    Rewire Stereo Cab To Mono

    I have an Avatar 4x12 cab, with V30s and G12Hs. I really like the cab, but it doesn't have an input for mono. It only has 2 inputs on the back, one for left and one for right. This is causing me problems with my current setup, as I'm having to crank my power amp higher than I'd like to...

    https://soundcloud.com/nineinchnails/came-back-haunted-2013 One of the more interesting things that's become more apparent about Nine Inch Nails and Reznor is how much Broken, TDS, and The Fragile were really divergent from what he probably intended. Everything from With Teeth on is much...

    USB2 vs.FW vs. USB3 vs. TB...

    Upgraded my computer's mobo and cpu. Down side of this is that I currently have no firewire inputs for my Focusrite Saffire Pro 24. So, I'm trying to decide if I should keep the focusrite and get a new FW card (many of them actually seem to be retardedly priced as far as PCI-E cards go), or if...
