So, I'd like to get a 'real' audio setup going. I don't need huge features - I think I could live with two audio inputs (like the apogee duet), but what I really care about are, first off, stability (of drivers, mainly), and quality, both hardware and audio. What should I go for? I have a Presonus F...

So, I've got a band in DC. And my housemate's got a band. And my friend from across the street. We're all improvising practice space, and that's going okay, but the questionable looks from housemates and the smiles of neighbors may not last long. So, if anyone is in the same situation, or has some a...

My setup is typically quite simple - I just run electric -> pedals -> e2 -> (pedals?) -> amp. Also, occasionally electro-acoustic / keys in place of the electric, and I haven't had any high-noise problems.

It works as a volume pedal when I use my guitar through it - it's not connected to the organ directly, if that's what you're asking?

It came with a volume pedal which I've tried in a few combinations with the outputs (which are quite confusing, there are three, one labeled 'bass' and I think one labeled 'output'?) I'll fuddle around with that more perhaps?

I'm not expert (well, my Headrush E2 has always been practically silent, although I haven't recorded with it), but... have you tried a different power supply? I would guess you have, or your supply is already sweet and regulated and all, but if you haven't, dirty, weird power is a huge reason for no...

I've been fixing up a Doric Combo organ for a while now and quit for a while because there's a problem with treble notes being much quieter than bass notes. Now, the Doric is famous (well, actually obscure, but) for having separate volume controls for ranges of keys, but even if I equal out bass and...

Hey, So, I got a freakin awesome combo organ - a Doric (similar to Ekosonic), and I've been fixing it up, to the point where all of the keys and most of the voices are functioning fine. However, there seems to be a serious volume difference between the bass-range of keys and the treble, something th...

(If I chimed in too late for batch 3, could I get on batch 4 if there is one?)

Me too please!

So I've just finished up the EP that I've been posting gradually here - it was a real sprint at the end because some bandmates couldn't record until 4 hours before the studio closed for the summer, but we pulled it together. http://frenchletter.bandcamp.com/ And, yep, I'm planning on remastering a t...

Sounds great.

I'm going to give the guitar another shot, but before I do that - would it be totally horrible to speed up the drum track? Would that sounds completely fake? I don't know if I have enough time to get the drums re-recorded.

All right! Track #2 on deck, thanks a ton for the comments on the first track, they've really helped me tweak it. This is a pretty minimal track, just drums, bass, guitar, and vocals. I'd like it to be kind of funky (of course) and am not sure about whether it should even be a high-quality recording...

Hmm, odd - I'm monitoring on good monitors, decent headphones, and then testing on laptop speakers, and I could hear quite a bit of bass on this, but that might just be me - I think I'm a little too aware of the mechanics of this track, it's interfering with a clear head+ears. The drummer has a kick...
