I think I would like to hear it a bit thicker - more of the lower mids, similar to the fiddle. Doing this might mean adjusting the fiddle of course, which I like as is. I don't mind the fiddle's levels bouncing a bit, seems to fit the feel of this music, more live and immediate. This is all taste, of course. More people than you know have tinnitus. An audiologist friend explained it as the brain substituting signal that it thinks should be there that isn't.

Thanks >Deej, I have tinnitus and have for many years. I have a couple tricks. Once you have the frequencies and dbs you are losing identified by the audiologist, you can set up an EQ on the output of Cubase that you can switch on for mixing. Use a really transparent EQ, duh. For an instant treble boost, cup your hands behind your ears, catching more of the high freq content. This is not accurate by any means but it can help a little to hear a shaker or hihat better. Next, stop listening really loud and use cans when you are around drums or loud amps. I seem to have noticed that when I eat a lot of sugar it gets worse. That is probably the candida kicking in.

I bought a Power Mac Mirrored Door G4/1.25 GHz Dual Processor, Dual Bootable and put 2 gigs of Ram in it, I thought it would handle Paris no problem, such is not the case. I have tons of work in on these projects and then I get this error code; _tpt Que Project, error in queing the project and error in setting direction? One of the codes I get is Error code 1879048261/70000045. Anyone know what that is? And would anyone happen to know the best configuration for the Paris Memoery, the Disk Cache, Overview Cache etc? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks MichaelHey folks, Haven't been around much lately, but I just poked my head in today to see what was happening and saw this thread. Coincidentally, I happened to get to hear one of these at the East Coast Amp Show this morning (www.ampshow.com) If you aren't familiar with the amp show, its run out of a hotel. Each manufacturer gets their own hotel suite to show off their amps, so you can actually play a 50 watter full open. Very cool deal. Anyway, fractal was in the second or third room that I wandered into. I thought it sounded decent but definitely was not blown away. Then I got to hear more and more tube amps, and the fractal simply faded into the background. It wasn't in the same league at all. It suffered from the same thing that most amp modelers do, a lack of immediacy and 3-dimensionality. It was playing out of a decent set of monitors (QSC), but they were full range. I imagine that it would feel better out of a slightly driven tube power amp with some 12" guitar speakers. I actually own a 1st generation Vox Valvetronix amp, and I can say without hesitation that the Vox sounds much better on the clean to crunch tones. With higher gain, it might be a tossup, but I never cared for the high gain models on the Vox. A big difference is that the Vox still responds like an amp. It still has the punch and impact that the Fractal lacks. I can't speak for the pedalboard version of the Vox, especially if you are trying to do DI. My Vox amp sounds lousy run DI. In a DI contest, the fractal would surely win. If I were looking for a rig to do DI recording, I might consider the fractal, it might be the best solution on the market. But for a live situation though, the amp felt limp and flat and simply doesn't cut it for me. I also don't think it will compete with most real tube amps with a decent mic and pre for recording. I remember that I was blown away by the Pod when I first got it. I sold it 6 months later. I think this might be one of those type of products. A few other folks I spoke with at the show seemed to share my opinion. "Not bad for modeling, but..." Standouts in the tube amp department for me were Reason Amps and 65 Amps. Ooh la la....

I use a Vox Tonelab into a Mesa Boogie Satellite 60 combo 1x12, but without the tube power amp and speaker I would not use it - or any other preamp type for that matter.

I played a PRS yesterday (its been a while) and I didn't care for the 5-way rewire options to get the single coily sounds. I've also owned a few guitars with 4-wire humbuckers which also never did the single coil thing well enough for me. However, my approach to getting different guitar tones might be extreme. I own 22 guitars ;-) 1. IMHO, the cheapest way to get all those sounds would be to find a nice $200 strat copy that you like and put on a good humbucker in the neck. If you find the right hunk of wood and get a pro setup with fret leveling/redressing, some cheapies can be quite decent and vibey. If you have a little more cash, build a parts guitar. Still, it's always going to be a compromise in my opinion. 2. A better guitar that I like? I'm rather partial to my '61 ES-175 or my '66 ES-335 ;-) 3. For stage, I use a 50W '77 Marshall 2204 rev with a matching cabinet containing greenbacks. I need the higher gain for my live band, and the Vox doesn't cut it for me. 4. For my DI, I usually use my home-built Gyraf G9, which has a transformerless 12AU7 instrument input: http://www.gyraf.dk/gy_pd/g9/g9pd.htm I also use a home-made Alembic F-2B (attached) for bass. I generally dislike DI guitar/bass though. I never DI guitar unless I plan on re-amping. I always do a DI bass track, but I only wind up using the DI bass about 50% of the time, and usually under a miked bass channel. I don't use any modeling DI/software. -Chris "John" <no@no.com> wrote: > >Hey, I currently have a cheap mexican strat guitar and it's got good sound >and I play through and AX 212.

I've actually got OS9 running on my PC in an emulator so that I can compile the plugins from this machine. The issue is that Chuck said that the compiler setup for the Mac plugs is esoteric. He said until the mac was shipped to him, he couldn't get anywhere with them. I plan to transplant the disk image to my PC as soon as it arrives. But, if someone has a copy of code warrior for OS 9, I'll give it a try. I can load up OS 9 with a click of a mouse on my dual core Athlon here, which is really cool! As long as someone else can test them for me, I should be ok with the hardware I have. I did acquire a copy of code warrior already, but it only runs on OS X. Actually, let me send an email and see if I can find out what version of Code Warrior is needed. I'll let you know what I hear. I'd really like to get this done, too.
