    New Mackie Onyx 1640 w/ Firewire Card

    This is a brand new mixer, but the firewire card is a year old. Both in perfect condition. There's a full warranty on the mixer, and the firewire card has 2 years left on the limited warranty. You'll get all the accessories (15 ft. firewire cable, rackears, the two different power cables...

    Like the Echo AudioFire12's clock?

    About to buy one, but I was wondering if those that have them like the word clock?

    XLR Output to another preamp?

    I may be thinking to much into this but my API 3124+ only has XLR outputs, if I take those outputs and send them through my Onyx 1640 (via the Onyx preamps) won't that defeat the purpose of having the API preamps? If you take this kind of idea of "good" vs "bad" preamps...

    Just a little video of Cash and Dylan

    Hey, I found this on google videos. I like to see videos of bands in studios, it's just fun for me to watch. So, here's a video, maybe next time you are going for that sound you'll try this mic set up. :) Dylan and Cash

    Producers

    I am not a fan of the title, unless it's rightfully earned. I was wondering what you guys think about the title. I get annoyed by the people that say they are "Premeir(sic) up and coming producers in (insert city)." Even though they just recorded a friend's band and their band one time on a...

    Speck 5.0 vs API 3124

    I really want a Speck 5.0, but I need at least 2 channels, so 2 questions here: It's possible for me to spend a lot more and get an API 3124, but I question whether it's a good investment, or if that extra $1625 would be better spend elsewhere. So if in this position, would you shell out the...

    Piano Mechanical Noise.

    I just recorded a wonderful sounding Steinway Grand piano. Luckily, it was also with a great player. One problem I never thought of though: How to address mechanical sounds! For one, whenever the pedal is let up it makes a slight thud, that can be brought down with practice, but not right on...

    Timbre or more?

    I couldn't decide where this should go...so I'll put it here, people sing in mics, right? ;) I was just thinking about pop music singer and I guess just singers in general and came to the idea that singers don't necessarily have to be great at singing (hitting notes) but just have to have a...

    New song written and recorded this evening.

    Hey guys, I just wrote a song that I like. It's a bit rough in spots and could use some polish here and there. Anyway, if you could give it a quick listen and let me know what you think of the mix, that'd be cool. Thanks. http://www.soundclick.com/bands/pageartist.cfm?bandID=639361

    Crackling Pickup?

    Hey guys, I just bought a Mexican Telecaster at Guitar Center and started playing it a bit and it seems something's wrong with the pickup nearest the neck, it's all crackly. I'm not much of a guitar player, but I fell in love with the tele's sound so I had to buy one. In the file, I start with...

    Echo or Delta1010?

    I'm debating between 2 or 3 Delta 1010s, or 1 or 2 Echo AudioFire 12's. Now if I decide I want 24 channels, I'll need 3 Deltas and 2 AudioFires. I realize that the Deltas would be cheaper so I am wondering what other people think. For quality purposes and ease-of-use, would the AudioFire be...

    Mackie 8 bus and Delta 1010

    I have been thinking of the best way to incorporate the Mackie 8 bus, which I have wanted for a while, into my DAW. Do you guys think I should use a 24 track digital recorder, or 3 Delta 1010s? Do the 1010s, or just having 3 of them working at once, create latency issues that anyone has...

    DAW vs Classic Reel to Reel, Bitter?

    I was just reading on another thread about "Flying in" which preceeded the clever banter and I got to thinking: Are you more analog guys that record to tape bitter about the guys using DAWs and hard drives to record? I know DAWs have made things a lot easier, and I feel bad that I didn't have...

    Weird waveform

    I just got a Presonus Bluetube to mess around with and I've two questions. 1: When I use the balanced output to my Mackie Onyx 1640's line in on a channel, my mono track looks weird. When looking at the track it has a line down the middle, horizontally, the wave form though is all off...

    Flip That House?

    Anybody watch Flip That House? Well in tonights episode that I saw, they were flipping a house that had squaters in it for a while so it was very messy, but there were a few shots where it's obvious the house had a studio. In the background a few times you can see a big mixer in the...
