Hello to all. I have been a member of this forum since 2012 but this is my first time, I think, posting in this forum. I recently purchased a DP-24SD, I was using a 244 before this, and am considering purchasing an electronic drum kit. I would like to have a traditional kit but my wife would...

This is a simple question, I hope. Can you use condenser microphones with the 244? I can't seem to make it work. Here is the gear that I have" MICROPHONES AT2035 Blue Spark Shure BG 5.0 small diaphragm (phantom power or AA battery) POWER SUPPLY Sterling Audio, PHP1 Behringer, Tube...

It has been 47 years since I have had a bass guitar to play. It was a Black Jack violin bass and my brother had the matching 12 string guitar. The year was 1968 and was the only time my brother and I were in a band together. Well, this evening I order a new bass from Sweetwater. I know that...

I have finally reached the point where I am not scared to try recording on my 244. I haven't recorded on it since 1986 for fear of failure. I know that sounds stupid, but it is what it is. I have been trying to work up the courage since I joined HR in 2012. Now that I am ready, I don't know...

Today I went with my wife to our local Habitat for Humanity Resupply store. She had household items on her mind, my mind was a pleasant blank. I realize that this is an insignificant find but for me, to whom this never happens, it was epic. I saw lying on a table an unopened two pack of 110...

What is the best microphone to use for recording low brass, a euphonium to be precise? What would work better, a dynamic or condenser? If the answer is a condenser, should it be a small diaphragm or large diaphragm? I'm soooo confused.

I just got my first Fender amp. It looked like it came out of the Dust Bowl. It was filthy, and all the pots and the power switch were scratchy. I completely disassembled it, cleaned it inside and out and used contact cleaner quite liberally on the electronics, it looks and sound brand new...

Hey guys, I just picked up a Yamaha CP30. The price was right, free, and everything works on it. Does anyone have any experience with this keyboard? I know it is not even close the the same level of the Fender Rhodes, but as I mentioned, FREE.

For the past three years I have read many threads extolling the virtues of the click track. This evening I finally decided to try it. I first recorded my metronome at 120 bpm with a one measure count. This procedure went okay, I mean how hard is it to record a metronome. I then proceeded to...

Now that I have a bass, what would be the best effects pedal for producing a good sound for recording to a TASCAM 244? I don't mean the best brand, but which effect or combination of effect on a a pedal. For those of you who are not familiar with recording to tape, once the track is laid down...

This song is very simple, a bit morose, not quite stream of consciousness. It was how I was feeling at the time. The melody pretty much matches the mood of the lyrics. Believe it or not, back in 1971 whenever we played this song, as soon as we started the audience recognized it and would...

I can see this product being useful for someone with limited right hand (or left hand if you are a lefty) mobility, but for the rest of it why not just learn to play the guitar. I didn't hear anything in this video that can't be done without the Hammerjammer...

Is there any way to slave two DP24x or 32s together to make a 48 or 64 track studio?

I have been looking for plans for a Hofner or Epiphone Viola style bass for quite some time now, but I haven't had any luck in finding any. Do any of you luthier type folks out there have any suggestions. I am the type of person who needs detailed plans to build anything. Any help would be...

I don't have a drum kit but am looking for an option to add drum tracks to my recordings. Are electronic drum kits a good option, do they sound okay or do they sound like crap for recording? I need something other than my Roland keyboard synth drums.

I guess what I am asking is, have we replaced the artistry of performance with laboratory like perfection in the recording and mixing of music. Do we spend too much time trying to create a perfection that does not exist in nature by removing all human artifacts from a recording? And is this a...

I like many song writers who write on the guitar will often times write down lyrics and chords when writing a song. When writing and instrument though I put pen to paper (figuratively) and score the song on the staff. I haven't uses actual pen and staff paper for a long time but I do use...

My question is: How do I get my recording from my Tascam 244 to my computer? I wish it wasn't necessary, but I guess there is no other way to post a recording to this site or any other site without it being digitized first. The way that I have, in the past, transferred vinyl to cd has been...

I have been a member of this forum for a little over a year now and have spent many hours listening to all the great music y'all have posted here in the mp3 clinic. I have decided that it is about time I posted something. So on this date in three months time (15 Sept) I will post one of my...

As I get older it seems that more and more of the rock legends and innovators that I grew up with are leaving us. Now in my 60s I know this is only going to accelerate. Ray played the keyboard in a way that made one sit up and take notice. He gave the music that Robbie Krieger and Jim...
