Intro: satch

[satch]

most the the tracks have rhythm, bt for those that dont, i do the rhythm first, then lead. i use a recording software called audacity and basically run my gfx5 into the line in port on my lap.

 

[Mr_X]

in line port? is that the one where u plug in ur mike? sorry ar, i m really bloody newb in this kinda stuff, only know how to plug the cable to my amp.

 

[satch]

for me ,its the one next to the mic port

 

[Mr_X]

where u get cables where one head is the normal guitar cable head, the other is those discman head? how u get it plugged in?

 

[satch]

u have to buy a converter. from sim lim tower. cheap cheap.

 

[siva]

satch ..ask u ah .. can i play my guitar thru a efx then direct to com ?? will the sound come out from my com speakers ?? can i do without an amp ? plz enlighten me on this area .. thx !

 

[satch]

yea, u can, bt wont sound good if u gt a lousy soundcard.




.......like me...... haha, i need a new soundcard........

 

[dhalif]

no man.. u need to sit down and reallly work on your patch..

 

[satch]

that is true, patch settings do matter, bt my sound card is lke some ALIsound. dunno what the heck is it. haha, from my laptop one.

cos i lose some lows when i do line in.

[satch]

dude satch.. im using an onboard card too..

[Mr_X]

i dun have, its people's one. Just that my friend show me only.

 

[seekz]

no man.. u need to sit down and reallly work on your patch..

yeah... cos the signal converters on your sound cards arent that great. I would recomend sittin down. record a tone,play back and listen to it. Tweak it and then record and play back.

Cos the computer speaker aint exactly like a real amp. unless your effect is like a Sansamp or a pod or some kinda DI/cab sim kind.

Or you can do it the way andrew does it. Micing it with a cheapskate PC mic tru the amp. Though the sound aint gona be 100%, its more controllable. easier to tweak and sound more authentic.

 

[satch]

so basically u mean that the sound on my amp wont really be what comes out of the comp?

yea, i kinda feel that way too, guess ill have to make a patch jst for recording.

thanks seeks.
