    Fuck, my Pod just broke :(

    I bought a used Toneport and registered it at the Line 6 website. After I installed the Line 6 Monkey app, I noticed I had the Metal Expansion Pack and the FX Expansion Pack activated (I didn't purchase either of those). Maybe the previous owner had purchased a copy - I'm not sure, and I don't...

    They all sound good to me, but today I like C, A then B.

    Line6 UX1 Issue (Clipping city)

    Not sure if this will help but I have a UX2, and I'm using POD GearBox V3.7 (essentially the same thing as POD Farm). In GearBox there are 4 sends: 1/2 and 3/4. 1/2 are processed guitar and 3/4 are unprocessed (I think it's actually semi-processed, but anyway, it bypasses the amp sim and FX)...

    AcmeBarGig Preampus BRAIN Released Today as Freeware

    Thanks for your hard work, AcmeBarGig. It sounds sweet. However, I'm getting the same problem as paladin shredder. I've compensated for the low level o/p by cranking the o/p from Boogex (to +14dB). Here's BRAIN in a song (not metal, but anyway...) It's the centre-panned gat. The EQ and...

    What bands do you hate to admit you like?

    I'm too old to worry about embarrassment, but there's a Christian pop (that's two strikes against right there) metal (strike 3) band called Acceptance which I really dig. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M-yNjXTMzG0

    One amp per side, or same amp?

    I thought that if you have the same signal panned hard L and R, then the end result is the same as one signal panned centre. Am I missing something or is everyone applying different settings (EQ/gain etc.) to each side?

    Acoustic/Folk music for an Opeth fan.

    Nick Drake. I've listened to his albums Bryter Layter and Pink Moon. They're both excellent, but my fav of the two is Pink Moon.

    Free Escalation demo CD.

    I listened to it today. The last track "Last Sunrise" has some crazy rhythm changes going on there, it really grabs your attention. Overall, I think your band's sound contains elements of the NWOBHM sound like Maiden and Saxon and maybe even a little bit of Last In Line era Dio, with modern...

    Any love for Killing Joke?

    I haven't heard that term used since I was a kid :)

    Any love for Killing Joke?

    Yeah, for me, that album is like a return to their earlier sound: tons of reverb on everything.

    Any love for Killing Joke?

    That album's got some good tracks on it. Check out their previous album as well (Killing Joke), Dave Grohl plays drums on it. A fav of mine from that album is Asteroid. EDIT: There are actually 2 albums called "Killing Joke": Their debut (released in like 1980 or something) and the "Dave...
