The Frontier Psychiatrists (NEW LIVE VIDEOS ADDED)

I just uploaded some acoustic tracks from a session on a local radio station back in March (bottom three songs on the MySpace), so I thought now would be a good time to introduce ShortScale.org to my band, The Frontier Psychiatrists . Yes, we're named after the song by The Avalanches. Within the nex...

Last night, I dreamt that I had a Shiva, and it made everything awesome. It must be a sign.

I bought a 'Great Destroyer' through The Last Guitarist, just last week (and I fucking love it) > davemeister23@yahoo.com < As far I'm aware he's the official UK stockist of the Dawrfcraftz. Apparently he's got some Shiva in stock, too. BWAH! Of course! He's on here every now and again. Boy do I fe...

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Me5QrKEDszM[/youtube] I made a demo of the DD-3 at about 1 o'clock this morning. I hope this is the right thread for it...

i love all of the "how many times can we re-house the OD3?" pedals from MXR You make a valid point. They sound nice though. I played around with a GT once, I thought it sounded better then the other MXR pedals. maybe i was just fooled by the sweet green case. Are they any different? The o...

I think our drummer only uses one rack tom anyway, so that's okay. I'll do what you say and have one mic on the kick and one pointing at the snare. That's what we've done before, and it seemed to pick the toms up fairly well, I just thought you might know a better way of doing it. Cheers.

Really informative, this. Any advice for where to put mics if I'm only using two for drums? I'll be recording some songs live with my full band soon, and we can only do 5 tracks at once (2 guitars, 1 bass, 2 drums).

The Line 6 POD Studio UX1 seems to be not much less expensive than the Zoom thing I already use.

Thanks, Doog. I'll try and get hold of one of those converters, it sounds perfect!

I usually mic up guitars as well, but a USB condenser could work for that.

What would a 1/4" to mini-jack converter look like? They have a wall of little things like that at a local guitar shop, I could have a look.

A Cheaper Alternative

Two or three years ago I bought myself one of these: http://www.comeon.co.jp/shop/effector/images/g21u.jpg I never use it for effects anymore, so I keep considering selling it. The only problem is that I use it for recording - having a jack input and a USB output me...

It's my birthday soon, so I'm hoping to get some money for some new pedals. If I get enough, the plan is (on top of the GT-OD I already use) to get: Boss DD-3 EHX Doctor Q A fuzz of some sort, possibly the Devi Ever Bit So, my question is, what order do I put them in?

I usually hate Toronados, but THAT is massively sexy.

For some reason they must just look better 'empty.'

Yeah that is a lot nicer. Don't dig the pearl on a sunburst body though.
