I've been in to recording since I've been in to music. But I did not have training or money so everything was self learned on the cheap. I started with cassette decks. First one then two. Bouncing tracks from one deck to the other while adding a new instrument/track. Dolbly cannot overcome that much hiss. 😃 But it was all I had. Next was better cassette decks, then a Fostex 4 track recorder and of course mixing live into cassette from a 12 channel mixer. Next was mod-tracker tracks on my Amiga computer that I combined with live guitar/ vocals onto either cassette tape or Fostex 4 track depending on who had it that month. Then some glorious time with a Fostex 8 track reel to reel. which felt like heaven. This was early 90's iirc. Then a lull as life and wife and work took over. the Cool or sad thing depending on how you look at it... I have recordings of all this stuff. I wonder who else has really early recordings? got to go so I will continue with the progression later. to be continued.

I thought to mention that in the US we use US Letter. I could have scanned as A4 but I guess I just expected them to be able to change their settings. That may be the slight difference you experienced. Glad it worked!

Mostly pedals and a couple of mics.

I am serious. When I was 6 or 8 I really thought this was true. How else to explain it? Yes, I am fucking old. I am not tech illiterate now.. 😄

Merry Christmas!

The beginning of ZR's post was full of great info, and the ending was full of shit.... 😇😀😃

Rental is usually a good thing by reputable shops. Unless you want to have your kids decide how to get rid of it once you are gone....😄

When summary's or recent posts info doesn't provide accurate information about the response.... Not meaning to mislead but thought was very funny related to the thread.

You can also buy software that can read data from damaged drives. I mostly use Macs but the software runs on both. if it is an external drive sometimes it is the encasement that goes bad. Sometimes it is the drive. Put your ear to the drive and plug it in. If you hear it spin up that means you might be able to recover something. If it clicks and chirps and then spins back down. odds are not as good. If you hear nothing it could be the enclosure or power supply.

I have an 83. Would that year’s work?

This is a video screen grab from 1984 from an VCR recording. I have pictures of the bass but not many of me playing it once I got it.

The classic is. when the Levee breaks But I still love the sound of this one from Styx.

I have one of those I bought new for $300 in 2004. Bought for the same reason. I couldn't afford a USA model. Nice guitar. I replaced the pickups. The originals are okay but new pickups helped a lot. Seems like they were made from 2002 or so .

Not always. I was of limited cash so I had a peavy mark IV with an 18-10 cabinet… it stayed in my Garage a few years…

With this guitar you might get to participate in some Calofornication….

These are not the cabinets you are looking for. Sorry, disregard this. I have no idea. I just couldn't resist. There was a force that compelled me to reply! with a bad joke...

I love having real buttons I can push to control things. In my 2007 Z4 I can also use the steering wheel controls so that is a bonus. It has a great sounding stereo. Perfect for the rock I like to listen to .

I am still using and iPod classic in my car. Took out the spinning drive it came with and replaced with a SD card. Set up multiple playlists and control with the car stereo.

Must Resist.....

I was planning to make this trip once I heard but lots of life has intervened in the last months, not only two hurricanes taking out our car and fence. I would be all over joining you guys on bass. Only needed to learn Green Manalishi-Priest version . Really hoping you guys find someone.

Damn, Just no way I can go right now. Hope you find someone!

We made it through safe with no home damage. Fence and trees dow in yard.

I sorta like it, but I sorta like having 8 grand more....

Hurricane to the left of me, Tornadoes to the right! Here I am... Stuck in the middle with you!

This is the best group of the worst people you could ever hope to find....😆😁😇
