Hi: I am setting up a second smaller pair of Tannoy Reveal speakers in my studio. However, unlike my first pair, these speakers are passive, which need speaker wire to receive their signal. Do I need to buy some kind of small receiver to power these speakers or is there another way to connect...

Guitar World magazine has opened a new online storefront to sell collector’s editions of its popular instructional guitar DVDs that have completed its newsstand sales runs and are still in high demand. www.guitarworld.com/store For over three years, Guitar World has produced some of the most...

I recently bought the Electronic Musician/Thomson Course Technology magabook "Mastering Cubase 4," where they boast about a bonus DVD "to get up to speed quickly with Steinberg's powerful cross-platform digital audio sequencer!" While the magabook itself has some useful articles that are Cubase...

I am trying to find out how to use a MIDI controller to automate parameters in effects I am using as inserts. For example, I have Camel Space as an insert effect on one of my audio tracks, and I would like to alter the filter cutoff at certain parts of my songs. I absolutely know you click on...

I'm having a monitoring problem, now that I've been adding some external FX to my Cubase setup. I use SX3.1 on Mac G5, with a MOTU 24 i/o. With a new Lexicon MX400 and ART TCS compressor, I've used the external FX setup in Cubase, so I can use them a plug-ins. I have everything routed in and...

You know, the June issue of Future Music's US edition has been out for a couple of weeks, and I've been meaning to get around to this. The cover story is the first I've seen where the Lips actually talk about producing in the studio, as opposed to "the meaning of the songs." Not suprisingly...

With the Chili Peppers album out today, July's Guitar World is basically all about the band, especially guitarist John Frusciante. If you know anything about Frusciante, you'll appreciate the fact he is photographed as a devil with horns, and in another one, he is in a white tunic like a saint...

Hey all: Just reading the Guitar World cover interview with Tool's Adam Jones and he talks about this wild pedal his engineer made for their new album. It sounded so crazy, I figured you'd all get a kick out of it. Jones talks about how he has this Gig-FX Chopper pedal he had worked on so he...

Well, it's amazing what you'll do when you've got a solo album to plug. Gilmour's on the cover of the new issue of Guitar World talking about a lot of stuff. Actually, the whole issue is one big Pink Floyd thing, asking about his solos on Shine On You Crazy Diamond, Another Brick in the Wall...

If you're a Cars fan or dig Ric Ocasek's production of bands like Weezer, it's really cool that he finally talk about producing in the new edition of Future Music (the US edition). Ocasek is like a hero of mine, from a songwriting point of view, and putting together the sound of the Cars. I...

So I got my hands on a copy of the first issue of the US version of Future Music. I'd been buying the UK version for almost a couple of years and it was costing me a fortune. So I'm glad this is a lot cheaper ($7.99). Thought I'd share my thoughts. Yes, it has a disc on the cover, with 200...

I've seen a lot written that layered rhythm guitars should be mixed hard left and right, and I guess if you listen to enough records, that sounds pretty much on the mark. But what about solos? How do you mix them to stand out in a mix, as far as panning, reverb and any other effects for taste...

Just picked up the Ibanez Tube Screamer 808, just waiting to bust this baby out. At the Guitar Center, the salesperson says if I have a problem with it, I should bring it back. She then pointed to this weird power adapter that comes with it. OK, well, she was right. For some wacky reason, the...
