Çok yönlü gitar vs Uzman gitar
Bu yazı, gitarist bir arkadaşımla sohbetimizden alıntıdır. KVK sebebiyle ismini açıklamıyorum. Çok yönlü gitarın katma değeri, beklentinin altında kalabilir Bas gitarda G&L L-2000 diye bir model var mesela. Switch'ler, serisi, paraleli derken 18 kombinasyon var. Ama denediğimde işime yarayacak 3-4 ton buldum, kalanı mikste kaybolacak ince detaylar gibime geldi. Uzman gitarlar genelde daha problemsizdir Subjektif … Continue reading Çok yönlü gitar vs Uzman gitar
Tone Is In The Hands
Invest in hands before guitars The guitar is only one component of the produced sound. How and where you attack the strings with your right hand changes the sound dramatically.

Limiter, Compressor Olur Mu?
Öncelikle; Compressor'un ne olduğunu bilmiyorsanız How I Use Compressors başlıklı yazıma göz atmanızı öneriyorum. Compressor; 1:2 veya 1:4 modunda düşük Ratio ile kullanıldığında ve sesi açıldığında, düşük sesli notaları yükseltme ve yüksek sesli notaları kısma özelliği sayesinde dinamik aralığı daraltır. Daha dengeli ve eşit bir ses dağılımı sağlar. Limiter; 1:10 veya 1:20 gibi yüksek bir … Continue reading Limiter, Compressor Olur Mu?

Fender has many guitar & bass series; which can be confusing for the customer. In this post, I will make a clear ascending ranking of theoretical quality levels of their instruments.
