That's all I know...
Regards,
DimitriosHey James,

I've always been a firm believer that it's good for the mind (and
wallet) to get the very most out of whatever's available.
I don't like that Crate unit, but I've recorded them and if you're
careful you can get a usable sound out of it. The Sans Amp is okay for
some things but generally nasty imho. The Pod, if tweaked well, is a
decent unit for modern sounding stuff, especiall the clean tones, but
like so many "boxes" it lacks the midranges that give a guitar warmth
and "tone".
Amplitube is cool, sort of, but I'm not a big fan of plug-ins. A/B one
against a real amp and you'll get the picture.

My advice? Try to find a nice amp that has lots of ballsy mid's an

<pre wrap="">You can build them yourself. Just go to your local electronic supply (not
radio shack), get some 10 pin and 16 pin connectors, some ribbon cable, and
crimp away. Probably cost you fifty cents.

rap="">hey,

do any of you have 2 spare jumpers for the eds1000 card that you could
sell me? these are the little ones that connect the cards together.
Mine, for some reason, are flakey.

--------------010604020606060303050505--I can personally vouch for insulationworld.com. Nice folks and great pricing!
I actually drove to Hopewell, VA to pickup my order. They are primarily a
supplier of industrial insulations, but are very pleased by the increasing
number of studio customers they are seeing.

I purchased seven bundles of their 2" mineral fiber panels (6 per bundle)
for my DIY bass trap and broadband absorber project. The rock wool delivered
fantastic results!

help....I will probably pick up a used Gibson Les Paul or a new Epiphone Les Paul
when I have extra cash. Maybe an SG???

d your Internet Explorer cookies. Internet Explorer will

TIP Yes once again you can change a setting to stop this from EVER
becomming a problem. INTERNET EXPLORER>TOOLS>INTERNET OPTIONS>ADVANCED
tick the option "empty internet tempory file folder when browser is
closed" If you have a slow modem then you may wish to decrease the
maximum space for these files instead.
