    Having your hero play your guitar

    That's really cool, thanks for sharing. I got to meet Sonny Landreth after a show, that's the closest I can come to something like that. That's crazy how they were just sitting around talking about their songs and everything; its funny how after listening to them and the influence they've had...

    Having your hero play your guitar

    What was he like? It's cool that you were exposed to and got to interact with all these musicians I've only read about and listened to, I missed them all.

    Is it wrong to like The Edge?

    Yeah that makes sense, he does tend to go a bit far with that. I mean, he's trying to help people which you can't fault, but if that's the case with his own country.... :confused: By the way, good tunes man :D

    Having your hero play your guitar

    Question: HOW?!?! More importantly, how can I?? :D

    Is it wrong to like The Edge?

    I think he meant on a international scale. Which doesn't matter; if you sound like you, then you sound like you and you should be proud of it! That said, you can make something sound great and be a great guitarist and not have to sound completely original. If that were the case, than no one...

    Having your hero play your guitar

    Wow, that's really something! I didn't see the song on soundclick, perhaps it was taken down? That was very nice of Eric to write you back like that, I can't imagine he has a lot of time. Seems like a nice guy, your son must have been in heaven!

    Doubling Parts

    Yeah I've done that sort of thing before with guitar parts (strumming a chord on one track and arpeggiating it on another), but I've never payed with the mix much. I didn't know if doubling meant an exact copy or something like you just described. :)

    Doubling Parts

    I've seen references to doubling guitar parts, solos, etc. Is this usually done by actually re-recording the part, or via a cut and paste of the original part into a new track and using the mix to create a bigger effect?

    MIDI Notation

    I was looking through some tutorial videos on MIDI and they all import it by playing along to the project in real time, just like you'd overdub an audio track. I'm looking into a keyboard which is MIDI compatible and has a whole bunch of presets like percussion, strings, etc. which I would like...

    how not to record acoustic guitar picks?

    Punch in

    Yeah, I can definately understand it if you are recording in a pro studio, or course, when rates are like $100 per hour. No reason not to do it at home too, I guess. I suppose you are right about multi-tracking ;)

    Punch in

    I've recorded some basic stuff on the humble setup that I have now, and this crossed my mind: how many of you regularly use punch in? I try not to, as it seems like cheating, and so it takes me awhile to get a take I'm happy with! But the psychological aspects of recording (ie you can play it...

    Hardware vs software

    Ok that makes sense. Thanks a lot :) Matt

    Hardware vs software

    Yeah, I gotcha. That makes sense. If you want to shell out the big bucks, you'll get big results. I'm in the same boat as most home recordists, in the fact that I can't afford big bucks! :) Farview, in terms of the differences with recording a flanger: Short of experimenting, I'm not clear on...

    Hardware vs software

    Over the course of my research on recording, I've read about many pieces of hardware used in the studio for tweaking a finished recording such as compressors, fx. etc. It seems that many of these pieces of hardware are available through plugins in the software editing programs, such as vst, dx...

    Mic Iso Setup

    We all know that a cranked tube amp creates good sound, and I want to try to find a way to do this. I was thinking of the following as a way to properly isolate the amp. The room that I record in sits directly above two other spaces: Basement and the bulkhead. The latter is a 5X5X7 foot space...

    Pro Tools or Firepod?

    Yeah I was thinking about the Firepod as well, its seems like a great setup in terms of investment (at a reasonable price)

    Probebly My Last Question Befor I Go And Blow £1500, So Help!

    I've just been introduced to the Presonus Firepod. Everything you mentioned for $600. I haven't decided on it yet, but I'm looking as well and it caught my attention. M
