Let's Rock!!

Following on from my acoustic guitar that I was gifted for christmas I decided to purchase an electric guitar over the weekend.

Primarily this decision was so that I can practice it at night in the computer room which is located near the kids bedroom without waking them up by having headphones plugged into the amp. Secondly, I can plug the guitar direct into the PC and have the computer generate the effects such as reverb, overdrive and distortion etc with the other added benefit of also begin able to record what I play direct to disc. The long term goal is of course to be able to create instrumentals to tracks that I want to sing on karaoke but that will never appear otherwise, such as album tracks.

Currently I'm using a sequencer called Fruity Loops which is fine for drums, piano, bass etc but there's no substitute other than a real guitar for the tracks that have guitar in them. There's a long way to go yet until I can play full songs but I'm finding that I can play 'snippets' and record them into the pc individually before piecing them all together to make it sound like the whole track was played in one go. I'm still practicing at playing both guitars properly though in the meantime.

Hi! I just wanted to ask if you ever have any issues with hackers?
My last blog (wordpress) was hacked and I ended up losing many
months of hard work due to no back up. Do you have any methods to stop hackers?

Have you ever considered about adding a little bit more than just your articles?
I mean, what you say is valuable and all. However think about if you
added some great images or videos to give your
posts more, "pop"! Your content is excellent but with images and video clips, this website could definitely be one of
the most beneficial in its niche. Very good blog!

At this time it looks like Wordpress is the preferred blogging platform

When I originally commented I clicked the "Notify me when new comments are added" checkbox and now each time a comment is added I get several emails with the same comment.
Is there any way you can remove me from that service?
