    How do the pros get that "modern" metal tone?

    Personally, i like to think in the opposite direction when it comes to amp sims (or real amps, for that matter). I'll rather have a few GOOD sounding amps and cabs, which i know inside out, instead of a bunch of "options", which i don't know how to get the best out of. I have Guitar Rig 4, and...

    Custom build or brand-name desktop

    As EtherealEntity says, you can do it yourself if you know what you're doing. :) Most consumer computer which is not built for audio-specific purposes (HP, Acer etc.) works great for, erhh, consumers. But most of the crap inside is poor quality parts (poor as in poor performance) which only...

    Microphone wrong choice??

    If the new recordings (after you acquired the Baby Blue) sounds the same as the old recordings with the built in Macmic, may i suggest that you should check your DAWs / interface / whatevers connections inside the Mac? See if you still have the macs built in mic selected as recording device...

    Anybody here build their own amp?

    I've built several amps the last year. It's a very addictive hobby! The AX84 kits are very good for beginners (i myself started out with the HiOctane, which is decent). Most of my builds are either from or based of the kits at http://ceriatone.com/. Huge selection, and good service. But my...

    Mesa Recto cabs, worth the £££?

    Who needs those big chunky 4x12"s?? http://www.tube-town.net/ttstore/index.php/cat/c380_TTC-Guitar-Cabinets.html They make very good cabinets, and you can put whatever you want in them. No 4x12"s though. Just a suggestion! :)

Looking forward to the finished project! I'm building an SG to actually, allthough i get the parts made by Warmoth, so it's...

    Program/plugin for mapping/storing MIDI patterns

    I'm into programming drums at the moment, and need some advice. I'm moving to a different city to study, and i have no place for my drums, unfortunately. First, i love Beatcraft for it's easy layout and the possibility to make patterns, play them and store them, naming them for easy access...

    What size is yours??

    Computers and parts are evolving at a rediculous speed nowadays. I use an Intel Core 2 Duo at 3,16 Ghz and 4Gb ram (only 3 or so works in XP) with an MOTU 8Pre interface. Works for most applications. In fact, running several synths at the same time never caused me any trouble. I used to be an...

    I'm wanting to create my OWN drum parts ...

    I use a tablature software called Guitar Pro, in which you can map everything from guitars, synths, drums etc. to midi, then export as midi files. It takes time, but i recommend it!

    Help, this mix is killing me

    Don't have much to say, other than it's a great mix! Much better than i've ever done. :P Though i do agree about the crash being a bit "fizzy", sort of. It doesn't seem to do much in the mix. Great song! :)

    aaarrrrrrrgh!

    Fat_fleet, I have the same problem with my Motu 8pre. I ended up making a dual-boot system with WinXP 32-bit for my recording needs. I don't think it's Reapers fault. It's more likely that the 8Pre doesn't like Win7 yet, or if it doesn't support 64-bit windows in some way (if anyone uses any...

    A warning about Thomann

    +1 in this guy. I've used Thomann for many years, and they've improved greatly over the years. They used to be slow to ship out orders, but recently it only took 6 days from them to my door in Norway. Gotta love that! I returned a mixer once, though it wasn't new (i assume your speaker cab was...

    MARSHALL in a box

    In my opinion, there's several different marshall sounds. But if your looking for that Van Halen "Brown Sound", you could try this one out: http://www.generalguitargadgets.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=105&Itemid=26 If you're into building things yourself, that is. :) I've...
