Here's a link... These mics look familiar to anyone? I wanna know what they are a copy of... The price is nice...

I have a project coming up in which I'll be working with jazz-players, and I'll be doing electronics; which means, programming the beats, soundscapes, ...... Now I was wondering, I'm not all that familiar with sequencing software, but I understand that most of it is pattern based, and the live...

Seems that there's alot of new stuff for laptop recording... The RME is -as far as I know- the only one that already earned it's fame. The others are either new, or USB-interfaces with a small number of inputs/outputs. All the brands seem to jump on the bandwagon these days. Edirol has just...

This is a link to an anti-war animation, actually, its about Dutch politics on the matter. The animation is by a Belgian dude that was contacted by some organisation that organized euhm something in Amsterdam. He asked Jan (a jazz guitarplayer studying at my school), and Jan asked me to help...

I'm thinking about buying a laptop. But I have to decide before wednesday. So what are the options? The laptop I'm considering has firewire and 3 USB 2.0 ports. I need 2 channel digital audio in/out, preferably optical SPDIF (for transfering audio between my VS1880 and the laptop) and 2...

or the other way around. :D I'm having this girl downloading the protools free-thingy, cause I really don't have any software for it. And since we're using that in school to record with, and syncronize it, I thought, well.... So, can I use protools free to record midi-tracks using a...

How do you do that? In our youthclub, we have 4 speakers that are defect. Either no highs (tweeter cooked), no lows (speaker), or no sound at all (euhm... I'm guessing the cable :D ). So how do you go when testing them for ordering new parts? I can try them seperately, just connect one...

I did another mixing gig last friday. The setup sounded pretty ok, I liked the way it sounded. Maybe a little too transparant sound, but it was better as most setups I play with. Then I got to the desk. Behringer Eurodesk 24/40 or whatever the number is. Don't like it, but you gotta work with...

I'd like to have a cheap midi interface, that I can take along with my keyboard. Just something small, like the Midiman midisport 1x1 (or 2x2, price difference is too small to go for the smaller version, I guess...), that I can take along wherever I go, to just hook up my keyboard to any pc...

I want to upgrade my pc. I'm currently running an intel celeron 300 or something, 32 Mb, and a 6 gig HD. I'm planning on using it for euhm... what do I know. Anything, really. I don't have a big budget, say about 300Euros. Here's an online shop, right next to my place, and pretty cheap. That's...

Where do I start? I want to play the moody dark slower drunk stuff. Think tom waits. I understand all chord symbols, and can play a progression, just need to get that bluesy feel in I guess. I could start just fooling around on my own, but I'm too lazy for that. Most of my books on...

I was just looking around on some German online store, and found a load of cheap mics. The brand name is t.bone? I haven't seen the brandname anywhere else here in europe, so I guess it's kindof a home-brand of the shop. So, what are they copies/relabelled versions of? Anyone an idea? Here's a...

What's the cheapest digital soundcard? If it has midi that's a big bonus. I wanna sync my VS1880 with my pc and digitally bounce tracks back and forth...

On friday and saturday, some of my friends have this kind of funny thing going on. They do 2 gigs, dressed up like rappers, and rapping funny extremely naughty lyrics. They got about 5 songs. One is made with sampler and sequencer, one is a commercial tune without the vocal track, and the others...

I was wondering. If I wanted to have 16 tracks, which way would I go? Most *big* cards have 8 inputs/outputs. So I guess you'd need 2 cards... Which way would you go? Price is always something to keep in mind, ofcourse...
