Pardon the interruption on the wood topic but just received word that #184 is complete and ready for test drive and shiping next week.

Also curious to know what those of you who are home (multitrack) recording are using for software. I've been going through a few free demos trying to figure out the best application before buying. "Fruity loops #9" seems to be quite thorough for the money, lots of bells and whistles. "Multitrack Studio" is a close second.

Coming together nicely!

I'm using propellerheads Record & Reason. Not the cheapest, but some of the easiest to use (IMO) and full of all the bells and whistles you could hope for.

You can get a fully functional version of Record from

The only limit being you can't open any saved songs or export the audio. But you can try it out to you hearts content to see if you like it.

Whilst I'm at it, Tom graced my inbox with these fine samples of Katalox (I think Tapy Tap might have had something to do with this.....)

If anyone is wondering, the Bass is #175, fretless 6, redwood top and bloodwood fingerboard.

And can you believe that bass is HOMELESS!!!

WHAT!!!!!!

 

[WarThumb]

That #175 body is soo nice! I can easely picture a fretted sixer with som of the top woods posted earlier. A fretted #175 with maple neck/fingerboard would be killer!

Also going out for a test drive this weekend. Coming along nicely!

Thanks for the info. Downloaded the trial and worked with it this weekend. Very versatile, straightforward and easy to use. I think I'm overtaxing the sound card tho, started getting some "static" after about 4 recorded tracks. Looking around for an external card next.

Hi,

I am using Logic Express 9 and like it. My last experience with multitrack home recording was a Tascam 4 track cassette recorder back in the '80's. Computer recording makes me feel a bit like the Geico Caveman! I use the Apogee Duet for my interface.

Same here. Midi keyboard, drum machine, guitar, bass, effects, racks, etc. A room full of equipment now compressed into a tiny box. Production has really come a long way.

 

[arcangel6]

Yes, as has the quality. No cross-bleeding, great S/N ratio, etc.

It still amazes me.

That is one of the things I really like about Record, you have total control of what plugs in where, so its like having all that studio equipment, but without the clutter and the need to get on your hands and knees to plug stuff in and out!

 

[arcangel6]

Absolutely, my studio is way less cluttered. For those interesed, I recently replaced my Adam Audio A7's with Genelec 8030's. Both are great NF Monitors but I prefer the Genelec's.
