    My amp is pretty noisy also. Until you get money to remedy the situation, just mute the parts when the guitar isn't playing. It works fine. But I do agree with Gidge, you gotta start at the source, and work your way up the chain. It gets a little expensive. Good Luck.

    What does everyone do for a living?

    That sounds like a really cool job! Something I've always wanted to do. I am a house painter right now though. Its pretty cool work though.

    Basic bass

    I have a Washburn XB100. It looks and plays great. I think I got it for about 375 bucks. Combined with my SWR, and 421, it kicks ass.

    Bass microphone options

    I'd go with a 421 and a direct box. Like a countryman or something. If you have tracks to spare, why not. A direct aloneisn't going to catch the physical movement of air that the speaker creates. I just blend the two.

    Click If You *dare*!!!

    I heard that all these pop stars are test tube babies, and they just grow and incubate them somewhere in Disney World. If you look closely at the back of Britney's head, you'll see a little jack where they plug the Antares Autotune in.

    Reversed Vocals

    Sure! just fast forward the song to end, then turn the tape over. Then arm the vox track then start singing. Oh yeah, If you want it to fit with the song, yuo'll have to learn how to sing the melody of the song backwards! HaHa! Nah, you really can't to it. It would be an incredible feat. If...

    Digidesign 882

    You will need outboard pres. What your doing is really not a bad idea. Some of the older Pro Tools stuff is still really good adn becoming pretty cheap. I saw a Pro Tools 3 setup for 1500 bucks and came with a mac! great deal.

    Tk disc is an interesting studio. The owner, TK is the main producer for all the pop bands in Asia. He is the 4th highest taxed person in Japan. Actually, Noone records there if TK doesn't want them to. He picks the clients, not the other way around. Mariah Carey, and Destinys Child recorded...

    Mixing Problems

    I can't say exactly cause I haven't heard the song. It could just use some creative EQ. I always stay away from re recording drums. I would either trigger another drum source or if this is not an option, re record the song.

    Digidesign 882

    I just looked it up on www.digidesign.com Product index. 20 Bit Converters 8 I/Os TRS =4 or -10 2 SPDIF RCA type (24 bit) They're probably pretty cheap now, and I'm not sure if the conversion process is the same as the 888 but It's probably a good deal.

    voice reverb?

    I was having a conversation with a friend of mine, and he was telling me about this vox he did that was pretty interesting. He put a delay on the vox, then put a little reverb on the return of the delay. I don't know how your bussing is set up or if this is possible for you, but it's worth a...

    do i live in opposite land??

    My I banez S series has a Floyd Rose. It's not that it has a problem staying in tune, The problem is when you want to tune to a different key, it won't let you. At least not before you pull every hair out of your head. Sperzel Locking tuning keys are good. You thread the string though the tuning...

    do i live in opposite land??

    I dislike tremolos also. I can't recommend a guitar for you as I've been out of the buying gear phase for a while now, but if you find one, you could always use Sperzel locking tuning keys. These things work great. Adn really help with tuning too.
