Hello everyone.
When I was younger I wanted to be a rock star. Now I just want to rock. Ive been playing guitar off and on for about 15 years, but really became serious about it in the last 4 years. Ive alway loved live music but personal life's in this world can hold you in a straight jacket. I have recently been released from my straight jack and now have a new world to discover. I play and record through a Peavey Triple X head, Celestion vantage 30 speakers. A little EQ, Compression and Maximizer. I record through a Phonic firewire interface using cubase (getting Reaper very soon). I mic my cab with a sure 57 on the left and right side. One pointed at the center of the cone just off the grill and the other about 12 inches off the grill and off to the side pointed at the cone. (phasing problems if they are not set just right) I use them together and separately giving me two sounds for over laying guitar tracks. My passion is metal music but I love all rock and roll music. Was the biggest hair band fan and have a CD collection to prove it. My guitar skills are moderate, but I'm working on them every day. I can sing a little, at least I know when I hit the bad notes, saying I can sing might be pushing it a little. I can play bass guitar, but saying you can play bass and knowing how to set up a bass sound are two different monsters. I basically play everything by ear, so I can pick up just about any instrument and play it. Drums on the other hand are my weakest. I can keep time but haven't learned to do three deferent things at once. Ive been here on Kompoz for a year now and have made some good friends and some fun music. The people here are quick to help with questions and projects if you ask real nice. I also like to record bands in my humble little home studio. Here are a few band links that I have done work for. http://www.myspace.com/them80snc http://www.myspace.com/romeofalls http://www.myspace.com/rockstarforaday Thanks everyone for putting up with me.
