    Drums bogging down firepod

    the only special thing i did was install the asio4all driver, installed reaper, and seem to be recording fine. I will update this as the recording process goes along so maybe I can help fellow victims of the ricoh chipset

    older imac for recording only?

    So I have a newer laptop with crappy ricoh firewire in it. I was wondering if it would be wise to buy a cheap (>$500) g4 imac to just do recording of tracks on. I'd record through my firepod and at most be doing 6-8 total tracks recorded. I would then just edit on my nicer laptop capable of...

    Drums bogging down firepod

    I'm guessing there's no way to just replace my firewire card. arg.

    Drums bogging down firepod

    Hi all, I have just started a home recording project and am having problems with dropouts while I record drums. My setup is a firepod with six mic inputs active to my HP dv6448se (which I bought not knowing to look at the brand of firewire). As I record in Sonar 6 the recording freezes after...

    Hartke ha4000 question

    Sorry, I should have phrased that better. The amp won't play anything at a lower volume, it's like I have to send a shock to the amp to get sound through, but after that I can play at whatever volume. I need to fix this cause I don't necesarily like having to crank the volume up to get it to...

    Hartke ha4000 question

    Hi all, I have a question concerning my ha4000. Whenever I plug it into a new speaker cab and turn it on I have to turn the volume up about a quarter way and play on my bass before it sends a signal through the cab. I thought it was the cab I was using at first, but it's done this with all...

    Do you give names to your basses?

    I started calling my bass this after my teacher for Jazz Band tried playing my bass and called it this. Yamaha TRB-6P = "The Two by Four" (refering to the giant neck.)

    Advice for My Rig

    Hey, I've been having some problems with my rig lately, but I'm not sure as to whether they are actually damaging to my speakers. My rig is a Yamaha TRB-6P fretless, running into a Hartke 4000 head into a Sonic 610 cab. The sound I like to play has higher mids and is somewhat bitey, but still...

    Yamaha TRB5P Bliss

    I just put a used trb6p fretless on layaway. It has a great neck, great string spacing (very wide) and it sounded better then the warwick 6 string fretless corvette i was also considering. The only downside is it doesn't have the great looks of the warwick :hmm: but it's still an amazing bass...
