I recently picked up a M-Audio Mobile USB Pre device from a local individual. It came with a driver disk but I had to download the latest drive from their website to work with Windows 7. Now my question is, what software (free preferably) can I use to play my guitar and record?

hey all picking out a tube pre for my cousin, after ruling out the manley, and drawmer tube offerings, i'm pitting these two against each other in this slow narrowing of tube pre's. this will likely go alongside an api 512c and 550b.

the obvious differences are one is a rackmount psuedo channel strip the other is a 500 series pre.

Hey guys,

Maybe someone will find this helpful :)
I did it some time ago.

Hi, i just bought a matched pair of RODE NT55 mic's and a Focusrite 18i8 interface. Im using Garageband. What setting in garageband do i need to adjust for stereo mic recording? Will the recording appear as two separate tracks or just one? Also my monitors are active when i record. I have selected the turn monitors off feature but they are still on. Im not sure how to fix this.

Hi, i need something to create drum and bass sounds as background music for my guitar and vocals. Will the Maschine MK2 be good for this or it this more for DJs ?

I am considering moving my guitar reamping rig to the basement to free up space in my mixing room where it is now. The guitar rig is currently heavily treated in all directions (not an iso box) to stop immediate reflections and give a clearer sound, but the room is somewhat on the small side.

I'm having a hard time with it. I've heard great room tone on many classic albums. But my room tones always sound like a slapback echo, even when I'm just using a reverb. I swear there is no echo/delay being used. I hate that slapback echo on a rhythm guitar! On the classic albums they sound like an "amp in a room".

hey all, just helping my cousin out w/ some new gear purshases, wondering what your favorite chain is for distorted electric guitar. mic is a 57. amps marshall 900, boogie triple rec, peavey 6505. Tonal tendencies range toward slash/van halen/joe walsh, w/ the occasional metal style tone. acoustic, and clean electric already sound decent.

Newbie here!
I need to record my electric guitar onto Audacity and need some advice on audio interfaces.
I'm thinking of buying a line 6 pod HD500 and this has an audio interface on it.
Would there be any difference between an audio interface that I would buy seperately and the audio interface built into the pod?
