Re: New PC Config, what y'all think?

Asus Boards are great... My personal experience with mine (P4S8X-X): Trouble with a beta version of the Bios the thing shipped with. I mean this thing would go into super lockdown and crash hard - randomly. I finally pinpointed the problem, flashed the new version - Like Fucking fireworks... Faster ...

Re: ampguy does overdubbing

:?: How much do you drink when you record yourself :?: I mean seriously dude, must you post every freaking thing you record yourself playing? Put forth some effort for christ sake... take some time and write a tune and then produce it. If the take doesn't work out, re record the part untill it does....

Re: is this heavy metal??

Wow! Marked Improvement Ampguy!!! I like the Squeals! Kinda a White Zombie meet's ZZ top feel...

I like your stuff when you put time into it: keep at it man!

One critique: The long format? 3:30 = radio play - 7:30 plus fade = B side tune. probably a long upload too...

Peace

Re: Absolute PC Nonsense

I think you may have the impression that I'm some novice PC hack. I've been setting up and installing PC and Macs for almost 10 years and see the differences daily. I just can't imagine that I'm only seeing the 'bad' pc's, thus my impression that PC's are more work in getting set up and general mai...

Re: Absolute PC Nonsense

So... I guess we all agree that it's a personal taste issue: PC vs. MAC. I personally get alittle fired up when I hear guys bash PC's in general. PC's are cool if you're going to run a few audio apps, but if you're trying to multitask, I really don't think they can even compare to a Mac. Dude, I can...

Dude, One word: GigaStudio. :roll: Yer just jealous! Have any of you PC haters used a system running Win XP? Now, we upgraded Our MACs from OS9 to OSX in a studio I worked in - Nothing but freaking headaches! Oh ya, Hey Panther users, have any trouble installing Waves? :wink: ha, ha... And have you ...

Old School Metal - New Energy!!!

Yo, I was watching some college TV station as I was falling asleep last night, and this video came on by DARKEST HOUR - about shit my pants!!! The production is low budget, and it starts out a little slow - so stick with it, but it's unbelievable how well they synced this thing up... for a bunch of ...

Personally, I believe we've all been handed our stoney faced asses by ampguy AMPGUY: I hope this is true, but just in case you are sincere with this stuff you've been posting: first, you whipped together a few "tunes" in no time at all...

i'm planning on releasing my music on dvd-a :shock: Ampguy, seriously? I think you may be picking up some good directional criticism here. I listened to your clips too, and I'm sorry - but I'm having trouble taking you seriously on any subject related to music production. You might think about savi...
