    [Question] Anyone have experience with a Nikon D80 or Canon Rebel XSI?

    I'm going to buy one of these cameras this weekend and was curious if any of the folks here had experience with either one of them. My budget for the camera is around $400. I'll mainly be using the camera to take pictures of my musical gear/setups for recording, my incoming kid, my friends'...

    Desktop upgrade help - fast and quiet

    My computer needs an upgrade. After doing a quick Google search, it would appear that the computer itself gets poor reviews for speed and performance, something I need if I'm going to use the computer for recording music. There's been some good advice in other threads, so I'd figure I'd start...

    EP unmixed/raw cuts - KCWM's music v2 (11/24)

    My last thread was closed due to inactivity, so here's another one. My friend and I have been working on an self-recorded EP of my music, tentatively untitled, though a couple of ideas are floating around. I've started blogging about the process, gear used, and whatever else comes to mind at...

    no teaser at the end of Harry Potter 7 part 1

    Just wanted to post an FYI. At least at the theater my wife and I went to last night, there was no teaser or bonus footage for Harry Potter 7 part II after the credits. Good movie, IMHO. I'm waiting until part 2 to say it's great. They included more stuff than they normally do, but made...

    firewire issue?

    The mixing board/interface I use to record my music uses firewire instead of USB. Normally, my computer (Gateway DX4300 I believe) runs pretty silent (Antec 650w PSU) except when I'm playing WoW or Counterstrike, but I assume that's more of my graphic card fan. When I use the mixing board, the...

    You might be an ass if...

    A local sports radio morning show has a semi regular segment with the same name. There are some obvious behaviors that come to mind and then there are some less common things that people do that make you scratch your head and wonder if they were ever taught courtesy or manners. This isn't...

    Which would you choose (inspired by the time machine thread)

    If you had a choice between one of the following, which would you choose: a) The ability to go back in time and change history, without the ability to know how the change will affect the future, and with a high improbability of being able to fix it if the change ends up being negative. Want...

    big space in post when quoting

    Title says it all. There's a good 2-3" gap between the top of my post and the quoted text. Not sure if it does it on my home computer. This could very well be the outdated browser I use here at work.

    KCWM's Music - Updated 9/7/10

    I was going to turn this into a thread where I recorded songs every week, but, I've neglected doing that, but, until the system locks it down, I will post songs here as I finish them. A Child's Love http://soundcloud.com/cold-the-winter/a-childs-love Spin - electric...

    Social norms and normal vs. deviant (was "so this chick said that for $20, she'd...")

    ...let someone take a handful of pictures of her tits, but could not include her face or anything else incriminating. This girl is around 20 years old or so. Her thoughts were that pictures aren't that big of a deal and she's not ashamed of her body...and the thought of someone taking photos...

    A new recording

    http://soundclick.com/share?songid=8474375 It's a pretty simple song called "So Far". I need to rerecord the vocals because I worked in a couple of lines that are redundant. It's a rough recording, but I've been screwing up so many attempts that I decided to just post a raw version of it...

    I've had a wii for almost 2 years and I've just discovered bowling

    While spending the week at my in-laws for Thanksgiving, they were avid players of Wii Resort. We played bowling and frisbee golf while there and decided to pick up the game for myself. I had no idea that the bowling could be so fun (especially the 100 pin bowling). My wife and I have...

    Ask KCWM anything! - November 20th Birthday Edition!

    It seems that a lot of the people posting these threads are the well known "faces" of this place. So, I figured someone like me (maybe recognizable, maybe not) could join in the fun. And if no one asks, I can go about lurking in the shadows.

    My Xbox Elite died. I have a new one now...Cake.

    I bought it from Best Buy and had the Product Replacement Plan. I explained the issue, they replaced it. I now have a new 360 Elite, with my old hard drive (determined that the hard drive wasn't the issue), a new PRP, and an extra $108. Can't beat it with a stick. Thing is, I was going...

    What a fucked up movie. I'm kind of disappointed I spent my time watching it...but I was sucked in and couldn't help it.

    I will be judged...I didn't mind Dragonball Evolution

    So, out of morbid curiosity, I ordered DB:E this weekend using our HD On Demand service. I've watched both Dragonball and Dragonball Z cartoons (the edited USA versions on Cartoon Network) and, aside from the often mentioned "power ups", I enjoyed the shows. After reading opinions on this...

    Ok...video card sitch kinda solved. Need faster DDR RAM.

    Wow. I feel stupid. Apparently, my wife's computer actually has a PCI-E slot instead of of AGP slot. Everything I can find on the internet regarding model of computer (emachines T5048) and video card (Radeon x1300), along with what ATI Catalyst Control Center is telling me backs that up. I...

    My music

    http://www.myspace.com/coldthewinter http://www.soundclick.com/coldthewinter http://www.soundclick.com/galan I live in an apartment, so I do not have access to a drumset. Instead, I use programmed drums. I need to find a better snare sample to use. These have been recorded with a large number...
