my Tascam 2488 as the master, and the Boss being the slave. I'm getting a hiss on...

Did I kill it? :confused:
