Hi all
Been awhile since my last confession, I mean post. :-)
I just put together a site to get some new business with.
It's my online session guitarist site.
I've done session work around my area & I'm hoping to extend my boundaries!

My setup: Guitar Tracks 1.02 on Win XP
Sound Blaster Audigy 2 Platinum Ex

My problem: I have tracks of drums and bass
that I dragged in from a sample CD. When
I go to record my guitar with simultaneous
record/playback, the new track contains
the guitar plus the drum and bass tracks!
Am I doing something wrong?

Howdy

For those tech geek guitar players.

Hi guys!

I guess this isn't the first time anyone asks this question. What shall I do about my recorded guitar sound, it really sucks. I playing through a custom built tube amp and 4x12

and a TC G major, I guess the only bad in the rig is me...

Any suggestions on getting a super tight, heavy guitar sound (ie new deftones, tool, chevelle, etc.)? I have a semipro recording studio so I don't, by far, have all the best gear, but I'm sure it can make the guitars sound pretty good with what I have if I knew what I was doing. My problem has always been too much "shhhhh" and not enough balls/warmth/punch.

I have a Korg D12, and can get some nice clean almost acoustic sounds when going direct, but would liek to be able to get the sound I hear when I play through my amp. I use a single 15" sealed cab for my guitar. I really like the sound I hear when seated not far from my amp. What type of mic would be best for placing where my ears would normally be? I currently only have an SM-57.

Hi

I've been recording guitars using the following setup -

surf guitar -> bug muff -> Behringer eurorack mx802a -> pc (Samplitude)

Somehow it doesn't sound quite as natural as I'd like it to. I've got a solid-state Peavey ~80W amp and a smaller Marshall 9v practice (toy) 'amp'.

I have a back room in my studio that is used as a gear docking area or back the van into etc to unload gear. the walls around it are sound proofed. I want to use it to put another guitar cab in. I was thinking of just making a closet with 8" insulation on the top, 2 sides and bottom and just pointing the amp into it. Will this work or should I build a whole iso cab?
