The best thing I ever learned about playing/recording bass is to PLAY SUPER SOFT. Turn up your gain until you barely have to touch the strings and your sound will even out.
Typically, on bass tracks, I'll compress it a bit and then throw a limter over it to keep steady.

I've been checking out these new firewire mixers after using an Onyx 1640 for a while. They all seem very similar.

I've got a pal that deals tubes and stuff. He loves the tube poweramps and just bought two McIntosh tube amps (m200??) that Grateful Dead used to use. They were featured in some Vintage tube magazine or something. I was like WHAT. He just got these really cool speakers from a theater that was closin...

If your looking for hi-gain guitar sounds, pick up a used Peavey 5150 for around $500 and get a 4x12 loaded with Celestion Vintage 30's. The Mesa Standard 4x12 cabinet is recommended for it's larger size. Also, check into the Peavey Windsor. It very very similar to a JCM800 but will only cost you $4...

I can't tell you what to expect, but I'd like to hear about how it goes. Same here! There was actually an article in Tape Op a few issues ago that discussed using old recording formats and this was one of them. Not really a how-to article, but just talking about an artist that used these old format...
