Have a working Win7 AMD 939 dual core PC setup. I want to swap out the Motherboard with a AM3 socket setup that will have a triple core cpu and obviously new RAM. I've done this before and it worked no problem. It was with WinXP, and when it fired up it installed new drivers for the PCI bus...

Has anyone else encountered this situation... (I can give more info if anyone wants it but I'll keep this to the point) My Files don't show up but the space is still occupied My OS (Vista) went MIA -the Drive is partioned C:\OS and Programs D:\ my Files and Docs -I Formatted C: and...

I've been planning on getting a Fast Track Pro for a simple Laptop setup... and today I read this statement... "I've used everything from the best SSL equipment in the world to a fast track pro and an audio buddy. I'd obviously choose the more expensive stuff but there is NOTHING that the...

I'm hoping to get some opinions on my plan here to get some Ventilation in my studio. I've read in the past that putting 2 180* degree turns in a Air Duct line will help stop some of the Sound going through the line. I have a pretty good sound Dead room. Neighbors 15' away and no complaints...

Hi, I am still running a Socket A AMD 2800 Barton, 2G Ram setup for my Recording PC. I have recently repaired a friends 939 setup and was amazed at How Much More performance his PC had. I did a Stress test and it seemed like I could run as many Plug-ins as I wanted. I loaded up about 8...

I have 2 tunes w/ files that were recorded at 44.1 but the PC sees them as 48khz Story Line... A session I recorded last week w/ only 7 tracks. (4Drums, Bass, 2Keys) I used a Template in Cubase SX that was set to record at 48khz 24bit. After 2 jams I realized that my Lucid Converters were...

I bought 6 mics (sdc) w/ the hopes to get 2 closely matched pairs... one for me and one for a friend. How does this method sound too you? Record w/ one of my better mics (cemc6) some keys jangling. Set up a mic stand about a foot and a half away from one of my Monitors. Play and Record the...

I came across this CD Recorder HHB CDR830plus while looking for a new CD player. It got me to thinking.... Instead of doing a Sample Rate conversion and Dithering... couldn't someone use their Mix and Master programs (SX, Wavelab, for me) keeping the project in the higher rates (24-96 ect..)...

It's been a few years since I built a PC but I remember that you wanted CAS 2-2-2 latency for RAM. Now days when I see deals at Tiger or NewEgg it seems the performance RAM is 4-4-4. Anyone know if one or the other makes that much of a difference in performance? Lately when I turn on a CPU...

Would there be much signal loss or degradation using these XLR to 1/4" adapters compared to using XLR to 1/4" trs Cables? I'm re-wiring my Rack (new Gear) and there will be times when switching between Pres, Comps and Converters would be pretty convenient popping one of these adapters on or...

I made some Super chunk Corner Traps this last week and thought I'd share my experience w/ ROXUL for those who are trying to find info. on it. First I got a bundle of the AFB (12 pc. 16"x 48" x 3" = 64SF, cost $40, it made 2 8' tall traps). 2 Lumber yards w/ in 3 miles had it. It was pretty...

I want to improve my AD/DA... on a budget :D I have 16 channels, a Echo Layla24 w/ a M-Audio Octane via ADAT. I'm thinking for $500 - $700 I could... 1. Get a Benchmark DAC-1 or 2. Get a used Lucid ada8824 My thoughts are the Benchmark would run as my Master clock (Right?) and would probably...

Are these the same type of file? In the past I just went w/ Mp3 encoding... I just recently got a new Mp3 player and have been researching the different file formats. I've been reading that AAC is actually better than MP3 so I thought I'd check it out. My problem or Question... The SonicStage...

I had been planning on buying a Shinybox 46 ribbon. With the group buy going on... I'm considering the ACM-3 instead. Forget the difference in price... Which one do you think would be most usefull and more of a keeper? Rather than "Check out this Ribbon Mic I got super cheap". I've read many...
