Cool!!!!!! I'm looking forward to it!!!!!!!!! Rock on Brian!!

Its going to take a little more time as the unti was a major pain in the ass to install and configure and when I finally did, the guitar tones were out and out terrible... I'm sending it back tomorrow for a refund... god, I love Amazon.

Sara, Liz, people, help me out here... I know I asked before, but here I am asking again: I need a good guitar effects processor that plugs into my computer so that I can record my playing to mp3. I know Sara uses a Line 6, I just want more options.

Welcome to the world of home recording Brian. :zombie: :zombie: :zombie: :zombie:

Learning whatever software is a PITA! I either plug direct or use a DI output from either my amp, or my BBE DI-100X.

How were you recording?

Jim

I've used a Tascam US-122.

Currently using a Alesis I/O2.very comparable and takes less space.

I never got as far as recording... after screwing with virutal effects pedals and about tearing out what little hair I have in my head, I gave up the ghost with the M-Audio.

what other options are you looking for? like more fx? m audio makes a black box which i've heard great things about. it has drum beats too and the fx are synched - very cool. but hey but mabey you want to stay away from usb and go thru your sound card line in. alot of people are using the roland gt 8 to plug straight into their soundcards and get great tone. justin from dimn used one live and rocked it stereo \m/

 

[Rendclaw]

Hmm... I'm going to have to invest in a sound card then... not that I mind, anything that makes my music sound better is a good thing... I don;t want to go too complex, just something I can turn on, plug in, and play and record.... I have still to find the mp3s of me.

The POD Line 6 (red bean) sounds GREAT for the money. Just plug into a sound card (M-Audio Delta cards are good) and configure your computer recording software and you are set. The trick to computer recording is to have a ton of memory and a fast processor. Windows XP is rock solid and that combined with a couple of gigs of memory will equal a system that does not crash when processing audio files. Get the best system that you can afford. A cheap system will just cause alot of frustration.

 

[Rendclaw]

Its a good thing that I upgraded the memory to 2 gigs a couple of weeks ago!

And yes, I agree about going with cheap systems.... I'm going to look into a sound card sometime today. Until then, its back to WinADR!
