    Refinishing a guitar?

    I just picked this up for practically nothing: It's in pretty rough shape. I don't think it's been touched for 20 years... I've disassembled it and removed all the electronics. They'll all be replaced. Now, the next step is refinishing... but, I've read some conflicting things. "Sand it."...

    I've become totally obsessed with pick history lately and now I'm on a journey of documenting them via a series of overview videos on YouTube.

    Cubase 8 mono output with Windows 8.1

    kidkage's PC build thread (read: kidkage's request for PC build help thread)

    [There's a TL;DR version at the bottom underneath the ______] A few years ago I cannibalized the off the shelf HP desktop I had. It was a nightmare process for me. I was limited to using AMD processors, the PSU was crappy, and the machine kept hitting me with the BSOD every time I opened...

    So how important is the equilateral triangle?

    My mixcube is dead center in the room. My Focals are equal distance from it and the side walls... But there's 40 inches tweeter to tweeter, and 36 inches from each tweeter to my ears :( Should I: A.) Do some repositioning of the monitors to get them 36 inches from each other at the risk of no...

    On RCA adapters is Red/Right and White/Left?

    Sometimes I just want to listen through or work on monitors without plugging in my interface, powering on my mains, etc... I remembered that I still have my old KRK Rokit 6 monitors sitting in boxes... so I've decided to take advantage of them and use them for hassle-free monitoring from my...

    What should I do with this Roxul??

    About two years ago I bought some Roxul to build bass traps in my corners. And a gobo or two. But life got I'm the way and I never had time to build the frames and all that. So now two years later, the Roxul is still in my attic and I have a gigantic roll if burlap in my closet. I'm ready to...

    The RPM Challenge (Record an album in 28 days, just because you can.)

    Not sure where to post this, but I figure since most people check here I'll post it here! The RPM Challenge I'm "entering" this year because after 8 years of making music I haven't released an "official" piece... EVER. They've always been demos or ideas or things that I made sure to point out...

    +4dBu, 0, or -10dBv ; HF/LF Shelving, Desktop Notch and other monitor setup questions

    Hi. It's me :p Still hanging out here in the newbie section. So earlier this year I was able to purchase a nice set of Focal CMS65 monitors.

    How is 1/4 time signature said?

    Kind of a dumb question I always set my metronomes to 1/4 instead of 4/4. Anyway, I've been pronouncing it "one-four" just as I pronounce 4/4 as "four-four". Is that right? Mentally I wonder whether it's "one fourth" or "quarter" or something else. I'm doing a tutorial and have to say it...

    Recording to an external drive?

    Hi folks! Got a Glyph GPT50 to record to. I use Cubase and Ableton, and I'm wondering how I actually record to the external drive (which I'm running through FireWire btw). Is it just a matter of saving the project to the Glyph, opening it from there and then everything will write to that...

    I got an external hard drive... now what?

    I just bought a Glyph GPT50 (or GTP50... whatever it's called.) because my flash storage in my computer is filling up with sound libraries. I figured I'd use it as a project drive. Now I'm wondering though - should I make it my sample/sound library/my Native Instruments Komplete drive instead...
