Anyone using one of these? I just bought a used deluxe and I'm pretty impressed. It has a really good range and is easy to make it sound expressive. Shafts mode is what it says, great 70s **** clean clack guitar wah. Wacky mo is a wider frequently range with what seems like a volume boost cut...

This is my new amp. I was looking for something more compact for easier transport. Always loved the Orange tone. I checked out the discontinued UK made ad15 model, but decided on a used TT. The tt has a raunchier tone. Plus, my current tone idol Jeff Massey plays a dual terror, occasionally a...

After a lot of research and reading I decided to buy one. Like anything else, it seems there are lovers and haters of them. I would like to use it for vocals, but have heard they sound great on guitar amps so I guess we'll see once it gets here. Pretty expensive for an amp-only mic, though...

Well, it's not really a battle because I think all three are winners, but I put together a little drum clip in my home studio and posted samples of all 3, including a dry sample. Before I bought each of these boxes (first the LXP-15II in 2005 or something), I did a lot of reading and opinions...

I just got a PCM70 so I thought I'd saturate the guitar tracks with it just to have a little fun.:) Anyway, as spacey as the song is, it puts the guitar tracks too far back in the mix, and they are a little screechy (friend playing his Strat) anyway. I'm hearing too much high in the drum OH's...

I've been playing with this church jazz band once a week for shits and giggles. They don't usually play at services or anything, just special events: Jazzy, dixieland, and blues originals with "inspirational" lyrics mostly and they're not really fanatic about the religious side of things which...

I heard a rattle in the upper left speaker when doing a scratch track the other day. I only hear it when it's close-mic'd. It wasn't a big deal to move the mic to another speaker, but I'm not looking forward to getting into this, which will likely involve removing the speaker and possibly...

I opened it up and found a ground wire disconnected so maybe that's the issue, maybe not. If anyone has one, could you open it up and tell me where the ground wire is soldered to? I think it is on the same pin as the xlr ground, but not sure. Also, has anyone else had the xlr input go out...

A friend of mine wrote an instrumental to a biker show that another friend of ours does A/V for, so we sat down one afternoon and tracked it out. It's a cool tune and giving me a chance to get acquainted with my equipment, though I'm hearing a lot of things that need attention in future...

The one that sells for $99.00 list. It's pretty decent for the price. I compared it with an orange model 20w 1X8 and a Line 6 and the Fender sounded better than both, except for the little Orange in clean mode. Anyway, I bought one of the little foreign things and the Fender Mustang isn't bad...

What levels are you tracking on it? Jon Scrip and a few others recommend tracking lower than what user manuals state and their logic makes sense, but I'm curious what levels everyone is recording onto their units , in general for different instruments, and whether you've had any pros or cons...

I have a CD-RW700 from years ago, low hours, that is having trouble cycling through the startup commands, making it unable to use. Does anyone else own a CD-RW stand alone burner that has had these problems? The A/D converters on it are fantastic, but repair costs are probably higher than the...

I just a capstan belt replacement using the gwamba youtube video. At A&A, Ghost said you guys had posted the video and explained the step-by-step procedure. For anyone else that runs into this problem, it is not hard to do, and this coming from a person who doesn't normally mess with inner...

Is having a little more tension on your kick heads a bad thing? I was reading up on bass drum tuning and saw recommendations to leave them as relatively loose. I tuned my drums yesterday and gave the bass a little extra tension than before and I kind of like it. I haven't re-mic'd it since...

I did this dry clip of a cover tune from the setup I'm using on some acoustic tracks. After experimenting with LDCs, LDC and SDC, even a ribbon and a tube LDC, this guitar is tracked with 2 SDCs, one about 10th fret and one over-the-shoulder aimed at the bridge or a little behind. 9:00 and...

This was DIY, except I hired out the new breaker panel (replacing a glass fuse panel in the garage) and electrical rough in, and the exterior stucco over the concrete block. There are more pics somewhere of the foundation and excavation and more progress pics, but I can't find them. Inside...

I didn't realize how much of a difference the reso heads make in sound. I've had Evans EC2 batter heads on my drums (except for kick) since I bought them, but crap factory resos until now. The difference is WAY more noticeable than I thought or had read it would be. EC resos on the toms, hazy...

I have bad-mouthed Epi's sometimes based on my experience with them. I take some of it back. I recently sold a 1965 original Harmony Rocket nice condition (and I'd had it since '85/86 or so) to make room for a new "on-the-fly" practice guitar. So I saw this GC flame sunburst version of the...

I haven't turned the machine on for about 2 years and it was working fine last time it was on. Turned it on today to take photos for Ghost's wallpaper renderings, and it did not play forward or fast forward. I manually turned the reels and they seemed a little tight. Then I noticed the pinch...

Yeah, it ain't so pretty, especially as I have the GoBos standing on my messy deck, but just finished the frames at almost 2:00 in the morning on Friday night. Simple 1x4" pine stained with fabric-wrapped 703 panels fitted tightly on the inside of each. I didn't do reflective on the back or...
