http://ameba.lpt.fi/~vilkmati/Sontaa/erotic_nightmares.mp3 There you go. Take a listen to it. Quite a fast take and I lost all of my imagination while recording. The middle part's quite dull and didn't do much of my own stuff in there. The leads sound quite strange once in a while because it's...

Check out the new Metallica song... It's a live recording... Sorta gets me excited about the new album coming out in Sept... What ye guys think? Going to see them in Dublin on Thursday... Ten D are supporting.. should be a great gig! :D Dave

Who else attended the Wacken Open Air festival in Germany this year? I've been studying in Germany for a year now so it was pretty easy for me to attend the festival, I probably couldn't say the same for all of you who live across the pond. Still, there were quite a few Americans and Canadians...

Okay a few years back, me a drummer and a bass player needed a vocalist, for our new metal band "craving" (sounds a bit Gaay now, anyway) we turned up and the rehearsal rooms and the guy had gotten a lift with the bass player. we had a quick chat and then set up. the guy said he played guitar...

This is my first real recording. It has no bass, and bad drums. The drums are probably the worst part. The mix is pretty thin as a whole, I think. It was my attempt at something prog metal. I'd appreciate your feedback. http://www.soundclick.com/bands/page_songInfo.cfm?bandID=782201&songID=6454486

It's a rough mix, working on it at the moment. Let me know what you all think. Enjoy! http://www.shawncastonguay.com/Dragon_s_Legacy.mp3

With pleasing results? I am really GASing for a drum set, or DASing rather, but they are just too dang expensive. I was instead of a whole drumset, with mics and everything, just to get an electric kit, and use real cymbals and snare. That way, i would just have to mic the snare, hi hats, and...

Hey guys, I have just realized I haven't really written any of my own music, I mean I can make my own solo's and bass lines. But I have trouble thinking of my own rhythm guitar lines to start, then my bass and drums will stem and then lead. I can play rhythm and I know chord structure pretty...

I might have finished mixing it... not sure. Opinions are needed. I have to move on from this song, so this might be the final mix, but it was done on headphones because it's some silly time in the morning here. *EDITED LINK*

Just wanted to show my first guitar that i bought a couple of months ago! From GC. A Squier fender black telecaster for $200. Made in indonesia. post serial number later was it a good price and worth it? Oh and it was new with the plastic cover. I had a low budget... and what wood is it? (if...

Any chance any of you guys could have a quick listen to a quick guitar mix I'm working on? Im trying to get a good recording tone out of my new Marshall, and after following the advice I've read around the place I've come up with this so far... I don't plan on making anything out of it, it was...

so, currently, in my band, i am using a marshall mg100dfx, the 100 watt combo as the head on a randall cab...im using a metal zone and my 20thrg...a few people have complained that its too grainy, specifically when i hold an octave chord past the 12th marker..and other such things..anyways, i...

I have always like this old Van Halen instrumental. I couldnt find a backing track for it so I just made it from scratch through RiffWorks. Its not note for note, but enjoy! http://www.acidplanet.com/artist.asp?PID=1013374&t=8047

Can anyone please recommend a drum machine or something similar. Here are my requirements: Budget to mid-range price Need it for some funky, heavy-type grooves A drum machine seems fine but my knowledge is limited on how advanced they now are. Do they sample aswell (at a budget price)? I...

Hey guys...just wondering when everyone started playing guitar or music in general and for how long?? Also, who/what inspired you to pick up an instrument? I started playing when I was 12 and have been playing for close to 9 years now. I picked up the guitar because I discovered Metallica. I...

Up for sale is an older pearl export double bass kit. this was a backup practice kit and is a nice sounding kit. the 4 toms have been completely redone with new wrap, ISS mounts, new heads and complete cleaning. the bass drums have the original wrap but have new heads and have also been...

whenever i´ve recorded drums, it´s always been individual mikes on things, and stereo overheads... then it goes through an analogue mixer, and then into software on the computer... maybe i´ve used the EQ on the mixer sometimes... now, what i WANT to do is to record the drums with the mikes, but...
