I have 2 choices for my "Home Studio." Space is short with 2 kids, so I'm forced to choose either the attic (floorplan below) or the basement (pretty standard 2 long rectangular room layout). Problems arise with both spots, because of the fear of moisture and low (7') ceiling in the basement...

I don't know if this is the appropriate forum, but the guy's a guitar player, so I figured this one's as good as any! Met Neil Zaza today. My wife (God bless her!) bought us tickets to his Christmas show in his hometown of Cleveland. I went to pick up the tickets from the studio he owns not...

Just got my firebox today (hooray) and I'm encountering a slight problem. The only time I can get sound out of it is when the "Mix to Phones" (the zero latency monitoring) is enabled. I just tried to test with a guitar plugged in direct to the mic/instrument input 1. I tried with Amplitube...

Today was a good day! Went to Hell (Guitar Center) with some old gear to trade and a bit of cash, and actually escaped with not only my life, but also a new Peavey Vypyr 30 and Sennheiser e609. Ran the Vypyr through a quick audition once I got home. I'd fiddled with it for awhile last week at...

Was wondering if anyone has had a chance to try out a new plug called "redoptor." The demo video is done by a russian dude with a reeeeeally thick accent, so it's hard to understand at times. Anyone have an english explanation of how you think it sounds? edit: If anyone else is interested...

I was trying to put together a gear list, and have zero cash for outboard gear. My interface choices are down to the PreSonus Firebox and Mackie Satellite. I've used both interfaces for instrument recording, but haven't had a chance to record vocals yet. Does anyone have any input on which is...

I recently bought a Vox AD30VT (the modeling amp), and it has a line out jack. Since I have no decent mics/rooms for recording, I was wondering what the effectiveness of having the line out run to my recorder, then adding a cab sim in Reaper. Any specific suggestions on what plug to use and...

Just wondering something... I was doodling around at Guitar Center last weekend, looking for a smaller guitar that a student in our church youth group could possibly learn on. I grabbed a Baby Taylor (the 3/4...I think the big baby is either 7/8 or 15/16), and I was completely stupified at how...

My church used to record our services straight to a CDR deck, but it was really old and now is unreliable. They asked me (and my incredibly limited knowledge) if I could find a better solution. They already have 2 soundboards, one for the house and one for recording. All we need to do is run...

This might sound like a dumb question, but I've looked on the Reaper Wiki, and also poked around the program, but can't find an answer to this: Is there any way to automate effects? For example, let's say I have a vocal track, and I want some really thick Reverb on just one part of it. Is...

Just got my new amp (yay!). It's a VOX AD30VT. Not the greatest, but I'm slowly building up an equipment list. At the moment, the only guitars I have are a les paul knockoff (jay turser) and a Schecter C-1 Classic. In order to fully experiment to "find my sound" as it were, or just to maybe...

I'm trying to decide between a superchamp XD and one the Vox AD30VT. Both have the effects on them, different amps, and still are tube-driven. Any thoughts?

Does anyone know where I would find info on how much an old Peavey session 400 amp is worth? Any info is greatly appreciated.

I downloaded a demo of Waves GTR today, and had an interesting problem when I installed it. I brought up the effect on the track I wanted, and when the display window opened...it was blank. Right-clicking at various points gave me different menus, and the actual signal processing was...

If I were to buy a toneport (probably UX1...I'm short on cash), and also a VST plug (amplitube or waves for example), can I use the VST with the UX1? Or do I have to use the line6 software that comes with the Toneport?

This may sound like a dumb question, but I'm looking to buy a new acoustic sometime (hopefully) soon. The question I have is about body style. What differences in sound do you get with different body styles? E.g. Jumbo, Dreadnought, Mini-Jumbo, etc. Is it more of an "EQ" change (like...

I'm new to the recording game, and was wondering about plug-ins. Since I have no money/space/etc. for multiple amplifiers or drum sets, can reaper support any VST(i) plug ins? I'd really like to try it with amplitube/gearbox and the like for guitars and EZDrummer/BFD and the like for drums...

I did a forum search for amplitube and didn't feel like searching through 11 pages of threads to see if this question has been answered already, so I apologize if the subject has been brought up before... Let me say first of all that I am on a strict budget. My computer is not an optimum...
