    I have a crazy drum idea, but I need advice

    Oh, of course. Sorry, I'm used to the technical term: A fucking hole in the skin. :D

    I have a crazy drum idea, but I need advice

    OK, now I feel old...or stupid.....or both. I've been playing drums for over 40 years. What the fuck is a kick-port?

    Start/stop recording with footswitch ??

    Good points. :) I guess I was assuming (I know, never do that) that the OP comes from "Tape" days and might not have been aware that other options exist. That's the only reason I said "You shouldn't need a foot switch". But, if it's the most comfortable way to work, by all means go for it. :)

    Start/stop recording with footswitch ??

    That's actually what I do. I have a "RECORDING" track, trim what I don't want and move it into the appropriate track.

    Start/stop recording with footswitch ??

    You shouldn't need a foot switch. Look into the punch-in function in REAPER. You can set a pre-roll for as long as you want so that yuou can hit "RECORD" and have all the time you need to get ready.

    FX list has disappeared !!

    Briam, you can probably "grab" the left hand side (Right around where you see those little "+" and "-" symbols). Move your mouse around until it turns into a little hand, and then drag to the right. It just must have got hidden somehow.

    Can I transfer a project created in DAW to TASCAM 488?

    Yeah, I speak fluent French because I grew up and still live in Montreal. But Spanish...I once took a course with a book and a cassette. But, like you say, it's not conversational. You don't learn anything useful. I didn't find myself in many situations where "I have a pencil. My pencil is...

    I'd like some info about ordering from Thomann

    I swear I'm having a deja vu. I could have sworn you started this thread about a month ago. Must have been someone else. Anyway, I bought a "Les Paul" off them about 2 years ago. Came as advertised, nothing damaged, got it within a week of ordering. No complaints here.

    Typical bedroom hobbyist mix

    Yeah, I didn't mention how squashed it is because that has nothing to do with your mix. The brick wall limiting shouldn't even be part of this conversation because that's not you're doing, and it's not what you were asking about. I find it ironic that the guy that called your mix a "typical...

    LOL! I can see why you posted that. The intro reminded me of this tune, too. Just the intro.

    Typical bedroom hobbyist mix

    I expected it sound a lot worse than that!!! This happens all the time. I read comments and expect something to be way worse (or way better) than it is based on the OP's comments, and/or other people's comments. Don't forget, people are just people. Just because this "mastering engineer" said...

    Typical bedroom hobbyist mix

    Almost impossible to answer without handing out cliches: Experience, good ears, good arrangements, good room, good monitoring chain, good decisions, good performances, etc... Is your room treated? Like, not with "foam" but with actual proper materials? Are you objective enough to mix your own...

    Question: Is a 30-watt amp head going into a 2x12 cab good enough for medium-sized gigs?

    That's what I'm thinking. I'm not a guitar player in real life, but I have a 50 watt amp and if that thing goes passed 2, the neighbors are calling the cops. I figure a 30 watt amp would be that loud at 4 or 5 at most. But what do I know. I primarily just hit shit.

    Recreating Hysteria by Def Leppard

    I love it. You did a great job, brother. Sounds fantastic. :cool: I think the vocals can come up a bit, but I might listen again tomorrow and find them just fine where they are, so that's a very small nit-pick. You captured the ambience, the sound, and the feel beautifully. I'll watch the...
