Was the neck super thin like an Ibanez or did it have a fatter feel to it like a Gibson/Epi? I am madly in love with Explorers, but only like the traditional Explorer shape. I don't care much for the look of the Peavey Rotor, the post-lawsuit Ibanez Destroyer, or any of the new "super pointy&qu...

But it's an ESP, more or less, so can it really suck?

Well I'm going to check out the program. Maybe I can offer some guidance on it, if you want it. I've been completely in the box sequencing stuff for a couple years now.

If not, he should be. I don't know if it's exactly accurate, but I've found I have fewer latency issues across the board when I use most things as a VST rather than a stand alone.

I have Guitar Rig 3 and I've had some trouble with it. I do like how it has a Dimebag setting. However, when I play my guitar, no sounds comes out until almost a second later, making it near impossible to play since I don't hear it long after its been played. Maybe it's my interface.

This is seriously :tup: It's made by the same company that makes Reaktor, the soft synth program I use to make all my bleeps and bloops.

If you have an audio interface, I highly recommend checking this program out.

Yeah you can't beat 40 for an EMG 81. :tup:

I used to hate them, but I wanted something smooth with a high output for distortion. Figured I'd try it out.

I assumed as much, especially considering compression can be added in production anyway.

Regardless, I definitely need a new EQ and tuner. May as well spend a couple extra bucks and put 'em in a rack... I'm thinking.

Do any guitarists here use any rackmount stuff? What do you use? For all I've done musically this is an area I've never explored.
