    Pin Connector in Reaper

    This is something I'm still trying to figure out. Can someone dumb it down for me? What exactly does this do? Say I just want to record one guitar in Input 1 to a mono, or even stereo, track using a VST head an cab configuration. How would I set up my connections differently? I'm sure...

    Mock my abilities! Help Me Get Grades!

    I made a music video for a uni assignment and it would be a massive I LOVE YOU ALL if I got it some views. Now, you really don't have to like it or subscribe unless you genuinely like it, so 20 or so views would be more than enough if you can help out. If nobody likes it then that's fair enough...

    Can it be done? DIY preamp for a Randall

    My METAL AS FOLK head's preamp circuit is fried (totally not my fault) and I'm set on building my own. My question is, how much can I deviate from the original preamp circuit, if at all?

    How do you shop for headphones?

    I just wrote a wall of text, accidentally pressed something and it deleted it all...so I'll keep this short. *minute-long inhale* k. Starting to get pretty serious pretty fast with home recording, plus I'm on a Music Tech course for the next 4 years. So I'm going to need a good pair of...

    Psycroptic: Skin Coffin cover (tribute)

    https://soundcloud.com/basti-grotto/psycroptic-skin-coffin-guitar-cover Apologies if you find it all massively spammy or egotistical. I'm just posting this because it's my first actual cover and because it was quite hard for me. So it's really a kind of landmark of mine which I wanted to...

    Skin Coffin - Psycroptic (first cover)

    ...and why you should use studio headphones to record. I'm relatively new to this all so I wanted to share my first real landmark in home recording. Disclaimer: Yes, I want the ego boost of even just seeing the listens go up in number. I've never really played for/to other people and...

    Reaper latency woes

    Hey all, I was wondering if anyone can enlighten me. I use a demo version of Guitar Rig from time to time and there's no audible latency on there so I think the problem is specific to Reaper's settings. I'm running Reaper for Windows 7 Pro off a (brand new) 3.2 GHz Quad-Core CPU and the...

    First DAW build!

    Soon! But first... Could you give some opinions on my parts list please? I'm quite confident everything's in order but still, I'm sure you know at least a little bit more than I do. Thanks :cheers: PCPartPicker part list / Price breakdown by merchant CPU: Intel Core i5-4570 3.2GHz Quad-Core...

    Casual harassment

    A woman filmed 10 hours of herself walking normally around the city and then made a compilation of every man who called out to her. I think people need to talk about this kind of thing a lot more Discuss. Now, I know for a fact that (astounding though this might be) a lot of women don't...

    Progressive/death metal based in Huddersfield (UK)

    Online could also work :D We're looking for people who yes, can appreciate both brutal and pretty music alike, but mainly people who just like playing and feeding off other people* who like playing. As it stands there are two seven-string guitarists and we've started putting some ideas...

    Recording Build (look at my parts!)

    How am I doing? My budget is around £600 and I will be using this just for recording (aside from the odd everyday uses). Went with AMD because intel works out a lot more expensive and AMD is by all accounts reliable enough for my needs. Any opinions? Thoughts? PCPartPicker part list: AMD...

    Gym-less workouts?

    Anyone do this? So I'm going to start getting fit, buffing up, and all that but I can't afford a gym membership, therefore I'm planning to embark on a DIY mission to unlock as much of my unused physical potential as possible. Luckily enough when I quit rugby 4-5 years ago I somehow managed...

    Guitar setup thread/subforum

    I may have missed it but i did search and haven't found anything to that effect. I think it would be really helpful to have a sticky thread in the luthiery section dedicated to Setup and Maintenance. Apologies if there is one though

    Who gets the rejected customs?

    From what I've seen in the odd thread here it's not unheard of for a customer to be dissatisfied enough with a custom build that they end up sending it back. Correct? So what do they do with these guitars? p.s. dibs if they give them away

    Wanted: drummer in London (online also ok)

    Hi there, We recently started a death metal band with me, a 7 string guitarist, and another bass player who (for now at least) doubles as a pretty decent vocalist. Our influences are mainly along the lines of Cryptopsy, Obscura, Dying Fetus, Spawn of Possession, Suffocation and Beyond Creation...

    £15 to spend...suggestions?

    I got a £15 iTunes thing for Christmas and I'm too scared of spending it on something i'll regret, even though it's good for a whole album or two. Basically I'm looking for a perhaps lesser known band that could use some support and who need to be discovered. Favourite bands are Obscura (I would...
