Just as a clarification on my above post: M-Audio says the "M Audio Delta AP Multichannel" option is intended for PC's having more than one sound card. They weren't clear on what other option to use instead but this is the only one that worked correctly for me. My PC has Soundmax onboard sound...

I don't know if this has been answered yet but here's what I use with the Audiophile 2496 and CEP 2.1 in Win XP: In Delta Control Panel... Monitor/Mixer: Boost all levels. Patchbay: Select Monitor Mixer In CEP... Device Properties... Wave Out: Select M Audio Delta AP Multichannel Wave In...

Re: apple = pricey Well, $35 isn't very pricey. Seems like it could be useful, with a laptop for example, and the specs seem pretty good. Even on a desktop PC there's a lot of noise (electrical and otherwise) inside a computer that can be picked up by a soundcard. I know I had to move mine...

Actually it's not a soundcard. It's a small and inexpensive ($35) USB adapter that has mic/line inputs and audio outputs from the PC.

Has anyone had any experience with the iMic USB interface from Griffen Technology? Specifically with Win 98 SE and Cool Edit Pro 2.0. http://www.griffintechnology.com/products/imic/ Thanks.

Has anyone had any experience with the iMic USB interface from Griffen Technology? http://www.griffintechnology.com/products/imic/ There are some limitations with Win98 SE and below, but it's supposed to input audio fine. According to the site it won't work with some basic Win apps like Sound...

The volume of both tracks SOUND even, but after adding delay to one there is a drop in the wave display peaks for that track. If you went to normalize them one would boost slightly higher than the other. In any case it sounds as if the slight difference in volume contributes to the overall...

Got it, thanks. This seems to work pretty well at around 35ms on a fingerpicked acoustic. Brings down the volume a bit on the one track but that's easy to adjust in Cool Edit if I have to. A.

Thanks for the suggestions. Just a followup on using delay to see if I understand it: I would make a copy of the original mono track, pan one left and one right, and add delay to each track. Maybe slightly different delays to each, say 15 ms on one and 40ms on another? Does this make sense...

I posted this as part of a thread in the recording section, but it may be more appropriate here: Does anyone have any tips for opening up a mono acoustic guitar track recorded to a single mic? Delays, reverbs, etc? This is for songs with just a single acoustic guitar and vocal. Mics are a MXL...

Along these lines, does anyone have any suggestions for opening up a mono acoustic guitar track recorded to a single mic? Delays, reverbs, etc? This is for songs with just a single acoustic guitar and vocal. Mics are a MXL 603s (guitar) and a MXL 2001 (vocal). No double-tracking. I have access...

Not sure if this was answered yet. Anyway, use the outs on the mixer to the line inputs on the BR-532. At that point you have the option of recording to one track or two. One is of course mono, panned center, two is each track panned hard R/L by default. You can center them later if you like...

Cool Edit Pro 2.0 Can someone suggest a good compression setting for leveling out the dynamics slightly of a fingerpicked acoustic guitar. I don't want to squash the sound and lose all dynamics, just even out the levels a bit. Same for quiet vocals. Also, I'm trying to figure out best order in...

This is a specific question to running mics into a Behringer 802 and out to a recorder: Is it possible on the 802 to use a phantom powered mic (603) and a non-powered mic (SM-57) into the mixer at the same time? There are no individual on/off switches for power on the mic channels (1-4)...

Thanks for the replies. I'll give the suggestions a try. A.
