Re: Tracking Unusual Instruments
Cockatiels. I used a ribbon mic (one of the Tape Op group buy mics). I never finished the project. I was going to do a fake New Age album with soothing classical guitar and rain sticks with the shrill hateful sounds of angry cockatiels. Thing is, my cockatiels would go into soothing, sweet songs whe...

It is a short scale bass with lighter gauge strings (low E string is .084 instead of .105 mediums.) I got it because I played a friend's Bass VI and love how many different and really great sounds you can get from it. I didn't intend to start using it as my primary bass, but something to get interes...

Re: BMI, ASCAP fees = lose my gig
Try playing non-BMI/ASCAP tunes. That would be a noble effort, but in venues like restaurants where the patrons are eating and talking, the last thing they want is to be confronted with new songs. I know this sounds idiotic to musicians, but civilians are strange beasts indeed. Sadly, anything that...

Another hooray for the Fender Bullets. A friend had one of those strat body with telecaster neck and 24 in. scale ones. It was beautiful I was bummed when he sold it. Now he regrets it. Which brings me to my latest acquisition, an Eastwood SideJack Baritone DLX. It's being shipped tomorrow. To get i...

Re: Waves goes to V6 finally
I also have an APA-44 connected to my G4 laptop. V5.97 was not at all compatible with this external unit. I only use the APA-44 in ProTools LE mixdown, for IR reverbs and stereo mixbuss comps (LinMb and L3). Hope that this will now work. Oh Oh it appears that my APA-44, costing me $1,200+ 1year 1 m...

How does one, voice an amp? What do you mean by that? If you are wondering what in the amp you can change to affect the sound, it all depends on what you want. Almost everything in the amp affects how it sounds, the circuit, the speakers and cabinet style. For instance, suppose you have an amp and ...

yeah, I wish people would clearly state what tones they like before launching into the old "this rocks" routine. That page is only good for general notions. There are so many factors involved with how a pickup is going to sound that it's nearly impossible to tell how it's going to sound until you in...
