Re: remote foot trigger for recording

Re: Tips for direct recording electric guitar

I dont fully grasp the advantage of 3 soundcards I explained the 3 cards in several post here already. when you use ASIO drivers for a sound card, that card cannot be used for another application Guitar rig and Mixcraft both have to have their own sound card because I am using ASIO drivers the moth...

Re: Tips for direct recording electric guitar

Re: Tips for direct recording electric guitar

LOl, the 100 watt amp is not cranked

I use 100 watt stereo PA amp so the sound is clean and not colored
It's just a power amp, all the tones come from whatever sources is being played

The speakers are home 6 way 150 watt, 18 inch woofer pioneers
I have those set to dead flat also

Re: Tips for direct recording electric guitar

Yes, mic'd tube amps sound awesome, but I record direct because there's no way I can mic up my tube amps and record them. I don't have a quiet studio. Dogs, computers, air conditioners, phones, etc Things rattle everywhere in my shop when I crank up a tube amp and cabinet I can't play at the volumes...

Re: Tips for direct recording electric guitar

A shorter version of the question is, "how to capture more soul when recording direct?" I don't know, do any of the tunes on my sound page sound ok to you? Let me know and I can tell you how I recorded that tune. record a short guitar clip with one of your best pre-sets in guitar rig and ...
