I like Agile guitars. I have an Agile E1. Not my main axe but i like it and play it quite a bit. Pretty hard to beat for the money.

Probably not a bad idea to have on your equipment. Just make sure it is sized properly according to what loads you are feeding. Personally I use a large ups that I run the majority of my equipment on . If voltage dips or drops out the system switches to battery. Seems a bit safer for the equipment t...

Another plug for the Lucid AD9624 for a 2 channel converter at a decent price. They can be found used rather cheap. I love the Lucid sound. Better than RME IMHO.

Had some issues with the firewire card dying on me in two different units (it was a known issue with the first batch of units out there) but A&H sorted that eventually and haven't had problems in several months now. Not exactly true as I have just found out. I've had my unit just over a week now. G...

I think the site is not bad at all. The one thing I would change and I saw it right away was the green color. Try something different, a color that doesn't stand out so much. Otherwise, a nice site.

I have 4 channels racked here that I used NOS Triad A-57J transformers on the outputs that I found lying around. They sound great ! I don't know if you would find any of these any more though.

I'm an Axe-fx user so my opinion is totally biased since I've never seen , heard or played the eleven rack. I find it hard to even imagine that the eleven rack would come anywhere close to what the Axe is capable of. It's really just an awesome tool and the developer should also be commended for the...

yeah that def doesn't sound bad at all for a live mix. Sounds very usable when you get the raw tracks to work with... I think I'm leaning toward one of these soon.

No actually that will help very little if at all. I've been researching this very same problem and how to correct it. I've been doing a lot of reading on this forum, www.johnlsayers.com. You need mass, and lots of it meaning drywall cut and fit in between the joists, several layers and caulk every v...

I've been looking at this closely, probably going to buy one in a little while, The videos and workflow look great is all I can say. Haven't heard one to know how it sounds though. Also haven't read or heard many complaints at all so that is telling me something. I could really put this to good use ...

guitar cabs all sound different. It depends a lot what amp you are using and also what type of sound you are going for. For versatility and portability I'd say go with a 2X12. I have an earcandy buzzbomb which sounds nice but not my favorite set-up. A mesa theile cabinet loaded with an EV12l combine...

Nice Tascam 320b

I have this up on ebay right now. It's a decent mixer. Doesn't sound bad at all really. I'm sure it won't hang with your higher end consoles but it definitely doesn't get in the way either. Very functional and usable for monitoring and summing at the very least. Has tons of routing options. A well b...
