    Using Amp Sims Live?

    RE: stage vibration damaging laptops... put it in a box with an open top and some padding on the bottom. As for switching patches... map the 'fx bypass' controls for a few tracks in Reaper to be affected by the MIDI being sent by your switching device.

    Setting up a drum room, could use some tips.

    S'goin'on, long time no see. I've got a 15'x12' room I'm about to set up as a drum room. It's gonna be soundproofed for 24 hour practice. The drumming style's pretty subtle and dynamic, it doesn't need to be a HUGE sound but the feel is a priority (probably going to mic it Glyn Johns style)...

    Free or cheap synth/string/orchestra VST's?

    I love Miroslav Philharmonic, it runs on the Sampletank engine and has a shitload of orchestral instruments... can't remember what I paid for it but it was definitely worth it many times over

    The Boss ODB-3 or whatever (the bass overdrive pedal) sounds awesome on guitar and doesn't have that annoying nasal quality the SD-1 has

    giant bells

    Check out the G-Town Sampling Project, they are free samples... some pretty nice bells in there. And if they aren't huge enough you can blend 'em with some of the anvil strikes in the same sample pack. Everything else I am aware of is for Kontakt.

    More Obamacare stuff - implants?

    I thought this thread was going to be about Obamacare providing free breast implants, and was coming in here to say I support my tax dollars being used to beautify the tits of America.

    Weird issues with my right ear

    It doesn't seem to be medically significant from what I've experienced talking to others who have it. Also it seems to go away when listening to music so I wouldn't worry about it affecting your mixes either

    i used a 4:1 ratio on the faggotry/awesome control and then twisted the remaining knobs so they looked like a chicken-headed my pals nugget
