Yeah, guys like me and KL slap a PC in the corner of a bedroom, hook it up to
our gear and call it a "studio".  Well, it's not a studio, there are some
things you just can't do in this environment.  No isolation rooms, no natural
acoustics, no expensive gear such as plate reverbs or high end mixing boards,
no way to record through a mic'd Marshall stack.  And a real MKII.  Arrrgggh!

The sun is in my eyes, my glove is too big and I tripped over a rock. :)

Hey, is there an echo in here?  OK Fritz, I get the picture, but I'm not trying to make excuses, just looking for a way to get better recordings out of my Tron.  Believe me, I'm very happy with what I have, just wish there was a way to crank up the volume in my ∗studio∗.

Actually, there have been quite a few good tips since starting this discussion, but most of them I can't use in my current environment.  I had no idea that so many people were miking up their Trons.   I'll have to try that one of these days when my neighbors are on vacation.
