    Help with finding a stomp sound?

    Anyone have advice for how to find a stomp sound that will fit my song? I'm kind of hoping to pay just a few dollars for the specific sound I need, rather than downloading some huge pack. Here's the song I want it for: https://soundcloud.com/jessicazin/the-noise I don't think making it myself...

    New song "The Noise" feedback appreciated!

    Thank for any advice you can give me to improve it! I'm very new to this, and this is the first song I've completed since getting monitors. --Jessica https://soundcloud.com/jessicazin/the-noise

    A really ridiculous newbie problem with playing a cd through monitors

    This is so stupid. But I can't figure out how to get a cd, inserted in my computer, to play through my monitors. The sound will only come out of my computer internal speakers.

    Total newbie question but it's also mixing...

    Recording vocals with SM58 and a 500 sq. foot basement...sound treatment options?

    Hello, I really hope someone here can help me! Here is what I do: I arrange and "record" in Logic Pro 9 (ALL software instruments using a midi keyboard). So the only live audio recording I need to do is my voice. My voice is just adequate-sounding...I am planning to do a lot of double tracking...

    I am making songs with nothing but my voice and MIDI instruments...is it hopeless?

    It sounds pretty good to me, but is that hopelessly amateurish? Or is this something that people do? My ultimate goal would be to get my songs as polished as a I can and then make a video and post to Youtube. I guess my question is, if I don't find a real bass player, and instead use midi bass...
