Glad to hear you're getting some of those issues straightened out Ed. Yeah, I got flippin' fed up with drivers man and have gone to 16 bit/44.1kHz straight into my DAW running Sonar right out of my ZED board. The onboard ADAC in the ZED is very comparable to BLA's quality and clarity so the 16 bit is working out just swell. I'm still working in a 24 bit environment within Sonar though using 24 bit plugs. But my joy has been no drivers, no compatibility issues, no latency, no hiccups, no freezing, yada yada yada. Just a nice solid analog signal converted by hardware with no stinking drivers to alter my experience.
Anyway, I'm super jazzed for you about your D17. I love Washburn guitars and have always felt they're a huge bang for the $$. Even the lowly D9 is an amazing little strum box. The Washburn really sweeten up when you tune them down a step to A=420 instead of 440. Really beautiful tone. I thought I was crazy til I read that quite a number of other guys do the same thing. Congrats, it's always nice to have a new guitar.

Scott, I don't think sly is the word. I think the fact that my ex bought me that guitar 25 years ago had a lot to do with it.
I might try that, DS, but not now. 1st gig with it is Saturday and I'm not about to throw myself any curves!
Yep, wait til afterward for sure. The tone and ease of playing and easier key to sing in can be addictive amigo. Good luck at your show. Wish I were there to help you record it. |
