I did the same thing a while ago when a friend and I were discussing whether the first few bars before the drums were swung. Slowed it down, and it was plain as day he was swinging it.
Is there a setting for monitoring preferences? In my DAW if I set it to have the audio hardware handle monitoring, no sound will come through the speakers while I record, but when I play back the track I can hear it. Also, how are your speakers connected to the computer?
Nope, didn't try any of that.
In most cases, yeah I assume the tradeoff would be worth it. Anywhere the level of the guitar signal doesn't matter much. In this particular case I wanted the looper to hit the front end of my 4104 hard, the same way my pickups do, and generally perfectly replicate...
I picked up a JamMan Express XT to use for tech stuff, piping guitar into an amp while I'm poking around inside, and ran into what I think is a lack of headroom.
First sign of trouble: playback almost always sounded duller than the original signal.
Further investigation: ran from the looper...
It's around, but doesn't get a lot of airtime now it seems. Basically it's a bass reflex with huge speaker-sized ports and oversized baffles. "Detuned" in the sense it's not tuned like a modern bass reflex would be, with fancy filter transfer functions and stuff. Found out about it from Kevin...
Hmm... Where were we? Right, not using 57's. Haven't had the volume issues again, and just today finally built a PZM wedge stereo mic array. Pro: it sounds pretty realistic. Con: realistically, sticking your head right in front of a speaker cabinet isn't that pleasant. Beaming is biting, I tweak...
In the most recent Malcontents episode Steve said that a TAD would definitely pop if driven hard, he wouldn't be surprised if a JJ did too, and that he would be surprised if a Mullard did. Timestamped link to the start of the question:
Interesting. The whole impedance stuff is rig-dependent, as it's something that varies between different pieces of gear, maybe in this case everything aligned just right so it's either not there or not noticeable. Also the interface wouldn't be able to buffer the guitar signal, it has to be...
I meant that in the context of previous conflicts with other members and the mods, and warnings given, her post came in seemingly targeted at getting bant again. Maybe I missed it, but I don't recall you having scuffles in the same way.
