I have a question about the "slinky reverb diy". Is it important to have one of the older metal slinkys or will one of the newer plastic ones do the job?

Re: Where to start on drums

So my questions: (a) if I wanted to teach myself, are there any books/methods/websites that people would recommend or swear by? Think Mel Bay, only better. Mel Bay, only better? I gotta laugh a little at that. Mel Bay has been a good start for more beginning guitarists than we could probably calcul...

Cr1604 vlz problem

Hey all, I have a 1604, about 10 years old, that now has this problem: channels 6 thru 13 won't show up in the main buss. If I put a signal to any of them, the signal is audible in solo mode only. I've opened the case to have a look and note that its all multi-pin connectors. Since this problem affe...

but watch for lawsuits trying to pin liability on the ppl running the servers.
I ask because some "dj's" claim to have 60,000+ songs. Surely some people here engineered or produced a few of those.

While we're on this internet radio subject I have a question thats just slightly off subject. There are thousands of chat servers and tens of thousands of IRC chat rooms. On some of the larger servers there are literally a dozen or more "radio stations" w/ dj's in different channels that play music ...

Interesting commentary- no one wants to buy music, but everyone wants to be a rock star...so that they can then sell no music...where does the 'Rock Star' enigma come from? Right. Except, maybe everybody just wants the superficial sensation of being a rock star which is apparently sufficiently achi...

I have to chime in with this: more than once I've turned down opportunities to do some rap/hip hop engineering for 1 basic reason. From the tiny amount of rap that I've heard, it just doesn't do a thing for me. I don't enjoy hearing it so why would I enjoy working on it? With that in mind, what coul...

OP's question has def been answered, but while we're on the Whammy subject... What is the correct power supply for a Whammy II? I have a Whammy II, recently lost the power supply.

Re: Encouraging your 'legitimate' artist

I would not reject their money (and I am in fact affiliated with BMI). What I'm saying is the artists who aren't at the top of the heap already don't show up on BMI/ASCAP's radar. I know bunches of artists who have tried to get money that was legitimately due them from BMI/ASCAP --they had barcodes...
