nice setup btw. did u get a new sound card? i've been looking into gettin a new one and am not really sure what to get.

[Phalanx]

that's a very cool setup man, how much did the whole thing cost in the end?

[bottlerocket]

Looks pretty cool...I need a recording studio.

I don't even want to know the crap that's been on that monitor. :lol:

[naut]

approximately $2,415.

[bottlerocket]

Please, don't stand a conversation about bukkake.

[naut]

i waited until the screensaver turned on before i took the picture.

no evidence.:cool:

[trumpeter]

So...what model are those monitors, it looks very nice a clean by the way...I'm happy for you.

[naut]

thanks pipe. they're powered KRK ROKIT 5's.

[trumpeter]

Nice, I'm really jealous...


What is the little thingy with the mic inputs (well...what model)

[naut]

it's a PreSonus Firebox midi interface.

[trumpeter]

Hows it work...I've heard good things

[naut]

basically, i just run a cable, (from my BP200), into the first mic input on the front of the interface. from there, it connects to my computer with a firewire cable. (when it comes to interfaces, it's best to go firewire. the signal will travel MUCH faster as opposed to USB).

anyways, as for the actual box itself, i can control the gain and the master volume. i also connect my monitors to the back of the box, with two TRS cables. it came with a couple software programs too, but i haven't really used them.

prior to having the interface, i was just doing the standard 1/4" to 1/8" method. but after buying this, the quality of my recording improved DRASTICALLY. which is why i bought it in the first place.:p

[trumpeter]

I meant like...quality wise..


I knew that



So hows the whole knife situation?
/offtopic.

[Teh Glees0rz]

Blimey, that's a nice setup. You could do some serious recordage with that. :thumb:

[muthafunkabass]

3 questions,


What sixer do you have back there?

How is the Behringer head? Are they as unreliable as they're said to be?

[naut]

I meant like...quality wise..


I knew that

ooohhh, damn, i just wasted all that time.:(

So hows the whole knife situation? /offtopic.

it's alright, i switched attorneys, (don't know if i mentioned that), and it seems to be going smoothly. as i've said before, i just hope i end up with felony-type probation, and no jail/prison time...

[trumpeter]

Its okay mr. dylan

*huggles*


Tell me about the bp200

Quality wise...tones and such.

Is it worth the 50+ over the bp80?

[naut]

What sixer do you have back there?

Ibanez SR-506.

How is the Behringer head?

great. nice tone, good power, and no technical problems, so far.

Are they as unreliable as they're said to be?

no, although, i believe their combos to be "tainted." well, in the sense that they're really hit or miss. i mean, my BX1200 got fried two days after i bought it; but some people have had their's for quite a while, with no problems. so yeah, they get a bad rep from their combos, but i have found, (and heard), nothing but good things about their heads.

Cool. They're heads are so cheap, it's hard to resist.

[naut]

:-*

Tell me about the bp200

i love it, personally. so did a lot of other people around here until it came trendy to bag on 'em, but whatever. i think it carries awesome potential; and with all the settings...how could it not?

for being a multi-effects processor, i think it can produce some desirable tones. of course, you can find better with A LOT of other pedals, but hey, it suits me just fine.

Is it worth the 50+ over the bp80?

hmm, i'm not sure...maybe if it were like 30+ over the BP200. something around there.

[naut]

Cool. They're heads are so cheap, it's hard to resist.

indeed.

[muthafunkabass]

hmm, i'm not sure...maybe if it were like 30+ over the BP200. something around there.

It is. The interface on it so annoying! I plan to upgrade to a 200.

[Akira]

I like the BP200. It has some nice tones. But I would not pay full price. I got mine for $50 plus the power adapter, and I wouldn't have payed much more.

[backsidetailslide]

pretty sick. i must say :thumb:

[mookie91]

Nice set up what program are you using to record with on the mac?

[naut]

GarageBand for recording, and Sound Studio for sample editing. although, i could just use GarageBand for that as well, but i'm just used to it this way. i've also got Cubase LE, but i'm really enjoying GB right now, so i doubt i'll use it anytime soon.
