Re: Machine

Thanks, guys! There will be more to come, but I'm waiting for my new computer to arrive, well, actually it's a used one, an iMac mid 2011, half the price of a new one :) Changing platform from PC to Mac and looking forward to just play without worrying about anything else... When I get my hands on t...

Re: Anyone uses VST Amp Rack in Cubase?

Problem solved...Boss GT-100 is to be upgraded to version 2.0, where you can simultaneously record a nonprocessed signal and reamp that signal. Some other cool features will also come with that upgrade :D

Saturday morning blues

Woke up early today and got inspired by the last days visiting the site again.. Blues always feels like home... Recorded a blues in F and named it "Saturday Morning Blues"...working on lyrics so maybe the name will change to "Baby, come home". Eventually I'll record vocals and po...

Anyone uses VST Amp Rack in Cubase?

Although I have both Boss GT-100 and Line6 POD HD I sometimes need to change the guitar tone when mixing. Amplitube is obvious a good choice, but as I have Cubase 6 I also have VST Amp Rack. I have tried it out and read a few reviews on the net, but not really spent time to dig deeper in it. Anyone ...

Re: Line6 Blues

Have you tried to only install the drivers for the soundcard and skip the POD Farm installation? You could download and install IK MUltimedia Amplitube Free and get some descent sounds out of the free amps, cabinetts and effects... ...or maybe you have memory problem (or to small RAM) so when you pl...

bellogi: Yes, writing songs is what I do on my sparetime. Not that many blues tunes, but when I do, and think it's something I like to share, I post them here...I have written 100+ songs since I took up music eleven years ago after a 20+ year timeout. Most of them belong in the trash can, but I feel...

Re: Line6 Blues

I have had some issues with soundcards too, not only Line6, but I found out that I had to go to the Control Panel>Hardware and sound and inactivate the internal soundcard of the computer to get rid of those crackling sounds.

Hope it helps!

Re: Steel Mill Child

Thanks for listening and for your opinions, VikingBlues! I'll probably run the bass through Line 6 Bass POD instead and try to find Another sound...and maybe develop the lines a little. As for the solo. maybe less is more, the more I listen to it the more it fits the song, but when I get the vocals ...
