  1. With TH-U it shows in the Banks section which 'collection' you have. Select that and it shows what presets/captures it has. From what I have been able to gather and understand, it's like having the amp sims and the ability to play captures all in one. Similar to Amplitube. Yeah if you go all out I am sure it can be a bit much. As long as I have had it, I think I have only purchased less than 5 of these add on packs. And I have been very satisfied with all that I have from them. They have amps that Amplitube doesn't have.
  2. Well, you are a producer. How good of a producer remains to be seen!! LOL!!
  3. No we didn't!! I don't think I bought a whole set of strings until I got my first Les Paul. I brought it in to the music store (Rock World Music on Veterans Blvd) and had them change the strings. Yep, I had no clue.
  4. Has anyone ever said "That's too much becan!!"?
  5. Is that really such a thing?
  6. LOL!!! Great analogy!! Those things would rust up and tear the end of my fingers up!! I had forgot about that! Yep. I had a guitar from Western Auto as my first guitar. I don't remember if it had any name on it. But I do remember that very high action!! That didn't bother me as much as trying to play chords up the neck. Further up the neck I would go, the more out of tune it would get. Just no intonation on it at all!!
  7. Yep... I remember that!! Unbelievable the people we had on that newsgroup.
  8. Ahhh..... Black Diamond strings. Bought many of them individually. I don't remember ever buying a whole set. I used to get them at the drug store. Didn't know it at the time but the pharmacist was a guitar player. Ended up learning a lot of stuff from his son and nephew. Looking back on it now... it really is amazing how clueless I was!!
  9. @Base 57 Melvin, or as I call him Mel!! Great guy. Really fun to talk to! Yep, you know who I'm talk 'bout
  10. He trying to get the word out!! Gotta give him props for that!!
  11. As many plugins as some of us have, I would think the DAW would crash if we ever attempted to load EVERY plugin we have!! It would trigger some kind of spacial distortion that could rip the fabric of sound as we know it!!
  12. Oh! Well, that changes the whole equation!! Mmmm let me think... Nope
  13. We still have a locally-owned and run music store in the NOLA area. It is really in Kenner, a suburb of NOLA. C and M Music Store. He has stayed in business by adapting to the new market. He has as many guitars hanging from the walls and ceiling as GC. Even has a custom line somebody is making out of car parts!! Has a full service repair shop that includes a Plek machine. And he will match or beat any price you find on line. And if the owner (forget his name) is in there you can strike up a conversation with him and he will gladly show you pics of his guitar collection. They have 4 locations over the southern Louisiana and Mississippi area. Last time I was in there I was wondering about how those acoustic amps sound. He has about four or five different types from Fishman to Fender and Ibanez. When I asked about them he started giving me all the ins and outs about them but recommend the Fishman hands down. He said the quality was just so much better. Then found myself a few days later in a restaurant with a guy playing acoustic slide blues. It sounded great and the amp he was using? Yep, Fishman!! When I go to buy one, I will get it from C & M. There's still some local shops around. But to stay viable and profitable, they will have to adapt.
  14. And you believe it?
