Today they have 2 Fender 18.6' instrument cables for $29.99. That's pretty nice if you need some cables or you could hang tight for a pedal or microphone to come up, which they often do.

can't download files. do i need an account. don't want an account.

Just figured it out last night. I noticed only half the session was messed up. There was some spot he oscillated and never returned to the correct pitch. So every take after that was a step high.

Okay thanks I will try that too. It does have a pitch wheel.

Yeah that's what I was thinking. I don't think I've done anything to adjust the pitch or anything and don't see any controls anyways. And being this is my first time trying this all the settings should have basically been stock. Keyboardist is playing MAudio Keystation 61es midi via USB. (Haven't tr...

I'm trying to record into Sonar 6 via midi and rewiring from Reason. Basically when our keyboardist plays and Sonar is idle everything is okay, but as soon as Sonar begins to play or record it steps up one step.

Thanks, yeah I searched for that. I just realized that we have an old yamaha 10" wedge monitor laying around with a blown horn. I disconnected the horn, hooked up an instrument cable to it, ran that through a DI into the board. This sounds pretty good so no need to buy more stuff.

The reason being is that your Tascam has stereo RCA outputs and 1/4" outputs and both are unbalanced. Running through this recorder is going to degrade your s...

any opinions on the other national albums? i'm tempted to get them all... I've only got Alligator and Boxer. I love them both but think Alligator is a little better. There's some weird stuff going on with the air that sounds funny to me in the recording. Like air cutting in and out on the over dubs...

Sell it on ebay. Make it someone elses problem.

This combination occurs more often that you might realize.

haha rich kids...i blame their fathers in most cases.

Recording: Recorded a young band who's bass player didn't know how to play bass. I had to give him lessons and teach him the song and in some cases play the songs. The band had no idea he wasn't playing anything. Dude had a Music Man Stingray though. haha Live sound: Did a dude's wedding. Some aunt ...
