Hey guys I have been doing quite a lot of experimenting this week with cubase and reaper. First I had to figure out how to get my pedal connected to the computer and then get everything installed and working properly. I am VERY new at all this, and after a few hours of trial and error I managed to get a decent recording of Jerry Arcidiacono's Adeste Fideles lesson, which I have uploaded(Hopefully it works, I'm new at this as well). This was recorded in cubase and I had the option to save the file as either a windows media file or a WAV file. I saved it as a WAV file but I was wondering which is better to use? Also any tips for better sounding recording are welcome, as well as any advice and pointers about the guitar playing and tone. I should also say that the ending lick in this recording is nowhere near what Jerry did in the actual lesson, quite frankly I'm still working on learning the lick he did, and for the sake of getting a decent recording I used one I was more comfortable with. -------------------- My Sound Cloud Profile: http://soundcloud.com/casinostrat

Jstcrsn- My pedal is an RP 500 from digitech, and actually I had trouble getting the signal to come through the computer speakers, It was coming through the headphone jack of the pedal itself, and when I unplugged the phones from the back of the pedal I didn't get any sound at all through the computer speakers, so I had to record with headphones. I agree it sounded a little apart from the song, and hopefully the more I record the better I will get at making it sound integrated. When I recorded this the sum total of my recording knowledge consisted of how to set the left and right paremeters of the song, and I learned that the same day
Ben- Yeah I'm working on learning Jerry's ending for the song, I can actually play it but not well enough to record yet, so I opted for a more Rock n roll/Blues ending since that is an area I'm comfortable with. Regarding winlame, I was using Reaper the other day, and I believe it mentioned this program, and recomended it for converting files, and with your recomendation as well I definately will be downloading it! Quick question, would a recording of this type be suitable for an audio collab? I believe that Sinisa is doing a Hard Rock Audio Collab and I was thinking of joining, but wanted to make sure that files of this type can be used? -------------------- My Sound Cloud Profile: http://soundcloud.com/casinostrat

Ben-thanks for the answer to the question about Sinisa's collab, I downloaded Winlame and figured out how to convert files, with that program it is extremely easy!
Ivan- Glad you liked the tone I used for the recording, I used my Gibson Les Paul and just kind of experimented with the pedal till I got a sound that was close to the orginal tone used in the lesson. It actually sounds better through my Amp, but I can only record through a computer at the moment. -------------------- My Sound Cloud Profile: http://soundcloud.com/casinostrat
