About a week and a half ago I did the "15 year old bass strings vs. brand new strings" video. It got a ton of feedback, comments, and questions. And, not surprisingly it got a lot of hate comments from those cheap bastards, the bass players. Seriously, normal people people can't think this shit
Another video from Guitcon - I'm hanging out with my good friend, Robert Baker and the developers of the Dual Klonz amp (Andrea Fiorini and Fabrizio Brenchio.) In case you missed it, I did an unboxing of the Dual Klonz amp a few months back. The DualKlonz is an all-analog signal path tube amp
I've been a Schecter fan for about 10 years. I have a HELLRAISER that I use in the studio all the time. Generally when a client brings in a crap guitar that won't stay in tune, or bad electronics, or bad set up. or bad strings or whatever. I'll be like "hey, here's my
Happy Friday!Let's jump right in! I got a question about adding acoustic treatment to a room dorm room (or place you don't own). I touched on this last week- use your closet as a bass trap! It works great! For those of you who missed it, I've included those instructions below the video on this
I have been a longtime RME user. I got my first Fireface 800 way back in 2005. And I've worked with it every single day in the studio until last summer until I switched over to the UFX+. The UFX simply put, is a freaking monster. It tops out at 188 channels. That's 94
Powering these up for the first time was one of those very rare moments where everything suddenly became clear... but let's take a step back for a second. ADAM approached me about doing something back at MusicMesse, and I've had their A7x Studio Monitors sitting around for quite a while. This week I decided
If you're in a bedroom or home studio and probably won't be tracking live drums, an 8 channel unit might not be for you. That's why I asked my friends at Focusrite if they could send me the Scarlett 2i2... so I could test it out for myself and see just what it could do!
Happy Friday! Just a quick reminder- I'm going to be in NYC between October 18th - 21st for the AES Convention.! Hit me up and we’ll get a meet-up going! “I’m so excited… only $225 for a Chinese Celestion, and some Chinese pressboard w0w..!!” - Embree Smith Look, shit is made in China these
Ugh. Bass players. Where to start? You've seen my Rule #2 shirts, right? I digress. Today we have something really cool! An ultra cheap bass guitar that had 15 year old strings on it. I’ve seen a lot situations where a bass player comes into the studio and hasn’t put new strings on, but I don’t
Had a few requests for this one! How do I record voice overs? How do I get my voice to sound so smooth and all that shit? My friends over at Rode send me their Rode NT1-A Complete Vocal Recording kit, which is what I'm using in this video tutorial. I've been a big
