Hopefully I will get out of the newbie section eventually... I need to buy some decent monitors for mixing. I have the MAudio Omni-Studio (omni breakout box + Delta 66). I read the manual and notice their are 2 sets of outputs for monitoring, one is record out and the other monitor out. The...

Is there a software/hardware package that allows you to control playback and record start/stop/rewind etc by a footswitch? I find it a pain to have to: - click record - get my hands on the guitar, - play, - screw up because I didn't get my hands ready in time - reach for the mouse - click...

I'm posting this in newbie instead of n-tracks or guitar forums because I am a newbie. :) I tried recording some crunchy metal guitar sounds in 2 ways through my delta 66 card and omni IO box. 1) using my Korg Toneworks Pandora 4's stereo headphone output into an input jack of the omni. I...

I was reading the specs on the Echo Mia sound card and it says the 1/4 inch jacks are balanced analog input. What does this mean? What is the alternative, unbalanced? Why is balanced good? How do I connect my guitars to those balanced analog jacks to get the best use of them? Thanks! Sorry for...

I play guitar and bass and like to record everything from slow accoustical folk to grinding heavy metal. The problem is, I am not a drummer and don't know any drummers. :( Although, I have a simple Gretsch set, I am not skilled enough to come close to matching my guitar playing, nor could I mic...

Hello. I'm new to home recording, but am looking forward to learning and getting equipped with some decent software and hardware. I currently use Cakewalk Guitar software (8-tracks) and my Sound Blaster Live! Value (Valueless?) that came with my Dell (not built in). First, the version of my...
