  1. The premise of the site is good, but I think some of the forums are unnecessary and a bit unclear. For example - Cabinet Design - if it's about people designing and building cabinets, it's "In Progress Builds", if it's a tutorial on what to think about, it's already covered in "Amp Building Tutorials", and if it's related to the cabinet design of production/already made amps, it's covered in one of the first 4 forums.

    Could do with a general chat forum up the top?

    Guitar Setups - if it's for electric it could go into 'electric guitar', if for acoustic, similar. Just feels like it's un-needed with those two already there.

    And as for songwriting - you only really need one forum to discuss all aspects of songwriting, same for homerecording.

    All the really successful forums I've ever seen develop small 'sub-communities', (take Harmony Central's Effects forum or Amps forum for example), of members that post on the board most suited to their interest.

    If you have too many categories, people thin out amongst those other forums, and those sub-communities don't develop, which keeps the board as a whole thin at a certain number of members.

    I think the forum's a great idea, just needs a bit of refining to make it clearer - so people know exactly where to post whatever they have, you know?

    I think your right. Ill go through it and weed out the usless forums.

  2. I would like to invite all of you to my new forums. It is still in its rough stage but I would like to get it going. It mainly focuses on tone, amp building, playing guides, home recording, amp plans, guitar templates. I did put a guitar building section in but I dont wish to take away anything from this forum. I hope to get a few tutorials on my Marshall 18 watt and my Vox ac30 up soon. My goal is to get some of you advance members over there.

    But all of you are welcome to join!

    Hope to see you all there!

  5. Well, I decided to sell my Behringer Eurorack UB1622FX-PRO Mixer. Never really used it(In the box). I wanted to plug it directly into the computer so i could have more places to plug in mics but, my delta 66 sound card takes care of that now.

    Specs:

    You get all the important elements right here in a 19” form-factor. This compact console offers 12 balanced high-headroom line inputs, 4 INVISIBLE MIC PREAMPs (IMPs), 2 aux sends per channel (1 pre/post fader switchable for monitoring/FX applications and 1 post fader for internal FX or as external send). You also get an effective, extremely musical 3-band EQ with semi-parametric mid band plus switchable low-cut filter on all mono channels. The integrated 24-bit digital stereo FX processor with 99 great-sounding VIRTUALIZER presets includes reverb, delay, chorus, compressor, tube distortion and others as well as a 1 kHz test tone generator. There are 2 subgroups with separate outputs for added routing flexibility and 2 multi-functional stereo aux returns with flexible routing.

    Ultra Low-Noise Design 16-Input 2/2-Bus Mic/Line Mixer with Premium IMP Mic Preamplifiers and 24-Bit Multi-FX Processor

    I'll get some pictures up soon.

  6. what is the reason you are looking for them?

    capaciters are fairly cheap,maybe buy a few and place in your guitar,record,then change,may take a while.but i've never heard anything online like that

    maybe some1 knows what happens when you rase the capaciter level etc?

    Like whitey said you should get a bunch and try them out yourself. You might hear a recording and install the cap and it sound completly different then the one in the clip.

    Sorry cant help you with the sound clips. Ive never heard of anybody doing that.

  7. How does the tone capacitor value affect the sound of the guitar?

    Most guitars and basses with passive pickups use between .01 and .1MFD (Microfarad) tone capacitors with .02 (or .022) and .05 (or .047) being the most common choices. The capacitor and tone pot are wired together to provide a variable low pass filter. This means when the filter is engaged (tone pot is turned) only the low frequencies pass to the output jack and the high frequencies are grounded out (cut) In this application, the capacitor value determines the "cutoff frequency" of the filter and the position of the tone pot determines how much the highs (everything above the cutoff frequency) will be reduced. So the rule is: Larger capacitors will have lower cutoff frequency and sound darker in the bass setting because a wider range of frequencies is being reduced. Smaller capacitors will have a higher cutoff frequency and sound brighter in the bass setting because only the ultra high frequencies are cut. For this reason, dark sounding guitars like Les Pauls with humbuckers typically use .02MFD (or .022MFD) capacitors to cut off less of the highs and guitars like Strats and Teles with single coils typically use .05MFD capacitors to allow more treble to be rolled off. Keep in mind that the capacitor value only affects the sound when the tone control is being used (pot in the bass setting) The tone capacitor value will have little to no effect on the sound when the tone pot is in the treble setting.
