Tube Distortion or. ?

Okay, I know it's not the greatest example of a good recording out there so don't flog me for this, but, My Chemical Romance has an album called "Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge." The vocals, in many of the doubled parts, have this "distorted," break-up, sort of...thing that happens to them. I have had many bands ask how that effect is accomplished. I'm kinda tired of wandering in the dark.

How often do clients use your in-house instruments?

Hey guys,

How often do clients use your in-house instruments when they come in to lay down tracks.

I know its good business to have backups in case of the unforseeable. Do you have any stories good or bad about a time when you had to bust out the house instruments.

Thanks,
-Chris

Amp head direct to sound board?

I have an electric guitar with a pedal board of various stomp boxes. For a while now, due to convenience, I've been going direct to the sound board from the effects through a DI-box. The sound was not bad, but I sat down the other day and compared my direct sound to my sound with an amp, and it's convinced me to carry my amp around with me again.

Pushing Digi 003 to HD quality

As I don't have the budget to invest in a Pro Tools HD setup, but still would like my sessions to be easily compatible with HD-equipped pro-studios, I am planning to do something else. Since the tracks counts, midi possibilities, and the resolution (up to 96khz) of Pro Tools LE have gone up I am seriously considering buying a 003 Rack + Factory and pimping it up.

Least sophisticated equip, software, & setup for simultaneous MIDI & voice

Looking to record keyboard (MIDI) and vocal simultaneously at home. Have had Tascam 122 (never upgraded from Cubase that came w/it in 2005), a $60 Shure microphone, & Windows XP. Biggest question is how to record both simultaneously onto separate tracks. Do I need an interface to do both? Are there interfaces designed to do both simultaneously (as the 122 doesn't seem designed to)?
