looking hard at the SM7, all the reviews make me think this would work precisely for the particular problems i am experiencing with my current mic, anyways, i have read where people are recommending a nice preamp to go along with it.........so is that accurate? I am using an Apogee Duet into...

i've read i think a couple times that the duet does not have separate output controls, so the headphones and your monitors are gonna be linked in volume, this sounds impossible for such a piece of equipment, makes it only possible to track vocals or anything with your mic if you actually turn...

i just read a review on amazon, it says that there is not independent monitoring level between the output and your headphones????? So you are telling me dude, that when i want to record into my mic, i obviously will turn my monitors down, but if i do that my headphones will be turned down...

alright so i'm using iMac with Logic Pro 8, got a cheaper mic but will be using soon MXL 4000, so i need a better audio device. I got the M-Audio FastTrack Pro right now. I'm looking for better pres, and better converters. I guess i just don't like the sound quality i get. My boy has got a...

i am looking at several new DAW software to use for a Mac setup, i previously used sonar PE7 and love it, but my old pc didn't support it well (too slow), i'm now getting a mac and have been trying out several different apps such as logic pro and pro tools and have found both to be soooo...

how are the effects processors and whatnot, such as reverb, eq, compression, limiters, chorus, etc. and is there support for any 3rd party plugs and such, if the audio processing aspect is the same as Logic Pro and i'm only missing some of the music composition aspect, then i'ma go with...

I am very limited on what i need for a DAW, i don't need ANY sort of music production tools, such as synths and samplers and the like, i only need to be able to do tracking, mixing and post production. Right now i use Sonar PE7, but am switching to a Mac, prolly an iMac, and am ditching windows...

i am looking at going from PC setup to straight Mac, current setup, P4 3.0Ghz, 1G Ram, XP SP3, yada yada M-audio Fast Track Pro software: Sonar PE7, Reason 3 eventual setup, iMac 24 inch, 2.8 Ghz Intel core 2 duo ??????????? so i'm getting an iMac, I want to ditch the fast track pro even...

Soundcard/Interface: M-Audio Fast Track Pro PC: Dell Inspiron 9100, Intel Pentium 4 3.0Ghz, 1 MB RAM, Windows XP Home SP3 Programs: Sonar PE7, Reason 3.0, Okay so I have been using sonar and reason, usually rewiring reason through sonar as a synth device. I have been tracking and mixing this...

can someone explain to me what the difference in the two are, in what situations or applications do you use each

I just got one of these and have it connected to my Fast Track Pro, i am using an MXL V63M mic, i have to say that i can not get a louder signal to my comp, without adding the same amount of noise, i try to track at around -12 to -18 dBFS, Increasing the gain on the VTB1 or the Fast Track Pro...

what's the diff, they seem to be equal in most specs like sensitivity and S/N ratio, is this just a matter of preference, I have the V63M, it does pretty good, i would like something a little more clear, the highs can get a little muddled it seems, my friend has the 4000, haven't had a chance to...

I am hearing "sits" alot after reading many threads around here as well as articles around the net. What exactly are we speaking about when we say "sits", as well as dynamic range. My mixes due to shitty monitoring situation till of late, all seem super flat, as if, everything sat on the...

I just bought a Studio Projects VTB-1 mic preamp thinking it would help allow me to lower my gain levels on my Fast Track Pro and still get a loud enough signal without picking up tons of background "static", i plugged this sucker in, and it's pretty much the same deal, if it is low enough to...

it seems like the only way i can get my levels up to around 0db when recording vocals is by turning it up to the point where it records a lot of static too, what am i doing wrong
