    Looking for the right controller.

    Hello all, I'm looking for a simple midi controller that I can place on my desktop. Yes, I am stuck way back in time. I've never used one of those little controllers because I have been recording mostly live instruments. I have Pro Tools M-powered 8.0.5. Currently, I only use MIDI for recording...

    Installed Ivory II....made a small mistake.

    I installed Ivory II American Concert D on PT m-powered 8. It sounds very good! I installed it logged in as administrator and I had it up and running great fairly easily. I played it a good bit and everything is great. I logged out as admin and logged back in using my user name and opened pro...

    Long cables...

    I have a m-audio profire 2626 interface. I am looking to add another 2626 to gain enough inputs so that I can stop plugging and unplugging cables every time I get ready to record another instument. I will be hooking the two 2626's together using the digital I/O toslink connections. My question...

    Quick question about hooking up cd player to interface....

    I have a profire 2626 which has digital or optical I/O's, whichever term you want to use. I am not talking about spdif. My cd player has the same type connection. I believe it uses a toslink cable. I know the optical connector on the interface will allow eight channels of input when connenting...

    About to wipe out my PC....

    Well, actually, I'm not sure if it will be wiped out completely, but I'm having problems with windows and it may have to be reinstalled. What files do I need to make sure I save before putting the PC in someone else's hands? I don't mind having to reinstall Pro Tools, but I'd like to be able to...

    I need a new PC, How does this look?

    I guess I reached the limits of my Pentium 4 Dell 8300. It was already struggling to run Pro Tools anyway, but when I tried to remove some programs to free up some space, somehow I caused XP to became unresponsive. I ended up having to reinstall xp. But, since it is getting old, microsoft has...

    Can I "prop" up my old computer for a while?

    Hey guys, first off, I am not a computer guru, I just learn as I go. I really hate to sound dumb here. And, I really appreciate all the help I can get. I've been messing around with Pro tools off and on for a while, just trying to learn. I've been recording different instruments and messing...

    Why can't I figure out this Time Clock?

    I'm running PT 8.0.5 and a M-AUDIO ProFire 2626. I'm trying to use a Alesis SR-16 drum machine to lay down a simple drum track to follow while recording other instruments. It will be later replaced by live drums. I find it easier to follow than a click track. I cannot get PT and the SR-16 in...

    Hi everyone...can you guys help me with my space?

    Making progress I got rid of the flourescent lighting and I gots me a Lava Lamp! :D I took this picture with my Iphone and it looks a lot brighter than it actually is. It is quite comfortable now and the light is much more natural than the flourescent lights. I'm pretty happy with it. My...

    Hi everyone...can you guys help me with my space?

    I plan to do that. Haven't decided exactly what to do there yet, maybe buy stands or maybe build some. I'm still working on cleaning out clutter and gathering stuff to build bass traps and such. I have 24 pieces of roxul ordered. I can't wait to get the corner traps done. I need some ideas...

    Hi everyone...can you guys help me with my space?

    Ok.....so I've spent some time working on my place and I figured i'd see what you guys think so far. The lamp has got to go, I'll be replacing it with a lava lamp soon LOL. The speakers in the corners are going away and the pile of useless stuff around the drums will hopefully go away over the...

    Hi everyone...can you guys help me with my space?

    Hello everyone, this is my first post. Good to meet all of you.:) I'm new to recording and I'll be hanging around trying to learn as mush as possible. I have pro tools 8 m-powered and a m-audio profire 2626. I have an exterior building behind my home that I will be attempting to record in but...
