Hey everyone. I've done some reserach on the net and here on the bbs on room treatments and now I hope to get some more personal suggestions. What I'm looking for are cheap solutions. My room is measures about 15 by 18 with hard walls all around and it's carpeted (don't know what kind of...

I'm in the middle of recording some home demos and am looking for a person to mix them. No, I can't afford to pay anything, just looking for someone who will take this on as a hobby. I'm not that skilled in mixing, which is why I'm asking someone else to do this. I am recording these tracks...

I've been looking around town for a good Epi LP, but have not been able to find any. So I'm in the last guitar shop around and they carry Austin LP's. They're about $150 cheaper than the epi counterpart, and they play pretty well. I'm thinkin about buying one but wanted some advice first. Has...

Just wondering.... what's the difference between open coil and closed pickups? sorry if it's a stupid question.

Hey everyone, I hope to soon be buying a new guitar for myself, but am not really that big on the subject. I want some advice as to which type/brand would be suitable for my needs. I guess I should give you some info as well: 1. I play rock music (think weezer/foo fighters) 2. I use a Fender...

Hey everyone, just posting a link to some songs our band recorded recently. I know the mix sucks, but I just want anyone who's interested in the "music" to listen to it and let me know what you think. Peace http://www.nowhereradio.com/artists/album.php?aid=2750&alid=492

I have been using Pro Mark's 5A oak for my rock band, but they break soooo easily. So now I need to switch to a more durable stick. Feel free to post what model in addition to voting for a brand, and what type of music you play. Thanks.

So I just got some passive speakers and have been looking at power amps. I have a couple of questions: 1. The speakers are 300W and 8 ohms. Does that mean that I will only be able to run the amp at 8 ohms and not at 2, 4, etc.? 2. I have been looking at the Crown XLS 202 amp. I do not think...

My friend just brought over two of his dad's PA speakers. (I dont really know if they are intended for PA use but I'm cheap and will take what I can get) They are Acoustic USA speakers. I took out the woofer and read that each speaker is 300W and 8 ohms. So now i need a good power amp. I am...

Hey everyone, just wanted to let you know I'm auctioning off my Delta 44 soundcard on Ebay. Recording and Mixing is too frustrating for me, I'm going to stick with just playing. I've only used it about 5 times during one month, so if you're interested, place a bid...

I posted this problem awhile back, but none of the solutions worked, so I'm hoping to get some new ideas on what to do. When I record using Cakewalk PA9 and my Delta 44, I sometimes get a crackling noise on the recording. I am sure this is occurring during the recording and not just on the...

Hey everyone, my band just posted a new song on NWR, it's called "Two-Way." Please check it out and tell me what you think. There's no bass part though, need to work on getting the bassist to practice. Everything was recorded raw from the mixer, no EQ or compression or anything else. Added a...

Alright, I have a really irritating problem when I try to record anything on Cakewalk PA9. Sometimes, (it seems like every other time), when I record there will be crackling with it. It sounds like the track is clipping. I made sure the track is not clipping on my mixer, my soundcard toolbox...

First of all, thanks to o0Charlie0o for the idea, i had never really thought of this. Our band is doing our first demo right now, and would really appreciate some professional help on it. We can handle recording, but I'm not cut out for mixing. (too complicated for me) I'll be honest, I can not...

Hey everyone, I was just curious and wanted to hear anyone that has a good example of a drum recording. Live sets only.....could be in song or just a solo. Please post your mp3's for everyone to hear your work.

My band and I have just started recording our demo. (we ourselves are recording them, not a studio.) I have already posted two songs on NWR. I would appreciate it if you listened and give feedback. These are rough versions with not all of the parts in yet, but its something to listen to...

I just go into computer recording this week, and my band is getting ready to record some songs. I am using Cakewalk Pro Audio 9 and have a Delta 44 soundcard. I have some questions on methods of recording. 1. When you record, do you use a computer metronome to keep your time, or does it matter...

Just today I got my Delta 44 card and I am recording with Cakewalk's Pro Audio 9 software (yeah, yeah, i know its old and outdated). Anyways I am having trouble getting the metronome setting up to a reasonable volume during recording, and when i record guitar, the sound only comes out of the...

Alright, pretty soon I am going to make the leep into computer recording. I think i know which card to get but I'm not sure. I'm thinking of getting the Delta 410 with its 4 ins and 10 outs. My setup will most likely look something like this. I will use the drums for my example: Overhead Mic 1...
