The Turbo Tuner ST-122 is currently being revamped to have a metal housing and leg/mic stand clamp.

Do you know if it will have a true bypass too? I've had my eye on the ST-122, but the combination ...

On my right hand side, tilted back about 40 degrees and right up against the legs of my pedal steel. I mainly have it there so that the controls are within reach.

I also have a pair of Sennheiser HD280s that I'm very happy with. I'd also recommend checking out Audio-Technica's ATH-M50. I haven't gotten a chance to try them yet, but they have gotten many rave re ...

A correction -- the bassist from Whitey Morgan saw my post and emailed me. Jimmy Mo is currently playing steel with the band. However, all the pedal steel on their record was done by Fred Newell.

On emusic.com I recent stumbled onto Whitey Morgan and the 78's new release "Honky Tonks and Cheap Motels". The songs mostly fall along a spectrum from country to southern rocks, with heavy ...

Norm Hamlet's Bigsby. Jimmy Day and Curly Chalker's Wright and my Caterpillar forklift:

Yikes! The forklift would appear to be required equipment. How much does the quad weigh in the case?

So bOb, could you give me an example other than 440. Where would 438 be? Or 442? I never was good at math.

438:
(438-440)*4 = (-2)*4 = -8 cents

442:
(442-440)*4 = (2)*4 = +8 cents

George, while a 4 ohm minimum is probably a good conservative rule, some amps can handle a 2 ohm load. For example, the Crow Macro-Tech series can handle a 2 ohm load ([url=http://www.crownaudio.com/a ...

In many situations you want to have different monitor mixes for different sections of the stage. You need a separate amp channel for each of these mixes.

Today we see effects as plug-ins for recording software on computers. We see effects that are downloadable via computer into dedicated devices like the Line6 POD. I think that the size and flexibil ...
