    Still looking for Robin Bass...

    Go look in the back of your closet and pull out that old Robin Freedom, Ranger, or Medley Bass made in Houston Texas by Robin Guitars. Prefer years 1988-1998 with OHC, but will look at any. GO DO IT NOW! Lets see what you got. Koy West Texas **Fender FSR Silver Sparkle Bass **Carvin LB70...

    How about this gizmo called the JamHub?

    This is a gizmo that came out at NAMM this past august. It looks like a great rehearsal tool, but I was looking at it more for recording purposes. Havent quite figured out how to work it with drums yet, unless it was electronic drums, but take a look at this thing. Im thinking what would make it...

    First recording..So, how can we improve it?

    Ok, I assume you are talking about the recording that was posted. No, there was no isolation in this recording, all right there in the same 16X14' room. Bass cabs are stacked. The big bass drum mike was placed inside the bass drum, pointed right at the strike point about 4-6" away. Toms & snare...

    First recording..So, how can we improve it?

    all the members of the band concur with you. Im just not sure how we are going to do that. Especially the lead guitar. Has a real tinny, hollow sound. We are currently working on a multi track version, so maybe with all the components being independantly processed, we can get the volumes more...

    First recording..So, how can we improve it?

    Ok, all mistakes aside, here is a live 1 take recording we tried at practice. We are in a big hollow room, and everything is mic'ed. What should I do next? "Dirtville Blues" <----Click to listen both guitars are mic'ed with a shure SM57. Lead guitar amp is a Fender Deluxe Reverb 2X12, and the...

    Home recording for "Dummies"

    I have posted a couple of times trying to get information on home recording. but got no support. Guess maybe I wasnt asking the right question. So I will try this one: Can anybody recommend a read that would help someone just learning about home recording? I have looked at a few, but the ones...

    Yamaha MG16/FX Mixer...

    Hi all, my band just aquired one of these, and I have been named "engineer" on this upcoming project. Guess maybe because I have the MTR! I am no sound engineer, so I am a little overwhelmed. We got it primarily to mix the drums going into the recorder, but I have since discovered that when...

    Silencing the Hum...

    Hey everyone, I have a 2004 4003 Ric that produces a noisy hum. It is not a ground issue, it is a shielding issue. I have procured the copper tape for the back of the pickguard, shielded wiring, and the conductive paint for the cavities. As I am new to this process, I am wondering if anyone...

    Another NBD!

    Just got my new Ric! 2004 4003 Jet-Glo Rickenbacker Bass. I am incredibly pleased to add this to my collection! Came in absolutely perfect, except for some scratchy knobs. Going to clean those and add a Hipshot bridge and a new set of strings and she will be good to go! Always wanted one of...
