I recently got a motu 828 firewire(original unit) and gateway laptop unit 1-2 weeks ago so I could go out and record bands outside my project room. I'm currently unable to resolve problems with playback and record. The card skips/pauses intermitently when playing back say a mp3 file in...

Not too long ago I finish building my first acoustically design mixing room and recently got my spl meters in the mail a week ago and I finally have got a chance calibrate it. My set up is basically a sound card -> mixing board -> power monitors I know from what I read in Bob Katz "Mastering...

I've been running fruity loops 3.56 as a vsti via cubase vst/32 and I have had no problems with it for years. So I decided to upgrade to FL Studio 6 pro to advantage of all the new features it has to offer. But some how I've ran into a problem with this new version of FL studio. Where if I...

I recently notice that I'm having to turn up the volume alot more to hear anything. My wife complaints all the time that I listen to TV and Music way to loud and details seem more difficult to discern. Q-tips don't seem to be cutting it anymore. Have I lost my hearing or do I just need a pro to...

Reverse Noise Gate I search for this for about half hour, but I can't find anything about it relavent to my cause. Does anyone know of a vst plugin noise gate that works in reverse. Meaning instead of cutting off sound that dips below the threshold. It would chop off sounds from above the...

Do you guys have a preconceived notion of what music should sound like? I feel as though I'm flowing in hot water here, but what I'm trying to say is do you feel that when you are placing tracks are you trying to notch them specific area or are trying to more creative and randomly place sound...

I'm starting to think mixing and mastering is a farse. I don't think you can just mix anything you want together and no amount of mixing is going to fix a problem with sounds that don't work together. I work on a lot of stuff since I've got into doing computer all the way back to 1992. Since...

RE: Vst Plugins I download the SDK for Steinberg a few months ago and I've look at briefly from time to time. I would seem like and an easy thing to do assumming if I was a really good programmer. I was just wondering if anyone has made they own vst plugin. If so, how hard was it.

I was hoping maybe someone here could help me with a cubase vst/32 problem. For some reason my AudioMix is not working properly and the problem is with this one song I'm working on. On all my other songs in my computer it will work fine, but for some reason AudioMix will not record any of my...
