any recommendations for a good pedal like that?

anyone has any idea what effect is being used around the 3rd min of this video?

electro voice you mentioned the extra wire in the walkman could serve as a play/pause button. could you hand out more details as to how it works? is there a pedal to play/pause tape that one could purchase?

not sure i get your suggestion vvv, i mean the loops are already recorded into the loop station, and to record the whole performance into a walkman from onto the stage seems like a wierd choice. i think it's used to add an atmosphere into the background, white noise etc... to make it more of a space...

yeah makes sense. much thanks.

thank you very much kind sir.

any idea what the walkman serves as?

hello people, first of all here's a photo for you: http://farm1.staticflickr.com/98/258232611_28388a2b15_o.jpg now, except for the boss dd, the rc loop station (i guess) and the walkman (which by the way does anyone have any idea what purpose it could serve on stage?), could you identify the rest of...

i'm totally new to this so please don't rely on my assumptions. i found out that my main problem was in mixing. once i used the compressor to gain up the tracks it sounded much better. i'm using a 57 and i do need to gain the mic level almost all the way up but actually i don't think a mic pre amp w...

like you i've just started recording analog so here are a few tips so i've learned so far, first, try checking the hiss is actually recorded. i know that i get that hiss as well when i'm recording but it plays back a lot more cleaner. as for the gain problem, i'm still fighting with it as well, it r...

yeah that would be awesome. i just watched his videos on "ask lynda". very interesting and helpful.

no offense taken snarl, i know just what you mean. i guess recording an acoustic guitar is not that easy as i thought it to be before i started, but i'll keep trying until it sounds okay to me. and don't get me wrong i don't want it to sound perfect or anything... far from it. i just want the guitar...

thank you folks. i'm relieved to know that the output signal should be less, really. i will try all of the above for sure. i guess i need to dedicate some time to proper mixing. just the hi/lo pass i've been messing a bit with on reaper looks like will solve most of the unwanted low frequencies. i w...

okay i got a sample for you guys and a screenshot. http://soundcloud.com/tapeopsamples/acousticsample http://s1300.photobucket.com/user/amirshtaierman/media/acousticsample_zps936ced7b.png.html you should know that it's my best attempt so far recording acoustic guitar. i still had the mic gain all th...

hey bro shark, both on the tascam and the lexicon lambda i'm transferring through you could get a decent output through the headphones, only when i'm done and im playing it on my computer speakers without the headphones (which have a really strong ouput) i realize how low the output is and when i ga...

Hello guys, so i've just started recording on tascam 244. i'm using an sm57 to record acoustic guitar (i know a condenser should be much better...) and i always have to crank the gain almost all the way up to get a decent signal. i'm pretty new to this and i always took it for granted that a recordi...
