Re: Drum Editing, Pro Tools style
totally worthwhile, and pretty fast if the song was tracked to a click or along with sequences...
if not...
another story.
oh and try it with a lot of bleed from the guitar mics!

Re: Itunes music service

someone is going to be upset about streaming then. i bet it will be legally classified as "broadcasting" and people who do it will get in trouble for operating without a liscence.
do it while you can.

Re: Best Dynamic Mics
some beyer advice from steve albini: (from a famous RAP post) I have read this thread with interest, and I have to agree that Beyer makes a great range of mics.

Third act: ignore all your questions because the world is buried beneath 2000 years of ice and it doesn't matter anyway.

Re: Stupid question - Can guitar pedal take Line Inputs?
line level signals sometimes behave a little differently in the circuit. but it wont kill anything... so try it out. sometimes you will get some small noise and hum issues... nothing catastrophic. i will tell you in advance that once you start buying guitar pedals for your keyboard it is hard to sto...

Re: You weren't kidding!
what bugs me about the audiophiles i know is that they appear to care about music, can talk a lot about a passion for sound, but it all rings hollow. here is a quote from good old veblen's theory of the leisure class that i think explains the motivation of the audiophile: This growth of punctilious ...

Re: The young hipsters are killing me....
