Hi, I'm looking for any suggestions on a small mixer with say 4 channels or more.  Ideally, I'd like to be able to record to a standard USB thumb drive.    Affordable is good, but 24 bit is even better. 

Would like to use for recording gigs and practices for 3 person acoustic project.  Thanks. 

Hey, I have an old Epiphone Valve amp and am looking for a cabinet to go with it.   I keep seeing the partnered amp/cab for sale, but not many of just the cabinet.  Any recommendations?   Thanks. 

Hey, what's up.   I'm a singer and rhythm guitarist who is looking for some general guidance on live sound.   I gig with an acoustic trio and we use a Carvin Stagemate PA.    I have a Behringer mic stand monitor, but am thinking about getting floor wedges for better foldback sound.     

Also, I play some electric guitar/vocals with an electric group.   Do any of you run both your vocals and guitar through wedge monitors?

My main concern is not blowing anything up and getting what I need out of a setup.

Thanks! 

Any recommendations for use with a Windows desktop?  Looking primarily to tune down a half step.   I have Audacity, but didn't seem to clear to me.   Looked at Pitch Switch,  Song Surgeon, and Transcribe briefly.

I tried to bring Roadhouse Blues up from key of E to G and Jim Morrison sounded like Alvin the Chipmunk.
Simple and effective is what I'm after.  Thanks! 

So I heard an acoustic version of Peter Frampton's Baby, I Love Your Way on public radio and immediately thought of Lowell George/Little Feat's Willin'.   I think the intro chords are very similar and seem to work in Open G tuning.

Looking for songs which prominently feature suspended barre chords.   Also wondering if anyone ever uses  Open G for some of these.   From memory, I believe these classic rock songs feature them:

Cold Gin - KISS
Hot Blooded - Foreigner
Can't Get Enough - Bad Company
Saturday Night's...Fighting - Elton John

(Rolling Stones feature many of these, too.)

Thanks.

So Beast of Burden is classic rock radio staple.   Some may love jamming the pentatonic scales along with it.   Others may be sick of the original.

In any event, I stumbled across what IMHO is a great cover by Buckwheat Zydeco on Youtube and iTunes.   His version is a step down (D, A, Bm, G).   Makes it even easier with first position campfire chords.   I've also played it with a little cross harp in G.

Thought I'd share.  "... I'll never be your Buckwheat of Burden."

OK, so I know there are some killer lead guitar licks in this tune and it's been tabbed a lot in standard tuning.

I was sort of forced to try to sing/scream this in a band once and it was a stretch -- I started fooling around with it in Open D, slowed it down, and it came out pretty cool.   

You can get a good groove/mute going with your strumming hand and you're off! I usually play it with cross harp/neck rack in G. 

Wasn't sure where to post this, but hope somebody can use it.
