Hello, I'm a songwriter and I'm trying to find some new outlets for songs. I was wondering if anybody had any good clues as to where I can find people who need songs written. I will write anything in any style, long, short, pop, country, hard rock, reggae, whatever. I'm trying to pay for...

Alright. So i've got this song...and a pretty strong recording of it. The only thing it's lacking is this hand drum part that i can't seem to get right. I've tried it a thousand times and i just can't seem to get it. Now i know that there is a way in DP to quantize audio with DP's beat detection...

Alright so I understand that bouncing tracks is simply mixing them down to one track and saving it as a single .aiff or .wav file. So I see where this apply's when you're finished mixing a song and you want to put it on a cd and pop it into a couple different stereo's. But here's my real...

Alright so this is the final design of my studio. I understand that it's far too small and my modes will be a little wierd and all that jazz. It's the best I could get. So now I have to maximize my space and get it sounding as good as possible. If anybody is up to it. I need to figure out where...

Question 1: I am days away from beginning construction on my studio and the way it seems the room is going to work out is that it will be about 12ft by 16ft with 8ft ceilings. The only problem is that in a couple parts of the ceiling we will have to build around an existing sofet...

I'm building a studio in my garage it's one room about 14 by 23 feet with 9-10 foot ceilings...I'm not floating the floor because it's far to compicated and far too expensive...I want to put in laminate hard wood flooring A. cause it looks nice b. Cause it will hopefully give my room some...

So ok...I my signal chain is like this mic>analogmixer>828mkII>DP4.5 while tracking. I just wanted to know if because the 828mkII has both A/D AND D/A conversion on their 10 anolog I/O's does that mean that when I want to mix a song I will be able to send the tracks back out to my mixer and use...

Hey guys I am looking at buying a rack for my 828mkII and other rackmountable items I will be buying in the future...i found this really simple looking rack on ebay but it looks like it might be really flimsy. It also looks like it might work perfectly if I was going to build a desk for my...

Hello everyone, I think that I may have been able to squeeze a few extra feet out of my parents to build this studio (including provisions to alter it in years to come...you'll see what I mean). I feel like I'm getting closer to my final design so I'm getting excited. Sorry it's kind of...

Alright so here's the deal. I have a MOTU 828mkII and an apple G4 1.3 GH with 768 RAM on a DP 4.5 platform. Ok so I have been under the impression that I will need to purchase a mixer ESPECIALLY if I want to record a whole band. I was just reading about working with the 828 and a mixer. The...

Hey guys, I'm selling my acoustic amp because it's a lot more power than I need at the moment and I need the money. This amp has under three hours of use and is in perfect working order. The only thing that isn't mint is there is a small section on the front grill about the size of a small...

I found a pair of KRK V6's on Ebay...they had a buy it now at $499. They don't look like the regular V6 series 2 monitors though they say they are b-stock. The woofer isn't yellow like the regular ones, they are black, that's the only difference I can see in them. I'm still confused though. Are...

I am building a studio in my garage which has a concrete floor. I have not been able to find any information about what kind of floor to build on top of the concrete. Does it even matter? There is nothing below the garage except dirt. Will the design of the floor need to be different in the...

I am running Digital Performer 4.5 on my Apple Aluminum Powerbook with a MOTU 828MKII. I am recording drums and acoustic guitar, vocals. Pretty much a full band environment...some MIDI as well. I was wondering if a mixer would help my sound. If so what mixer? I was looking at the Mackie 1642vlz...
