if i run a tube preamp in my signal chain before my effects... can i still plug into my amp? my amp is a marshall valvestate. so it has a tube preamp built in. can you run multiple preamps in line?

fair enough mikeh. thanks for your input. ideally i'd like to stick to my promark 5B sticks. but if im breaking them all the time then that's a lot of money i'm wasting. though i realize this has to be a technique thing. i've been playing drums for about 9 years and i never used to break...

these ones dont seem as hard on the cymbals as aluminum sticks because they have some carbon like sleeve that covers the stick. the purpose is that you always replace the carbon/plastic sleeves. i dont know if i like them yet either. they have a plastic tip, so they sound sound much different.

OKay... so I have been breaking sticks like crazy lately. Anyways, I bought Ahead's Aluminum 5B-LTD stick for $45 (canadian). The shaft is skinnier for the most of the stick, and there is a plastic/wood composite cover that is replacable. It's good because now, the covers last longer, and...

i have never worked with analog units for recording... so I cannot say how much harder it actually is. but as you guys have more experience, i do believe that digital has made things a lot easier and cheaper on our part. i guess in a way it seems unfair, because digital home recording systems...

hey haha... ive been trying to think of a good name for my solo project. then i went to check this thread and it hit me. what about "the colours of noise" as the name for my solo project? i think it sounds cool. and for you americans, colours is spelled with a "u" because im canadian :D...

thanks guys... but what about the other colours (like blue noise). what do they use the other colours for?

hi there, i know that the colours of noise are basically a constantly playing set of frequencies, and each has it's own purpose... but in laymans terms, what are they all for. ive heard of people using noise to acoustically tune a room. what are the other uses? i did a bit of research, and...

also keep in mind tht it doesn just go by year... ive played 4 different versions of my guitar (all 2003) and i only REALLY liked 3 of them. the one just sucked. it didnt feel right, it didnt sound right. same thing with drum stuff. im a drummer anbd ive learned to play cymbals before you...

same thing happened to me... sorta... i used to have an ibanez rg270. hated it... and was considering buying a new guitar. at the time i didnt have enough money... so i wasn't really looking for a new one. i wasn't planning on getting ibanez because i was kinda pissed off with mine. then...

ok thank you guys. maybe i will not get one. for their price, its probably not worth it.

my main plan is to use it in my guitar chain... after my effects, before my amp. then for recording i will be micing my amp. no direct in stuff.

really? i thought it would help in studio use. not that you have to max out the knobs, but it being present would clear things up a bit. ?

what do u mean it will piss off the sound guy? thanks guys. i am just trying to justify whether it is worth the money or not. are there any other enhancers that you would recommend over the bbe?

thank you. that's good to hear... but i disagree about behringer. i like them a lot. i believe people relate their quality to how cheap their stuff is. their stuff is so cheap because they copy designs and sell a lot. i bet if behringer chose to make their stuff more expensive, closer to...

Anybody here use BBE Sonic Maximizers? I've read a lot of good reviews on them, but I'm wondering what your experience is with them. I was thinking of getting the 482i for my guitar setup. It would go right before my amp after all my effects. Or is this a waste of money? Thanks

behringer compressors I've read that Behringer's compressors are decent. What do you guys think of using this in my guitar setup? I mainly want it for the 2-channel compressor, but it has other cool features too. BEHRINGER AUTOCOM PRO-XL MDX1600...

I agree completely... they sell like crazy... of course some aren't going to work. I have 3 behringer mixers... Two baby UB802 mixers... and one giant MX3282A. That thing rocks! Keep in mind Behringer copies almost everything they make. Not just the looks, but the circuitry and everything...

im starting my own guitar soon too... already bought a bunch of wood working equipment to get started :D anyways, i've learned a lot off of frets.com! it isn't a beautiful looking site, but the information there is unbelieveable! tons of pictures and tons of step by step information. check...

okay ive created a simpler setup idea to do this. what do you guys think of this is idea? CLICK HERE TO SEE PIC this eliminates any colouration of signal from mixer and DI box. then i can mic the amp. i read a vunch of reviews on the whirlwind selectors and they do not colour the signal...
