Bobby,
I believe what you're referring to is known as 'side-chain' compression. That's when a track is compressed based on another signal entering the compressor through its 'side-chain.' One use of ...

Saw Vince Gill's show on Saturday night. Absolutely wonderful. One very small thing that spoke volumes was the fact that the show was scheduled to start at 7:30. At 7:29 seventeen musicians walked ...

I think Chris is onto it. I backed it way off 'til the B flatted and stopped, then tuned the B back, then tuned the change up. I still can't get it quite there; when the B is good, the C# is a littl ...

First off, I've tried searching the archives and haven't been able to find a post that addresses this issue...

This is a pretty crazy fix, but it worked great for me on a single neck steel that I started on. I was having the same prob, strings sliding out of tune after just a few minutes. The tuning machines ...

So yesterday I took everyone's advice and made some changes. First of all, I realized that the LKL had a stop-screw near the rear apron (closest to me)and had been traveling out to far, raising way p ...

Good idea...the tennis ball...will work on it...like I alluded to before, if you know that there's a way to practice/work to get someplace, it turns a problem into a challenge, then a solution.
