I have a Behringer MX9000. I have an Alesis HD24. What is the best/easiest method of using all 24 tracks of the HD24? I have 16 tracks through the 8-bus and internal patching of the MX9000. Should I go Direct Out, Mix-B (which I am totally not understanding fully when it comes to the recording/playback routing side of things), or just use the Expander port and add a little mixer? Or what?

Hi GUys,

I am wanting to record a H&K tube guitar head direct via its red box DI out.
However, like all heads of this type its not a good idea to run it without loading it (speaker cabinet connected). I dont want to hook up a speaker box to it since I'm not gonna mic it up, any way around this?

Cheers,,

Hi All,

I have been looking at my gear and wondering if I shouldnt be taking a different tact with my expansion. I am a musician utilising recoring for my own material, but am hoping to expand to better quality as my skills develope doing personal demo's myself and others. .

As some of you know I am running a soundcraft Spirit folio 12/2 mixer into a Tascam DP01 fx/CD.

First Post! Yeah! I'd really like to be able to go direct to mixer with my guitar and still get a metal guitar tone. The products I have been looking at are:

Sansamp TRI-AC
Sansamp GT2
Sansamp PSA 1
Hughes & Kettner Tubeman

I will be setting it up like so:

Alright, now for my next pathetic newbie question.

I would like to put bass down on a project i'm doing, but i don't have a bass
amp. Just a bass guitar i borrowed from my cousin. I'm using the e-mu
1820m and Cubase to record.

Hi,

Hi everyone,

Hey everyone,

I'm on a gear building kick right now, and I'm going to be purchasing some components in bulk for a guitar pedal I'm re-designing and selling to some buddies of mine.

Hi everybody !
which one is better for a Direct recording?
I'm looking for a good rack for recording,
but I have no room to Micing the amps so I want a rack for Direct
recording. and have a good Distortion effects.
Now I find out GT pro,POD pro and GNX3000.
So which one is better? THX!

Ive gone back and forth between the two... I normally go with a bit of both... direct to get some of the highs and clicks, microphone to get some of the girth and low/mids.

however, i've reached a point where i'm not able to improve the tone of any bass i work with. and essentially rely on lots of EQ, compression and even pre-amp plugins.
