    Need gear recommendations (FX, guitar, bass)

    EZ Drummer is great. I've used it for about 5 years now (currently using ez drummer 2) and I have no complaints.

    Bass Player New to Metal

    Kill 'em all and other early Metallica albums are a great way to learn metal. What style of metal do you ultimately want to play? That's where you should focus your learning. I would say continue learning all the 80s metallica albums, then learn something like Slayer's reign in blood (still...

    "Tricky" small room acoustic treatment,help!

    Mattress pads and blankets are better than nothing, but they're far from good. Do a google search for bass traps, that's what you would need first, and then put some acoustic treatment (foam, etc) on the walls to reduce the echo in the room. I can't see the pictures, probably because of the...

    What are you up to as a musician?

    Managed to re-record a reasonable amount of music. Some of it I just had to move on. Recently finished a little 2 song death/doom EP. And most importantly I found a drummer and now I'm in a real band, yaaaayyyyy. So now I'm really focusing on that and writing music so we can play some local...

    What are you up to as a musician?

    200GB worth of Reaper files and the associated .wav files for multiple takes of guitar, bass, vocals, drums, etc. I have something like 10-12 projects I write for, and it all adds up. I'm slowly recovering songs from my head. I've got a few songs re-recorded for my next Only a Shadow...

    What are you up to as a musician?

    Thanks! I'm really happy with how it turned out. Being a solo musician helps me write a lot; I don't have to confer with other band members or anything, I just write. Also I don't really have any other hobbies other than music. My computer crashed and died. I tried using the built in Dell...

    Guitar String Gauge for Drop B

    Wow, you guys like looser strings! I use a 62 for my low string, tuned to Bb standard with a 25.5" scale length, haha. I was going to recommend at least a 56! Even if you like looser strings I'd recommend going a bit heavier for the really low tunings, as it helps maintain a constant note...

    What are you up to as a musician?

    Well I finished my goregrind EP and it turned out pretty good. I only have 3 mics for my drumset, so getting a good drum sound can be tricky, but I got about the best sound I can get. Here it is in case anyone wants to check it out...

    What are you up to as a musician?

    Yeah once I'm generally happy with a song and I know it's good, just maybe needs a little polishing, I force myself to leave it alone for a day, come back the next day, do a few minor tweaks and then I'm done. Sometimes after releasing an album I'll say oh I wish the kick drum sounded better or...
