    Anyone know where Schecter get their parts from?

    I have been looking all over the internet for a pickup ring that fits my Schecter Hellraiser special, have been to allparts.com etc and even tried messaging the company directly but with no luck. This is not a 'I can't be bothered to use a search engine issue', I really can't find this part...

    Cubase Dongle activation question, please help!

    Cheers for the reply! What is a support ticket exactly? So you think the 'time remaining' part is not actually for cubase 5 itself? I can't think of what software it could be referring to though, as I got a trial version of symphonic orchestra with it, but haven't actually installed that...

    Quick Cubase Question...

    Actually it may not be, but let me explain... Recently had a nasty computer virus and as a result had to reformat my hard drive. As a result I've obviously had to re-install all my software. Now when using Cubase (SX - yes I know it's old but don't have the funds atm to update) when I...

    Computer won’t pick up Focusrite Saffire firewire interface?

    This is the model I’m using: http://www.soundonsound.com/sos/sep05/images/saffire1header.l.jpg When installing drivers, the computer refuses to pick up that the device is plugged in (of course it is, the firewire port is even powering some of the LED lights)? I have proper texas...

    NOOB simple rack gear compression question?

    Thanks for all the great advice! Interesting enough I was chatting with Timo Tolkki (ex-Stratovarius) on facebook the other day and he recommended the Cranesong Trakker: "Trakker is a compressor that simulates different compressors. Its sort of many compressors in one. I compress the vocals a...

    NOOB simple rack gear compression question?

    Ahh, cool, first hand information then! Can the 'Stereo' Tripple-C be used for Mono too (maybe by just using the left in/out)? And, any other compressors that you'd recommend? Thanks!
