    Impulses on OSX/PT8 - Do I Have This Right?

    OK, I've been demoing Mellowmuse IR1A and Recabinet this weekend and frankly, I'm blown away. The Pod Farm tones are improved tremendously. Yeah, I know I'm late to the party with impulses, but damn. Shouldn't have waited so long... I've purchased the full version of Recabinet and will be...

    Programmed Drums

    Is Slate just samples or does it have a full programming interface like SD2.0? If it has an interface, how does it compare to SD2.0? I see SD2.0 is down to $149 if you do a google shopping search. That's cheaper than the EZD crossgrade.

    Impulses on OSX/PT8 - Do I Have This Right?

    Thanks for saving me some cash, guys. The valuable insight is much appreciated! I'll be demoing IR1A and Recabinet this weekend... although I should skrew the Recabinet demo and just buy it at $14.99. Can't beat that price.

    Impulses on OSX/PT8 - Do I Have This Right?

    Thanks. Just discovered IR1A, don't know how that one got past me... So now my dilemma is the Reverberate/FXpansion wrapper combo for $100 (plus the added benefit of having the world of VST's open up to me), or $50 for IR1A. Arg! Anyway, at least I can demo IR1A. Can't demo the FXpansion wrapper.

    Impulses on OSX/PT8 - Do I Have This Right?

    OK, I've been wearing out the search function and have come up with the following. Please tell me if I have this right... If I am running OS X (Snow Leopard) and PT8, and I want to use impulses, my initial choices are limited. Here is the chain I'm going for, basically. I have yet to buy...

    Most Underrated Metal Guitarists?

    I just found out about Andy James. Yikes. I've been a fan of Kris Norris (ex-Darkest Hour) for awhile now. Great riffer, too. And does anyone remember Chet Thompson (Hellion, WWIII)?

    R. I. fucking METAL EARL ROOT!!!

    I remember just getting into metal and thrash back in the 80's as a young teenager. It was very late one weekend night and I was scanning the radio stations with my trusty old boombox. I was living with my parents in Chippewa Falls, WI at the time. I came across this faint signal out of the Twin...

    check my new song! (Pod xt - ADdrums - metalcore?)

    Yeah, maybe one can do both. Or maybe doing both would cause the other one to suffer and vice versa. What you focus on expands. I'm an IT engineer. To my regret, I did NOT focus on my true passion, music. I have to encourage anyone that has the chance to just f'n go for it.

    check my new song! (Pod xt - ADdrums - metalcore?)

    Another great song!!! I can easily see this stuff on a major release. Skip the computer engineering and pursue music and recording... I see good stuff in your future. Not many people have such a signature sound especially at your age. You already have an identifiable style on guitar. That's huge.

    New song (5150,DFHS,Blackjack C7)

    I think the song sounds excellent. I like the guitar tones and the clean sounds great as well. Is the clean also the 5150? Wicked solo! I like the bass drum. I probably would put a little more "crack" in the snare but what do I know. .j.

    Kansas City Power Metal Fest - date and first 3 bands announced

    We probably won't be playing any shows for awhile (although we'd love to) because we do not have a permanent drummer. Currently we are woodshedding for the guitar and bass tracks for the new CD (working with Neil Kernon at Rax Trax in Chicago). Got the drum tracks done (with our old drummer...
