Hey guys,

So the Mackie board I usually use for live sound doesn't have any built in effects, but I would like to use delay on vocals. How do I go about chaining a Boss DD7 delay pedal? Do I use the insert channel? Or just patch it through before it hits the board?

About 3 years ago I was recording at studio with my band and the producer has sort of amp cycle going on.

I'm looking to record without Micing an amp or using desktop/software amp modelers. Would this be possible, correct to do this for signal chain:

Guitar > Guitar Cable > Guitar Rack Preamp (ADA MP1 or Marshall JMP1) > Stereo Cable > Apogee Duet FireWire Interface Line In > MacBook Pro > DAW

The local Guitar Center in my area is having Pro Tools 10 classes. Has anyone gone to one of these classes? Are they any good?

Hi
Did a live recording recently of a friend playing acoustic guitar in a club. Was able to get a clean feed off the PA into my ZOOMH4N.

Can anyone suggest some best practices when working with acoustic guitar in Audition or similar DAW?
What compression, equalization should I use?
How can I reduce some of the harshness and 'buzzing' sounds the strings make?

Hi guys!

A few days ago I heard a engineer saying that the best way to record the guitar amp is putting the cabinet (speaker) up something like a rack, chair, etc.

Is it really true?
Why?
Is there some acoustic problem on this?

Thanks everyone, and sorry for my english.

Volume: 7-8ish
Gain: 2, or up to 2.5ish for metal.
Deep: On
Tone Shift: Off
Ultra Gain: Off

As a Garage guitarest I sometimes play to a crowd. I saw Queen's (tie your mother down) video Brian may starts out playing the rhythm then plays the lead But all the while the rhythm keeps playing in the back ground. There is only him and the Bass player. How does he do this?

Hi there, my friend and I want to begin recording at home. We will be recording/using two guitar parts and two vocal parts (lead and backing vocals).

Hi Everyone,

I was planning on buying a Akai MPD26 MIDI Controller and wanted to incorporate hip hop beats on top of my guitar rhythm that I record. What would be the best software that will allow me to have a diverse amount of hip hop sounds, but also allow me to record like I would normally? Thanks.
