What's up y'all? Got a guitar in my hands. I'm ready to go.

Kind of in a shred mood actually about I'll explain that in a second but today taskam is

bringing us Scott Ian and this is a bonus episode because usually it's a playing episode

you know the whole thing about no guitar is safe is we play guitar with the guitar hero but this is

a conversation that I'm bringing you that was too good to pass up,

an in-person face-to-face with Scott Ian. And he is holding a guitar, but it's not really plugged

in. So that doesn't count. So that's why this is a bonus episode, conversation with one of the

founding members of Anthrax, Scott Ian. Super psych. Thank you, TASCAM. Couldn't have done it without you.

And be sure to check out Taskam's new MixCast 4. It's a really awesome streaming station, podcast workstation. Whatever you like to do,

recording for people at once. It's got dual XLR quarter inch input so you can

plug either an instrument line in or a microphone or a drum machine or whatever, guitar

plugins or effects. Easy plug-in play, man. You just pull this thing out of the box,

plug in and you're recording in minutes.

Record directly to an SD card or to your favorite software on your computer.

You can even record multitrack files onto the SD card for editing later.

It's got built-in effects, you know, EQ, compression, reverb.

So you can add those to your inputs.

You can either record as kind of a multitrack or just go live and stream it straight to the web or wherever you are going with your live performance, audio, or podcast.

Very cool.

You can even have people call in on their phone and use Bluetooth or a USB, whatever you like.

There's different channels to get that phone call straight in or bring in streaming music

if you want, whatever.
