hi all

I'm using Cubase sx on a powerbook g4 1.33 mhz. i cant seem to run moer than 2 tracks of audio when i use guitar rig, any ideas of squeezing some more juice from this system?

I am a acoustic and electric guitar player/songwriter and am trying to record guitar/vocal ideas into my laptop when I travel. I have a Pentium 4 laptop with 1 GB RAM, a minidisc player and may get a Line6 Guitar Port. Would you recommend an affordable USB preamp? I am trying to save from carrying the least equipment.
Your feedback is appreciated.

I am wondering if it will work to hook an electric guitar into a stereo/receiver's RCA input jacks. I have an adapter that changes a 1/4" jack to the two red and white RCA plugs, but will it even work?

Hey everyone,

I have a wierd problem that I cant seem to fix.

Before I begin heres my setup so you know what I am running.

G4 1.33 Powerbook Aluminum, 768mb RAM
Cubase LE (tried it with sx 1 too)
Firepod

Heres the problem-

Last week I had my system running sweet no noticeable latency, no drop outs, no clicks, no pops, no HEADACHES.

I've been getting ok results recording my guitar direct to my DAW but would like to see if anyone has any suggestions or tips to give it some "air" or "room space". in other words it sounds very dry and in your face.

here is my setup.

guitar/ effects pedals(eq/distortion/chorus/delay)/ tube preamp/ ADA Microcab(cabinet simulator)/ Emu 1212m(sound card).

Has anyone tried doing an X-Y configuration in front and an over the shoulder mic on acoustic guitar?

I know its common to use the X-Y and I know some people use the over the should and one mic in front but has anyone used this combination with good results? Im just curios.

I have a session thursday and I'm thinking about trying this.

Has anyone used the tonelab for vocals and with an acustic guitar.
I have a Tascam tape recorder and a mixer. The sound sounds nice
and the reverb is O.K.
Help

I have recorded a track whith just voice and guitar. I'd like to know:
Can I use the same reverber for both of them? is this the best choice?
What is the best place for the guitar in the mix?

Ive browsed round this site for a while looking for a definate answer to my question. But the content is so strewn about, with no definate answers to my question:

What is a great mic for distorted electric guitar?

Has anyone had any possitive experience with Guitar Modelers like: Amp Farm, Amplitube, etc?

Has anyone been able to get usable guitar tones through them? I have heard about using Amp Farm with lots of other instruments such as vocals and even drums... but havnt heard much positive feedback in regard to actual 'guitar'...

Anyone found any tricks?
