and those tube mics appear to be gone now... The active ribbon is back though and back at the $99 price. Not as amazing a deal as it was at $25 but still well worth the money. I'll bet the tube mic comes back in a month or two. It was $25 at one point??? Holy fuck! Sounds good yeah? I wonder if jus...

Hey Mike How do you deal with the console/pro tools switching business if you want to do punch ins or something like that? Where you want to hear what's on the track up to a point and then start recording? I've only ever used UA interfaces a few times and while I really like a lot about them the con...

Im running 9 in the studio and Artist on my laptop. The laptop is an older MacBook Air that isn't supposed to be compatible but is fine. Features in artist make me wish the studio rig was more recent. Clip gain is a big game changer. I had to buy a bunch of plugs for the laptop but it really made.me...

Seems I tend to be using the SoundToys EchoBoy a lot lately in places where I'd normally be using the Effectron. The EchoBoy has a fuck-ton of different parameters and flavors that can be selected, it's a pretty bad ass plug in. https://www.soundtoys.com/product/echoboy/ Plus 1 on Echoboy. I use it...

I think the Bowie record is an Eventide Harmonizer. I'm trying to think of a record that I really leaned into the Effectron with...... Maybe the organ in the second part of this tune? https://fembotsband.bandcamp.com/track/a-million-dead-end-jobs Also, the drums in the middle of this one have a heav...

Not so much. The modulation section give you chorus and flange sounds and then very quickly gets into bonkers territory.

If you ever find one let me know. The effectron is a favorite of mine. I've got 2 in the rack and they gat a fair bit of use. So much of the fun with them is hands on and tactile though. I don't know how you'd replicate that. Nick, yes there are fixed delay times but the delay factor control that le...

We bought a $199 Fender Squier "Tele 51" and had the shop string it up Nashville style. Can't wait to use it on seasons! I haven't even plugged the guitar into an amp yet!tele nashville 1.jpeg Nice! High strung guitar is always a great instrument.to have in the studio. Mine ends up getting used on ...

Jamman for the win. My partner and I had a rehearsal yesterday using the jamman and it worked quite well. I've got parts on order to make an expansion pedal for it so we can swap patches on the fly but even as is it's working. And I just built myself an extension pedal to toggle between samples/loo...

Thanks everybody. I've got a jam man on hold at the local used shop. It was a cheap enough solution that it seemed low risk.

Totally ghetto but try putting the amp on a car tire (no rim).

I do think these are gone now, you can’t even search for the item on monoprice anymore. They seem to be sold out everywhere except Amazon which has them at $88 apiece. Guess I missed the boat on these. There are a number of complaints in the amazon reviews about QC problems & noisy electronics, did...

Just to clarify, I'm looking to trigger existing samples. Any live looping, overdubbing etc is beyond my needs. I need something that I can load the samples onto and have them play when I hit the button/pedal/whatever. Some samples may be looped, some are one shot. Stereo would be great as it would ...
