    Buying a Desk (And Computer)

    How much are you looking to spend on a system? Do you have one curently that you could upgrade? A sandy bridge cpu, mobo, and 4 gb of ram shouldnt set you back much and won't need a huge psu. The 'h' chipsets support onboard graphics too so you could simply add hdd/gfx/new psu/more ram later.

    hard drive space recommendation?

    Buy a 1TB or larger and use it for audio recording, samples, etc. If your system has room and supports it, get another one and put them in a RAID 1 array.

    Did I safely rewire my cab/change the speakers?

    This. Much cheaper than repairing your head

    DAW controllers and surfaces

    In Sonar anyway you can group multiple controls and then adjust how they scale, or even invert them so that raising one fader will lower the other. I've used this many times so that I could mix two sources with my eyes closed so i could focus on just listening. Totally agree that physical...

    Top 12 Metal Amplifiers!?

    The Soldano and Uberschall keep coming up as top metal amps but for the life of me I can't think of (m)any albums that I identify as using them. I've heard KSE for the former. I'm not saying that being used by artist X makes them good or bad... Since the 'what gear on what album' is...

    Building a new PC for 'studio' workflow, recommendations?

    What s/w do you use? are you using an existing interface or are you adding another one as well? I have no issues recommending 64-bit if the 2 above items are happy with it. (ie SONAR + Echo Audio under x64 is great)

    so i'm going to Tokyo...

    I'm going to Japan next week for work and was looking for some suggestions on cool things to check out in Tokyo. I was there a few years ago so I've hit the obvious places and will certainly revisit some of them but I know there must be some places off the radar, crazy music/guitar stores or...

    Whats the ultimate 12" guitar replacement speaker?

    ah thanks for the reply! I educated myself a bit about this since the post in the course of researching whether i could play a guitar cab w/bass amp and vice versa. (when i was young and pleasantly naive i played an RP-1 into a Kustom Bass head into a couple random speaker cabs, one had a 15"...
