    Guitar Setup Question - Valid unexpected modification?

    I have a very old but solid guitar that I've been playing for nearly many many years. I bought it used, so it's even older than that. Now in all that time, I never really had the guitar set up. Yes, I know, that's bad. However, it played fine, and being my first guitar, I didn't have any...

    JBL LSR25P Problem - advice wanted

    I own a pair of JBL LSR25P active monitors as part of my home recording setup, but hadn't used the setup for quite a while. When I powered it up today, one speaker (left) seemed to be working fine, but the other (right) was running at an extremely low volume. I tweaked the computer output...

    Is Aardvark out of business?

    Hello, all. I've been away from the boards for a while (new ones look quite nice, and run much more smoothly, by the way... nice job!), but I have a couple of questions relating to my Aardvark Direct Pro 24/96 sound card, and I hope someone may be able to answer them. Is Aardvark (sound card...

    Pro Audio 9 Track Slider question

    In CWPA 9.0, is there a way to adjust only one slider's values, without locking in data for all the other tracks?

    Help with QS7.1 and Cakewalk PA9 MIDI

    I've been trying to set up MIDI compositions using the Mix mode and assigning voices to each channel, then recording them in Cakewalk Pro Audio 9. The problem is, when I play the keyboard to record one sound, it plays them all. I did go through each channel and assign KEYBOARD to OFF, and MIDI...

    MIDI Mayhem - Pro Audio 9

    I've been trying to use MIDI with Cakewalk Pro Audio 9 and my Alesis QS7.1. To a certain extent, I've been successful, but I'd like to streamline the process a bit. With the Alesis QS7.1, if you want to play MIDI using multiple sounds, you use a Mix (multi-channel sound collection) and play...

    I have a couple of JBL LSR25P studio monitor speakers that are about 2.5 weeks out of the store. With all of the other DAW equipment turned off, I listened to the two speakers at full volume, with nothing coming through them. One of them has an electronic "buzz", and both of them have a faint...

    POD 2.0 - Swiss Army Knife or One-Trick Pony?

    I've recently been considering picking up a Line 6 POD 2.0 for guitar recording. My question is, is the POD 2.0 only good for guitar, or can it be used for other applications as well, such as bass guitar and vocals? I know that maryslittlesecret (from 30SoS) uses it for bass as well as guitar.

    Anything out there like this?

    My present guitar is an old Vantage Avenger I picked up used at a local music shop a while back. It's a great guitar. I've been glancing at guitars off and on recently, and have noticed that nothing out there seems to offer the same configuration as the Avenger. FEATURE 1: Double-humbucker...

    Event PS-6 or JBL LSR25P studio monitors?

    In the great and noble Quest For Monitors, I seem to have narrowed it down to two primary choices - the Event PS-6 and JBL LSR25P monitors. Both are powered monitors under $600, with the PS-6s costing a little more than the LSR25Ps. First, what I've noticed by listening to them. The LSR25P...
