I am doing some drum tracks Sat. and because I have no isolation rooms I am tracking bass and guitar direct. The guitarist is using amongst others Rte 66 overdrive/compression pedal. http://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/Route66

who uses them? do you like it? why or why not? have you used many other di boxes? how do the ProD1 and ProD2 compare to other boxes?

thanks in advance,

Evening! not sure if that has been touched on before but i haven;t found anything yet. Not sure if its possible and/or wise to record directly to an external Hard Drive?

Now, I never, ever thought this would be possible.

A very powerful new tool.

The question that comes to mind: Is this plugin going to get abused? My guess would be an overwhelming yes.

Scary!

EDIT: Changed the subject for future reference.

Hi guys. I thought you guys might be able to help me out.

I use a Line 6 Guitarport into my Mac and then use the Line6 Garageband plugin to get my guitar sound. And I really like it...BUT

Hello,

This is my first post on here so don't be too harsh :lol: I'm looking to get into recording specifically vocal trance but I really have no idea where to start. Normally I try to search as much as I can before I do something like this but I have to admit, all of this stuff is way over my head.

Hi, Being the electronics novice that I am, I actually put together a really great sounding direct box for my recording basses (passive and active) using a UTC transformer 30hz-20k response, +8db, 50k secondary, 150/250/600 primary. I prefer the UTC's 150ohm output into my LA610 mic input.

I just picked up the amp sim. program Guitar Rig for my Pro Tools setup. I'm new to recording electric guitar by direct input, so can anyone give me any pointers?. I have a Digi 002, so do I just plug straight from the guitar into one of the 4 Digi002 input's that have a preamp?..

Recently i got a mac and one of the reasons i did so is for garage band. but anyways i recorded one song, did all the parts. it came out great. But now I'm working on a new song. what I'm trying to do is plug my 1960's fender amp into my mac so i can get the same distorted sound that the amp produces. the amp has a plugin the back for EXT.

my friend and I got in an argument about whether recording guitars direct is a good idea. He thinks that its better to use a mic and crank the volume on his cab than using a direct box with his amp (he thinks a lot of distortion comes from overdriving the speakers of the cab). I keep telling him that it doesn't matter, but I need some backup :)
