what's the conventional wisdom re the order of plugins (compression, eq, amp sim, reverb)?

When I record audio, especially guitars, I tend to intuitively want the chain to end with the amp sim going into the reverb, but where the other items fall is sort of a crap shoot for me.

How do you monitor while self-tracking?

Hey, guys! I recently came across the idea of recording my scratch tracks of myself singing/playing while having the mix playing thru my monitors.

Can anyone give a little tutorial/tip) on TL-64?

I'm trying to learn as much as I can about everything that's in Sonar - I know there are probably better hardware solutions, but this is what I got. I know what leveling does, but I'm having a hard time hearing the difference in sound on the TL-64 - except for distortion when I turn the effect way t..

A way to create my own sound to use in a softsynth? Sonar Platinum

Hay All,I don’t really understand this but I will give it a shot. I know that there is a way to take a sound and play it on a keyboard in a soft synth. So I guess it would be like creating a sound file that you could play on a soft synth. Does anyone know if there is something in Sonar Platinum that..

Guidence on choosing a Virtual Modelled Cabinet?

I'm new to guitars and now to modelled guitar amp+cab set ups. Can I get some general advice on cabinet selection when inside a DAW?
