more information
The purpose of the Guitar Nine Records' Home Studio Registry is to allow owners and users of home/project studios to communicate with other musicians who are doing similar projects and work.
Far from being the solitary musician locked in a spare room with a bunch of expensive toys, you will finally be able to hook up with others who have many of the same dreams and aspirations as you do.

Main purpose: Demos
Secondary purpose: Demos
Recording knowledge level: Above average
MIDI knowledge level: Just learning
Typically work (with): Alone
Completed songs/demos/jingles: 61-100
Future plans: My plans are to completely write and record a full album before bringing in other musicians. At that point, I would attempt to put together a band that could play the material live if necessary.
Guitars: MANY!
The main recording guitar I use my two Charvel 750XLs (one has an EMG 81 (neck) and an EMG 85 (bridge) -- the other has a DiMarzio Tone Zone in the bridge and a Duncan `59 in the neck - These guitars RULE for recording.
I also use a ton of other guitars as well (such as):
ESP Skulls & Snakes
ESP Sunburst Tiger
ESP Kamikaze IV
Ibanez RG520QS (EMGs)
Ibanez RG560 (EMGs)
Ibanez RG570 (EMGs)
Charvel Model 4 (Custom) (EMGs)
Ibanez RG Custom (EMGs)
and a few others.
Keyboards: The only "keyboard" tones that are on my recordings at this point are from my Boss DR-5 and from various samples from sample CDs
Sound modules: No Midi implemented in my recordings yet.
Percussion: My main drum machine is a Boss DR-770.
I also have (but very rarely record with anymore) a Boss DR-5
Effects: I do use a Sonic Maximizer on my guitars, otherwise, the only effects used for guitar are a little reverb and sometimes a slight delay on my leads.
All other effects used in my recordings are from Cool Edit Pro 1.2a.
Microphones: All of my recordings are direct, except for vocals, which I use a Shure 58.
Mixer: Mackie CRX-16
Tape decks: None.
All digital recordings are mixed down (in computer), then burnt to CD audio.
Monitoring system: Alesis Monitor One powered monitors and Yamaha powered monitors
Computers: Custom built Intel PIII 1Ghz, 512Mb Ram, Four 36 gig SCSI disks (Ultra160).
Music software: Cool Edit Pro 1.2a is the main program for recording and editing.
Every now and then I`ll use Sonic Foundry Sound Forge for touching things up.
Other equipment: Line6 Flextone II HD guitar head, Line6 Floorboard, Laney 4x12 cabinet.
I also have a rack rig that includes an ADA MP-1, Digitech TSR-24S, Alesis Quadraverb GT, Sonic Maximizer, Hush II Noise Reducer, TubeWorks MosValve power amp.
