    What do you use for a click track?

    You know, what I like to do is have the guitarist sit down (on an electric guitar, yet unplugged) I will then sit in hearing distance, and set a mic up to record. I then record me playing a cowbell to the guitarist's playing. Two things done... A) Click Track B) Cowbell Track All problems...

    How important is touring?

    If the band was good enough and the only expenses are those associated with touring at a constant rate the day job would go out the window for me.. (food should be included with that and truck stops have showers, so fuck hotels) Look at HIMSA.. they're touring style is my kinda life.. -Paul

    How important is touring?

    HR Forum Tour 2010! Kidding.. I for one agree with the seabeast (froggy).. I was in a band in GA for awhile called The Nuclear Option (Metal Band) and we didn't think of so much as leaving the county until we were playing capacity shows in town.. then we started branching out around GA, and...

    my studio set up

    Audio Interface + Pre-Amp

    I'd would honestly say go with an MBOX then, expecially since you don't have a DAW at this point, might as well start with Pro-Tools. Better than spending 500 bucks on a DAW and then spending more on an interface. The MBOX 2 is 450.. 2 mic-pre's usb interface and protools -Paul

    Looking for Recording Setup Recommendation

    I agree with Pre-Sonus, while I've heard mixed reviews I have had experience with one through a friend of mine recently.. It worked smoothly for him. Also, I forgot one thing in my previous post. No you do not have to use the CueMix you should be able to route entirely from withing Sonar...

    Looking for Recording Setup Recommendation

    I don't personally own an 8-Pre but the fairly limited hands on experience I had with one was quite nice. I also know alot of people that use it, and I'm an avid MOTU fan (No pun intended). Personally, I use Sonar 7 Producer Edition with a MOTU 2408 and a 324PCI Card with Pre-Amps from my board...

    Anyone here obsessed with writing Beatles-quality songs?

    On Topic Reply: My personal interest in the Beatles was never solely based on the quality of song, an added interest was due to the fact that they had 27 Number One Hits out of 29 Released Singles.. An Excellent Accomplishment. Therefore, I study those 27 songs intently so that I may have a...

    Anyone here obsessed with writing Beatles-quality songs?

    I'm not saying that the Who didn't have their moments.. ie: Won't Get Fooled Again, Who Are You, (MAAAAAYBE) My Generation.. but for the most part.. I can't get into them.. Example: I may be to ONLY person alive that likes Limp Bizkit's Version of Behind Blue Eyes better than the Original...

    Audio Interface + Pre-Amp

    Are you looking to solely record live vocals and program everything else? (I'm assuming yes as you didn't mention anything else in the OP) Also, do you have a DAW currently and what kind of computer system are you running? -Paul

    Looking for Recording Setup Recommendation

    Do you have any microphones currently? If so how many more are you wanting.. Or are you just looking for an interface, in which case I'll assume that you want pre-amps included. Also, what kind of computer are you using? --Paul Side Note: I use Sonar 7 Producer Edition and that works for me...
