Alright so I've slightly done some reading and gained the understanding that my UX2 does NOT have a hi-z input and I was slightly directed to the Motu Zbox. But I'm wanting to spend a decent amount of money and slowly start piecing together a real interface hardware setup I can use effectively...

It's a UX2 and I have it plugged directly into my onboard sound.

So should I be using a DI between my guitar and Podfarm(using as my interface)? ahaha

Alright. I double track and full pan, but I keep hearing very back and forth opinions on whether to reverb bus the guitars ever so slightly. On another note, I record with a Podfarm as my interface. Would it be suggested or beneficial for me to put a DI box inbetween my guitars and the Pod?

Interesting, I can dig it. What do you generally do for reverbing?

I'm assuming that means you compress inside of Pod then?

Curious to see what kind of stuff other people like to do in their chains after Podfarm (or pre-Pod). Eq, compression, reverb, eq again? Hoping to get some insight to better my guitar mix, maybe even some suggestions on where to evolve past my current UX2 as an interface setup.

Annnndd nevermind. I just learned what Transient shaping was for and now I'm perfect. /facepalm

Alright so at risk of sounding like an absolute noob (I'd say I'm an intermediate noob) I'm wondering if anyone can help me with some trouble I'm having with a snare sample I just bought. So I'm comparing it to a second sample I have (the second IS pre-processed). Sample 1 is ridiculously...

LOL @ the metallica snare. I was looking for a huge sounding snare. Not a snare sounding like a huge piece of shit. Thanks tho, i think i got mine about where i wanted it. =]

Okay guys, im looking to recreate this snare sound almost exactly. Catch it i use a MIDI kit. Question is, how would i have to mix the snare to get this kind of sound out of it? Theres a few hits on it at 1:30 during the chorus and the riff after. Thanks in advance. =]
