Cheers!

Anything made by Thermionic Culture or API is nice.

If that's the price range of mixers you're looking at I woudn't bother.

Fuck me. That was some crazy shit.

Yeah it's fairly expensive. It can do amazing things to synths and drums though.

The Culture Vulture in my sig is designed to do just this. It can do phat warm second harmonics or the more aggressive 3rd harmonic distortion.

You can't get a vst to sound like a real sax.

Find a friend who can play one and record them is the best way.

spend more time on your drums! seriously. beats are what get people moving. a nicely-controlled sub will fill a room, sure, and a well-written song is what people will remember, but if you're concerned about shit sounding good and getting a good reaction, get your drums banging. they can be huge or...

I think Macc should have to interview people before posting on here for the first time, or pass some kind of 11+ exam :lol: :lol: :lol: it would actually clean this place up proper! There wouldn't be many people left. "Some day the rain will clean the scum from the streets" lol

I use this one with metal tapes. Sounds really cool. You get heaps of tape hiss though.

Also with any outboard equipment you're going to need a half decent A/D converter or it's not worth the effort imo. i dunno about that it certainly will add to it, but you are still going to get that awesome tape grit no matter what. i recorded drums onto VHS and then back into my interface, and it...

Analogue guitar pedals such as chorus, delay and distortion are fun to use.

The problem with these is you have to get the impedance and gain staging right.

That kind of deck will make things sound very lo fi.

I sometimes use tape recorders like that to make synths and samples sound old. Also for really dirtying up drums. But it's not something that you'd want to use on everything imo. It's cool for the occasional track or effect.

The good softsamplers these days have pretty much zero aliasing.

Happy birthday bro
