I've recently been introduced to the world of virtual drums. I downloaded MT Power Kit 2 and have been using just the stock sounds. I'm quite impressed with these samples but I'm fairly new to midi files and virtual drums, I've really enjoyed being able to use my electric drums as a midi...

I just came across this website: Home / Joey Sturgis Tones But I'm curious as to what these are exactly. Are these VST amp simulations or what is their application?

Im running cubase 5 on my laptop with a presonus vsl44. My vsl has 4 outs and i have 4 separate tracks running within cubase(each track is assigned to its own out). This is for live settings, backtracks, click tracks etc. My major issue with this is that my playback will cutout quite often, the...

I've been having an issue with this for live settings. Basically I'm running Cubase 5 on a laptop with a Presonus VSL44. I use this live so I can play 4 separate tracks simultaneously. It all runs fine, but there will be moments while playing that all the audio cuts out. The song doesn't freeze...

I had posted a thread a few days ago but realized I wasn't really asking the right question(atleast not clearly). I'm not sure how to delete that thread so I'll try again. I'm looking for a way to play 4 separate MP3's or tracks at the same time. I had bought a Focusrite 2i/4o usb interface...

Good morning, I'm looking for some insight in regards to any standalone interfaces that are able to play back 4 separate outputs simultaneously. We use backing tracks for live shows but we're needing more than just the tracks(left) and click track(right). I bought a small interface to use with...

Good evening, It's been awhile since I've been on here, and I'm not sure why I've been absent, I love it here. Anyways, I'm going to ask a question that I'm sure you've answered before, however my searches haven't exactly answered them all. I got myself 2 SM57's, based on a number of reviews...

Greetings, I'm not sure where to post this, I am still a newb so here it is. I bought a drum module off of ebay(untested, sold as is) I knew while getting into it that there was a risk that it would be DOA. To my surprise it powered up right away but when I went to test it, it was extremely...

I did the tracking for this song and sent the OMF to an engineer in a nearby city who mixed and mastered the track for $30. Was it worth $30? Take a gander! http://soundcloud.com/vesselsofveritas/this-orange-is-red myspace.com/vesselsofveritas

Luck struck me a few months ago when I posted a rough mix of my band on our myspace. An audio engineer from a nearby city caught wind of it and offered to mix and master the track for us. We're in the process of recording a 5 song EP and further discussed and concluded that he would mix and...

I'm working on recording some drum tracks right now but I'm having a hard time hearing the recorded guitars and click track because my drums are being sent into my monitors. I'm using Cubase 5 with a Presonus firestudio project and I can't figure out how to keep whats being recorded out of my...

I play to a click track with my band from an iPod. We have some backing tracks as well playing through the iPod(Tracks panned left, clicks panned right). We've recently written some new material and I'm having a hard time getting whats being panned left staying 100% in the left and vise versa...

If I export an audio file in WAV. via Cubase and import it back into Cubase, it sounds fine. If I export an audio file in WAV. from Fruity Loops, then import it into Cubase, the audio file is super slow, I'd bet half time. What's the deal?

I'm recording my bands EP(electronica Hardcore) we've got 5 songs going on the CD one of which is a light, slow song. I've recorded our 4 other heavier ones with no issues that I could tell with the guitar tone until last night. Our guitarist was over and I recorded his tracks for our slow...

I've been researching lately on the best way to record 'heavy metal' guitar. I've been experimenting with different mics and placements but still need guidance. In my latest research I've been looking into double micing. I read one suggestion saying to put a condenser mic 12-15 inches from the...
