Comparing version numbers and age of a product is a silly way to evaluate a software purchase.

Studio One's "0.0.1" releases are more than bug fixes... they also contain a new feature or ...

Wish I had the funds! I've always wanted one of those and now that Carvin isn't making amps anymore I doubly want one!

Is the tube complement on that 3x6SJ7, 2x6L6 plus a rectifier tube? That is a unique circuit if it's the one I think it is. I need to study that for a bit... never run across something like that. Shou ...

I know what really turned me off to them in the past was that you could not update them unless your Pro Tools software subscription was current. Didn't get one for that reason alone. Is this still the ...

I'm a Studio One user on the latest version. I jumped-ship when Gibson dropped SONAR and have not looked back. Studio One *IMO* is lightyears better than SONAR and I wish I never wasted all that time ...

Yes I have experimented with detuned cabinets for guitar (the kind you wear around your neck) quite a bit. I am actually a big fan. I've found that a 12" (nominal) deep detuned cabinet with a sin ...

also thanks John and James.

I will check out your video tomorrow when I have some down-time!

I have the 8 string model which has a more "steel-appropriate" bridge design. The 6 string model sounds like it has a Gibson-y single tailpiece-TOM style bridge...are the saddles removable? ...

Thanks for the tip Fred!

Hi all. New here and to lap steel. I'm from Turlock and hope to see some of you at some point. My band, Sonhouse Blues and Gospel Band plays the area frequently - but no lap steel - yet.
