Maybe this is the wrong forum. I bought a bass cause I have been out of town for a while. I bought a cheap one like for $80. Just to practice. (It's a squier 4 string P bass) Now I need to go back home, and I remember on the way here the plane was really small, and I am pretty sure Im...

Hello, I have a question about power. I am not too familiar with this. In the bars I played so far. In one I connected my amp into an extension (owned by the bar), maybe it was not a power surge. In another i plugged in straight to the wall. Well it was more like an outlet with 4 plugs...

I don't know why people don't like behringer. Is it made in China or something? or is just plain bad quality? i have a couple of pedals from behringer and they work as good as boss. I don't know about mixers though, as I never owned one. If people say is bad then is bad

i got one of my basses with a frozen truss rod too. I left it in the car, during January I think. I went to a guitar factory which is close to where I live and one of the guys who is also a design engineer or something like that was telling something about the breaking point of the material and...

I used to play in a band that had a DJ guy with a turntable and a synth. Kind of like the guy from Portishead. It was very cool, but the guys took a lot of mind expanding "vitamins" so i soon quit. But I learned a lot, like - Make sure the DJ is not playing bass in the synth, otherwise is...

i think is funny how you think you played and then listen to yourself and you can tell how good or messed up you played. You can try and listen to yourself 1 or 2 takes and see how much you have to improve. Either your playing or setup your gear. Although they can fix you in the mix, you have...

I joined this band recently, and I have been playing their songs. Actually all of the songs are by the singer. After learning all of the songs and playing for a while, I said I would like to bring some of my songs. Now that all of the songs that I played with them, some I like, some I...

I wanted to add some overdrive to my bass and of the band members gave me an OD for a guitar When I connected it, yikes what a feedback i almost go deaf. The volume knob was only at 12 o clock, I had to turn left almost all the way off. Then I was fine, but when I was playing I lost a...

are u buying one? how much money you got? solid state or tube? i have used the markbass brand and it's pretty good for jazz. even marcus miller has a signature amp for them

why dont you just buy a cheaper fretless bass and change the pickups

In my eternal quest for tracking drums first, I went to all of the replies to my questions and I am getting it. I need a mixer and a headphone amp. Connect 1 output or 2 of the mixer into the 2 inputs of the Mbox 2, connect the other output of the mixer into the headphone amp. Play the...

thanks, i think maybe i will go with the mixer. Can you recommend something new or used and whats usually their "market" value. When you said into the inputs of the Mbox, to which do you refer to: - Input1 and 2 (analog) DI or Line or Mic? or - S/PDIF I never used a mixer, but I am pretty...

I have a Protools with an Mbox2 The mbox 2 has: - 2 analog inputs (you can use instrument or mic) - S/pdif, In/Out - 2 monitors out - Midi, In/out How can I add more analog inputs? How do I connect a mixer? And what would I need one for? (My main problem) What do I need...

51m0n, "In the real worlld the guide track is multitracked too" Good to know this. Cause I guessed on a previous thread they missed this. This makes more sense. Since I have a portable recorded I am just recording everything with 1 mic. So it's not multitracked. This was my scratch track...

I followed the suggestion of recording drums first. I went to a band's practice and recorded their whole set with a portable recorder. Then I added each song into a track, that the drummer could listen to. Now the drummer complained all the time that he could not hear the song too well...
