Exactly what I thought all along. The post I read (on a different forum) kind of threw me off-course for a lil bit. Back on track now. Preciate the feedback.

Okay here's the deal, I made a promise to myself not to make any music in my room until I treated it. So I was familiarizing myself with what I needed and I came across a post somewhere warning of the folly of doing acoustic treatment without measuring the acoustics of the room first to know...

hehehe...roger that Glen! Thanks for the help everyone.

Yeah that's what I have been doing. Just looking for other maybe less time-consuming options.

Thanks. Reason why I was considering hardware compression is I wanted to be able to compress on the way in and SEE (not just hear) the results. I am using logic and the comp plugs are channel strip inserts so you don't really SEE the changes in the wave-form as you compress. Gotta admit that...

To my understanding, a hardware compressor should fall in-between the pre and converter in a recording signal chain in that order (pre-->compressor-->converter). True? So how exactly do you incorporate a compressor in a signal chain that has an audio interface which does not give you the luxury...

I use this in my studio. It is supposed to provide "clean power" to your gear among other things. At first I did not know what the heck "clean power" meant and I thought It was just a sales gimmick. Until I started adding more gear to my set-up and I got introduced to a new enemy of progress...

If I understood you correctly, I need to get two of these to cater to both the ins and outs on my interface, is that right? From the picture, I see the unit has two channels with two ins and two outs. Will I need a second unit in this case? I could be having this all screwed up in my mind...

Solid information so far...greatly appreciated. I have finally been able to trace the noise down to the USB connection between the motif and the computer. I get no noise at all through my audio cables from the motif to the duet interface. As soon as I plug the USB cable into any USB port on the...

I was coming out of the motif on a balanced 1/4 inch but an apogee tech I spoke to recommended I use unbalanced 1/4 inch from the motif to XLR going into the duet (the outputs on the motif are unbalanced anyway). Thanks for that link. Looks like a thorough write-up. Will get to it when I get home.

I am having a grounding noise problem with my motif ES Keyboard going into an apogee duet that just won't go away. I have tried different remedies and now I am considering what many consider the last resort; getting a three to two prong grounding adapter. I know many people use them (otherwise...

Interesting thread... curious to know what the more experienced guys on here have to say...

What do you guys think about the bass in this track and specifically how it was achieved? http://soundcloud.com/studio-guy/stl-biashara

Thanks! So this "digital meter", does it have a specific name? Just so that i can cut down on the time I spend walking up and down the aisles...

How do you tell you need a dehumidifier? My studio is a former garage, and most of it is below ground level and adjacent to the basement. I haven't noticed anything unusual as far as wetness or anything. Is it supposed to be obvious or is there a chance that I might have a humidity problem that...
