Jerry Joseph... Not a great "act" per se, just a musician telling stories to a bunch of people. I saw him in the early 1990's at a bar called the Jade Elephant, in Richmond, VA. At that time, Jerry's band was "Little Women", and they were out on a Miller Genuine Draft tour. There was a...

I spent about a year doing radio in Vicksburg, MS (probably around the time your parents were born...:) There were quite a few bands around there, and quite a few places to play, but if there was a music store there I never found it. Needless to say this was long before GC came to Jackson. But...

If you are running Pro Tools, you need to record your audio on a drive separate from your system drive. If you only have two drives, your samples would be placed on your system drive. If you have three drives available, you could use the third drive for your samples. In reviewing the specs for...

Most headphone amps require a line level input, not an input from a headphone output jack. We will not be able to give you good advice without knowing what make and model of multi-track you have, so we can check the available outputs. Some headphone amps offer "pass through" that pass the...

Sort of on/off topic, depending on your POV; BTW, I am not at all a fan of any kind of sports... While not exactly an anthem, more of an encouragement thing, check out "Don't Come Home Too Soon" by Del Amitri. Totally a beautiful song...

Anyone have any logs they would like to throw on the fire? Since you know that homily, perhaps you know the one about "Putting the cart ahead of the horse". The internet, for better or worse, is the de rigueur marketing tool these days, but you have to use it properly to get good results...

+1 for Recorderman I did some goofing using Recorderman in a lousy room with a couple of cheap dynamic mics and the results were surprisingly good...

SGs have notoriously flexible necks. I used to have a Melody Maker...between a string bend and a neck bend I could take it up almost an octave...:D

I'm a big Behringer fan; I haven't had any problems with any of the gear I've bought over the last 12 or so years. Obviously, I wouldn't have any prejudice against a Behringer keyboard. However, I use Pro Tools, so the sliders and knobs on the Oxygen 49 were appealing to me. And that's what I...

Obvious questions... Do you currently have an interface? If not, which ones are you considering? What is your budget? There are a number of ways of accomplishing what you want to do, but without those answers we can't help you...

Actually, it's an interesting looking product... Of course I wouldn't buy anything that was marketed in this fashion...

I'm afraid you haven't provided enough information for anyone to give you any advice. What brand of computer? What are the computer's specs? How many internal drives? What DAW software?

Another option is to find something like an 8 input interface with an ADAT connection, then use the ADAT to connect a Behringer ADA8000 for 8 more mic inputs. However, before buying anything, may I suggest that you Google the Recorderman and Glyn Johns drum recording methods. Using too many...

In the context of this discussion, the interface does not know what you have plugged in. A guitar or bass expects to "see" a high impedance input, since that is the impedance on the input to a guitar amp. A microphone would typically expect to see a low impedance, although there are some high...

un-orthodox use of mics? Marilyn Manson wins the thread...I saw him a few years ago and at one point he inserted a mic into, shall we say, a woman's posterior and continued singing. (Actually it was a plastic prosthetic device, but it was still really cool)

Methinks you may be overthinking, and overworrying... Don't get me wrong, signal-to-noise is always important. But, assuming you have reasonably decent gear, the noise present through your A/D converters and into your computer is insignificant. But, quite a bit of noise existed between the...

Back to the as yet unanswered question... So if one has an interface like this (even though it's only two line-level inputs, two mic inputs, and a midi input/output), why would you ever need a direct box or a pre-amp for instruments or vocals? Since you have two mic inputs, you already have...

Check here for printing them yourself: Design & Print Online | Print Labels, Business Cards, Invitations I haven't really looked into it, but I'm guessing you will probably need to purchase the "blank" Avery cards; you can get them at Staples and other office supply places, and I believe I...

I need some advice on how to train my ears to be more capable of telling good music from had ones. Getting back to the original question... I used to listen to music on a really cheesy turntable through a Radio Shack speaker mounted in a cigar box. Was that good enough to differentiate...

A rule of thumb I have read lately, but cannot personally vouch for... Ceiling and floor should have opposite reflectance. If you have a highly-reflective ceiling, use a less reflective floor. And vice-versa.
