I also put up on of the songs as a free download here: www.nathanschafer.com/nathanschafer/Music.html Let me know what you think. I hope you enjoy listening.

does anyone else hate the new jumbo frets on the new teles and strats. I was going to buy one until this happened. I played on at namm and it was not comfortable. What are the advantages, or, why on earth would they put those huge frets on the guitar?? also, anyone know of any stores still...

I've been in the box since I started music, but I'm wondering exactly how people incorporate their analog mixers in with their daws and the benefits. I know people mix in analog but I'm not sure how its set up. for example, do you have all the outputs from your interface going to different...

I just got done recording a great acoustic guitar and vocal track just to find out there is radio on one of the guitar tracks. RAAGGGEEE!!! I have such a problem with this through my monitors but it has never come through on a track!! but now i've checked everything and I can't find why its...

I mostly work in a recording/sequencing setting and never really did much live. Well I'm doing guitar/vocals in a wedding setting and I have some questions. Do you normally use a nice preamp for live use? For example I have an rnp and rnc. Would it be wise to use the rnp with my sm57 and 58...

I'm thinking of selling this baby and wanted to test the bait here. I got it a few years ago, and aside from playing around a bit I have not used it much at all, just not my thing. I'm not the best guitar player either. Anyway, I'm looking to get around 350 for it. If there is any interest...

I'd like to get into more fast intricate drum beat sequencing but i am having a hard time getting motivated and getting things accomplished with a standard sequencer. I find myself looking at the screen and moving notes around rather than performing. I mainly use pro tools and Live 5. what...

does anyone know which DAW is the most popular as far as sales goes? just curious.

www.freecompose.com this is my new website, its kinda like free-writing but with music instead. I will be composing a song a week with a little documentation on everything I did in the process. Check the about page for more info on the site. I have a lot of ideas to make the site grow so...

I'd like to get my hands on some nice acoustic drum samples. What are some of the best out there? I've been looking at Propellorhead's RDK 2.0 and it seems pretty impressive. Does anyone have any other opinions? thanks

anyone know of a good online tutorial site for logic 7? this thing is foreign to me. I'm so used to dp and pro tools and i can hardly believe how different logic is. free tutorials would be optimal, or a really cheap book or dvd.

I want to get one of these but don't know one which would be best. first of all, money is an issue so the mpd16 definitely became much more appealing when the price was lowered, since before it was the trigger finger all the way. really I just want pads, tons of knobs doesn't really matter...

I recently got digidesigns new free synth. for a free piece of software this thing is awesome. I'm really impressed with the presets and also its stability. Its got my thinking about buy hybrid (which I'm sure its what they made it for) What are your thoughts?

I always have trouble with reverb when it comes to mixing and wanted to discuss what techniques everyone uses. I've heard that in general you want to use 1 reverb for pretty much everything, and then maybe change it for the vox. but that could also provide to much of an interference between...

i desperately need pitch correction but i just don't have $350 to spend on antares or something like it right now. I'm just curious if there is ANY cheap pitch correction plugins out there that I could use? thanks

Well I just picked up both an rnp and rnc. I love them to death already. Anyway I just want to talk aloud and look for some opinions for racking these babies up. I got a patchbay that I'm throwing these into now. I have the rnp outs on the top of two patch channels going down to the rnc...

I have a mcu and i was curious if its possible to use it in conjunction with a bcf-2000 to get 8 more channels to control with. it would certainly be a cheaper option!

I've been going over my signal chain to find any flaws and I was curious if any of you know a good way to check the quality of a signal. Sometimes when I record I feel that the dynamics aren't what they should be, or that its not as crisp as can be, but I don't know how much that has to do...

this might be a dumb question... but do you generally pair a nice pre with a tube mic like the ntk for example? or does the tube take the place of the pre? in other words, the putting a pre on an ntk or t3 affect the tube in a negative way? Do you still need a pre with these mics?

I have two computers right now, a mac mini and an ibook. Yes neither are that fast, but its what I have for the moment so please no "get a powermac" posts. I use the mac mini as my main computer and I want to use the ibook to slave to a sampler or syntheziser, just to take a load off the mac...
