Its a rare occasion that I'll track and mix other bands music. Unfortunately, I have this mix to do of a band that 1) is not that good, and 2) I can't stand their music. (Mostly, they're not that good because I can't stand their music.) I am used to "dynamic" type music, thus I enjoy the...

When mixing songs, everything sounds great using Tannoy near-field monitors. However, when I burn a sample CD of the mix, the songs contain way too much low frequency (kick drum, low toms, and bass guitar). I have adjusted the mix by bringing down the faders on the bass drum, toms, and bass...

I decided to get away from multi-track cards for awhile because this standard-less technology isn't really quite ready yet for Intel-based PC systems (or vice versa) without having to spend gobs of cash on a "file server" quality PC's. Maybe in a year or two we'll have some standard and stable...

Well, I purchased the MOTU 2408mkII. 24 in and out. The thing works great so far, just an adat sync issue with n-track remains to be solved. I can move all 16 channels from my adat's and use the 8 analog group outs from my 24-channel tascam analog mixer. Its a cabling nightmare, but I have...

I just bought a MOTU2408mkII. I am able to record 16-tracks at once from my ADAT's using n-Track. That works great. However, I can't find a way to sync n-Track to the MOTU/ADATs. The MOTU connects the sync to the ADAT's. Its manual says that "CUBASE (or any other ASIO 2.0 compatible software)"...

I need to add another hard drive to my PIII 866Mhz. I need the potential to move 16-tracks at a time from ADATs'. What is better for audio (16+ tracks)? FireWire, IDE, or expensive SCSI? FireWire is rated at 400MB/s transfer rate but slower access times around 8ms. SCSI is fast at 7200/10K...

Does anyone have any detailed opinions on the MOTU 2408mkII? I am trying to decide whether to replace/upgrade my current 16-track blackface ADAT/Analog Mixer system and add-on an interface to my PC (866Mhz/128MB RAM/40 GB ATA100). I am thinking about tracking on the ADAT's and mixing those...

I am looking to replace my current ADAT/Analog system with a PC-based system. Currently, I have 2 ADAT's, a bulky Tascam M2600 24-channel analog mixer, Alesis RA100 power amp,Tannoy near field monitors, a few outboard effects devices. My software development computer is an 866Mhz, 128MB RAM...

I have two ADAT Blackface units. I purchased ADAT/Edit to transfer tracks from the ADAT to my PC for subsequent mixing using n-Track software. Unfortunately, ADAT/Edit does not work properly with my system (866Mhz,128MB RAM, 40GB ATA100 hard drive) and/or older ADAT's. I receive pops and...
