  1. Hey Jesse, think I know what you mean. currently have a cheapo TC Electonics D.I. box (Teleport, normally used for pushing mic signal through long cable). Still need to add 10db in Amplitube. After holidays will try this 19Euro Magnum D.I. (hope they don't send me a Magnum P.I. ) It's a copy of the Mooer D.I. (59,-)....maybe it's the same thing just with a different name.... will let you know how it works. (did try several 'more expensive' passive D.I.'s incl the Radial with Jensen transformer, Palmer, but liked the cheap purple Samson passive one the best Built like a tank and most clean/open sound. The Jensen just made it 'darker' and the Palmer made it a litlle 'smaller' (could be handy if you record left + right guitars)
  2. Worcestershire saws not bad aigh ? sorry I see now I'm in rong fred

    hope that helmet's bulletproof....it looks killer
  6. you'll be fine and play/enjoy music with 10 fingers or 9 AND every time you order 2 beers, you'll just have to raise 1 finger !!! what about that ??!! guy with 1 hand in my area
  7. saw Bun's early St Anger building up indeed
  8. did rent a simular hardware version few times, WAY better than the software but pricey. too bad ye can't put the analog ones in 'stand by' mode.
  9. normally you'll be ok if all inputs/outputs look ok in Cakewalk and your computer (ASIO Panel) -> see pics below please. (Preferences/Audio/Devices) AND (Preferences/Audio/Driver Settings/ASIO PANEL)
  10. Hey Gary, You can connect the L + R outputs (main or summing depending on which Dangerous box you have) to Apollo's Line Inputs ( 1 or 2 fe). In Cakewalk (I guess) add a new track (or bus ?) and select the 2 Apollo Inputs as inputs, and Output them to your Apollo 'master'/'end' bus (or any bus you like). (guess you have a working routing to the Dangerous Box already, you might need to enable the Dangerous outputs/Apollo inputs in Cakewalk if ye haven't already....under Preferences/Devices/Input). good luck
  11. Tried Reloop 8 inch speakers, Adam 7 inch monitors + subwoofer, Auratone 5C cubes, Equator 5 inch coaxial monitors. Several AKG cans, several Sennheisers, several Shure's, several Audio Technica's and some Sony. And I did the 10.000 hours of practice. I can tweek the bass for hours while the eq is in 'bypass' and hear the next day there isn't any bass at all Also my internal BPM clock and roundtrip latency in my ears/brain is drifting like crazy, I'll tweak the attack/release for an hour and think it's ok. Then next day I'll hear it's WAY too fast or slow haha......so I gave up But Manny Marroquin uses
  12. I tried a lot of amp sims, incl THU and Bias FX, Podfarm, Guitarrig 4 Imo THU has nicer cabinet and reverb sounds than Amplitube, BIAS FX sounded really brittle but it all depends on your setup/input I guess, Bias FX has great reviews so probably my setup is not ideal for it. Amplitube has the most realistic 70's ACDC like tone/sound for my rig I found, but maybe for metal THU would be better... There's probably many other great sounding amp sims out there
  13. funny/lol, I had the hardware Drawmer Multiband (Fet) compressor, and also their DL251 compressor. both Drawmers had the nicest 'box' sound of any hardware I ever had, including pro and mastering grade fe. Elysia, BAX and a Sontec Mastering EQ by Custom Audio Germany, SKnote, TK audio etc.(of which really I could only recommend the Drawmers, My BAX pushed the stereo image a a bit to the front, made it sound more 'mono'.....which can be useful but not ideal for a mastering EQ). The Elysia compressor and EQ sounded good and clean, but imo no improvement over a VST. Great they could include that Drwamer 73 Fet warmth in the software versions. For recording defenitely Drawmer 1973 would be my first choice to run any tracks through, even without setting a lot of compression but just for the box tone. The DL251 (VCA compressor) worked really well on a bus with the link knob off, in RMS mode. eh...my one VST would be Amplitube just so I can play ACDC 'TNT' with a realistic 70s Malcolm/Angus sound
  14. She indeed looks at you Kenny and really likes you a lot !!! And I kept it need & tidy, right ? (first title came to me was Today's Whores Cope -> don't ask for the pics please)
