    Recommend string gauge for drop G

    All right, the old fart that I am, I've never tuned lower than drop C. I was listening to Reptile from Periphery the other day to see what the kids do these days and the tuning is G G C F A D apparently. I was like "ok, that's pretty low on the low G string". Obviously my regular 10 strings...

    Wazzupp everyone?

    Has been a long time since I've been on this forum. Is it still alive? What have people been up to lately? Is anyone from the 'old' folks still around? Would be nice to hear from you. I despise facebook, youtube is a sea of shit lately so I miss the good old days when we used to hang out on the...

    Malmsteen - World on Fire

    Every time the man brings out a new record, I'm like ok, sure it can't get worse than this. But he can prove me wrong every time. Seriously, what is he doing? His latest record sounds worse like my first home demo recorded on tape in the late 90's. I used to be his biggest fan in the world, and...

    Overdrive/distortion comparison

    I know this has probably been done plenty of times but if we stop posting this forum will come to a complete stand still right? I went out and bought 9 different overdrive/distortion pedals on ebay and made a direct comparison. The first vid is with full mix, the second is the pedals soloed...

    Let's bitch

    I'll start it off: Why does everyone feel the urge to put tons of mediocre videos about shit no one cares about on youtube? So annoying when you're looking for a good review on xyz product or a decent tutorial about xyz technique and you get swamped with bullshit, it's not even funny anymore. I...

    TRS vs balanced vs stereo vs mic vs xlr vs...

    Might sound like a stupid question and it might have been covered before but I couldn't find anything so here goes: I got a bit confused lately and never actually thought about this before. To the guys who know basic electronics, are trs, balanced and mic cables essentially exactly the same and...

    Worth upgrading to Cubase 8.5 from 6?

    Title says it. I'm still on Cubase Artist 6 cause I'm not buying this upgrade crap every year. However the latest release does look like it has some interesting new features (new to me anyway...) like chord pads, new mixer, Prologue 2 etc. So is it worth to upgrade from 6 to 8.5? Do the new...

    Youtube conversion/encoding

    Wasn't sure where to post this as we don't have a video related subsection but anyway... The other day I uploaded a video to youtube, nothing unusual here but after youtube was done with the processing I noticed that the audio was out of sync with the video by maybe 1/10 second which is really...

    Is it just me or...

    Is this forum slowly dying? Well dying might be a bit strong but when was the last time I've seen Ola, SkinnyViking, Lasse or Felix or any of the old ones post something? (Yeah I know, they probably have lives too ...) I keep checking every couple of days but the same old posts are still there...

    My first 7 string guitar, first guitar with Seymour Duncan Blackouts! Kicks serious ass, I'm loving it so far. Although they could have left that retarded lightning symbol on the fretboard. So 90's lol

    Waves Q10

    So the Waves Q10 Equalizer is on offer today and is a no brainer really for $29. My question is, do I even need this plugin? Will it be better than the stock Cubase eq? I'm basically trying to justify the purchase somehow so help me out lol
