My son likes to compose on Sibelius, but for some reason the sound does not work in Sibelius after I've been using Cubase. When I go back to Cubase from Sibelius, I sometimes need to switch ASIO drivers and things will work after a re-start or two. The reverse is not true of Sibelius. I...

Nameless by John Spignesi Band on Spotify I'm pretty happy with how things turned out. The link takes you to John Spignesi Band's 5 song EP "Nameless," an adaptation of Edgar Allan Poe's 'The Raven.' I shortened the poem one evening in September and John immediately wrote music. We tracked...

Take me back to the good old days when photobucket wasn’t trash and homerecording.com was the funniest place on the Internet

I've just gotten my studio up and mostly running again and have found that none of my Audio Plugins seem to pass audio through when I hit "preview." The preview button changes and I can stop it, but no sound of (for example, the fade-in or fade-out) is audible. I'm fairly certain this was...

A Sweetwater review said that the new MOTU had better preamps than the Presonus. I always liked the Presonus pres in my Firepod and my Firestudio 26x26, and so am not automatically convinced by the review. I'm looking at going USB 2.0 now that my Old presonus is a bit fried. Anyone have...

Edit: Meh. I got it to work, but not until after I bought a new interface. But it's a pretty sweet interface!

Sold a guitar today and turned it into an investment into Vegas 13. My church's minister of music wanted to record our Holtkamp organ for the AGO and we set up a camcorder and a DSLR and got some film. The organ blew away the DSLR's mics, but I got listenable audio from the little camcorder...

Had a heck of a time trying to burn copies of a family Christmas album we recorded with the kids and my sister to CD on my windows machine. The only thing I could eventually get to work was to export audio mix down as mp3, and then burn them to the CD using windows media player to re convert...

Zero Latency Monitoring Setup - Firestudio 26x26 My monitoring needs outgrew my Firepod -- which never otherwise let me down -- and picked up a Firestudio 26x26 on craigslist. The control software allows me to set up all the routing within the rack unit itself. The settings get stored in...

I realized that I could move my cpu tower away from my desk and create a sort of secondary mix position / digital mixer control position. This way, the main stage piano/ midi setup can remain in the back of the studio where everything else is set up in a basic band arrangement! The computer is...

I was reading the old SOS review of the powered avantone mix cubes and it occurred to me that a sufficiently accurate pitch shift applied to a mix might help identify mixing and balance errors due to nodes and other gremlins in the room and the monitors, etc. You would be, in effect, altering...

I've only used them once, as an input for my former band's guitar player's multi effects pedal. It was nice to have 10 inputs to record live. We had a lot of success in those sessions. SPDIF seems to be a bit outdated now, so I'm sure there are some cool things out there that I could snap up...
