I have Dell Inspiron laptop with the built-in SigmaTel sound card (I have the latest WDM drivers installed). Reason will not even start on this machine - has anyone had experience with this? Reason works just fine on my studio computer, but I just can't get it to work on this laptop. Any help...

I need a remote for the Tascam MS-16. I believe the model # is AQ-65 Please let me know if anyone has one or knows where I can find one. Thanks

Anyone have any experience doing sound for video/short film? I have a commercial studio and some friends of mine are doing a short film. Next thing I know I'm the audio engineer. It will be shot on a fairly high-end DV camera and all editing will be done on computer. I really have no...

Hopefully this is a really stupid question: I'm using Rewire in Reason 2.5 to sync up with Nuendo. I have been tracking rythm guitars/bass for a couple of days in Nuendo and decided to drop a synth part in Reason, but alas - the part was out of tune. I mean WAY out of tune. For some reason...

Looking for at least an 8 channel interface, i've got my heart set on the MOTU, but i'm open to other possibilites...

i have a tascam 688 machine that is in near-perfect condition that i am just about ready to get rid of. (i say near-perfect because the meter for track 8 only works when recording, not on playback - but the track works fine otherwise) i am asking $500 (this price includes a custom-fit...

ok everybody, a local band here in new orleans that i've been friends with for a while finished their cd. it was recorded at my friend's studio which will remain nameless until we've gathered adequate results... here are two mixes straight outta the studio (unmastered). what do you guys...

i will soon be in the market for a new desk and was wondering if anyone has any experience with the tascam m-2516. it caught my eye on ebay - seems like i could get one pretty cheap. any thoughts/suggestions? before i saw this board, i was leaning towards a mackie 16 - 8. comparisons...

...i'm thinking about upgrading to 16 track 1" & a new board. for years i have been using a tascam 688 8 track and have been spoiled by the fact that the unit is all-inclusive. i have seen many great reviews of the mackie 1604vlz pro on this forum, but doesn't it lack tape returns? and it...

i'm not sure if this is the place to post this particular question, but if anyone can help me i would appreciate it... i work at a computer repair shop and a customer who is visually impaired has charged us with finding a way for him to view sheet music on his pc in large print and high...

my live rig consists of a mesa/boogie "studio pre" preamp running into a mesa 20/20 power amp. now my power amp has a bad output transformer and is in the shop and i just found out i have a gig tomorrow night - i have arranged to use someone else's amp, but its a marshall valvestate...

can anyone recommend a decent parametric eq for a mobile studio on a budget? under $200 if possible? i know you guys hate behringer, but what sparked this is that i saw a behringer ultra-q for like $80 on ebay. worth it? i have a behringer autocom, and although the "auto" mode sucks, it is...

i am currently recording on a tascam 688 cassette 8 track. although i love the way it sounds and i love its features, i dont know if i want to put anymore money into it (it is in need of some repair). since i'm finally making some money recording (woohoo!), i'm thinking about selling it and...

hey everyone, heres the deal: (by the way i'm recording on a tascam 688) i only have one compressor and i need to compress three tracks on a recording i'm working on. the bass drum, bass guitar, and lead guitar. i have concluded (duh) that the only way to do this is to bounce each track...
