roland interest

Anyone know if there is a roland forum out there where we could nab up a few users to get this forum going lol! I know Roland is a pretty popular product but they don't seem to branch out much in the daw world. I realize our site is just starting but I have never seen any Roland users on any forum. What ya all think? Are they selling? :cool:

Recording basic tracks sans-drummer

I need to record some songs where the drummer may not be around to do the initial tracks. I was thinking that I would bring in the acoustic guitarist (songwriter) and record that with a click track minus the vocal, then add the drums, bass, vocals, etc. at a later date. I was wondering if I will lose some of the feel of the song this way and if this is not recommended.
thanks,

Altec 436b problem

There's no "Tech Help" forum on this site, but this is the "Gear" forum, so I'll try here. I have several pieces of old Altec tube gear, all of which have been put back into "like new" condition. Unfortunately, the compressor, a 436b, has started distorting no matter how I set the single gain control and no matter what level signal I send into the input.

phase

What is the quickest way to check phase on a couple of mics (eg. drumset) on a mixer without a phase button? I have made a short mic cable with reverse polarity to put in series one cable at a time. Is there anything that you could quickly plug into the insert on each channel for checking phase? I'm using a Mackie 24*8.

Thanks
Mike
