    Syncing Audio from Pro Tools with seperate video footage

    I wasn't sure where to put this but basically I would like to record video footage of me playing some songs to upload onto youtube, however the only video recording device I have is my digital camera and the microphone on it to say the least, is not so good... I have Pro tools and have access...

    Feedback on some songs please :)

    Sup guys, not been on here in a while, I recorded a couple of songs over summer just for a project. I'm still a bit of a nube with recording but I'd really appreciate it if I could get some feedback from you guys on the songs and quality. I'm mixing a third one to put on at the moment. Cheers...

    SM7B Making Buzzing Noise

    So I've had this SM7B a few weeks now, and have just started using it. I picked it up second hand off of ebay. And for some reason it keeps making this kind of buzzing hissing sound. It will be completely silent until the gain is turned up to about three quarters on my 002 Rack and after this...

    Good external hard drive for recording?

    So I'm thinking of buying an external hard drive for my Mac Mini to record onto. I already have a 500gb one that's USB but it's a bit slow being USB and I can't seem to record from it. Says the volume isn't set as an audio-able device or something? So what do I need to take into consideration...

    Installing Pro Tools 8

    I'm a bit confused, it's probably obvious. But if I get Pro Tools 8, do I have to have an old version installed before hand? as it is labeled as an upgrade? I have Pro Tools 7 but it isn't installed at the moment, but would I have to get 7.4 then buy 8? Or can I just install it from scratch on...

    Pro Tools 8 wont work!

    Just installed Pro Tools 8 on my desktop computer, running it with XP 32 bit Pro. And every time I try to open it it just comes up with the error: "The application failed to initialize properly (0xc000001d). Click on OK to terminate the application" I can't find a solution anywhere :mad: Does...

    SHUT UP Computer!!

    I have quite an old desktop computer, unfortunately I can't afford a nice expensive quiet Mac to record with. The thing is it makes quite a lot of noise, not a terrible amount. But noisy enough so that my mics do pick up the fan noise? is that what it is? :confused: And I only have one room to...

    Digi 002 enough gain for SM7b?

    Would a Digi 002 rack have enough gain to be used with an SM7b so that it sounds clean and powerful?

    Why does D.I sound so bad?

    Why does recording through D.I sound so bad? Heres the thing, I have this nice Seagul acoustic and I was experimenting to see how good I could make it sound without mics. When so I plugged it into my Mbox 2, and recorded. And it just sounds so bright and seems to lose a lot its detail and...

    Recording Acoustic guitar dilemma

    Alright peeps, Here's the situation, I know this has been discussed quite often. But I'm having trouble trying to decide on what mics to get for recording my acoustic guitar. I've decided on a SM7b for my vocals, as this will also help eliminate the bleed from the acoustic plus in general it...

    Shure SM7b

    So what do people think of this microphone? before I go ahead and buy it. I've heard good things about it so far, and it seems amazingly cheap for all of the famous records that it has been used on. I want to use it mainly for vocals, whilst recording acoustic guitar at the same time for...

    Large Condensor for Acoustic Guitar

    Alright guys, I'm looking for an upgrade on my AKG Perception 220, I want it to be used mainly for acoustic guitar and perhaps a few other instruments. But I really want something that will pick up a lot of detail from my acoustic guitar, as it is expensive and I want it to be one of the main...

    Need a Preamp with S/PDIF for Mbox 2

    Hey guys, I'm using an Mbox 2 with Pro Tools LE and I really need more inputs than just two. Now the only way I can do this really, is to either buy a Digi 002 rack/mixer or an 003 etc, but they are really expensive even on eBay second hand. Well they are in the U.K. anyway. So I think my...
