What is the best way to mix clean guitar? The guitar parts are mostly ska upbeats and there are a few clean guitar riffs.

I'm looking to record my guitar. could someone give me a suggestion on a cheap and easy way to record my guitar (onto my computer) so i dont lose where i am.
i have a line 6 spider 3 head and is has a record out, so is there a program i could just record my guitar onto?

I have been using a POD for guitar and just a preamp for bass as a DI. I use a SOLO 610 for the POD and an LA610 for the bass.

I plugged in one of my guitars and amps today and wailed away full open. Although it's maybe 18 watts it was loud and glorious. I did things I just could not do direct with the POD.

*Very Low Budget :)

What happened to the Guitar and Bass Forum?

I can't find it anymore.

Hello!

I was wanting to know if investing in a furman line conditioner, and running my recording rig through it, will help in eliminating the noise issues I'm having with electric guitars and basses. I can quite safely say that the guitars in question are reasonably new, and well made, and have their wiring in order. This is for DI recordings only.

Ok, so I'm putting these here because the snare clips are stickies. If this needs to be moved elsewhere, please do so and accept my apologies.

I've noticed that on some songs I listen to that have acoustic guitar parts in the beginning, there is usually a nice crisp clicking sound from the strings. Its almost just as loud as the actual sound of the chords being played. Anyone know what Im talking about?

Alright so I'm having a lot of trouble getting a good distorted sound. I don't know if it is the mics, Micing techniques or just poor eqing. I'm playing through a Mesa Dual Rectifier and getting a great sound that way. Im using one sm57 which goes through a PreSonus firepod and i just use Cubase le's built in eq's. Any suggestions?

Hey, I'm trying to record some acoustic guitar but have some problems. I'm using a guitar with a built in microphone that is hooked up to an external soundcard Edirol UA-25. I'm recording in Cubase SX3. The problem that it seems no matter what I do the recording comes out with extremely low gain, the track show almost only a thin line unless I play really strongly.
