To make the reverb in the Blues Junior useable, replace the tank with this ($16), AND change the Reverb pot to an audio taper one from billm audio ($12).

I haven't seen the video (and I won't) but I did read the SOS article and I do use a pink noise reference to get an initial balance quickly and with headroom. It only takes a few seconds on core tracks (drums, bass, keys, guitar), not 3 minutes. It is by no means and not intended to be a final...

The Talk mode is, as you might guess, pretty vocal-sounding. It may be gimmicky or not have that much real musical application. I had fun with the melody to "Summertime".

I recently purchased a Mooer @Wah. It's a new product so there weren't any reviews I could find, I think I listened to 1 YT demo. I wanted an inexpensive envelope follower with at least selectable LP, HP, BP filters. This one has that plus "SP" for Standard, whatever that is, plus a "Talk"...

I have been wanting a pair of M5s but haven't had a project that really calls for them. I also don't have a daughter that sings and plays like yours. Wow. Have you tried a phase/time adjustment plug-in like Voxengo's PHA-979 on the vocal track? Voxengo also has a free Sound Delay plug-in...

^^ What he said. I'll add that I use the 2i4, and have never found a need for a DI box.

I stand corrected and embarrassed. I forgot about that switch.

I assume you are using a DAW to play your backing track and click track... You could route the click track to Output 3/4 on the Scarlett, but then you'll need to run that to a headphone amp.

Have you ever objectively measured the response of your room - with an Omni mic or SPL meter and an app like Room EQ Wizard? Maybe you've got a null in the low end at the listening position (in spite of copious treatment) that you are unwittingly compensating for...

Just take an anti-static dryer sheet and wipe your pick guard with it. I live in a desert and my room is carpeted, and this treatment is effective for 2 or 3 weeks before I need to re-apply. Plus my guitar and room smell like fresh laundry. TIP: Wash your hands before you handle the pick, in...

Thanks. Can't really see in the pictures, but there is a tape of sorts around each coil. I will check with DiMArzio or post on the user forum there.

I have this DiMarzio HS-2 pickup - based on the patent date, I believe it dates to 1984 or earlier. When I removed it from the pickguard it had been residing in for 30 years (the pickguard hasn't been in a guitar for 25 years), the two coils came apart. My question is, should the coils...

Then I suggest you start out with the room as is or try some makeshift treatment like heavy blankets for tracking and find out you like doing this and want to pursue it before investing in proper acoustic treatment. Read the stickies at the top of this forum to get an idea of what you're...

Are you planning to just record in that room, or do you also plan to mix recorded tracks there?

The outputs from the I/F you show going to the compressor are going to be the same signal as is going to the monitors. That's probably not what you are wanting to compress. The connections on the far right of the I/F rear are inserts; they carry both the send and return to/from an effect...

I would suggest to noobs to NOT treat their room at first, and decide if they even like recording/mixing/producing before taking that leap. I've seen quite a few "complete recording studio gear" ads on Craigslist (and some include acoustic treatment). I waited about a year to treat my room...

Just to make sure - does your mic cable have an XLR connector going into the 2i2 (looks like the connector going into the mic, except it's male)?

The Presonus comes with a license for Studio One Artist, you could try that out for your DAW.

Does the green "halo" around the gain knob on the 2i2 light up when you play the guitar? What level (dBFS) do you read on the input channel in the DAW?

Maschine is purpose-built for beat-making. The software that comes with it is essentially the DAW. The Studio version is the high end of the line, have you looked at the mid and lower tier offerings? You can use a MIDI keyboard with it. If you want to record vocals or any non-MIDI...
