Again, beautiful work. I expect to be saying that a few more times. I don't really paint guitars (I have on occasion), and I never spray at night not because I can't see well, but because of the bugs that inevitably fly into the finish. I learned that concept back in 1988, when I painted my...

Beautiful craftsmanship.

It's been a long time since Chevy used Celebration as the foundation for their commercials, but I remember a lot of hoopla about it. ::headscratch:: I wish my memory worked better. lol

Well Duh, I'm not disagreeing with you lol. Just sharing how my friend pays the bands that play in his bar. They get a piece of the evening's take, which I think is pretty cool. Far better opportunity but also with more risk.

The reason why I think pay2play came into existance is because there are more bands than there are clubs to play in, and bands want to play clubs to build a following, and the club owners saw an opportunity to line their pockets. No different than anything else... "Gee, I can make a buck off...

I think as you do. I would find a cover flattering, as long as that cover doesn't produce income without a license. A free fun thing on youtube would be fine by me. However, if an artist covers my song and makes $20M, being that it's my song, I would expect some of those dollars. Not all...

That's exactly it. The various media companies spend days, weeks, and months, combing through youtube looking for covers and copyrighted material. They also actively comb p2p networks, torrent listing servers, and in recent years they've deliberately hacked up clients like bittorrent so they...

Often times when Windows "dies" and gives you the impression the hard drive went south, nothing is actually wrong with it mechanically. Often times you can put that drive into an external USB enclosure and plug it into a friend's computer and retrieve your data on his computer. Many linux...

Bruce, Remember that you are going to be your worst critic, and you need to keep that in mind while listening to your tracks. The little nuances that may irritate you greatly, may actually sound just fine to everyone else. I'm not suggesting you don't strive for the best of your ability, but...

You have to unsolder the original battery and solder in either a new battery, or the two leads from a two-AA battery holder. The reason why I went with the AA holder is someday, *when* the batteries die, I can find a pair of AA batteries in my junk drawer, but if not, I can drive to any store...

Latency, yes, that will be a problem, however a "audio router" could solve much of that by significantly prioritizing audio traffic over everything else, much the way routers today can prioritize voice over IP traffic. Also consider this : ADAT lightpipe (8 channels of audio) is tranmitted at...

I generally buy steel-wheeled casters from harbor freight, because they're cheap, durable, and wide enough not to get caught in sidewalk cracks. Occasionally, they even put them on sale.

We all know we can record to wave files and email and ftp them all over the place. This is done every day and collaboration can occur over a vast geography. But, it's not real time. I predict that a very big thing will be an "audio network" riding over either private networks or the public...

LOL I appreciate that Glen and if I'm ever out that way I'll for sure want to look you up and check out your folks and the place. I was kidding though, I'm actually not driving out that way, but was trying to be funny in my admiration of what of you're studio I can see :)

Very nice setup Glenn. I am leaving now to drive out to Chicago, and when I arrive I'm going to waste a day of your time looking around and oogling, and I expect an endless supply of coffee in exchange for the 500+ compliments I more than likely will drop while my tongue hangs out. Kidding...

I have two headphone jacks in the vocal booth and two more in the console room all fed by an oz-audio HR4 unit. The HR4 is fed by an analog line mixer that can sum up the 8 busees as well as the stereo mix, and has a separate outboard (Yamaha R100 - tiny old dinosaur) dedicated to this purpose...

While I don't have to play with contests like this at the moment, just wanted to say I always love hearing your stuff Greg in part or whole. I just got handed a bag of shit project and when I heard the guitar playing on it I immediately thought to myself, "hey, that Greg guy on HR could do this...

MIDI is just a slow-ass serial interface, that's optically coupled. It transmits at 32 kilo bits per second. 8 bits per byte, note on and off being the simplest transmissions of two bytes - note number, then on or off. So at a minimum, you're tranmitting 16 bits to do something, anything at...

Because "only" mastering engineers know how to use a compressor correctly :D There, now you're less confused :-P

Before you buy anything, even an audio interface, make sure you look at the Chainer website (http://www.xlutop.com/html/chainer.html) maybe download the demo version, play with it, etc. Your audio interface MUST be ASIO 2.0 compatible. While it's only a 1mb download and super simple to...
